Housemates tumbled slowly out of bed this morning, trying their best to delay the inevitable: tonight’s eviction. JJ, Laveda, M’am Bea and Kacey Moore made their way to the kitchen to clean up the previous night’s mess. Idris and Ellah, meanwhile, got very comfortable with one another curling up together in bed, but not before Idris had clambered on top of the lovely Ugandan lady in order to give her a massage.

Preparations for evction night started in earnest with the nominees heading to Biggie’s pseudo hair salon set up in the garden. Laveda, Tayo, Permithias, Lilian, Frankie, Sabina, Esther and JJ got their moment in the sun, quite literally, as they sunned themselves while getting their hair done. Ellah, unaware of her nomination by Head of House Samantha, stayed in bed. However, she soon got busy, pampering the men in the bedroom with manicures, and then setting to work painting Butterphly's nails. 

There is an expectant air in the house, with everyone waiting in anticipation to see who will go home tonight. The bigger concern for most housemates, however, is whether or not they have been nominated by Samantha. Conversation outside quickly turned to the topic of who the ninth nominee might be.

After two weeks in the house, true colours are starting to show and masks are being dropped. In addition, the food blow-up the night before was proof of frayed nerves. What will tonight’s eviction do to the mood in the house and the relationships that have developed? Fans are divided, keen to see housemates leave, while desperately hoping their favourites will stay. Who will stay and who will go? Make sure you watch tonight to find out!
