BigBrother08 / Dan Fitch / 09 July 2009 / 2 Comments

Having fallen foul of Big Brother, Kris faces eviction, along with Charlie, Dogface, Halfwit and Marcus. Dan 'The Betting Man' Fitch expects that the most unpopular man in Britain will receive the most votes.

I haven't been this eager to see the back of a curly haired bloke since Kevin Keegan was England manager.

I'm talking of course about Kris' likely eviction from the Big Brother house. He can be backed at [1.12] to become the latest evictee, having made the unfortunate transformation from being a complete unknown to the most unpopular man in the country, within just over a month.

A combination of Kris' bullying of Freddie and his general arrogance, have been key to this downward trajectory. He now looks very likely to go on Friday, but only because of his own stupidity.

Kris, Sophie and Charlie were all set a task by Big Brother, as punishment for speaking about nominations. They were told that unless they kept completely silent throughout the day, they would face eviction on Friday.

It may sound easy, but this is a generation used to vocalising their every trite observation. The three chatterboxes predictably failed the task and will face eviction along with Freddie and Marcus, who received the most nominations.

What makes it all the funnier, is that Kris clearly believes that he will be popular outside the house, whilst Sophie is under the illusion that she will be evicted, because the female population of Britain will be jealous of her. Kris' curly locks may attract the girls, but then so did Charles Manson's and look how popular he is these days.

Charlie is [130.0] to be evicted, with Sophie [120.0], Freddie [100.0] and Marcus at [10.0]. If he was up against anyone else than Kris this week, then Marcus would be odds on for the push, after he became the latest bloke to make a complete tit of himself, over Noirin.

Actually, I have to say that I feel quite sorry for Marcus. This is a man who this week admitted to owning 2000 action figures, all of which are still in their boxes. This leads me to believe that despite his bravado, he doesn't have that much practical experience with the opposite sex. Well have you ever seen a woman in a branch of Forbidden Planet?

It was no wonder then that he got the wrong idea about Noirin, a woman who thinks that there is no sexual connotation to sitting on a bloke's lap, as long as it's done in exchange for half a can of lager.

The wanton hussy has drifted out to [24.0] to win the show, leaving Sophie a decent bet at [3.3] to be the top female and [19.5] in the winner market, now that she could be rid of the millstone round her neck that is Kris.

Freddie remains the favourite to win at [3.1], though his price did rise during the week, after he got a bit fruity with Charlie. It's probably best to keep an eye on those two and be ready to make some trades to take advantage of Big Brother's clearly homophobic audience.

More likely to get it on though are Charlie and Rodrigo, who are expressing their sexual tension through a series of childish arguments. Only time will tell whether this saga will conclude with a bout of passionate lovemaking or a particularly nasty Chinese burn. Both are priced at [8.8].

My pick Siavash, has now dropped to [4.9], though I'm considering laying off this bet, before it's put to the test whether anyone north of London would be willing to vote for an Iranian bloke that dresses like one of the Pet Shop Boys on tour.

Of the outsiders, Kris is a distant [200.0] with Lisa, an only slightly more popular [48.0]. Karly at [32.0] has ruined any chances she had by continually spouting bile about Freddie, though she has only picked up one nomination thus far. Marcus' grumpy stalker act, has seen his price rise to [38], despite his marvelous diary room moment last weekend when he exposed the hypocrisy of the show.

With this weekend seeing the tenth anniversary of Big Brother, rumours abound that new housemates may be added. This series needs fresh blood more desperately than the black pudding industry, so it's one to keep your eye on.

There's also the rumour that ex-housemates may join the series this week, with the annoying Nikki Grahame expected to feature.

I know, I know... but still, it could be worse. Just be thankful that the most annoying of all the ex-housemates, is guaranteed to not appear.
