Day 7 Too many Chiefs?
I was up into the early hours watching the post nomination fall out. I desperately needed sleep but just couldn't tear myself away until my laptop made the decision to hibernate due to low battery.

Craig did himself no favours at all by moaning about how everyone shuns him, hates him, is rude to him. I heard him trip out the same self pitying speech several times...not very attractive. He really needs to find a more positive slant on this or he is out on Friday.

Then Mary started her- I'm the most intelligent/genuine person in this house- rubbish. She was obviously very cross at having been put up for eviction and saw fit to start accusing everyone of being fake. I think there is a touch of projection going on there with Mary being one of the most affected HMs in the house. It was interesting to see that she forgot to do the intense stare and eye rolling thing that she's been affecting ever since she entered the house. Fake? Real? It's a tv game show for goodness sake!

Cut to Roberto and Science arguing in the kitchen. It was hilarious...pure comedy. At one point, Science was heard to say something like, "You were disrespecting my chicken." It couldn't get any better.

Cut to Maxwell having a go at Kemal...it was hard to tell what they were really arguing about but it seemed entirely pointless and trivial. Kemal followed Maxwell into the bedroom to carry on the argument and it ended with Maxwell doing some very loud, intimidating shouting before the camera cut away, probably worried that something very unpleasant was going to happen. It was as close to physical violence as I have seen.

More of Craig moaning, Lesley arguing with someone or other and I was beginning to lose the will to live.

They can't possibly keep up this level of confrontation. I hope it's just a matter of jostling for position before they settle finally into their respective cliques or the house is going to burn up the the flames of so many raging egos. Last year we saw two well defined groups emerge, leaving a centre ground for the floaters. I don't see that happening yet. Are there too many chiefs and not enough indians in the house? Time will tell.
