The Morning After The Day Before.....
Home > Story Index >Day 38 In The Big Jack Brother House | |||
| 29.06.03 - 9.43am - There is still a feeling of unease in the house after yesterday's close on gang warfare. Leigh and Nick are still not speaking at all whilst Myra is having visions of Leon's North London family coming to sort them all out. Her vision is of an army of small people all coming armed with plastic guns and wearing army hats. (For the older readers remember General Jumbo from the Dandy?) | |||
| 29.06.03 - 11.14am - It's time for the housemates to be set the weekly task. Chances of passing this week look slim unless the housemates can get back on speaking terms. Myra is called to the diary room to receive this week's instructions. | |||
| 29.06.03 - 11.23am - Myra is relaying the task instructions to the rest of the group. This week the group have been asked to put on a play on Wednesday where they have to act out what they see as a typical day at the Vetch Field. Each of them must take one part with two provisos - that they do not play themselves and none of them play one of the other housemates. Big Jack Brother will asses the play once they have acted it out and will then advise how much extra food budget they will get on top of their normal entitlement. A poor play can mean that Big Jack Brother can subtract money from what they have. | |||
| 29.06.03 - 12.17pm - The housemates are deciding who will take which part in the play. Leon Britton is immediately given the part of Brian Flynn as he is the smallest housemate. Leigh Dineen volunteers to take the part of Huw Jenkins and reluctantly the group agree. | |||
| 29.06.03 - 1.37pm - Further parts have been given out in the play. Jason Smith is taking the part of Richie Evans because of his knowledge of all things medical whilst Myra has been given the part of David Morgan because the remaining housemates can see a resemblance there. | |||
| 29.06.03 - 2.12pm - There is some disagreement over the remaining four parts. James Thomas wants to play Alan Curtis as he is a natural Swansea legend but instead is given the part of Reg Pike. Nick Rees is eventually persuaded into the part of Roberto Martinez | |||
| 29.06.03 - 2.23pm - The final part is decided with Peter Owen taking the part of Dianne Griffiths because, as Peter puts it, "I'm a natural salesman" The group beg to differ but at the same time humour him and let him take the part. | |||
| 29.06.03 - 3.42pm - Discussions in the group are now focused around the script for the play. They have decided that all eight of them will partake in a spoof of Roberto Martinez's contract talks. Brian Flynn will open the negotiations before being joined by David Morgan and Huw Jenkins. The rest of the group will then come in and help persuade Roberto to sign for the Swans. | |||
| 29.06.03 - 5.14pm - Leon is not happy with his first line in the play. The housemates have decided that when 'Roberto' walks into the room he should say to Brian "Don't stand up. Oh Sorry you already are" but Leon thinks that it is a little bit too cheesy. | |||
| 29.06.03 - 8.58pm - The play is on hold for the time being with just the first scene being written. The housemates are now enjoying their evening meal of sausage and chips cooked for them by Myra and as Leon puts it "Just like my Mummy makes" | |||
| 29.06.03 - 11.02pm - The housemates head to bed after a tiring day and it appears that the problems of yesterday have been put behind them. Notwithstanding one of them will be evicted at the end of the 6th week in the house and you can make a difference as to who by using the voting form below. | |||
