Rodrigo chosen for secret mission

Big Brother chose Rodrigo for a special task today that involved convincing another housemate to bark and act like a dog.

The housemates spent this afternoon relaxing in the garden, whilst waiting for their weekly Saturday task from Big Brother. As the afternoon went on, it appeared they may not face one until Big Brother called Rodrigo into the Diary Room.

As Rodrigo sat down, Big Brother addressed him, tasking him with the challenge for today.

"Big Brother has called you to the Diary Room for a very special reason. You have been chosen to take part in a secret mission."

Big Brother then explained to a shocked Rodrigo that should he pass the challenge, he would win the group a token, some strawberries and cream and some alcoholic fruit punch.

"Upon leaving the Diary Room, you will have 30 minutes in which to convince one of the housemates to get on their hands and knees and bark like a dog," the voice announced.

A very amused Rodrigo confidently replied: "You know I will do that - definitely. I have power to convince people of these things."

Upon re-entering the living room, Rodrigo quickly singled out Sophie and began tricking her into thinking he had hurt his foot so badly he had to hop around or walk on all fours.

Eager to help, Sophie was soon convinced and Rodrigo quickly fooled her into joining him on the floor to impersonate her chihuahua.

To Rodrigo's encouragement, Sophie barked and cleaned herself like a dog before repeating the task in front of the housemates.
