Fishy Flops Flunk
Published Saturday, Jul 17 2004, 20:01 BST | By Dek Hogan

Unfortunately for Michelle, as selector she had to rummage in a bowl of fish guts to pick out housemates names. She really didn'y enjoy this and wrecthed and wailed throughout.
Three pairs were chosen, Jason and Victor, Stu and Shell and Dan and Nadia.
Jason was first into the diary room to answer general knowledge questions while Victor stood on a flight of steps over a vat of fish guts. Every time Jason got a question wrong, the stairs went flat and Victor faced a soaking in the rancid gunge below. Jay got two wrong, as he thought that the Four Seasons was by Mozart not Vivaldi and couldn't name a hot sauce named after a Mexican state. Victor has unfazed by two dunkings though and jumped in a third time for good measure.
Shell got two dunkings when Stu didn't know which year Hong Kong gained independance and totally misunderstood a question about which vowel doesn't appear on the top row of a keyboard.
Dan too took two trips down the slippery slope as Nadia didn't know the lead singer of the Rolling Stones and failed to get the name of a greek dish made with fish eggs.
The group were informed that every pair had failed and then Michelle as selector had to return to the diary room.
Michelle was asked to drink a fish milkshake to regain the fifteen thousand pounds that had been lost. Being a strict veggie, she refused point blank. Big Brother then relented and said they could save five grand if another housemate supped the foul concoction.
Stu had a go at it, but said it was "grim" before Shell protested she was cooking a roast dinner and cast the evil mixture into the fish guts.
The group were left to contemplate their latest fail while stinking decidedly fishy.
