In many ways, Big Brother housemates are a lot like children. They squabble, they make a mess... and they all love an ice cream.
The urge to steal some ice cream from this week's Italy Task has been building all morning as the housemates moaned about the possibility of failing it. Halfwit was despatched to the Diary Room earlier to ask how much trouble they would be in if they helped themselves to a couple of bowls.
"Did they say we could eat ice cream?" Noirin questioned him when he returned.
"They were evasive," he told her. "They said look in the rules."
"Let's just leave the ******* ice cream alone," grumbled Siavash. "We can't leave it alone for one day?! Everyone's sitting around moaning about getting a Task, then as soon as we get a Task everyone's like 'I'm sick, I'm tired, when is it finished?'"
But the other housemates just couldn't let it go. 15 minutes later they were still debating, finally reasoning that if they were going to fail that part of the Task, they may as well just eat the ice cream.
"Eleven people are here - take a vote," suggested Sree.
"I would do it, because if they think we've already failed then we'd be as well eating ice cream!" piped up Karly, who could hardly contain herself with excitement.
"If we're gonna do it, let's ******* go for it because they might call us in," said Siavash, doing an abrupt about-turn.
There was a squealing stampede as everyone made a bee-line towards the frozen goods.
"Quickly, quickly!" yelped Siavash.
"Charlie, bring the scoop!" shouted Sree urgently.
Halfwit could be heard quietly saying, "There's plenty of icecream for everyone..."
Everyone started calling out orders. "Strawberry on one side, chocolate on the other!" demanded Charlie.
"Mint choc chip!" yelled Marcus. "And a few flakes, and some nuts and whatnot."
You better fill up now housemates - because at this rate you'll be kissing the luxury shopping budget goodbye...
