Amanda asks "Is it not a country?" Brian says "It must be a country then…"
Liam is in the Diary Room. "And so, the end is near…..that's a bit of a yank on the old heartstrings". He says they all feel they've made some genuine friends in the house and that they are starting to talk about home now. "I wish I could stay here forever….I remember walking in here, but before that walking from the car in here I can't remember a thing. I try so much, I remember touching people's hands and photographers shouting me name. It was like being fired out of a canon….it's been such a roller-coaster. It's been like the best roller-coaster ever."

He then says "Wouldn't it be weird if we were on our way out and one by one we all turned into sun-cream lotion? There'd be no point interviewing us because we wouldn't say anything because we wouldn't say much would we…?" The housemates look confused and Ziggy says "that would just be strange".
