Security guards Sam and Lea found their first night shift a gruelling experience, despite initial enthusiasm that they could spy on their fellow housemates via CCTV.
Heading out to the garden at 2am, with instructions to note down any suspicious activity, the duo were delighted to be able to observe the bedroom activities on their monitor.
"Oooh - something's happening under the cover there!" exclaimed Sam.
"That's Dickie having a tug," deadpanned Lea.
She instructed Sam to note down the "suspicious hand movements under the quilt around the genitalia."
Sensing the opportunity for some mischief, Lea said, "I can't wait to go patrolling - shall we lift their quilts up and frighten them?"
But disillusionment and fatigue soon took over. They were 18 minutes late for their scheduled 3am patrol, and by 3.41am Lea was not in the best spirits:
"I'm bored s***less, I'm freezing cold and I'm still on my period... and I've got to sit in blokes' clothes."
Not even regular trips to the squalid staff room could raise her morale. "This stinks of fish," was her frank assessment of a cup of tea.
"We're probably the worst security guards ever," Sam remarked.
Big Brother failed to give them any sympathy, instead ordering the reluctant pair to patrol for the last 45 minutes of their shift.
As the clock finally struck 6am, they stumbled to the Diary Room to report their findings.
Bet they can't wait for the next shift!
