'Miserable moaner' Nicky favourite for BB boot

Moaning Nicky Maxwell is runaway favourite to leave the Big Brother house on Friday after she and housemate Gerry Stergiopoulos were nominated for eviction.

Punters are unlikely to win any money if Nicky does get the boot. Bookmaker Paddy Power is so convinced she will go the odds are a staggering 1-50 while Gerry is 10-1.

Bookmaker Ladbrokes also has Nicky as the hot favourite. "She's the most miserable housemate in the history of the show and her day-long sulks are legendary," said spokesman Nick Weinberg.

"The man-hating moaner looks set for a Friday appointment with Davina."

Before she entered the house, Nicky promised to release her "inner bitch" on the show. But the accounts executive from Watford, Herts, who was born in a Mother Teresa orphanage in India, has spent most of her time in the house looking glum and moaning about men.

When Big Brother announced who was up for eviction, Nicky said: "I'm not surprised. It's cool. I don't think I deserve it but never mind." Gerry smiled and said: "I'm starting to enjoy this."

Nicky and Gerry each received four nominations during a process spiced up by Gerry and housemates Brian Belo and Liam McGough deciding to make their nominations naked.

Twins Amanda and Sam Marchant have still not received a single nomination.

This week's task involves housemates planning a birthday party for Big Brother. Five housemates will be guests at the party while the others have to provide the entertainment.

Brian will provide music, Liam will perform magic with Chanelle Hayes as his assistant, Carole Vincent will be face-painting and making balloon art while Tracey Barnard and Charley Uchea will both be clowns.

The housemates also have to make Big Brother a birthday cake.
