Events in the Big Brother House have once again forced Ahmed to break down.

The former asylum-seeker has been in trouble with Big Brother, had a talking to from Victor and Jason, had an intimate chat with Becki, and made an impassioned speech to the other housemates trying to get them all to nominate him.

It all started yesterday afternoon when Jason decided to try and neutralise the threat of Becki.

They pulled Ahmed to one side and told him that the double-D brunette had been spreading rumours behind his back.

"She's said things to people about other people," he confided. "She's being all nice...She's got a lot of power because she knows all about us," the blonde body-builder added.

Victor congratulated Jason on his work breaking up what looked like it could be a budding friendship after Ahmed had left.

"Me and you are the biggest f****** schemers in here man!" laughed Jason.

But things were stirring in the heart of the 44-year-old Somalian.

Just the night before he had been talking about the newest housemate in glowing terms.

"She's got a good personality," he announced, adding that if he had to choose any one of the housemates it would be Becki: "Oh, that would be my date!" he exclaimed the wee hours of the morning.

But after Jason's chat doubt was brewing.

It was made worse when Big Brother called Ahmed to the diary room to give him a warning about discussing nominations.

The Somalian was outraged that he was being warned after he was pressured into discussing things by Jay and Victor.

"I am being pressured!" he yelled, forcing Big Brother to order him to leave the diary room.

"I am not a sandwich!" he added, far more cryptically.

And all this was getting to him.

Given unhappy information about his squeeze, and warned unfairly by Big Brother he lost the plot.

He gathered the housemates together, as they glanced anxiously at the plates, and launched into an impassioned appeal

"I'm not happy to stay here," he said, his voice cracking.

"I don't want to quit so make me a favour and nominate me ALL OF YOU, 'cos I wanna go home."

He then ran into the bedroom - with Dan and Shell in close pursuit.

"I wanna go home!" he screamed into the darkness of the bedroom ceiling.

But he does not want to sneak out into the night - he wants the whole thing. Crowds, photographs and an evening with Davina.

But things began looking up before he went to bed.

The object of his housely affections came to see him.

"It really got me, seeing you so emotional," Becki told Ahmed.

"I could tell you were really, really upset. It just pushed me over the edge," she added.

The surgically-enhanced florist brought him some cold water - even remembering that he prefers china mugs to the plastic cups.

The pair ended with a bit of flirty chat.

After some faux huffing and puffing from Ahmed leading to girly giggling from Becki, he wished her sweet dreams.
