Speculation has been rife today over busty Becki's decision to put Michelle up for eviction.

After an incredibly brief time in the house and after being assured she did not have to nominate anyone for eviction, Becki was called into the Diary Room.

Told she had one nomination, fifteen minutes to make up her mind, and that the person she chose would definitely face the public vote, Becki left the famous chair and headed into the house.

The florist looked perplexed _ she spotted Michelle but was hesitant. A series of cryptic questions to an ever-blossoming Ahmed just added to the confusion.

"Should I smoke my cigarette right down to the end?" she asked, followed by: "Which hand?"

Ahmed replied the left one, possibly sealing Michelle's fate.

But things are never that simple.

Becki told Marco and Nadia that she was upset by Michelle's nomination (which can't have been the most sensitive thing in the world to say), and Marco replied: "It's nothing to do with you. You didn't nominate," really Marco?

The double-D brunette hardly slept a wink and headed back to the Diary Room before eight the next morning.

"[Michelle] was the only person who I didn't feel any warmth from. Although she was pleasant I just didn't feel something," she explained, visibly upset.

"It's really awful the way I did it. It takes me back to Jesus and Judas," she said.

There are other theories circulating that she is trying to displace the Geordie in Marco's harem, or in Stuart's bed. There is even a rumour that it was all down to the fact Michelle had better breasts.

But Marco summed it up best.

"She's caught in the middle of it all," said Marco.

He was talking about the tribal war that is going on between his harem and the plotters, but perhaps it was more relevant to Becki being caught between having to do what Big Brother bids and her fellow housemates.
