Kenzie Watch: Day 9 

Both Kenzie and Jeremy knocked Jackie up this morning, not that they've both had a sudden conversion to heterosexuality - Jackie is more likely to have the opposite effect on a man - but her refusal to get out of bed, despite the alarm having been played in the house for twenty minutes, began to grate on them, so they found themselves banging on her door in an attempt to get her to rise, even if shining seemed unlikely to be part of her agenda for the day. Despite briefly rising from the covers, allowing them a short respite from the alarm, she promptly went back to sleep, setting the alarm off again. In the end Brigitte was sent in to deal with her, with Kenzie offering the advice that she should "Go in there and elbow drop her", Kenzie presumably being too much of a gentleman to do it himself.

Despite Jackie being fond of Kenzie, declaring him to be one of only two housemates she'd actually want to see again, these feelings were not reciprocated, with Kenzie happily joining in a bitching session about her in the sauna along with Caprice and Lisa. He certainly seemed none too impressed with her when she downgraded him from the little boy that she'd previously called him to "the baby", but rather than blow his top as he did when John called him something similar, he remained calm, perhaps because Jackie is, just about, a lady but it's more likely to be because Jackie was offering him a glass of wine at the time and his alcohol based urges were slightly greater than those for maintaining his dignity and self-respect which, as he's a member of Blazin Squad, weren't exactly that high to begin with.

We were treated to the phrase we'd long expected to hear today, as the Geordie voiceover informed us that while all of the other housemates were in the lounge area, "Jeremy and Kenzie are in the bedroom". Alas, shenanigans seemed to be in short supply, as instead they were discussing the fact that Kenzie seemed a bit down today, Kenzie agreed, postulating that perhaps it was because he was bored. Why was he bored? Well, and we'd like to point out that this is an exact quote, "We've not had our crease up today". They both looked saddened that nothing had been up their crease during the daylight hours, perhaps because they were unable to get privacy in the toilet - the only area of the house that's free from cameras - but Jeremy looked at it philosophically. "Maybe today just isn't a crease up day", he suggested, but you could tell by the look in his eyes that he really, really hoped that wasn't the case.
