Despite strains of Unchained Melody, there was no let up for the Big Brother housemates as they threw themselves into a Ghost-style pottery task, still shackled in pairs.

Possessive Michelle warned Shell and boyfriend Stuart against a recreation of the famous raunchy pottery scene in the blockbuster film as the three pairs got stuck into making pots using one hand each.

"I'm watching at all times," she told Stuart before kissing him.
Michelle broke off to tell Shell, "And Princess, it's not like Ghost, OK?"
But she went on to sing Unchained Melody while Dan and Nadia got their hands dirty.

Housemates voted Dan and Nadia's pot as having the best shape and the pair agreed to share their prize of chocolate with the others.

"Well done guys," Michelle told them: "I'm so pleased you guys got it."
Passing comment on Shell and Stuart's rather rudely-shaped effort, she added: "Not quite good enough."

Afterwards, Stuart got carried away and fashioned a part of the male anatomy from leftover clay.

This week has already proved a testing time for Michelle, who was left fuming on Monday after Big Brother ordered her boyfriend Stuart to spend two nights chained to pretty housemate Shell as part of a Joined At The Hip task.

On the first night, Michelle, whose bunny-boiler behaviour has seen her popularity plummet, warned the pair against "giggling or anything".

The housemates are shackled together at all times, except for visits to the Diary Room, shower and toilet.

According to the rules, they must sleep together.

They are not allowed to feed themselves, brush their own teeth or apply their own make-up - their partners must do it for them.

Big Brother paired off the housemates according to their weight. Featherweights Stuart and Shell were matched up, while Michelle had to settle for fellow middleweight Jason. Daniel and Nadia are the heavyweight couple.

All the housemates face eviction this week and Jason remains odds-on favourite.
But Michelle is fast catching him up - bookmakers have slashed her odds from 5/1 to 2/1 since she bedded Stuart.

Her bunny-boiler behaviour is also proving a turn-off for viewers.

Ladbrokes spokesman Warren Lush said: "Michelle's odds have fluctuated wildly throughout the series - during the boot camp task she was 2/1 to win.

"But since then the Chicken Stu saga has seen her become friendless in the market.

"Punters have a strong feeling that Michelle could walk on Friday though Jason remains odds-on favourite to go.

"Jason said that he may as well stay until he is evicted on Friday but he could well be in the house for the final week."
