Big Brother 8: Nicky Maxwell Evicted

Big Brother 8 - Nicky Maxwell Evicted

Nicky Maxwell became the fifth person to be voted out of the BB house with 76 percent of the votes. Given that  the bookies had her odds at 1/200, I suppose it was fairly predictable that she would go.

I quite liked Nicky. Yes, she moaned a lot but compared to the some of the other housemates like Charley and Chanelle ”Poundstretcher” Hayes, she came across as level-headed and reasonable.

Here’s Nicky’s interview with Davinna.

Davina: Who do you think nominated you?
Nicky: Liam, Ziggy, Chanelle, Gerry not sure about Carole. I think it’s obvious. (After seeing that she was right) I’m cool with that, I don’t care.
Davina: I have this feeling that you do care.
Nicky: I was miserable. I missed home and stuff and I do have my down days and I did explain that to them. I didn’t want to make anyone feel uncomfortable. I feel like I’m a bit disappointed in Carole cos I’m the only one out of the younger ones who does housework and I’m always asking if she needs help. I know I’m moany.
Davina: So you said Liam nominated you. But it was not that long ago you whispered marry me to him.
Nicky: No way. Was I drunk?
Davina: You were looking at him.
Nicky: Please stop it. Can you just not do it? Why would I do that? I liked him at first but there was no other eye candy in the House.
Davina: At that time when you really liked him?
Nicky: I wouldn’t have said that. Marry me? Oh that’s really bad. I really was joking.
Davina: What I do want to say is that you went in a man-hater, and when Liam came in you thawed out, and we saw a human side. But then it went. Are you aware you shut down?
Nicky: I felt really stupid. No-one knows what it’s like in that House. The smallest thing upsets you. Usually I’d be like, whatever.
Davina: Any girl would feel like that. It’s ok to feel vulnerable.
Nicky: I’m really annoyed with myself.
Davina: People described you as moody and sneaky…
Nicky: I’m fun! (Laughs) I don’t know what happened. I know I wasn’t being fun and it made me think I’m miserable next to the twins. I can’t explain it. I wasn’t able to have fun like that. I missed my friends and family so much. I should have tried to get out of that.
Davina: Best moment?
Nicky: The funniest bit was when I was trying to impress Liam with Amanda and my heel got stuck and she went ‘Nicky, Nicky’ and it got stuck again, and I walked on and it got stuck again. Those two girls, they are the most adorable girls in the world, the sweetest, and they were so cool with me. They really are in that bubble. They were like sisters to me today, they were so sweet to me.
Davina: What do you think of your other housemates? Charley? Tracey?
Nicky: Charley makes me laugh. I know she’s wrapped up in herself but there’s a different side to her and she was really sweet to me and I won’t forget that. And Tracey is just wicked.
Davina: Chanelle?
Nicky: Not sure.
Davina: Ziggy?
Nicky: No way.
Davina: Is it for real?
Nicky: No way.
Davina: Brian?
Nicky: He is just the sweetest..
Davina: Carole?
Nicky: After seeing that, I still think she deserves to win. She’s a wonderful woman and I’m disappointed as I don’t mind helping round the house.
Davina: Gerry?
Nicky: He does my head in. So annoying. He’s like a child. He makes me feel weird.
Davina: Liam?
Nicky: No he’s just annoying. I don’t know anything about him, I made the effort to talk to him a bit more and he’s not bothered.
Davina: Have you learnt anything?
Nicky: Loads. That I’m miserable. No I’m not. I’ve learnt sometimes I can be snappy and I need to think about the way I say things to people. And I don’t’ think I’m all that bad.

  • I liked Nicky, i felt she was unfairly edited by BB.
    I think she was thrown to the dogs in order to save Charley.
    I hope Nicky goes on to have a very happy and healthly life
    lots of love from a Nicky fan xxxx

  • Nicky you should not have gone! BB has been flat and boring since you were evicted!

  • I personally think Gerry should have gone. Compared to him, Nicky was nice.

  • A beautiful girl and potentially great housemate, just like we used to have before the show became Big Caricature and help manipulate and strangle characters like her who have depth, intelligence and flaws to them.

    She has her confidence demons (as we all do) but if she can overcome them, she’ll be dangerous.

  • Long live the real Princess Nicky.

  • Nicky was fantastic … and what a gorgeous pic that is.

    As for being sneaky .. not at all! Carole spread awful rumours about her (telling Chanelle that Nicky was nominating her, for instance, when Nicky never once nominated her – Carole herself was nominating her! – she’s the sneaky one!)

    Missing you loads Nicky x

  • Nicky,why did you take the place of a decent HM who might have entertained us?

    BTW, the young boys will never fancy you…you are far too bitter.
