Day 10: The House Martin

 

27 mins ago

You may know him as Mr. Owen. You may also know him as Mr Kray, but to us he's Mr Kemp - Martin to his friends – and he's settling into the Celebrity Big Brother House in some style.

The bass-man and character actor has got into the BB groove so seamlessly, in fact, that it's no surprise that he's something of a fan of the show. Martin's managed to grab himself plenty of screen-time without getting into any rucks or rows and he's one of a small number of housemates who seem to actually be enjoying the experience so far this summer. When he's not washing up – which he spends vast amounts of his time doing – he's generally hanging out, making the most of the sun and chatting away amicably with his fellow housemates.

An eviction night is just around the corner, so at least five of our celebs can be forgiven for spending Day 10 rattled, but Martin's not among their number. Actually, he doesn't seem remotely affected by the oncoming shake-up. Even when the late-night nom-bomb were announced, his attitude was more 'you've got to laugh' than 'oh my gosh'.

This morning, Martin took some time out to get to know Rhian - the girl he nominated on Day 8. They sat together in the smoking area and, for the first time since launch night, made an effort to get to know one another. It started with the model lamenting the fact she decided not to eat any steak the previous evening. "Oh, man. It was delicious!" Martin told her, possibly making things worse. Balancing things out, he then started to tell her that she needs to take care of herself if she's going to make it through the show. Rhian started asking him about his acting career and the two spent some quality time for the first time, chitter-chattering about their lives. It was spoiled slightly when Harvey started talking about cars, but these things happen.

Later on he went back to scouring kitchen utensils, rotating his time between his beloved kitchen chores and lively chit-chat with Harvey without a single care in the whole wide world. Mr Kemp seems to go from strength-to-strength, eluding too much criticism and branching out, widening his circle of friends while enjoying his time in the CBB House. Is this man totally incapable of offending anybody? There's plenty of time for that. Don’t count on the House Martin staying this chilled for the duration.

I find him abit of a disappointment if I'm honest. I thought he had a bit more about him. I'VE ALWAYS LIKED sPANDAU bALLET, HIS CHARACTER IN ee AND THE WAY HE conducts himself, but there doesn't seem anything interesting there. Sorry about the caps. Once I've had a drink this laptop turns into a wrestling animal and I can't always contain it.

It's the spacebar more than anything. I press it and it doesn't respond, but touch the blinking square which goes for a mouse, I only have to look at it and it goes off into all sorts of directions. I'm waiting for a table to put it on so I can connect a mouse.
