Big Brother recap, eviction: Jale Karaturp is odds on favourite to exit the BB house; Marlon apologises after using shopping budget to save himself

 [Channel 5]

Jale Karaturp has become bookies' favourite to be evicted from the Big Brother house on Friday.

William Hill and Paddy Power have both given the 33-year-old odds of 4/5 to become the fifth housemate to get the boot.

Behind her is Ashleigh Coyle with Paddy Power giving her odds of 11/10 and Christopher Hall with 14/1.  William Hill gave fiery 18-year-old Coyle odds of 6/5.

After being slapped with a killer nomination by Pauline Bennett in week one, Jale has been up for eviction every week she has been in the house. 

It looks increasingly like, this time, she won't survive the nomination.  

Marlon Wallen evaded eviction this week by sacrificing the shopping budget to keep his place in the house, not that this went down well with housemates.

Mark Byron is favourite to win the show.

The coming days will probably still be rather awkward for Marlon as he experiences the fall out of saving himself with the shopping budget.

The cold shoulder from other housemates, including Jale, has hit him hard.  "I completely understand it was selfish, but I didn't think I was going to get that reaction," he said. 

He has since apologised to housemates.

After his apology, Winston Showan couldn't resist a pun: "Oh I suppose we can all cook him a nice meal tonight...oh yea we can't!"
