Charlie relieved he's still in
|
Charlie is elated he's still in the house after it came down to just him and Lisa in Tuesday's nail-biting eviction. The Geordie was convinced he would get the axe after Davina told David, Sophie, Rodrigo and Siavash they were safe, leaving just Charlie and the Brummie to fight it out for the last remaining spot.
He removed his T-shirt and was just about to pull on his eviction shirt when it was announced Lisa would be leaving.
The 22-year-old later came to the Diary Room, where he revealed he was relieved to have been spared.
He told Big Brother: "I can't believe I'm still here. Davina left it to me and Lisa and I took my top off ready to put my shirt on thinking it was me. Then she said 'Lisa' and I couldn't believe it. I was convinced it was going to be me."
And Charlie admitted he was sure his fiery confrontation with Lisa on Sunday would make him the favourite to get the boot.
He added: "With the argument that me and Lisa had, I thought that was going to be it and people are going to think I'm bad and want to get us out. That's all it was really. That stupid argument. We made up the next day and I don't have a grudge against anyone. I'll keep in touch with her when I get out. I really miss her being around, making up songs and stuff.
"I'm gutted that it was Lisa because I have been close to her from the very beginning. I've always seen her as a mother figure. She was wiser than anyone. But that's just the way it goes. I hope she got a good send-off and everyone cheered."
Cheeky Charlie then grinned as he remembered he'll be competing for the crown, cheering: "I'm in the final! I never ever imagined in my wildest ever dreams that I would make it this far!"
