The UK Big Brother version is different - before nominations are announced everyone goes around saying how much they'd like to get out and see their family, and in some cases outright asking people to nominate them. Then after they have been nominated they say they're quite looking forward to getting out and pretend that they think they're going to go, and then if they're booted out they say that they knew they would be, and claim to be really quite happy about it. Then they give interviews to the tabloids and talk about being backstabbed. They don't tend to cry about it, although they throw tantrums about other things.
My favourite Jeanette Winterson is Oranges are not the Only Fruit, because it's the funniest and most grounded. But I also liked The PowerBook of her more fantastical books.
