Body language expert reveals Patsy Palmer's true feelings during ‘uncomfortable’ exit interview

A body language expert has weighed in on Patsy Palmer's awkward exit interview after she appeared to stonewall one of the questions from co-hosts AJ Odudu and Will Best.

The EastEnders actor joined reality star Ella Rae Wise and TV presenter Angellica Bell in a triple eviction last night ahead of Friday's (25 April) grand finale.

Palmer wasn't fazed by missing out on a spot in the final, arguably celebrating her eviction as though she'd won the show itself — until a rogue question about axed contestant Mickey Rourke put a dampener on her spirits.

After her exit from the house, the actor sat down with Odudu and Best to recap journey in the house, with a question about her response to The Wrestler actor slamming her cooking.

"There were a few tricky moments you had to deal with in there," Best said. "People complaining about your broccoli, that was one."

However Palmer wasn't in the mood to reflect on others' opinions about her cooking skills and sat tight lipped while the pair waited for her response.

"You don't want to talk about the broccoli do you," Best continued after a few seconds of awkward silence. "Absolutely fair enough."

"Did it really upset you when Mickey complained to your face about the food," Odudu followed up, which Palmer shut down by replying: "Erm, not really that."

While we'll never definitively know how Palmer felt about Rourke raking her cooking over the coals in the house, it's clear the soap star wasn't too comfortable reliving the moment.

Weighing in on Palmer's body language on behalf of Betfair Casino, Darren Stanton said it seemed to him that Palmer didn't want to give the comments 'her time of day'.

"She had a blank face and looked very tense - her shoulders weren’t relaxed, and she didn’t want to engage at all," Stantion said, adding that he picked up on 'facial expressions of irritation and annoyance' during the interaction.

"I think for a split second, everyone thought Patsy was joking when she was remaining silent, but everyone soon realised that she didn’t want to answer," Stanton continued.

"I think the audience felt exactly what AJ and Will were feeling. They did their best to keep things going by asking more questions, but it was uncomfortable to watch."

The final of Celebrity Big Brother will take place on Friday, 25 April at 9pm. Viewers are now able to vote for their winner from remaining contestants JoJo Siwa, Chesney Hawkes, Donna Preston, Jack P Shepherd, Chris Hughes and Danny Beard.
