Will Big Brother Halfway Housemates Do A Swap?

On last night’s Big Brother eviction show, Davina McCall informed viewers that when the BB housemates chose two halfway housemates to join them in the house, there would be a sting in the tale.

A Channel 4 press release seems to indicate that the new housemates will no be joining the normal housemates, but swapping places with two of them.

The Press Release read: Over the next two days all of the ‘halfway housemates’ will spend time in the Big Brother House and this Monday (30 July) two of them will swap places with existing housemates. Read more & comment »

Big Brother’s In Trouble: Send In The Freaks

Admittedly, I haven’t been watching Big Brother much this year. Despite a promising start, the series just hasn’t caught my attention. I do know that BB isn’t performing to previous standards though and from what I’m reading in the papers, viewers are switching off in droves.

So naturally, on the night that Charley was destined to leave – an eviction so certain the bookies were paying out in advance – Big Bro has sent in the Big Guns.

Big Brother Halfway Housemate David Parnaby

DAVID PARNABY, 25, from Ayr Store manager David is an “open-minded practising pagan”. His first love is nature and his second is fashion. He wants to win.

David has been the first halfway housemate to enter the main Big Brother house tonight. I have to say he is the most normal freak in the halfway house.

Big Brother Housemates Get To Choose

Big Brother 2007 LogoIn yet another Big Brother twists, not only has BB put in five new housemates this week, but they will also allow the current housemates to choose two who can remain for the duration.

David, the 25 year old visual manager pagan, was the first halfway housemate to be introduced to the main house.

The housemates will make their choice on Monday, but as Davina revealed tonight there will be one or two stings in the tale before then…….exciting!

Big Brother Halfway Housemate Kara-Louise Horne

KARA-LOUISE HORNE, 22, from Harrow Student Kara-Louise claims she’s “extremely gorgeous and exceedingly bright”. A pal thinks she looks like Mariah Carey “only much fitter”. Privately-educated, has issues with “common people”. Wants to work in PR.

Kara-Louise is a self confessed grinning idiot, who will smile stupidly at anything. She hasn’t got much fashion sense, and her bright orange puffball dress tonight was hideouso!

Big Brother Halfway Housemate Shanessa Reilly

SHANESSA REILLY, 27, from Cardiff. Part-time care assistant Shanessa calls her daughter “mini-me” and says her dream job would be to work as a bunny girl at the Playboy mansion. Spends £600 a month on hair extensions. Will be nominated because “they think I’m a slapper or stupid”.

Shanessa entered Big Brother tonight in a ridiculus bright pink almost dress that didn’t nearly cover her rolls of back fat. God…..please don’t choose her housemates.

Big Brother Halfway Housemate Amy Alexandra

AMY ALEXANDRA, 21, from: Lincolnshire Amy is a glamour model and ex-shelf-stacker who idolises Jordan. Has two horses, Velvet and Arken. She wants to be on Big Brother to make a name for herself.

Amy entered the house tonight wearing a pair of white knickers and a skimpy black waistcoat type top. She is obviously hoping to make a name for herself in the glamour/porn industry. Unfortunately I have no doubt that most of the male housemates will want to keep her!

Big Brother Halfway Housemate Jonty Stern

JONTY STERN, 36, from London. Vegetarian museum assistant Jonty collects teddy bears (he has 50) and old coins. Read welsh studies at uni. Ran the Doctor Who Society. Speaks Welsh, French, German, Yiddish, Hebrew, Albanian and Cornish.

Jonty looks decades older than his 36 years. He has never had sex but regularly enjoys spanking sessions with both sexes. Jonty looks like someone who would flash at you in a dark alley, and as he entered the house tonight with his cuddly monkey I swore I wouldn’t make any spanking the monkey jokes. So I won’t!
