Watching Big Brother housemate Brian last night, trying to pretend that he had never heard of Shakespeare, made me very very suspicious.

Not only did he claim never to have heard of the play Romeo and Juliet, but he also asked who Shakespeare was and added:

“What’s Romeo and Juliet? Ain’t Romeo that geezer from So Solid Crew?”

I got the distinct impression that Brian was lying, he just didn’t convince me at all. i think he is trying to play the part of the harmless dumbass…after all it worked for Jade Goody didn’t it. I really believe he is trying to emulate her Big Brother success, but if he really wants to succeed at this, he will need to develop some acting skills as his performance last night was very very poor!
