Legendary actress Faye Dunaway has come to the aid of British film director Ken Russell.

Ken walked out of the Celebrity Big Brother house last week after a row with Jade Goody. But his friend Faye Dunaway has offered to accompany him back into the house should he wish to return.

But Russell says, “I suggested it to the producers, but they refused. It’s unbelievable, isn’t it? They’ll let Jade Goody and her mother into the house, but not Faye Dunaway. Faye has a lot of class and would have made quite an entrance.”
