big brother eye 2009
According to the Daily Star, Big Brother bosses are going to have the show’s nine previous winners re-enter the BB house to celebrate the show’s 10 year run.

I thought she typified the ‘chav’ type of young woman; loud-mouthed, inarticulate, crass, vulgar… in fact, I thought she was exactly what she portrayed herself to be – the ill educated product of a broken, dysfunctional family who lived on state benefits on a rough council estate.

Well the celebs are well and truly settled into their new pad now and this morning, they received their first shopping, much to their excitement. And who can blame them? After all, it’s literally… hours, since they last got any food!
