ok, so that's the series started now - rest in spoiler...

Hidden: 

I think it will be quite interesting with the good range of ages, the mad raver/cleaner seemed quite popular at first, but I've a feeling she'll end up being as popular as Jade's mum in CBB! The woman from the east-end who stood for the Respect Party might well look like Millie Tant from Viz, but I've a feeling she'll do well...

BIG BROTHER 'WASTE'
EXCLUSIVE: Anger at 'waste' of the BB police squad
By Nicola Methven, Tv Editor 29/05/2007

THE Big Brother police squad was branded a "ridiculous" waste of manpower and money last night. A special team of officers will monitor housemates' behaviour in the BB house at Elstree studios to clamp down on any racism, violence or other bullying. But critics already outraged at the £14,500 cost of the Shilpa Shetty racism probe are furious that taxpayers will have to stump up yet more cash.

They demanded the bill should be picked up instead by Channel 4 or programme makers Endemol. And they said the squad was a waste of valuable resources. Ian Laidlaw-Dickson, Herts Council leader and chair of Herts Police Authority, said: "I take a very dim view of the public paying for an issue which is not their responsibility. It's outrageous anyone should have to pick up the cost for this mess except those who caused it - Endemol and C4." Councillor Mary Bayes added: "This is ridiculous and wrong. Police resources are stretched enough. Taxpayers shouldn't be footing the bill for investigations caused by C4's incompetence."

Police decided to get tough on bad behaviour after January's Shilpa investigation was hampered by Celebrity BB producers refusing to hand over unedited tapes. A source said yesterday: "The tap es could have made a much stronger case against some of the people behind insulting remarks. As a result, no charges were able to be brought. Now it has been decided that nothing more like that will be tolerated - any hint and we take action. If we have to, we'll immediately visit the studios to speak to offenders, regardless of whether the show is on air. We won't rely on just watching selected footage. We're determined to apprehend any person who risks stirring up racial hatred or makes offensive remarks."

The force has spent £350,000 probing BB complaints in the past six years. In the run-up to the latest series, which starts tomorrow night, officers have attended briefings detailing how housemates' behaviour will be monitored. Meanwhile, the Commission for Racial Equality will work with police to pass on complaints from the public. C4 will air a grovelling apology over the Celebrity BB race row before the new series begins. It will be shown twice more to maximise the number of viewers who see it.

More than 45,000 viewers complained over the racist treatment of Shilpa. Four housemates, including Jade Goody, were quizzed. Channel 4 boss Andy Duncan was last week slammed by watchdog Ofcom for "serious errors of judgment". In a bid to avoid more controversy, new contestants have to promise in their contract not to be racist, sexist, homophobic or bullying towards any housemate.

C4 chiefs have halved the cost of voting on BB8 in the wake of the phone-in scandal earlier this year. The normal 50p vote will cost 25p, with 10p going to charity. The remaining 15p will cover the cost of running phone lines. Text voting has been scrapped.

that is pretty surprising that the police are paying officers to sit and watch the show eh?

BB's Carole Lost Job For Heckling John Reid
Friday, 1st June 2007, 07:49

Big Brother contestant Carole Vincent has been unable to get a job since she was given a caution and "humiliated" for shouting at John Reid, friends told former Celebrity BB star George Galloway. The 53 year-old campaigner and member of the Respect party, of which Mr Galloway is the leader, has followed in his footsteps by planning to use the show to air her political views.

But speaking on Galloway’s chat show The Real Deal, friends of the 53 year-old campaigner, who is currently 8/1 favourite to win BB, said that her career as a sexuaBB's Carole Lost Job For Heckling John Reidl health worker had been left in tatters after heckling the Home Secretary. Carole was arrested and cautioned in October last year for shouting Mr Reid as he spoke at the Noor-ul-Islam mosque in east London, at the same time as radical firebrand Abu Izzaddeen famously interrupted Mr Reid’s speech. Speaking on Mr Galloway's show, Respect party member Caroline Coleman said that Carole had been humiliated by the experience, and that she had been unable to continue her career since receiving the caution.

She said: "She made the news when she shouted at John Reid. She felt very strongly about that. She tried to speak to him and couldn’t, and she was thrown in a bush and arrested. She was pushed to one side and humiliated. She lost her job in a round of cuts. She went for another job and was assured it was hers. It was subject to a police check and after that she was told the job was no longer hers because of the caution. She used to be a member of the Labour party several years ago but she felt passionately about the war in Iraq. But I’ve only see her blow her top with people who deserve it, like John Reid."

Mr Galloway, who is known for his anti-Labour stance, added: "If there’s a real life Big Brother it’s John Reid. He wants everyone tracked where they go and anyone who steps out of line deported where possible." And speaking on the show, which aired on Asian channel Raj TV, another friend and fellow campaigner in the Waltham Forest area, introduced as Steve White, said that Carole, who has three children and two grandchildren, would probably take on a mothering role in the house.

He said: "I think she’ll relate to the young people very well whatever their background. It’s good that she’s in there. She might try and mother them a bit. She will probably cook for them. I think she’ll be kind. She’ll probably try to let them know what her values are. She’ll win quite a few people round. Carole is very sympathetic to the values people hold. She’s quite broad like that."

Mr Galloway also used the Big Brother discussion to refer to his own time in the house, when he was ridiculed for his performance as a pet cat, and for dancing in a red catsuit. When asked if he had been made to look a fool by the show, he said: "Big Brother messes with your head. The show raised a record amount of charitable income. My money went to the Palestinian refugees in Gaza. On Red Nose day and Comic Relief people make themselves look a fool all the time so I don’t worry about it like that."

I AM ASHAMED OF BIG BROTHER, SAYS MAN IN CHARGE
Saturday June 2,2007
By Elisa Roche, Showbusiness Editor

LORD PUTTNAM- the deputy chairman of Channel 4 has admitted he is ashamed of the station’s flagship reality show Big Brother. The former Hollywood filmmaker said he hoped the programme would be ditched as soon as another money-making format could be found. Speaking at the Hay on Wye Literary Festival the executive was asked if he was proud of the recent Big Brother racism row involving housemates Jade Goody and Shilpa Shetty.

"I am not proud of the Big Brother row - I am not even proud of Big Brother," he admitted. "But Big Brother accounts for 15 percent of the total revenue that keeps Channel 4 afloat and you have got to go some to replace that." But he added he was sure the channel would replace the show altogether one day. We will do it at some point, of course we will, " he added,"We are in a long period of transition but we will do it."

The Big Brother launch was watched by 8 million viewers at its peak on Wednesday. And millions tuned in again last night to watch this year’s contestants complete a break-dancing task and finally meet their first male house guest. But the British public also appear to be tuning in hoping to make money. More cash has been wagered on Big Brother 8 than on ITV and BBC rival shows Grease is the Word and Any Dream Will Do combined, according to Ladbrokes. Ladbrokes spokesman, Nick Weinberg, said: “Punters are wagering on Big Brother every day without exception, making it the undisputed king of reality TV- it is trouncing the other shows."
