I hope Ken Russell had stringent health checks before entering. The first BB death would not be amusing in the slightest.
Anyway, Jo should do well (fingers crossed). H and Donny can fuck off.
And I'm putting a tenner on Jermaine Jackson walking out within 10 days.

You've all pretty much said everything I was thinking except for wondering when H morphed into Dan from The Feeling. With the brown hair he looks exactly like him.

Cleo Rocos? Has she actually been on TV since 1979? She must be thrilled and shocked in equal measure to actually get this gig. Cleo did a fantastic travelogue programme on Five a couple of years ago where she met eccentrics from around the world. I remember her staying with some Lord on his Caribbean island and bathing with baby elephants. Ken Russell is class. He'll have H and Leo Sayer wrestling naked on a bear skin rug before the week is out. |

I only saw clips with the sound down and that "some girl from a pop band" was in it. I thought Jo was Sarah Harding. I'm more happy that it's Jo. I remember her being great filthy fun on a phone-in show on Radio 1, so hopefully this will work well in her favour.

Is Donny Tourette a real person? I assumed he was a comedic character in the style of Dennis Pennis.

Last night on the live feed Jo and H were chatting in adjacent beds, and Jo was bemoaning the flop of her solo career: "The single got to, like, number 14, which I thought was, y'know, pretty good. But then the ALBUM..."
She mentioned needing to pay the bills. H said she should do panto, as you earn more in a week than most people do in a year.
Jo: "I don't like panto."
H: "Yeh, but sometimes we have to do things we don't want to."
Jo: "Yeh, but I REALLY hate pantomimes."
Jo is already semi-iconic!
Endemol obviously don't want any production secrets revealed... when H asked "how did you get this [BB], then?" they immediately cut out the sound.
I don't see how "my agent was approached for any C-listers who are strapped for cash and wouldn't mind a couple of weeks free food and board" would be that much of a shock to anyone...

Apparently Carol Malone replaced Julie Goodyear who pulled out YESTERDAY and they decided against Lauren Harries for some ridiculous reason.

Carole is going to be good entertainment because she's such an almighty cunt, but I wish we could have seen Julie in the house.

I met Cleo at a party once (Channel 5's 5th birthday party). She was very rude and not very friendly at all to anyone there who wasn't a sleb. And the way she was laughing at anyone even slightly famous's rubbish jokes suggested she's rather false as well. She looked very pissed off when she tried to to interrupt a conversation I was having with Christine Hamilton and Christine told her to go away.

I tuned in late and got all excited at seeing Grace Jones. Curse you for having the same hair as her, Jermaine jackson!
A slightly shite line up this year (until Friday at least, even if you don't want Jade back in, Jackiey is TV gold). Perhaps I'm comparing it too much to the genius of last year. I'm happy with Ken Russell though, and H and Jo make it nineties pop heaven. I hope they have a sing-off to help me answer the eternal question of whether S Club or Steps were better.
Davina was a cunt for asking poor Jo if she planned to release another single after this. Yeah, we all know it's why she's there, you didn't have to mention it.
I can't wait to see the "fabulous" Carole Malone being burnt at stake.

Cleo replaced Lauren Harries who was going to go in but failed the psychological tests that all housemates have to take. She must be pretty bad. I mean, they can't be too hard to pass. |

When did Davina morph into Lady Sovereign? I was thinking more along the lines of when did Davina morph into Sue White from Green Wing. With the collection of characters they've ended up with this could've been potentialy one of the best Celeb BB's ever. But no, they decide what we really want to see is not only Jade Goody but her mum and boyfriend as well. And who cares about them "adopting" a celeb. Unless its legally binding and they have to keep them once the show is over. |

I also had the misfortune of meeting her at a party and it was a very similar experience. If celebrity is an attitude she's got a lot of it. I didn't get to meet Christine Hamilton though! |

Christine Hamilton was surprisingly lovely though. She was the least celebby celeb I've ever met.
I'm glad someone else can corroborate my Cleo is evil theory though, thank you zaffra.

Betting update: Cleo and Danielle's odds have been slashed - SLASHED! - while Carol and Jermaine's have lengthened.

I hate the phrase, but I really do think that the reintroduction of Jade may well be the point at which BB has jumped the shark for good.
All these crappy twists. I hate them.

Watching Jade last night going on about whether she could brush her own tongue reminded me of when Nikki returned and carried on with self conscious and contrived tantrums.
I'll watch now and then but it's not going to be compulsive like last year.

Cleo saying how she loved Kenny Everett was touching. She seems like such a lovely person, so I hope the public keep her in for a while.
Even if I didn't know (or care) who Donny was, I did smile when he escaped cos he didn't want to be a servant to Jade.

Apart from his utter twunt first night I thought that Donny was entertaining and interesting enough to watch. I understand why he went, but think the show will miss him.
I am stunned by Jade's declaration that she is "The 25th most influential person in the world."
Jackiey asking Shilpa if she lived in a house or shack was jaw droppingly awful.
There's nobody to love at the moment.
I am loving Lita and Zaffra's revelations that Cleo is horrid. All that OTT happy whacky stuff can not be real.
