John Wins Big Brother Celebrity Hijack
In last night’s final, John won this year’s version of Celebrity Big Brother - where talented young people made up the housemates and celebrities took over as Big Brother. John, who is a young Scottish politician - cruelly labelled by some as the “honey monster” - probably had this competition sewn up on the first night when he was forced to undertake a number of cringemaking, humiliating tasks at the behest of first hijacker, Matt Lucas. Telling Jeremy - a young racing driver who confuses cynicism with intelligence - he looked like Harry Potter was my personal favourite.
Personally, I would have bet serious money that Anthony would have won. Great looking, all round nice guy, he seemed a shoe-in to me, but we should never ever underestimate the power or the Scottish bloc vote - see Michelle McManus and X-Factor’s Leon for evidence. To be fair though, John did seem a genuine person and very well adjusted.
This was also Dermot’s last outing as a Big Brother presenter, as he is now giving it up to concentrate on X Factor in the Summer.
