We’ve been waiting for three long weeks, but Hurricane Sue is finally set to sweep through the ‘Big Brother’ house.
As you may recall, this year’s ‘BB’ launch saw viewers given the opportunity to vote in a People’s Housemate, chosen from four possible candidates.
The public wound up picking Tom Barber, with the other three contenders missing out on a spot in the house.

However, it’s now been confirmed that the three would-be contestants are now being thrown a lifeline.
Yes, ‘Big Brother’ bosses have announced that Andrew, Simone and Hurricane Sue will all be entering the house tonight (29 June), and we can’t wait to see if Sue lives up to her launch night promise:
Plus, Arthur Fulford and Savannah Javeed both chose to leave of their own accord, rather than through the traditional eviction process.
See how their arrival goes down in Thursday’s ‘Big Brother’, which kicks off at 9pm on Channel 5.

Her reality TV appearances don’t stop there, though. as she’s previously looked for love on ‘Take Me Out’, ‘Dinner Date’ and the short-lived ‘Dating In The Dark’.
As well as reality TV, Chanelle has worked as a glamour model, appearing in spreads for Zoo magazine. (credit:MTV)

Rebecca is particularly proud of her honey-trapping business, even penning a book about the venture, ‘The Real Lady Detective Agency’.
In the past, she’s appeared on ‘This Morning’ and ‘Loose Women’ to debate topics including whether it’s unprofessional for women not to wear make-up to work, whether returning to work after giving birth makes women better mothers and, most recently, whether “picking your nose and eating it” is good for you.
Ellie reportedly turned down ‘Love Island’ to appear on ‘Big Brother’, after catching producers’ eyes on ‘The Ibiza Weekender’.
According to The Sun, she was initially supposed to enter the house with her ‘Ibiza Weekender’ co-star Hayley, but seized the opportunity to go it alone when offered by ‘BB’ bosses, leading to a fall-out between the two. (credit:ITV)

We’ll be honest, we hadn’t heard of either of them either, though we’re sure they were thoroughly entertaining. (credit:Adrian Sherratt/REX/Shutterstock)
