They’re twins! They’re identical! They even dress identically! And they’re very, very chatty.
This energetic twosome - who will be acting as one housemate in ‘BB’ - spoke enthusiastically about animals, nature, potential alien life and, of course, each other in their opening VT, so we can no doubt expect them to provide a few cheerful moments amid the inevitable rows.

He told viewers the thing he’ll miss most about the outside world is his Bentley, but did take a moment to remember his “family and children” too. Nice.

Former model Jackson’s motto is “fuck it”, he claims, also describing himself as the “anti-man”, compared to some of the other male housemates to appear on ‘BB’ in recent times.
