Galloway joins Big Brother house
BBC ^ | 01/06/06 | BBC

Anti-Iraq war MP George Galloway and entertainer Michael Barrymore are among the 11 contestants who have entered the Celebrity Big Brother house.

Faria Alam, who had an affair with England coach Sven-Goran Eriksson, US basketball star Dennis Rodman and model Jodie Marsh are among the housemates.

Before entering the house, teetotal Galloway, who is MP for Bethnal Green and Bow, said the show would be a "chance to show a large and different audience what I'm really like".

"Tony Blair will be in a dilemma. One part of him will want me to be evicted early so I don't score another victory," he said.

"On the other hand, as long as I'm in there, I'm leaving him alone. That's going to be a dilemma for those that don't like me.

"Do they want me locked up in the Big Brother house, or do they want me at large and let loose on the streets?"

If he's as big a bore as he is on his C-SPAN appearances this show will be off the air in a matter of weeks.

"I am a good person. I'm not craving limelight," she said."

Said by an apparently out of favor 'Celebrity'.

Oh no, please don't look at me - I just want you to know the 'Real' me. Right.

Not so much the show will be off the air as he'll be off the show. I'm almost curious to see how he gets on with Denis Rosman. Almost.
