Why did you apply to be on this new series of Big Brother?
I left my job to set up my own company and, in Yorkshire, there's not that many celebrities, so I haven't had much luck because I don't live in London anymore. So, I went to the job centre and the woman looked at my CV and said, ‘You should do something on the telly. You should write a book. You should go on social media, do videos. You’re too good to sit in an office, you've got too much going for you’. I laughed it off but I went home and saw the advertisement for Big Brother. So, I just did the video and never thought anything of it. I went back to thinking, ‘what am I going to do in my life?’. And then I got the phone call, and it just went from there and now we’re here!
What do you think you’ll bring to the House?
Quite a complex amount of things. One, I like to joke around, and I like to do practical jokes and stuff like that. Two, I'm very sensitive and caring. And I probably cry a lot. I don't think I'll be the mum of the house because I'm too naughty.
What are you looking forward to the most about being a Housemate?
What I'm looking forward to is getting out of this world at the moment. Just getting off social media, getting away from my phone. I've had my phone since 1994. That's a long time. And I watch too much TV and there’s too much noise going on, so it'll be nice to just pretend that the world is beautiful.
Do you have a strategy for making it to the final?
The only strategy I've got is to be myself, because I've never been able to be anyone else. My strategy is to try and have a good time, be good, no arguing with Big Brother, and to just get as many memories as possible.
What are you most likely to get nominated for?
Being ratty. Because I can't stand people that snore, chew or make any noise. So, I'll probably be a bit ratty.
Tell us one thing about yourself you think will surprise people the most.
Probably that I’m a loner. I think everyone thinks I'm this big social butterfly. When I go out, I'll go out but when I stay in, I like it very quiet. I like my solitude.
What would you do with the money if you won?
I need to get some new patio doors. I need my house painted. I'd like a new front door. I need my shower mended. All the stuff that I've neglected while I haven't had a job. So, I want to get all those little bits done. I don't care about going on holiday or anything like that. I'll probably just take the dogs to my mum's and go off to Scotland to a nice cabin somewhere and then I’ll put the rest in the bank to live on.
