Sunbathing beauties

Steph and Dale soak up the rays

It kills me that I'm stuck in an office while these beautiful people sun themselves on a gorgeous Monday afternoon.

Big Brother has officially got me hooked ALREADY. I'm logging on at my desk to find out the latest goss. I'll be staying up until 3am watching them sleep soon. Anyone else hooked?

Dale is definitely the best looking BB housemate ever.

Topless bathing

Rebecca goes for a cheeky dip

Channel 4 reports:
Rebecca stunned her fellow housemates by leaping into the pool wearing only a thong.

This wasn't some random act though, as she was involved in a late-night game of Truth or Dare when Dale challenged her to take the plunge wearing nothing more than her own skin.

Secret couple revealed

True Couple Mario and Lisa

The housemates guess who the secret couple is...

The housemates will soon come to learn that when they hear the words "this is Big Brother" it might not necessarily be good news.

This is Big Brother

I couldn't wait for this year's Big Brother launch show.

If I'm honest, I can never wait for any Big Brother launch show. Every year I sit in a delighted trance on the couch as the new house is unveiled, levitating with excitement with each revelation - (What? This year's housemates have to dig their way in via an underground warren? Brilliant!) and chuckling as Davina bounds from room to room and rolls around on the shag pile carpet. Again. She's such a card.

This year was no different.

From the second the uber-bronzed beefcake Mario put his muscley foot out of the limo, I was hooked. A couple? Who knew! A pretend couple? Genius! Wait, a real-couple-who-pretend-they-don't-know-each-other-and-a-pair-of-total-stangers-who-pretend-they're-in-love? What are you trying to do to me?

And what a motley crew they are this year. As each housemate made their way up the infamous staircase to the tune of a million boos (from members of the public who had never seen nor heard of them before) I knew we were in for another long summer.

As the leggy, blonde and, dare I say it, wag-tastic Stephanie sachayed through the doors, I could feel my excitement beginning to build. By the time over-exuberant ballet dancer Dennis pirouetted through the baying hordes wearing some kind of miniature sequinned top hat I felt myself wilting.

Apparently BB is going 'Zero Tolerance' this year. Yeah? Well so am I! Impress me Channel 4, I'll be watching.
