Big Brother 2 Contestants - Where are they now?
After the success of Big
Brother 1, the minds behind Big Brother decided to do a second series. A record
amount of people applied, and the producers picked a good group of people. The
most memorable moments of BB2 were the new tasks, and the romance between Helen
and Paul. As did the first series, BB2 broke Channel 4 viewing records.

Penny was the first housemate
to get voted out the BB house. The main reason people voted for her is they
