People often criticise Big Brother 8 for being dull. Do you think that's fair?
"BB8 is always slagged off as boring, but that's just because the producers played it safe. I mean look at Chanelle, she's made the second most money after Jade. Brian and the twins are also still household names. The viewing figures were very, very good as well. But the problem was that after the Jade Goody/Shilpagate affair, they didn't want any controversy. Poor Emily was used as a scapegoat and they removed everything slightly controversial. I mean, people had sex in the house, I was teaching the twins about sex and I remember another time I pushed Amanda in the toilet and she caught Brian masturbating. But they didn't air any of that. I believe they were just worried after the Jade Goody incident that the show may be pulled."
