As if he did not apply...It makes you think which over housemates did not apply over the years.

A large majority of them are fast tracked through to the last stage it's so obvious

Yeah he was deliberating for quite awhile about whether to go on the show. They contacted him directly

Guess they just heard his story and thought he'd make an interesting housemate, they were right I suppose

Just further ruins the concept of big brother, soon there won't be normal BB or CBB..just 15 people who've had controversial new stories in the past year

Benedict was a good housemate, it was such a shame he got evicted so early on.

Thought that was the case. When I saw him on This Morning or whatever it is called I thought he would be on CBB lol

It makes me sad. I started watching the UK series because the US one was getting more and more packed with pretty people from central casting who never applied on their own. Now it seems the UK series is following suit. While I liked Benedict well enough, I find it hard to believe they had to resort to outside casting and couldn't scrape up 2 more likely candidates from all their auditions.

types (Shocked Siobhan revealled Luke S has an acting background). However, there is a way to naturally increase diversity of HMs. Increase prize money to about £250,000. £100K for some is not enough of an enticement to apply to BB nd potentially ruin repuation. Make it Quarter of a million and you'll get loads more older HMs and intelligent Benedict types actually rocking up to audition. You will get doctors and lawyers, retired people looking to top up modest pension, folk hit by scandal etc. |

He clarified on his twitter that by that he meant he was asked to apply but he still had to go through the audition process from the start just like everybody else did.

This happens all the time. I was asked by ITV, through my modelling portfolio, if I wanted to audition for "Take Me Out". That would have been pointless, as I am already spoken for (and the lovely Claire is worth more to me than half an hour of TV exposure, not to mention wonderfully tolerant of my BB obsession ...). At any rate, it was just a preliminary approach, and not fast-tracking. By the sound of things, Benedict had to go through the same stages as everyone else. I had about 4 stages to endure, and I was neither cherry-picked nor fast-tracked for BB. I pushed myself entirely on them ...
Very interesting interview, BTW. It confirms my esteem of the man in question, as well as the opinions I was forming of the HMs. A real shame he is no longer in there to balance out the prevailing childishness, blissful ignorance, and inarticulacy, but at least his influence lives on in his remaining friends (who I can only hope don't get shot down too soon).

Classy Benedict, still talking sh*t about the housemates he didn't get along with, every chance he gets. He must be sooooooooo sophisticated and mature. He also contradicted himself a bunch.

Headhunting housemates is nothing new. It's been going on since at least BB6 when they "invited" Derek to audition. For example Dave from BB11 was approached after the producers read an article about his "Sloshfests" in The Sun.

Great interview, Benedict has his fellow ex HMs nailed. Send him back in.
