Eight HMs recognised each other - Guardian

Big Brother shock! Eight of the contestants appeared to recognise each other on last night's opening show. And here was I thinking that was against the rules. Conspiracy theory? Cock-up? Or should I get a life?

For those of you who missed it (what were you doing? Watching The Line of Beauty on Sky Plus or something?), viewers were introduced to the 14 contestants for the first time last night.

Except it wasn't the first time some of them had been introduced to each other. First up, Shahbaz, an "unemployed cross dresser" from Glasgow, recognised yoga-made Brummie Dawn. "Oh my god," cried Shahbaz. "Come here you, what's going on?" That's what I thought.

Then Welsh lifeguard Glyn recognised Dawn, Lisa recognised Shahbaz (keep up) and Nikki, whose dream is to marry a Premiership footballer, get her hair and nails done and go out for lunch, recognised Grace. "We both worked together," explained dance teacher Grace.....

Wouldn't some of them have recognised each other from the auditions?>

I didn't think it was against the rules for the housemates to know each other - Dan and Kitten knew each other before they went into BB, from going to the same clubs, and BB said that it was not against the rules.

I guess its always possible from the auditions being so open.
