From today's Scottish Daily Record
We've had fights, walkouts, bitching sessions and midnight fumbles, all we need now is for the housemates to get it on.
ORIGINAL Big Brother winner Craig Phillips was well-prepared when he entered the reality TV house. The cheeky Scouser packed two condoms just in case things got steamy.
But Big Brother has so far been sex-free and Craig reckons the new contestants will need to get down and dirty if they are to keep viewers interested.
He said: "Sex is the only thing Big Brother is missing. Every other Big Brother show in Europe has had contestants having sex, but the British are a little bit more reserved."
Watching the show's latest batch of contestants enter the house last Friday brought memories flooding back for Craig, 33. He said: "It was like I was just there yesterday, feeling all the nerves and tingles."
Here, Craig gives us his opinion on the housemates so far.
TANIA
"She looks a bit like Sophie and smokes too much, but she is very attractive and seems like she is up for a laugh and a bit of fun. She isn't generally annoying anyone yet, so I reckon she has got a good chance of staying in for a while at least."
RAY
"He is reasonably quiet but has instigated a few games and things, which is a good sign that he will stay in. I stayed quiet at the start, too, and I think it is a better approach than going in really loud like Anouska has."
STEPH
"Steph is nice and bubbly. She doesn't seem shy but she is not putting on any kind of front either, so I think she has a really good chance of going the distance. And by that I mean winning the show, not sex. I think she is too reserved for that."
CAMERON
"I don't think he'll last as he has had such a different upbringing. The rest are from cities, so I don't think he will find much in common with anyone. I don't blame him for trying to catch a glimpse of Anouska in the bath."
SISSY
"She has been talking a lot about herself. She is very open which the public and housemates appreciate. It will make people trust her, as long as she does not say anything to upset her family. She has a good chance and I hope she does well because she is from Liverpool."
GOS
"Gos seemed a bit cocky and loud initially, as if he was going to sail through it, but I think he is beginning to realise it is going to be hard. They don't show much of him, which means he can't be doing much, so he will have to be careful not to alienate himself."
JON
"He is one of the favourites for eviction this week or the week after. He has been called boring and quiet but I don't think there is anything he can do to change that impression because he does seem to be being natural."
NUSH
"She seems nice, polite and not too loud. The boys are all going to like her, which could be threatening to the other girls, although she seems to be getting on fine with them all. I don't think she is up for sex but I think she has a good chance of staying in for a while."
FEDERICO
"He seems quite cool and laid-back and he obviously likes chatting to the girls. I imagine the female viewers will want to keep him in. He will get respect from the blokes because he is a bit of a Jack The Lad, but he will have to be careful not to get too sleazy with the girls."
JUSTINE
"She has been very quiet but she does seem to be coming out of herself. And if she keeps pulling stunts like her Tina Turner impressions, the public will want to keep her there."
SCOTT
"Bad idea for him to get too close to Anouska - he seemed to enjoy it when she was showing off her first aid skills by putting him in the recovery position. If she is annoying everyone else, he could be alienated too."
ANOUSKA
"She is going to keep being nominated until she is out. Mind you, if she is entertaining the public she might be there for a while. She was naive to get so drunk on the first night because those first impressions last."
Craig will soon be teaming up with "I like blinking I do" Helen Adams to judge a "I can't believe it's not butter competition" The `I can't believe I'm not famous campaign' aims to make a talentless person a household name by putting their face on the butter packs. The competition ends on June 18. To enter call 08457581215.

I think most of his views are quite accurate. although I'd probably disagree about Cameron - I don't think he'll be one of the first few to be evicted.
Do you agree with Craig's comments? :spin2:
