how did Brian get in bb2?

[cc100]

I thought that it was only open to UK natives?Or is it uk residents?

I know he used to live in hertfordshire, didnt he?

he was living and working in the uk 4 a few months, he hada uk passport but he was back in ireland when he was told he was goin in the house

Actually he had been an air steward with Ryanair for 4 years, so presumably he'd been living in the UK for that length of time. Incidentally, he was in a restaurant in Bishop's Stortford when he got the call to tell him he was in, not Ireland.

I've never heard that BB was only open to UK nationals. When you think about it, there have been quite a few who weren't. Anna, Brian, Amma, Vanessa, Nadia, Ahmed ... all of them born outside the UK, but living here now. Those are just off the top of my head, there are probably more.

Never actually thought of it as an issue, since "it's only a gameshow" not the Olympics!:laugh:

i forgot about nadia- do you at least have to be uk based? i guess you have to be fluent in English.

Also, they have more than a few foreigners in the celeb versions.
