Katie allowed to write column for The Sun inside the House

Katie Hopkins has been allowed to write her column for The Sun inside the House

Tabloid newspaper The Sun is featuring their regular column from Katie Hopkins in tomorrow’s issue – with the column supposedly coming from Katie who is inside the Big Brother House. This means that yet again, a Housemate has been allowed to have time to complete work commitments while in the House. It is unclear however if this will mean Katie has any outside contact.

This has been the case for numerous Housemates in the past couple of series. During Celebrity Big Brother 11, Rylan Clark was allowed to leave the House for a short period to attend a rehearsal for The X Factor tour in a nearby studio. More contact was allowed during Celebrity Big Brother 12 when Mario Falcone was allowed to leave the House to obtain a VISA for filming The Only Way is Essex.

Most recently, Lauren Goodger was allowed to write a column from inside the House during last summer’s edition of Celebrity Big Brother, however Channel 5 denied outside contact.
I'm contacting C5 to see if she's had any outside contact or not...

It's inside the house so I don't really care that much

Jake. 08-01-2015 09:59 PM

don't even care anymore

Whats the problem?

I hate it when BB throw the rules out the window but theres no outside contact here and I find it quite interesting to see a column coming out talking about life in the house.

Seriously I don't understand why this is a problem?

For me, this completely defeats the point in putting Katie in there. She's able to let off all steam being a dick to her housemates in the paper meaning she doesn't have to do it to their faces.

I would like it to become protocol for a housemate to be selected each week to write a column from inside the house anyway for The Sun, could be a cool aspect.

Same

Ugh. They're meant to be secluded from the outside world, but as long as there is no outside contact it's not quite so bad I guess.

It's the fact we weren't made aware of it, again, and for all we know she could have met with journalists from outside which completely breaks the most fundamental rule - again.

armand.kay 08-01-2015 10:07 PM

This isn't really her getting information from the outside world is it? It's just basically her writing something that is broadcasted to the nation. Which is basically what happens anyway.

It would actually be quit interesting if housemates were aloud do keep a diary that's published on a blog, the fbook page etc for viewers to read.

James 08-01-2015 10:09 PM

They don't actually write these columns themselves. They talk to (or meet with) a journalist who writes the article. So that is outside contact.

It's literally a few paragraphs.

Its just a column not a novel.

She will write it then it will get polished by the editors im guessing.

Do you really think a team of people will be drafted in to the house to help her?

But we are aware of it as its being published in the UK's biggest selling newspaper.

Do you mean you want it in the highlights?


"Katie is writing her column in the diary room".

No, but it would be good if Channel 5 acknowledged the fact she is writing it and lets us know somewhere be it on Twitter or the website.

Wouldn't hurt.

jackc1806 08-01-2015 10:23 PM

I think front page of the sun justifies it.

Not an exclusively C5 problem too, BB10 started it off imo

Jay. 08-01-2015 10:24 PM

I don't really care either, it's just a show, it won't alter the comedy/entertainment value at all for me.
