Nick Leeson entering
 
I just saw an article posted by The Sun which then they deleted saying he's entering...

He found infamy after he took down Barings Bank??

BBUK-Fan 12-08-2018 07:50 PM

Who

Mitchell 12-08-2018 07:57 PM

Yeah it’s in the sun in the article about bake off

“ROGUE trader Nick Leeson has signed up for Celebrity Big Brother, which starts this week.The disgraced financier was jailed in 1995 for being behind a dodgy trading account which brought down Barings Bank.”

Denver 12-08-2018 08:04 PM

Wow we love the Winner

Mitchell 12-08-2018 08:06 PM

Very random signing, a good one I guess, but even more random than Maggie

Andrewww 12-08-2018 08:06 PM

This wouldn't be as offensive if they hadn't of also got that one off married at first sight?

I mean WTF? NOT celebrities in the slightest.

I know. The female line-up seems promising but the male line-up... :shrug::shrug:

He's the fraud then

Scream 12-08-2018 08:13 PM

From a (very) quick Google search, it appears he has books out and has a film centred around him. I don't really care if I don't know people as long as they can back it up and it's sounding A LITTLE better

Oh wow Ewan McGregor played him! It's called rogue trader, probably the most relevant thing about this guy.

Scream 12-08-2018 08:22 PM

He was in Celebrity The Apprentice in Ireland

Maxxie. 12-08-2018 08:22 PM

Definately more fanous than danielle marr or jeremy mcconnell, wait is this guy irish??

Yeah but why would he be remotely interesting in 2018 can his heart stand it ?

My mistake it was cancer

Scream 12-08-2018 08:42 PM

From interviews I've seen on Youtube, he doesn't seem remotely interesting so after he's said what he needs to in his VT, there will likely be nothing to him.

Same with Rodrigo... and Dan Osborne doesn't exactly excite me either.......... blimey

Rob! 12-08-2018 08:45 PM

Yeah I can’t say the rumoured list is filling me full of optimisism so far. I’ve Barely heard of most of them.

Maxxie. 12-08-2018 08:46 PM

I absolutely disagree i think this guy is one of the most interesting in there! He might be slightly boring but i don't think he will be, it takes balls to scam a bank for 1.4 BILLION so i think that says a lot about his personality.

That wern't 'balls' it was ineptitude - get it right ! he never scammed he just brought the bank down :nono:

Jase. 12-08-2018 09:46 PM

Nick and Nat clearly the standbys for Paris and John then

DarrenBBUK 12-08-2018 09:47 PM

LaLaLand 13-08-2018 12:35 AM
