An insider said: “After the racism issues with Jade Goody and Emily Parr they will go out of their way to avoid accusations that having a blind housemate is in any way wrong.”

The move has been backed by an RNIB spokesperson: “I think having somebody blind or partially sighted on Big Brother could be really positive in terms of changing people’s attitudes to blindness.”

Bosses will strongly deny any accusations of exploitation when accused. The source added: ”BB is ready to take a blind person into the house. Everything possible has been done to make sure the person settles in and is not sidelined.

“The house has been designed in an accessible way. Bosses plan to do everything in their power to make sure the person’s stay is comfortable and enjoyable.”
