This thread is designed to allow you to re-live Lesley's Big Brother journey documented through gif form. Often overlooked, this legend is one of the most gif-able housemates of all time!

(give the thread a min to load all the gifs!)



We start this journey on 30 May 2007, where the world was first introduced to an icon:

Lesley: "Of course! My husband was on the beach of the D-Day landings"

Her trolling is iconic

Tracey: "We're gonna go around in order... and we're gonna start with Lesley"
Lesley: "I have nothing to say"
*everyone laughs*

Laura: Me because he said to me today
Emily: BUT did he say Lesley's the most intelligent woman in the house?
Chanelle: NO he said Lesley's a very intelligent lady

Lmao Emily trying to coup Lesley from the start.

Lesley: "Can I ask a question, if I was rating myself on considerateness I would put myself there [higher] but Emily says I must be 11"

Lesley: *points aggressively at Emily* "Piggy at the table! Piggy at the table and she's going to suffer!"

I don't think she would've lasted quite long but still think her presence in that house would've been an interesting dynamic had she stayed a bit longer.

Laura: "WELL YOU'VE JUST PULLED THE BLANKET OFF AN OLD WOMAN!... no offence Les!"
Seany: "She's only 40 years old!"
Laura: "No she's not!"
*Lesley gets out of bed and leaves the room*

Seany: "Lesley?"
Lesley: "Yes?"
Seany: "I'm really sorry about last night"
Lesley: "No, you're not in the LEAST BIT sorry, one of the most irritating things about being here is people behaving in quite an appalling way, and then feel that by saying (baby voice) 'sorry' that it's alright. I put myself in that position last night, I will NOT put myself in that position again"
Seany: "...ok"
Lesley: "If you'd like to go and get on with your business I'd be MOST grateful"

Lesley: "OH CAROLE... drove me mad!"

And with that, I give you Lesley Brain and her legacy
