BIG BROTHER loser Federico Martone may end up with a brick if phone firm O2 take away his mobile. The sponsors of the reality show have warned him about the bills he is running up.

They have told Federico his volume of calls outstripped those made by other contestants, such as overall winner Cameron and runner-up Scott.

Scots-Italian Fed, of Glasgow, who was given a free mobile at the end of this year's series, was at the centre of almost every controversial incident in the house and notoriously branded Geordie women "slags''.

He used his phone to call relatives in Italy and received warnings about the cost.

He admitted: "Apparently, I have been battering the phone more than anybody else. My uncles and aunties and family in Italy have all been getting calls on it and I've even been calling the speaking clock in Australia. I got a text telling me I should cool it a bit.''

An O2 spokeswoman said: "We give a free phone to each of the contestants after they leave the house and they are allowed to make free calls.''

Oops!

Still, if O2 gave Fed a free phone and told him he can make free calls, what do they expect? He was hardly going to put it in a display cabinet and look at it!
