THE Sun flew a giant banner over the Big Brother house yesterday — sparking a showdown between Michelle and Becki.

Our message in 7ft letters read: “Only Becki nominated Michelle!”

Fuming Geordie Michelle stormed straight up to bisexual Becki and demanded to know if it was true.

Desperate producers cut the sound while viewers saw Michelle and Becki having an animated row in the garden.

Our bi-plane flew the 110ft banner over the garden three times — as producers cut pictures and sound in a bid to keep the message secret from viewers.

Pilot Rob Newman, 36, swooped over the Elstree Studios in Borehamwood, Herts, at just 1,500ft — in a display that would have made fictional flying hero Captain Biggles proud.

A show insider said: “Producers battled to get housemates inside before they saw the message but it was too late.

“Michelle was heartbroken when she was nominated last week, and she was furious to realise she had been stabbed in the back by Becki, who she thought was a friend.”

Becki had picked out rival Michelle to face the public vote after Big Brother told her that she had to choose one housemate for nomination last week.

Then she sealed Michelle’s fate by giving her a “Judas” kiss on the cheek. Michelle had spent all week agonising over who had nominated her.

Sound and pictures were restored after an hour at 4.09pm yesterday — showing the housemates gathered on the sofa enjoying a voluntary geography quiz.

After a briefing from producers the atmosphere was friendly with Becki and Michelle sitting feet apart chatting. Bosses have banned talk about the spat.

OUR daredevil pilot Rob Newman swooped so close to the Big Brother house he could recognise housemates.

Plucky Rob flew 40 miles from Aylesbury, Bucks, then circled the house for ten minutes.

He said: “I was so close I could see six people in the garden, pointing and laughing. I could tell one was Jason.”
