It seems the Celebrity Big Brother house won't be graced by the presence of bird watcher Bill Oddie any time soon. Or ever, in fact.

The presenter, 76, has revealed that he turned down the opportunity to appear on the reality TV show because he 'has principles', which presumably include not being stuck in a house with hostile celebrities and dressing up like a swan or something whenever Big Brother instructs him to.

Speaking to Talk Radio, Oddie said: "The Celebrity Big Brother house – no offence to them or anybody else but I, for two seconds, I had to go 'argh' when you ask what the fee is, because it's ridiculous."

He revealed that with the amount of money he was offered to go on the show he could have bought himself "a couple of footballers", but having turned it down he stated: "I have principles."

This isn't the fist time Oddie has turned down CBB, having done so back in 2017.

Good for him , he doesn't need to be on a show like CBB and i have a feeling he'd hate the experience anyway and probably end up walking .
