Paul Clarke says Big Brother 3 contestants have it easy

Big Brother 2 contestant Paul Clarke says the show's producers have gone soft.

Clarke says the latest housemates have been given too much money to buy things and get better food.

He says he lost a stone in weight during his time in the house because of substandard rations.

Paul told the Evening Echo in Essex: "I couldn't believe they were given a table football as a treat for cleaning the house. We never got anything like that.

"They had enough money to buy a running machine - we didn't have enough to buy a Cornetto.

"They definitely don't have it as tough as we did. I'm always watching them eat fry-ups. We made do with apples. That's why Adele and Kate have put on weight. When I was in the house I lost a stone."

Paul added he was glad PJ didn't get booed but said he had taken advantage of Jade.

"Her striptease was brilliant television but someone should have stopped her. I'm hoping Alex or Jonny will win," he said.

Paul is true in saying this, they are getting hampers for passing the task and sooooooo much booze, I remeber Paul went in the diary room and begged Big Brother for some red wine, and they got it! They were so chuffed, it is becoming a regular occurance for this lot of housemates.
But to be fair, the heaven/hell format deprioved them from a lor of treats for a few weeks, they had it very tough then.
