I don't have any idea what most of them are like. I only saw Biggins on IAC, so I know how he's as a person (or on reality TV).
It looks like some of them have a bold reputation on the forum.
Enlighten me (and others who are also unfamiliar with them) about the other housemates, how did they come across in other TV shows/public perception and what we should expect from them.
Why is Frankie so hated, what's the buzz around Chloe, Saira on The Apprentice, etc... Why did you like/hate them from before CBB.

Frankie was a stuck up camp queen who acted up to the cameras during big brother usa, he would dress up a pretend to be a southern bell which no one found funny. He lived of his sisters name, and joked that a group of the male houseguests should take a girls virginity in the house by gangbanging her..... hope that helps

WTF?

[Cal.]

Renee - She can be loud and confrontational when she wants to be, but she's also kind and loving. She's proud of her mob/mafia roots.
Bear - He likes to stir the pot a lot and if he hears someone bitching about someone he'll go and tell the person being bitched about just to start some drama.

I loved Saira off Loose Women, didn't see her on Apprentice but I know that there is no topic of conversation that is out of bounds. If she has a problem with someone she will definitely let them know but not in an insulting way. She also has a great sense of humour

[Paula D]

Sam Fox has always come across as a down to earth straight talking girl.

She was on I'm a Celebrity once and came across well.

[starry]

Even if I end up watching this I'm not that interested in pre-conceived opinions on who I'm supposed to like or not supposed to like.

[-Sue-]

Have to be honest I only know
Biggins (on safari, rentaghost actor panto legend)
Sam fox (page 3 star from back in the day and of course the 1 hit wonder)
James Whale Mr Controversial - Tv & Radio star from back in the 80s-90s and beyond...
Ricky Eastenders

The rest I would have to google..so many of them I would never consider celeb's - just someone who might have been in the news..the others appear to be either no actual talent almost everything on them is fake lets have a shag on telly / or get our clothes off and get famous types...

[Pete.]

Saira - A RTV icon & the star of the Apprentice
Aubrey - A RTV icon & the star of the Apprentice
Frankie - A toxic gay psycho
Samantha - A talented musician & model
Chloe - A talented musician & model

[hot2go]

Biggins....no way near as accomplished as he makes out ....mostly played minor roles as an actor and annoying roles as a celebrity.

[hot2go]

Grant...only famous for being married to a celebrity....caused a commotion when him and Anthea Turner used their wedding photos in Hello Magazine to promote cadburys chocolate after being paid big money to do so....he is all about the money

[hot2go]

Sam Fox....Very Famous in the 80s in the UK and in Europe....much more famous than any of the other British housemates are today....down to Earth girl who's long term girlfriend died last August

This is what I find difficult to understand. How can anyone be proud of being part of a family/organisation that deals in human misery, not to mention murder?

[Beso]

I remember biggins opening our local raft race in the 80's and falling in the river, he floated.

Should have taken advantage of an opportunity like that and tied a bag of gravel around his neck as he tried to make it back to shore .

[Livia]

I know Sam Fox is an ex-glamour model, Grant Bovey is probably described as a "celebrity love rat", Biggins is a much-loved, camp old Queen most famous for IAC, pantomime and having a bit-part in The Rocky Horror Picture Show. James Wale made a career from being a confrontational dinosaur. Heavy D I've only seen once on my Dad's telly when he was watching some show about bidding for stuff in storage units and Heavy D was leaping about wearing a scrum cap and making a **** of himself. Katie Waissel I recall as an attention-seeking, psychologically vulnerable wannabe from the X Factor and Saira only came to my attention when I read in the press that she told her husband he could have sex with other people. I don't know any of the others.

[armand.kay]

Renee - The chick doesn't take any **** but is a kind hearted soul.
Chloe - Misunderstood girl
Frankie - Horrible person / a more conniving perez.
Marnie - Loyal chick, very sexual and flirty.

You can't say that she's much more famous than any of the other british housemates because if you were born in the 90's or younger like me then I have no idea of who she is. To me even Renee is more famous than her becuase i actually saw her before she went on BB or heard about her in the rumours. I would say that Biggins is the most famous

[Chuckyegg]

Sam is most famous.
Teens don't know her but they don't make up a very large proportion of society
even though they prob make up a large proportion of this forum.

Try her on Google images. Squillions of fab pics.

People don't have to be part of someone's generation to be famous....if you haven't heard of her that makes sense if you are too young to know her....but it doesn't diminish how well known she was...Biggins is only famous in this country and even that's for very little. Sam Fox was at the top of her game, Biggins is at the bottom of his.

Yes, but it's nice to know their reputation from people who watched them before...

So you may not end up watching it, you are not interested in other people's opinions... I'm inquisitive as to what it is you're expecting from a Big Brother forum.

[Macie Lightfoot]

someone should just c/p my Frankie post over here bc I'm mobile
