It has apparently been confirmed that Bez of Happy Mondays fame will be in the house.
Now, its possible he may not even be in it.
But im laying my cards down on the table now and saying "Bez to Win!".
This guy is going to be comedy gold when he gets in that house.
He will not do anything for Big Brother that he doesnt want to do.
I can see him getting very drunk and going mad and believe if hes in there, he will make the show.
Watch this space!.

He is in it, Rowetta Satchell posted on the DS X factor last night that she's going down to Elstree to watch him enter the house tonight. I'm not into the Happy Mondays so the only thing I know about Bez is that he drinks a lot and danced like a lunatic when on stage

the amount of alcohol he's consumed in his life, I'd imagine he'd be quite tolerant to the relatively small amounts endermol are willing to provide, so dont expect to see him drunk much.

I agree with you to a point, but think he may be one of those polarising characters that you either love or hate. One thing is certain though I do think he will be a talking point.

There isnt much more to know!

A proper legend in the house, that's better.

Great TV if the child from the boy band is in there. Maybe he could beat him to death on live TV I'd watch it.

jobs a goodun as bez would say, my moneys on him smuggling some e's and mushrooms in and getting mark bosnich into trouble again

Yeah.

The original freaky dancer to win.

I think Bossers can look at Bez and think, 'Wow, good job I stopped, lucky escape!!'

He's got man breasts has Mark, but Bez is brilliantly f**ked in the head.

Out of the expected line-up, I hope either Bos or Bez (some sort of connection?) win.

Is his "real name" Clive or Nigel?

How clever! Not that by refusing to do something "just because I don't want to" isn't in some kind of inverse way actually following a set of rules anyway.

I wait for the "He makes his own rules" BS to follow...

That said if it's a straight fight between him and that boy 'band' person, I'll be cheering Nigel on!

Bez's real name is Mark Berry. And my mates have been down the bookies already

Bez is a walking drug factory.. he'll sleep and talk sheet most of the time

Just like every other HM before him then

I fear the worst with this series.....I married the double of Mark Bosnich (didnt know it at the time though!!).

Come on Bez! At 7/2 on Paddy Power, 4/1 on BlueSQ.com and 9/2 on Bet365.com, he's got to be worth a couple of quid!

Even more interesting though, Eddie Irvine's quoted as favourite on most of the sites... could this be the big swerve to get someone remotely famous in?

What happened to Craig Charles? Id heard the rumour he was in. As for Eddie, Id be surprised to be honest. They have stated that a percentage of phone money will go to the tsunami charities so I suppose that could sway a bigger celeb...

Craig Charles is still a possibility, but with him joining up for the Games at some point, I'd doubt he'd go for CBB. If he does, I'll at least have a choice of who to like.

I was really hoping for David Icke, how would he get his head round Bez, or vice versa

Bez is 4/1 here: http://www.bluesq.com/bet?action=go_events&type_id=1951

Are we going to be stuck with Rowetta as a "celebrity supporter" for 2 weeks then? :yawn:

agreed...David Icke could have been hilarious. Fingers crossed we do get Craig, nice bloke!

Lets hope Bez takes out the boy band twerp!

Why all the support for Bez?? Whats he done apart from being a junkie?

how can you pick who you want to win before it has even started. he might not be a nice person.

If he's anything like the public persona he has presented throughout his career, I can't understand the enthusiasm. He's just a less famous version of BB1's Craig!
