...for breaking her leg in the mouse save and replace task.

Unfortunately the whole story is behind the Sun's paywall, so I can't link to it. If anyone has a Sun there may be further details there.

My main memory is of Corin refusing to stop the task because, as she cheerily called out, "I'm sorry, but I HAVE to win this!" - as Keeley lay with a broken leg and Rachel sat and comforted her. Not Corin's finest hour...

Here's bbspy's report...

I liked Keeley. Always remember her driving that little car for some sort of superheroes task.

Size three feet! Who has size three feet? Was she 4ft tall?

Well her nickname was Polly Pocket.

I never even noticed she was small. She must have looked like a munchkin next to Josie.

Eeh, there's nowt like a bit of healthy competetive spirit, is there?

not a bad little claim-up that

Her surname wasn't Baggins by any chance, was it?

I remember that task ... it seemed a pretty impossible thing to achieve. Especially for someone as little as her.

I liked Keeley, even though she wasn't in it long (I think she came later in the series, didn't she?) I recall Steve (the ex-soldier who'd lost a leg) seemed pretty taken with her.

Well my memory is that Keeley was asked if they should stop but she told her to carry on. ( one of us will be right )

It's interesting that the eviction was cancelled that week.

Thanks for the link
Maybe the eviction was cancelled because they lost Keeva that week as well as Keeley. They lost rather a lot of female housemates that year.

Interesting that two of the forums most vilified housemates were the only ones who helped her, whereas forum darlings, Ben and Corin, clearly couldn't have cared less!

what a shocker that a task like that ended up with an injury, it looks like there is absolutely nothing that could go wrong there

Yeah, I remember Keeley saying something along the lines of that she didn't have a problem with Corin carrying on the task. And to be fair, nobody not even Keeley knew how bad her injury was at that point.

I quite liked Keeley, and I think it's a pity she wasn't in longer. If I remember rightly on the week which resulted in her injury they decided to retroactively void her nominations after nominations had taken place. In what I'm sure was entirely a coincidence, voiding her nominations just happened to save old Crab Eyes from being up for the public vote that week.

LOL I don't think you have to be an actual Munchkin to have feet that size.

My girlfriend has size 3 feet and my sister in law does. Both are a tad shorter than me. I am 5'2" with clod hopping size 4.5 feet.

I thought at the time it was quite comical how Corin carried on with the task, and I still do.

I know a lot of people on here hated Save and Replace, but it was, in my opinion, one of the best innovations they introduced. The psychology of it was interesting; "Hurrah, I've just saved myself ... oh, hang on, I've got to name someone, and make an enemy for life".

I have to admit that was one of my series highlights from a bloody godawful series. I really didn't understand the fuss that was made of Corin carrying on. Crabeyes had gone all Mitch Buchanan and the last thing she needed was seven or eight of them fighting for Florence Nightingale points.

Corin was very apologetic as she continued to scramble madly.

Another funny BB moment that resulted in uproar & mass debate on this forum at the time over whether or not Corin should have carried on.

What made it all the more funny was the sight of her frantically scurrying in a spider outfit as if her life depended on it - had it been any other task it wouldn't have had the same comedic effect

I remember that vividly and thought before the task how it would be near to impossible for her. She didn't have a chance. I really liked her, and hoped she stayed there longer.

Random, but looking back, she really reminds me of a character called Hilary on newer series of The Tomorrow People. (Alexa PenaVega).

Ouch. First time I've ever seen that and I definitely sympathise as I've got a broken ankle myself at the moment.

My friends sister has size 3 feet and she's 5'7" - it's very odd

Does she have enormous tits by any chance?

Nothing grows in the shade, according to Dolly Parton

ETA soz to hear about your ankle

I remeber this and thought at the time it was just a sprain.

Loved Corin's oomph in that series. Always up early and groomed to face the day ahead.

She was one of my favourites

Corin the psychopath

She had a great arse.

It always seemed obvious to me that it was a year too late. It was introduced because people combusted about Freddie being up week after week the year before, so whoever was up with him always went. Only in BB11 the nominations were pretty well all over the place, and all it meant was that Dave (probably) escaped being out first and ended up coming second.

She certainly divided opinion. I never really bought her perma-cheery act. There was the strange case of the girlfriend who went from 'part of the family' to nothing at all that couldn't be chucked out if a handsome, single man came into the house; and there was an incident when for some reason - I forget why - the others suggested that Corin might give up her make-up for the good of the house, and a layer of permafrost formed so rapidly that they backed off in fear and never mentioned it again.
