No, not now, back in the mid Ch4 era i might have fantasized about going in - thats all i could do as even if i wanted to i'd never be allowed for medical reasons. But even if i was 100% fit i would not be interested now.

I wouldn't go in myself but in 2007 BBAU Ch10, Endemol Southern Star, and Masterfoods announced "Australia's biggest ever integrated television promotion", the Big Brother Starburst Golden Key. They placed 100 unique codes in packets of starburst a a confectionery made by Masterfoods, one would become a HM. I wonder where they got that promotion from? BB7UK?

Anyway I got one of the codes in a packet and entered it into the website and low and behold it worked. I entered my daughters details because she was keen to do it and was trying herself. She didn't go in the house but was in a TV promotion and got a free holiday to Dreamworld and was required to be in the audience. True story!

Nope. I would enjoy meeting the other HM but it all comes down to the editing. I would be edited very badly

I'd do the Canadian/American version in a heartbeat!

Would never do our version, though. Firstly, no live feed is a massive deal - BB has full control over you and can pretty much get you evicted whenever they please via the edit/manipulation.

Secondly, it's a popularity contest and I don't think I have a winning personality. I'm competitive and would want to win - that attitude alone would have me hated by the UK viewers.

I'd rather shove knitting needles in my eyes tha ever be on a reality tv show. I don't understand the need to be famous. I value my privacy and dignity far too much

I would like to do it, If only it wasn't broadcast on TV.. just for the experience, but that kinda defeats the purpose. so their is no way. even for a tax free million.

shipwrecked is the reality show i think looked the most fun to do.

Well this will probably make me sound big headed, but I think I'd be decent in there. I don't take many things seriously, and I'd just have a laugh. Id probably be hated though, all the opinionated people are.

I never seen that, I've tried to find old episodes online but I've had no luck. Bear was on it, right?

Depends what is meant by "medical reasons" I suppose because in the past there have been a fair few people in the house who have had ( or got ) medical reasons related to mental difficulties and there will doubtless be more to come - and some have even won !

And I hasten to add that I am not suggesting for a minute that you might be in that category ( in fact I know you are not ) - I am simply making a general point !

Yes I take your point - sorry but I couldn't resist.

And before you mention it yes I am aware of " little things" and all that

But what matters is that the medication keeps you going - I nearly live at the hospital in recent years - so much so that I keep hoping that they will give me a payslip because they think I work there !

I'd have loved to have done it during the Channel 4 era.
Channel 5 era is just too negative, I don't mind watching it, but I don't think I could last a week in there, shame really because I've always wanted to do it.

I would have when it first started. I would have fitted in with the earlier housemates and loads of booze. But I would never do it with the later lot of ego maniacs they put in these days.
