Hmmm..

conspiracy thoery.
strikes me that channel 4 might have suspicions about the result for some reason and are hanging on to the money whilst investigating.

Are you suggesting there was something suspicious about Gos's cough?

Guitarman - you could be right! There's actually TWO Camerons!! The smug leery smarmy hypocritical surly vindictive one and the overtly sugary recalcitrant repugnant mendacious one! Which would account for his two-facedness! And C4 can only write one cheque! Unless the two Camerons have a joint account...Cough Cough,,Co-NO!!-ough...etc

My first reaction was laughter at his (hoped-for) discomfiture ......

But then I thought that when you win the pools you get a cheque within days ...... (don't know about the lottery - never won substantially on that) .....

Also it's only £70k - Endemol's weekly lunch bill .....

And surely the presentation of the cheque is performed while the winner is hot - what about previous years ?

The reason the payment has been delayed is simple: Gigi the slut has yet to claim her 10% cut.

Only 10%, then there is 20K for his brother, won't have a lot left, will he.

It was reported today during Cameron's interview at Chris Moyles Radio Show that the money is now in his bank account

It seems "our" winner needed a bit of publicity..

Minus the 30 pieces of silver for the Endemol producers.
Oh, look. A biblical reference. Cameron would be sooo proud.

Both Kate and Brian had to wait for their cash prize for a couple of weeks too. Nine weeks to get the money sorted and they still can't deliver on time.

TV Execs trying to make it look exciting for Joe Public.

Amazing really that they think we are all daft, it takes at least 3/4 working days for BACS transfers.

I could swear I heard Cameron say on more than one ocassion that he couldn't care less about the money. This together with the shocked face he pulled when he checked his balance suggest otherwise...

They could have done it by Telegraphic Transfer and it would take seconds, but it would have cost them £20 extra. No chance of that then!

There was, I thought, a rule that said if you left the big brother house, you couldn't win. Why did we not enforce it, so Cam should not get any money. If he does, he should only get about 90% as he left for a week - and ask him to pay for his air fare.

Firstly, this only applies to evictions because Ray the Paranoid kept harping on about it when Jon returned, i.e. contractual agreements.

Secondly, according to your logic, none of the HMs would be eligible to win as they had all left the house during the bomb scare.

How much interest would you get on seventy grand over two or three weeks?

Endemol - penny pinching until the very end.
