Everybody’s been there - you’re with someone who’s struggling to sleep so naturally when they leave the room you think it’s a brilliant idea to move their mattress to the toilet. You settle back down to admire your comic genius only to find that nobody else in the room is laughing.

Well, we’ve never actually found ourselves in that situation but Cairon, the man we identified as the most-likely winner of this year’s Big Brother, upset many of his fellow housemates by making that mistake on last night’s show.

Our first impressions of this year’s Big Brother contestants

Aisleyne-a-like: Noirin could be this year’s Kate (winner, series three) or Aisleyne (third, series seven), a  good-looking girl who is liked by women.

Our plan to ensure we survived Big Brother launch night wasn’t a complete success. We managed to last the course but struggled to initially remember more than a handful of names (why not make them wear name tags for the first week, considering they don’t remember each other’s either?).

One of the trend points we made in our preview was that any nationality can triumph and the producers decided to go for an international blend this year with contestants from Ireland (Noirin), Brazil (Rodrigo), Russia (Angel), Pakistan (Beinazir), America (Cairon), Scotland (Karly), Iran (Siavash), India (Sree) and England of course.
