Big Brother awaits new contestant

viernes, 20 de junio de 2008 |

A new contestant will enter the Big Brother house to replace Alexandra De-Gale who was booted off the show, it has been revealed.

The new housemate will join the others after host Davina McCall's interview with Alexandra is screened on Friday.

The 23-year-old was thrown off the show for intimidating other housemates.

Channel 4 said that, following nominations, the accounts executive had threatened housemates with punishment from her "gangster friends".

As a result of her departure, Friday's planned eviction has been cancelled.

She had been up for the second public vote of the ninth series with Mario Marconi.

Hundreds of Big Brother fans recently complained to media watchdog Ofcom about alleged bullying by Alexandra.

Ofcom received 433 complaints about Alexandra's behaviour after an argument with three fellow contestants.

Big Brother reprimanded her over the incident in which she launched a volley of abuse at a housemate over burnt chips.

Channel 4 said Alexandra's eviction was watched by 4.72m viewers, the highest ratings since the series' opening night two weeks ago.
