Jack Tweedy and Danielle TaylorAt last the Big Brother final has arrived and the 6 remaining celebrities started to come out. First out of the house, were Jack Tweedy and Danielle Taylor (in 6th and 5th places respectively) and they were greeted to very raucous boos and yet again to footage of the bullying incidents in the house. Danielle, who was quite easily led, was genuinely shocked and remorseful of her actions and said the one thing she had learned form the house was “Not to be a Bitch”. Jack admitted that he did not like Shilpa to start with but gradually grew to love her.

Ian Watkins and Dirk Benedict Next out (and in 4th place) was Ian Watkins, the only housemate to have received a full set of cheers from the house. He was well liked and the person I will most miss. He started off his time in the house after coming out to the papers about his homosexuality, so it was a testing time for him. He managed to keep out of the rows and became very close to Shilpa. When a sequence of his time in the house was shown, it was obvious how much fun there had been, from impersonating a boring person doing Rick Astley impressions, to doing “Steps” routines and posing around the house with weights.

Dirk Benedict, with trademark cigar came third in the contest and was greeted by the crowd with their own particular rendition of the theme from “The A Team”. Dirk’s dry sense of humour, exhuberant dancing and iconic status made him popular with the British Audience. Dirk had clearly become besotted with Shilpa and during his interview with Davina McCall, said this was because she was elegant, intelligent, adaptable and could cook too!

Jermaine JacksonJermaine Jackson was announced as runner-up and was widely regarded as being the peacekeeper and sage of the house. In his aftershow interview, he admitted that he did not like conflict and found strength in kindness. He said that he really did not know what he was getting into before he joined the show, but enjoyed it. He also revealed that he was planning on making a musical about the Jackson family and that it would be first shown in the UK
