James Cosmo surely the biggest British celeb ever to enter the house

Just seen who's gone in.

Most of this lot were unpopular the first time round and I've no idea what mid-Atlantic Calum Best is doing as favourite. He finished third behind Katies Price and Hopkins ffs!

Austin Armascost became more likeable as his series rolled on and was only beaten by James Hill. That's way stronger form, as is Speidi's second to Rylan. They'd have easily won a lot of series.

Austin stands out as the only genuinely decent guy in a sea of shite, although don't know much about Ray J, Brandon Block, James Cosmo and Stacy Francis tbh.

Was thinking along the same lines with Austin, although I lent more towards his bromance with James giving him a lot of support and obviously changed the way he acted and was portrayed in the house, he is single now but looks like no lovable rouge available to share a bromance with this time.

God knows as well what the producers have in store for this lot and how it will affect the outcome, I predict with it being old and new that  all sorts  of bombs will be thrown in at the last minute.

My wife wanted to put a bet on James Cosmo, didn't even ask why, just put it on for her, now I see he was in GoT and it all makes sense.

Good luck if you try working out anything sensible for this addictive car crash tv show.

James was a huge deal back in the day, not seen game of thrones but believe it has given him Street cred and young fans too

I'll be honest, I'd never heard of him.

Crazy how even though he appears in some huge Hollywood blockbusters he's always come back to do regular British TV in between. Kinda makes a bit mores sense he'd go in to the house.

Yeah this.  I recognise him though. 

Given half this lot have been in before, and half the others barely qualify, then they seem to be running short of celebrities.  Guess there aren't going to be many more series.

I had a look through the list and had to look up on Wikipedia who most of them were - amazing how many of them are only 'famous' due to having slept with someone who has a better claim to being a celebrity.

Think Speidi should be clear favourites here.

Their gameplaying USA ways wouldn't have had a chance five years ago but that's gone full circle. It's a short course and you have to make a mark. They were off the charts with some of the behaviour in Rylan's series, all pre-planned.

So comedy Calum being the early favourite. The current crop of specials punters who set the betty market are miles inferior to the original batch. Wouldn't have happened under Sunset.

Spidey about to go favourite. They'll get way more coverage than anyone this series.

Ray J looked interesting after day one, but he honestly believed his moment with Kim Kardashian was the biggest thing to happen on this planet. Ever. Dick.

No idea why Coleen has come in for support. Same comment Angie.

Something must have happened in the last 24 hours for James 'straight' Jordan to shorten up so dramatically.

Someone wants the world on him at 7.8.

He is all over the papers after a row with Austin and complaints of him making homophobic comments

All publicity is good publicity in the world of cbb it seems
