Craig you have to be THE greatest and most deserving Big Brother winner of all time! Such a genuine, decent, proper guy not the usual attention seeking Muppet. You and the other contestants truly introduced a massive permanent change in TV history and entertainment in general, introducing Reality TV to the UK. I have always been a massive Big Brother fan from the very start, bit of a superfan to be honest, so i think my judgement should ring true. Glad to see you have a channel too so im defo subscribing!

[@MrandMrsDIY]

Thank you for your kind words mate, we're pleased you found our channel and thanks for subscribing!

Well l wouldn't pass the phycological report 🙈 and l have enough trouble being Jane Newman let alone being on national TV. You did really well though and it hasn't gone to your head 🙂your a genuinely nice person, glad you won even though l only saw the end when you actually won and l was really touched by what you did for the young girl that was kind . Be alot easier for people going in the big brother House form when you did because we have been in a pandemic were were not aloud out 😲

[@MrandMrsDIY]

I'm sure you'd do great! Thanks Jane, I appreciate the kind words!

Hi. I am looking to apply next year. I think I would be really good for it because of a lot of reasons really, but I also have a couple of health issues. However, I did see that one of the contestants this year is Neurodivergent and there has been people with known diagnosed illnesses. And also, if I was in there and finding it too much, I needed five minutes away if everybody was arguing and it was too much would I get to go and sit in the diary room just to calm down for a while with out having to leave quickly. That would be the one stipulation in the worry, I would have is not being able to get away and facing potential triggers. If I had a way I could run to the dining room for some space in, I think I could do it. Diary room sorry not to dining room LOL

[@MrandMrsDIY]

Amazing! I'd apply anyway and see how you get on!

When you were in the house, did you think you had a chance of winning? What I mean is “when you were just sat there did you think I might actually might have a chance of winning this?”

[@MrandMrsDIY]

I didn't at first, but after the first 7 weeks getting nominated I started to feel I'm staying! then one morning about 10 days for the end of the show I woke up and had feeling that I was going to win!

[@artvampire5421]

@@MrandMrsDIY so towards the end, you started to feel a lot more confident about winning.

[@MrandMrsDIY]

@@artvampire5421 Yes a certainly did

Hi Craig, I really hoped the show wouldn't surface again. No disrespect to you whatsoever the original winner. I believe the show should have been a one off special. I think these shows and other reality programs only cause harm and distress. I'm pretty sure when you applied, you didn't think of becoming a celebrity?. I'm 100% sure now, that everyone that applies will want to be a celebrity. Love the DIY stuff btw 😄

[@MrandMrsDIY]

Yes I think the first was more of an experiment than an outright entertainment show. Thanks Simon!
