I don't really watch this program despite the fact that it's being
pumped onto us at all times of night and day, but I was reading on the
newspaper that a certain contestant's* agency invoiced channel4 for her
appearance on BB.  Apparently there was an outcry amidst aficionados of
BB that the rules of the program were compromised, because she is not a
normal joe public but an artist (of some sort).

  * I can't recall her name, but she was described as a new entrant who
performed a lewd act using a bottle on the living room floor . . .
puleeeeze!
