I think the producers of the show have really missed a trick with the evictions. Instead of booing or cheering when someone is evicted there should be deadly silenced followed by a single gunshot. I think that would give the rest of the housemates a few sleepless nights.

Fifteen people including former Conservative MP Craig Williams have been charged with betting offences by the Gambling Commission. The investigation was launched last year following bets placed on the timing of the 2024 general election.

The commission said the investigation focused on individuals "suspected of using confidential information - specifically advance knowledge of the proposed election date - to gain an unfair advantage in betting markets".

Before the election was called, Williams was the MP for Montgomeryshire and an aide to then-Prime Minister Rishi Sunak. The group of those charged includes Russell George, a Member of the Senedd, who was suspended from the Welsh Conservative group after he was charged. Others charged include Laura Saunders, the former Conservative parliamentary candidate in Bristol North West, and her partner Anthony Lee, a former director of campaigning for the Conservatives; Thomas James, the director of the Welsh Conservatives and Nick Mason, a former chief data officer for the party.

Another of those "nothing to see here" events, finally getting the attention is deserves.

A former MP, who was the first to be evicted from the current series of Celebrity Big Brother, has told the BBC he was paid "six figures" for taking part in the show.

[...]

Sir Michael [Fabricant] would not confirm the exact amount he was paid to appear on Celebrity Big Brother, saying he was contractually obliged not to reveal the figure.

He added he hoped that drag performer Danny Beard would win, but that he was "not that friendly" with TV presenter Trisha Goddard or EastEnders actor Patsy Palmer while in the house.
