Big Brother Second Chance Housemates

We thought we'd seen these lot somewhere before!

When housemates leave or are kicked out of the Big Brother house before being evicted, it can cause a problem for producers.

With a set amount of weeks to fill, how are they supposed to continue storylines and the show as a whole with a smaller cast? Add new housemates, that's how!

After Lotan and Kayleigh were booted out and Arthur walked, producers had to do something and so they added Savannah and Isabelle, but now four new people are heading in and you will 100% recognise them.

That's because the four 'Second Chance housemates are actually the ones who weren't selected to join the house on launch night. The four competed with Tom to become The People's Housemate and whilst he eventually won an entered the house, the rest are now getting a chance too.

Revealing the twist on BBBOTS, Rylan explained, "Tomorrow night, one housemate will be leaving the show but whilst Big Brother may taketh with one hand, he giveth with the other. We have not one, not two, not three, but four brand new housemates entering the Big Brother house."

"When I say brand new housemates, their faces might be a bit familiar. A hurricane is coming, ladies and gentlemen. They might have missed out the first time but tomorrow night, Sam, Simone, Andrew and hurricane Sue will be entering the Big Brother house as Second Chance housemates."

Speaking about their characters, Rylan went on to add, "Obviously I know Andrew, Simone and Sue, I know them all because they were at the election at launch night. All three of them – and this is obviously behind the scenes during the breaks – they are great characters. I’m looking forward to seeing them on the show."

But having paid to vote Tom into the house ahead of the other four on opening night, many fans are now annoyed that their vote seems to have been completely pointless...

Even though there are loads of people annoyed by the additional housemates going in, it seems there are also a number of people who are here for it and one has already become an early fan favourite...Sue!
