Lisa Appleton praises Big Brother's Hussain Ahmed as a 'wind up merchant' who's 'just having fun'

Fresh from her appearance on Big Brother’s Bit on the Side, Lisa Appleton is delighted with the two new housemates.

She says she can see “right through” Hussain Ahmed, calling him a “wind up merchant” for the way he has been acting since entering the house on Friday.

He's entered the house as an outsider with the bookies at 28/1, but Lisa reckons that his popularity will rise over time.

In her latest Reality Bite vlog (below). Lisa said: “He’s come in with this theme ‘the king’ and the other housemates think it’s really egotistical, thinking is he a bit of a big head? But really he’s just having some fun. I don’t blame him. You’ve got to liven up the house.”

She continues: “He’s got this cheeky way of being able to get away with it. I think he could prove pretty popular.”

Moving onto the second new housemate, Isabella Farnese—who has entered the betting favourably at 11/2 with William Hill—Lisa says she is “a stunner”.

“She’s beautiful, what a stunner,” says Lisa. “She’s gone into the house confident and comfortable which is quite hard to do. She seems popular. 

“The housemates are paranoid that they’ve been watching the show. Of course they’ve been watching. They can see through you all as well.

“Let the games begin.”
