Big Brother 2009: Charlie, 22, Customer Service Advisor

As camp as Christmas and willing to strip at the drop of a hat…

Okay crew, set phasers to camp – it’s time for a gay-off! When Charlie arrives in a room there’s no doubt that he’s ‘arrived’.

Like a child who’s eaten half a kilo of fizzy cola bottles, Charlie is as camp, chatty and engaging as it is possible to get. And his proudest moment – oh, it brings a tear to our eyes – was when he won the Best Easter Egg competition at school.

Winning competitions seems to be a bit of a theme for our Charlie – he won Mr Gay Newcastle and was a runner up in Mr Gay UK. Unsurprisingly, Charlie has been known to take his clothes off and dance in his pants in some of Newcastle’s nightclubs. Of course, he’s got some bad habits – snoring, picking his nose, biting his nails etc.

And he’s alarmingly candid and eerily precise about his sexual conquests – 69 men and 103 women. Hmm, we’re wondering about that ‘103 women’ statistic. That’s a mighty large number of women for a ‘gay’ man. Is there something Charlie’s not telling us?
