Big Brother Hijack: How evil is Matt Lucas? Big Brother has started on our screens again, and it's full of random 'talented' kids, aged 18-21. the twist though is that celebs can control the inner workings of the housemates, and here we have the inaugural episode where Matt Lucas made John. the Scottish wannabe politician crawl on the floor, say 'Cake' a lot and try and hit on the male members of the house. You can't look away.. but you do cringe a lot. I wonder if this will be the next Whitehall scandal a la Galloway. Tweet
