Probe into Big Brother dyslexia jibes
Thursday 2nd July 2009, 7:17AM BST.
Big Brother chiefs are investigating complaints Freddie Fisher’s eviction rival Sree Desari has been poking fun at the Market Drayton housemate’s dyslexia.
Tensions between the pair have been rising as they prepare to go head-to-head in a public phone vote tomorrow to see which of them will be booted out of the house.
Fans of the show complained after seeing 25-year-old Sree mocking “Halfwit” with the words: “You’re a dyslexic student from Oxford – what’s 15 times 15?”
Freddie, 24, was left looking confused, unable to do the sum.
Meanwhile, Big Brother 8 winner Brian Belo has revealed he would like to see an eviction battle between the two Shropshire housemates – Freddie and Shrewsbury man Kris Donnelly.
Brian said: “Kris likes to pick at any little thing Freddie does and magnify it to be the worst crime in the world,” he wrote in the online gossip magazine Heatworld.
He added: “When he (Kris) does eventually leave, I want him up against Halfwit, one on one. Can you imagine how livid he’ll be if he’s evicted over his arch-nemesis?”
The scorching weather yesterday got the better of the housemates as Freddie found himself embroiled in blazing a row with Lisa in the garden.
