Big Brother brings together a group of strangers from all walks of life to live under one roof, where dozens of cameras record their every move 24-hours a day, seven days a week. With no contact from the outside world, the housemates compete in the ultimate popularity contest. Their personalities are exposed through unlikely friendships, diary room revelations and challenges, to determine who will receive special privileges and who will be nominated for eviction.

It was the first time flirtatious Melanie had been up for eviction, and just 7 days before the finale she so desperatley wanted to reach came around, she was choosen to leave. A teary, yet vibrant Mel left the Big Brother house live on Channel 4 to cheers from her family and from Davina, aswell as the now frantic british press. The cheers didnt last, a moody crowed booed her all the way to the studio and she was clearly upset, but refused to let it ruin her time in the limelight and posed for the press confidently. In a frank interview with Davina, Melanie revealed how she really felt about Claire, and how exactly she intends to follow up on the romances she had with Tom and Andrew.
