Why did you apply to be on this new series of Big Brother?
Initially I found the ad while I was scrolling online. I’d just finished a job I was doing and thought ‘let’s just apply for it and see what happens.’ I didn’t think I’d get this far to be honest. And it’s so exciting. I just want a real fun experience, a totally new out of my remit type. Secondly, I’d like to fly the flag for British farming.
What do you think you’ll bring to the House?
I think I’ll be quite different than the Housemates as I suspect there isn’t another sort of country bumpkin-esque figure and I’m quite looking forward to meeting new people. I think I’ll hopefully bring a bit of leadership to the house.
What are you looking forward to the most about being a Housemate?
I’m looking forward to a whole new experience. I do want to get past the first week and I’d quite like to do an eviction. I’m looking forward to going into the Diary Room to say who I want to nominate.
Do you have a strategy for making it to the final?
I guess it sounds quite boring but just being myself. I think if you try to put on a persona you’re going to get found out – you can’t keep that up. I just want to enjoy the experience. If I make friends I make friends, if I make enemies I make enemies.
What are you most likely to get nominated for?
I don’t really know. I suppose I’ll have to find out.
Tell us one thing about yourself you think will surprise people the most.
I think people will be surprised at how reasonable I am. I feel a lot of people think I’m a bit single minded but I’m quite happy to take two views.
What would you do with the money if you won?
I applied not really thinking about the money because I love the show and wanted to do it. But I’d probably put it in savings and use it for impending bills.
