As Dermot presented the original spin-off show, Big Brother’s Little Brother, he couldn’t miss out on the fun.

The series, which continues next week, is hosted by Davina McCall and Rylan Clark-Neal.

Both Davina and Rylan filmed it from their own homes, due to the lockdown restrictions, so Dermot called in several times for a chat.

The first four shows were definitely a hit with fans and even left some wondering if it is set to return. 

Big Brother U-turn

Public opinion has also changed over the years, with viewers doing a U-turn on the Nasty Nick scandal.

Nick Bateman appeared on the first series of Big Brother in 2000 and was caught writing names on pieces of paper.

He had then shown individual housemates them in hope of influencing their nominations.

However, the incident backfired.

He ended up being branded ‘the most hated man in Britain’.

Not-so Nasty Nick

This week, however, viewers watched it back and many were left “feeling sorry” for poor Nick.

One tweeted: “I remember seeing that episode of @bbuk from the first series, when Nick was confronted by the other housemates.

“Watching it back, if you didn’t know the context of the confrontation, you’d think he’d punched a child or something.”
