| Please don't kneecap me again Claire, but I can't resist this one
The Independent is reporting the following:
http://news.independent.co.uk/people/pandora/article2162835.ece
Word has it that the latest addition to this rather shabby series of Celebrity Big Brother is uber-paparazzo Darren Lyons, the c**katoo-haired boss of the Big Pictures sleb photo agency.
Viewers of the pap's late-night television series may recall his "forthright" opinions and abrasive management style.
And Lyons has a head start on the other housemates: his friends cackle that he knows all about the racism row that has sparked rioting on the streets of India, and that he plans to wind up the other housemates (who are banned from knowledge of the outside world).
"Jade Goody's in the firing line," says a pal. "The contestants are about as sharp as bath sponges and probably won't realise Darren got rich by selling pictures of them falling over drunk with their nipples hanging out."
It's being reported on DSBB as well, (apparently the Sun has him as one of three names too) though as of a few minutes ago they were still a bit vague about who he is! And they certainly weren't aware of his Aisleyne connection! Maybe someone should go tell 'em!
Any comment, Claire?

He'd make a good housemate. I might even watch it then. 
Thanks ofni!  |

| I see the rude word detector is set at very very safe- c o c k atoo?). (Though it allowed "nipples"
The Sun apparently says Mark Bosnich is one of the others. TWO Aussies? Strewth!

Yet it let Jade Goody's nipples show, perhaps it needs some adjusting. |

And tells Jade Goody "You better know yourself if you're talking about Shilpa like that, little girl".  |

| Hi Guys,
I can't believe how quickly you all pick up on press, your sources must be incredible! I'm afraid i can't confirm that Darryn is going into the house! As far as we're concerned, Darryn is still in Australia.

| Thanks Claire.
Regardless of whether he goes into the BB house or not, you can still catch him on his new AOL show...

I only just found out about this while looking for more info on the BB story. |

Of course not,as secrecy must be maintained if it were true. And I've still got my kneecaps. Hmm. |

They could use more pictures of Aisleyne if he goes into the house. I'm not saying he's not good-looking, but I think the Daily Star would prefer to print pictures of Aisleyne rather than pictures of him. They can use the link between them as an angle.
So if any Daily Star reporters are reading... |

| Yes, maringo I was thinking the very same thing. And remember how they've often seemed to use any excuse to include Ash's picture in "general" BB7 stories? |

Daily Star exclusive! BB7 loser Jayne Kitt takes over from Danielle Lloyd as the face of Bennetts Motorcycle Insurance. But never mind that, here's a photo of fellow BB7 housemate Aisleyne Horgan-Wallace in a bikini. |

Did you see the bit where it says he is now IN the house..? I hav,nt looked, seen or asked yet...first post , first look..so I definately will be watching Darryn. We have to support him...as he is looking after our AISLEYNE....so everybody will just have to break the rules for a bit... Including me and you. |

I've just watched BBLB. He's not in just yet.
He was supposed to be going in late in the week, but other events changed that. He might not go in at all now. |

Location: Scottish Borders | I doubt they'll put any new people in now. There's only a week left, and there would be too many people to evict before the final.
I don't know what they were planning originally. I suspect if Donny, Ken and Leo hadn't have walked they would have had more midweek evictions and double evictions to whittle them down?
I suppose they might put someone in as a guest but not tell the hms they didn't have a chance of winning?

| Hummm.
Looks like its the waiting room for me then..
 |

|
| Well in the Gossip thread you will see I have read that a newspaper has said Darryn is definately going in tonight...I wonder how many times I WILL say ...he is, he is,nt he is, he is,nt.. |
|
| |
|
| I doubt it somehow, what would be the point at this stage, personally I don't think it would be a good idea. He seems quite quirky, perhaps he would be liked, if not it will be another reason for haterz to ridicule Ash. |
|
| |
|
| I don't think "being liked" is terribly high on Darryn's priority list. And hatterz don't need ANY reason whatsoever to have a go at Aisleyne. They merely confirm what we already know, Aisleyne is "unforgettable"!
And if DL DOES go in, even for just a week, I don't think HE'LL be easily forgotten either!

| Today's Daily Star says...
"TV bosses have “delayed indefinitely” plans to put two new housemates on the show. American trannie Alexis Arquette, 37, and “Mr Paparazzi” Darryn Lyons, 40, were due to go in at the weekend."
So he's not going in now.  |

| However, the Geelong Advertiser says he is going in tonight...

So who do you trust more? The Daily Star or the Geelong Advertiser? |

| Ah! many's the happy hour I have spent perusing the worthy pages of the blessed Geelong Advertiser.
You can't beat it for picking up a nearly new tuckerbag for next to nothing! |

The DL story makes the front page of the paper, so they're pretty confident about it. 
The following sentence is quite interesting...
--Mr Gregorio suspected Lyons had been head hunted to join the show because he knew Shetty "quite well".--
How well is "quite well" exactly? |

| ofni - 22/1/2007 15:57 Drat and Triple Drat Oh I feel the same Ofni, you have said it for both of us. I would really love Darryn to go in. I hope Maringo is right about the Geelong Advertiser... |

| "Reverse Ferrett" on DS, who never gets it wrong, says that Lyons, Arquette, and Bosnich have been sent home from their hotels after being holed up there for a week. No new HMs will be joining the show. |
|
| |
|
| Thanx for that Bengos. I am disappointed of course personally, because the whole show is just boring, bothered and stumbling now in my view. I think the new housemates could have turned over a fresher look at things and in some respects put some other things to rest for a while at least. Never mind. |

| Thank you for posting that link Maringo... Doh! thats all I can say to THAT report...!! It makes BB seem totally superficial now. Anyone who votes or spends one penny on voting is a complete fool unless of course they love Shilpa. I am truly.................. ....... .......... I wont be voting ever again. |

| Here's the latest update from the Geelong Advertiser...
http://www.geelongadvertiser.com.au/article/2007/01/27/1093_news.ht...
Quote: "It is believed Lyons will still pocket about $380,000 for his non-appearance after Channel 4 agreed to pay out his contract."
That's works out at £150,000.
Nice pay for a week in a luxurious hotel room. |
|
| |
|
| ...and they say time is money...
truth in that then... |
|
| |
|
| It probably cost him more than that in lost wheeling/dealing time, and lost publicity value. So I reckon Channel/endemol still owe him big-time. A few TV appearnces for Aisleyne would be some compensation however ............. |
