Big Brother 5, 2004
Big Brother 5 Will be Remembered For:
Big Brother Turns Evil
Trailed as "Big Brother turns evil", it was controversial from the start. The house was smaller and more claustrophobic; there was one bedroom. One of the central twists to Big Brother in 2004 was the fluctuating prize fund. Housemates could either win or lose money depending on how well they completed the task. As the winner, Nadia received £63,500, meaning that the housemates lost £36,500 during the 71 day run of the programme. The housemates lost £9,000 during week one. Kitten was ejected from the Big Brother house, but she refused to leave. Big Brother decided to drop £1,000 from the prize fund for every minute that Kitten remained in the house. She stayed inside the house for nine minutes and the housemates lost £9,000. At the end of week one, the prize was £91,000. During the weekly task, the housemates lost £6,000. The total after week two was £85,000.
The Bed-sit
Week 2 This week, housemates were told there was a double eviction, and the two housemates to be evicted were Emma and Michelle. In reality, the public had been voting which two housemates enter a secret Big Brother Bed sit, in which the two evictees would live for five days, and be able to watch their fellow housemates on a television screen, and then return to the house, still able to win the prize money. After Emma and Michelle's return to the house, scenes of aggression and violence erupted resulting in on-site security staff having to enter the house for the first time in the show's history. Emma was moved back to the bed-sit and later evicted permanently.
The Judas Kiss
Week 6 On Day 40, a major row broke out between Michelle and Becki when Michelle saw a plane flying over the garden with the message, "The Sun - Only Becki nominated Michelle." Michelle decided to steal the Diary Room camera and attempted to incinerate it using a match. Because the camera base is fireproof, this did not work. As punishment for this, Michelle was given her "first and final warning" and Big Brother burnt Stuart's cowboy hat, as Stuart sat behind the sofa in horror.
Jungle Cats, also referred to as the JC's, were the clique that were prominent in BB5. The group consisted of a trio who were Ahmed, Jason and Victor. Stuart was also initially part of the Jungle Cats, yet became more of a jungle kitten than a jungle cat as his relationship with Michelle developed whilst in the house. They were seen as the masculine peoples favourite clique as opposed to the feminine peoples clique represented by the Jungle Cats rivals the Lip Gloss Bitches who were founded by Marco.
Big Brother 5 Housemates
Winner
|
Nadia
Best-known for being the first transsexual winner, Nadia, as expected by all the bookmakers (she was favourite for six weeks) won Big Brother (UK) 2004 with 74% of the vote. She was greeted by an adoring crowd who chanted her name.
Winning the programme was of great importance to Nadia, not because of the prize money, but for the chance to be accepted by society as a woman. In the house she kept her past a secret from her housemates, although the production team and the audience knew, as did a Becki who entered the house some weeks into the competition.

Dan

Dan was good friends with Jason and got on well with everyone in the house. He was known as the peace maker of the house, often resolving many of the arguments that went on in the house. |
4th in Final

Shell
Received 9% of the Vote to Win
Shell received her University Degree results in the house, Big Brother rewarded her with a graduation party. She will be known as the housemate who ran around naked in the Big Brother garden mowing the lawn. |
7th Evicted
|
Stuart
In the final week the housemate with the least public votes to win would be evicted in a surprise eviction during a party. Stuart was this housemate with receiving 7% of the vote to win, leaving Dan, Jason, Nadia and Shell in the final four. He was told he was to leave immediately, without saying goodbye to the remaining housemates. He received a rapturous reception upon leaving the Big Brother house. |
6th Evicted
|
Michelle
The series was notable for Michelle's romance with Stuart Wilson. It is widely believed that they were the first couple to have full penetrative sex on the main Big Brother UK show (this having already taken place on Teen Big Brother in 2003), following two incidents where they made a crude tent under the dining table and discarded their microphones
During the Wedding task Michelle, ad-libbed her way through the classical Pie Jesu.
All housemates faced eviction automatically. Michelle was Evicted with 67% of the public vote.

Victor
Evicted with 47% of the public vote, up against Dan, Jason, and Nadia. Victor's argument with fellow housemate Shell probably led to his eviction. |
4th Evicted
|
Ahmed
Evicted with 56% of the public vote, up against Dan, Nadia, Shell, Stuart and Victor. (As part of the army task, sergeants Jason and Michelle were told of the twist in nominations. If the privates passed the task, all six privates would face eviction, which they did and led to Ahmed's eviction) |
3rd Evicted
|
Becki
Becki Seddiki, entered the house on Day 31 as Emma's replacement. She was immediately given a task by Big Brother to (based on first impressions) kiss one of the housemates and that housemate would be up for eviction. This became known as the "Judas kiss". She chose popular housemate Michelle, leading to her being perceived by many as a traitor, and her fate was sealed.

Kitten
On Day 8, Kitten was ejected in the first week for constant rule-breaking. In Big Brother's first example of evil towards the housemates during the programme, £1,000 was deducted for every minute Kitten remained in the house. Therefore, there was no eviction in Week 1. At the end of Week 1, the housemates had £91,000 left in the prize fund. |
