AS SO many people predicted, he did it!

Peter Bennett has put the town of Swanley on the map by being crowned the winner of Big Brother 7.

Ecstatic Pete, who was educated at Parkwood Hall and Hextable schools in Swanley, launched himself out of the house and into the crowds on Friday after he was told he was the nation’s favourite housemate.

The loveable lad of BB7 won £100,000 for his 93 days in the house.

Hextable pupil Hannah Muskett, 12, said: “I sat and watched Big Brother with my mum. I wanted Pete to win because he is a star.”
