A massage therapist from Kent who has a cookie obession is Big Brother's first ever Thai housemate.

Kathreya Kasisopa, 30, who now lives in Welling, says she is not doing Big Brother for the £100,000 prize money but so people know who she is.

The launch of Big Brother's ninth series last week pulled in an audience of 5.4 million people.

There are 16 contestants, which includes a blind comic and a secret couple.

The series' first twist saw one half of the couple "married" to another female contestant on Sunday night.
