Bookmakers have wasted no time in publishing their thoughts for the first eviction market. Favourite with the majority of firms to leave first is Kitten, whose antics even before she went in the house won’t have endeared her to the public.

That said the human and animal rights activist calmed down immediately she entered the house. Also worth considering is the number of different characters in the house, something that for this year’s Big Brother may prove to be advantageous.

One contestant who may have trouble containing his thoughts is Ahmed – who according to his preshow entrance video is a self-confessed homophobic. If this proves correct, the Law graduate is bound to find himself in hot water sooner rather than later with both his housemates and the voting public.

What was also noticeable about Ahmed during those first few hours was his lack of participation in the conversations. The best price at the time of writing for Ahmed to be first out is 4/1 with Coral.

The two other housemates considered in danger of being evicted first are Victor (5/1) and Nadia (7/1) – who of course has quite a secret to unveil.

Looking at the rest of the contestants, the one who looks worth a small bet at this stage is Marco at 20/1. The first housemate in the house should prove to be one of those characters that you either love or hate.
