Former model Alex Sibley shot to fame in 2002 thanks to Big Brother 3. During his stint in the house, Alex became famous for two things, his maniacal cleaning habits and his sexy dance to KC And The Sunshine Band\'s That\'s The Way (I Like It). Since leaving the house, things have been pretty good for Alex on the celebrity front - he\'s appeared on several TV shows including Driven, Celebrity Fear Factor and Wish You Were Here, as well as starring in a Domestos commercial. On a personal front however, things ain\'t been that great. In 2004, Alex hit the headlines after being involved in a car accident that killed a 62-year-old man. In 2007, Alex hit the headlines once more following his very public break-up with fellow Big Brother contestant Melanie Hill and their subsequent custody battle over their pet dog Poppy. On a more positive note, Alex has just been voted Big Brother\'s sexiest contestant of all time by Sun readers, so that\'s bound to cheer him up.

Former Conservative parliamentary candidate, Derek Laud appeared in Big Brother 6. Since leaving the house, Derek has appeared on Question Time, The Wright Stuff, Test The Nation and Hell\'s Kitchen. This year Derek seems to be keeping somewhat of a low profile, although in 2007 there was talk of a Derek Laud biography and even more frighteningly, a pilot popped up on YouTube for a new comedy sketch called U Kno Wot I Mean in which Derek starred as a married, middle class barrister, appalled by his white, working class neighbours. Shocking.
