(Merlin, on becoming a 'Big Brother' housemate) "To be honest I don't particularly like watching television yet alone reality television, and yet I have this rather odd urge, or even burning want, to be a part of this show, which I myself don't even quite understand. It'd be one of those surreal things I'd look back on when I'm 80 and say 'Hell yeah kid! You did some crazy crazy s**t', and then watch the videos for the 56th time, dragging the poor grandkids through it all again. Oh, and let's be honest here, I want the cash! Big Time. None of that "money's not important to me, man I'm so above that blah blah"... A cool hundred grand would change my life!"

During his Big Brother eviction, he arrived on stage with his mouth taped shut.

"This segment is five minutes long, are you going to speak at all?" she asked. He refused to reply.
