PAST

Which former Big Brother Housemate would you say you were most like and why?

Callum Best was nice and Katie Price, I like her. Helen Wood? No. And if I didn't get on with her then I don't think I would have got on with anyone because it was like follow the leader last year.

What has been your greatest achievement?

This! I failed my driving test twice, so that's not much of an achievement!

What story from your past will you use to break the ice?

Hello I'm Harriet and I work in a cafe!

Big Brother could make you famous. Would you welcome that and what has been your closest celebrity encounter in the past?

I used to work at Somerset House so I met loads of people there but you're not allowed to say anything because you have to act professional!

PRESENT

Why do you want to enter the Big Brother House?

I did it for a joke and the joke has gone a bit too far! If I win it would be nice but I am happy just to get this far.

What do you bring to the House?

Hopefully I'll bring some fun. I don't want everyone being miserable, I'd rather go home!

Which traits do you find most annoying in a housemate?

Smacking your lips when you're eating, but apart from that nothing because I will probably be the annoying one! I hate sneaky people and liars. My mum says you never get to the bottom of a liar!

What do you love most in the world and what will you miss in the House?

My Mum, Dad and family. I am such a home girl that even when I go on holiday I'm saying, “Mum, I want to come home!” She is the only person who can calm me down when I am upset so I will just have to think about her and that will make me more upset!

FUTURE

Are you looking for love in the Big Brother House?

No I bloody well ain't! I hate that, it's so cringey. Even if I was single I wouldn't be up for that. My dad is watching for God's sake!

What will you do to win?

If I get booted out of here the first or second week then I made it this far and I am quite happy. I'll just go back to work like I did before. I'm not losing anything because I've got nothing to lose!

What will you do with the money if you win?

Probably put it on a house or something like that; otherwise I won't be able to afford one!

Where do you see yourself in five years' time?

If anything was to come from this I would love it. I would like to work in the TV industry if I can but if not then my boyfriend will look after me and we will have loads of kids.
