It's now incredible to think that, back in 2000, the very first series of Big Brother saw only one addition to the list of original housemates. On day 37, Claire Strutton replaced 'Nasty Nick' Bateman after his infamous removal.
What a stark contrast to Big Brother 8, for example, in which latecomers included: Gerry Stergiopoulos, Seány O'Kane, Billi Bhatti, Jonathan Durden, Liam McGough, Brian Belo, David Parnaby, Shanessa Reilly, Kara-Louise Horne, Jonty Stern and Amy Alexandra. In our gallery below, we highlight some of the latecomers to Big Brother.
