Yet another BB departure

Yet another Big Brother contestant has left the house - George.

Posh George - who claims to know Prince Harry - apparently went to the Diary Room and said: "My reason for leaving the Big Brother house is the thought of fame and how I would like to continue my private life - and fame is too much for me." Although he then claimed: "I love everyone here and everything in the house."

He added: "I wanted to break the stereotypical public school view...and I think I've achieved that. "

How badly chosen was this selection of housemates? As Polly Hudson said today in the Mirror: "This year it's like the producers went to a Yates's Wine Lodge and just grabbed the first 14 people they saw."

I've almost lost count of how many people have left the house: 1 via the traditional method of voting eviction and 3 through the back door.

Two new housemates have been added.

Will anyone last the full 13 weeks until the end of August? Will anyone still care by then?
