Interview: Sallie picks her winner
She's gone from the House but certainly not forgotten, so when Sallie Axl popped into the studio with a new tattoo on her face we grabbed her for a quick chat about the latest goings-on in the House, who should win, and who should be given the boot this weekend. Ever the professional she wasn't backward in coming forward...
So Sallie, first things first, what on Earth you been up to since you left the House?
"I've been DJing all over the world, I've been to Kosovo where everyone has velvet suits, I've been to Marbella which was wicked, I've been fire breathing, I've just done the Manchester tattoo convention... it's been pretty busy."
Sounds it. Even so do you wish you were still in there?
"No not now, I'd be going mad if I'd been in there for this long, but I'd have liked to have done a month."
Is there anyone in there who you didn't get on with but now you've warmed to?
"Dexter! A little bit anyway. We clashed when we were in there, but now I think he makes the show, so I don't want him to leave."
Have you been in touch with any of the other ex-housemates on the outside?
"A few of them yeah. Wolfy and me are still pals, we've been out a few times and I've stayed at her house, she's really lovely. I also bumped into Jackie on a train, and me and Dan have been out a couple of times. I don't want to see Jemima again though."
What did you make of this week's friends and family nominations?
"Oh I loved those! I wish my friends would have had a chance to do that it would have been amazing."
Who would they have nominated?
"Hazel because she's playing a game and she's really sly and manipulative, and Charlie just to stop her endless whinging."
Who would you like to see evicted on Friday?
"I think Hazel should go, but then again she does cause a little bit of drama so I kind of want to keep her in too, because otherwise it'll be like watching paint dry."
Okay, who would you like to win then?
"I think Sam will win, but I'd like Sophie to. She hasn't had enough air time but she's a really strong character, she's very influential in there and very decent and honest. Her boyfriend's a lucky guy and he should marry her straight away!"
Thanks Sallie. Would you go back in if they let you?
"Oh yeah, just to cause trouble."
