I remember it
They had decided to say her sister was ill, or something like that.... only she had no sister.
Dawn
that name is not ringing a bell
Dawn Faith Blake[1] (born September 1967) is an Exercise Scientist from Birmingham.
In her audition, Dawn stated that she believes that "the realities of life" are "shit" and that we are all "born into misery". Dawn has never been in love, and thinks the whole idea of love is a fantasy. (But she contradicted herself when she said all the people she has loved have fallen for someone else.) She also claims she has no friends and no desire to make any. She thinks that most people are only really nice to a few people at most and are "bastards" but mentions Gandhi, Mother Teresa and Bob Geldof as nice people.
In the house, there was a period where the housemates were not allowed to have access to their suitcases. This meant that Dawn had no access to her deodorants and had strong body odour which transferred onto Grace's sweatshirt, which Nikki was wearing at that time. Dawn also became frustrated with the fact that she had no access to her clothes and stated she had to borrow clothes from the male housemates because the girls' didn't fit her.
After seven days in the house, Dawn received a message from her family saying "your sister is ill". She was later[when?] observed to tell the other contestants that "I have a code" and "Something bad has happened, I need to leave". In the afternoon, Dawn announced that she was leaving, and that Big Brother had convinced her to stay for one more night so they could make arrangements for her departure. That evening, Dawn packed what little clothes she had, and made it quite clear she was going and hence she was no longer part of the game.
The following day, Dawn was called to diary room and before entering, she said goodbye to each of the remaining contestants. When entering the diary room, she was asked to sit down, and she refused saying that "I am not part of the game anymore, please could you let me out now", when her request was denied she angrily shouted "shut up" so as to indicate she was no longer prepared to enter into a discussion. Eventually, the exit of the diary room was opened and she left. Later on, the producers classified Dawn as 'ejected'.[7]
Dawn later went 'on hunger strike' until the producers of Big Brother provided her with unedited footage to prove she had been kept in the House against her will. The Hertfordshire Police Force launched an inquiry into her claims. She remained on hunger strike for just under 20 days.[8]
It was BB 7 apparently - the BB Aisleyne.
