I wonder when the the Golden ticket winner will go into the house .One thing we know for sure he/she will be under 30.I cant remember if there was an age limit when the Golden Ticket campaign was running.

The Daily Star has reopened its Big Brother 2011 golden ticket giveaway, extending the competition to July 11. The contest sees a number of βgolden ticketsβ given away in the Saturday issue of the newspaper which, when found, give the holder the chance to enter the Big Brother house this year.
The competition was previously quietly dropped by the publisher, with only one golden ticket winner ever ocming forward.
The newspaper says: βBB is back with a bang on Channel 5 this summer β and our superb Golden Ticket draw gives readers the best shot at becoming a housemate.
βThe worldβs biggest reality show made massive stars of βNastyβ Nick Bateman, 43, Brian Dowling, 32, Chanelle Hayes, 23, and Craig Phillips, 39. And now it could be you.β
The newspaper also suggests that this yearβs prize fund will be increased to a whopping Β£500,000 β five times as much as on Channel 4.
Josie Gibson, winner of the final Big Brother on Channel 4, told the newspaper: βWhat better way to win your place than with a Golden Ticket in Britainβs biggest BB newspaper? I canβt wait to watch the new showβ.
Big Brother 2011 starts on Channel 5 next month.

There was no age limit.
However, the whole thing was very vague. I've heard the number of tickets varying from 60 to 120, and the initial claim that a ticket winner would definitely enter the house was quietly changed to simply allowing ticket holders to skip the early audition stages.
The fact is that very few ticket winners came forward: the Daily Star only ever publicized two winners (AFAIK), and one of them (a 49-year-old called Christina) wouldn't fit the current show's entrance criteria...
I think Christina has a twitter account and I don't think she's a happy cougar. I'm sure I saw something from her about a week ago but I'm a bit vague on details
