CBB7: The Housemate That Finished Fifth Is.......

Day 27: The housemate to finish fifth in the Celebrity Big Brother final with 8.6% of the public vote was Stephanie Beacham. She had been the final female inside the CBB7 house after Nicola's surprise eviction on Wednesday.

Bookies had predicted Steph would be the first housemate to be evicted during the live final on Channel 4.

CBB7: Vinnie And Alex Top Sun Poll

Day 27: It looks like it could be neck and neck between bookies favourite Alex Reid and previous favourite Vinnie Jones. Over 6,000 readers have voted in The Sun's online poll and Alex is narrowly leading with 38% of the vote. Vinnie Jones is just 7% behind him in what could become a nail biting CBB7 Final tonight.

Dane Bowers was voted into third place on 18% of readers votes, having slipped back in recent days. The only female left in the Big Brother house looks unlikely to win the reality show as Stephanie Beacham only has 8% of the vote. Surprisingly, Jonas Altberg finished last in The Sun poll with just 5%.

CBB7: Alex Wanted Peter Andre In Big Brother House

Day 27: Housemates were called to the Diary Room and asked various questions from Big Brother fans. Alex was asked if he could have chosen his most ideal celebrity housemate, who would it have been. Smiling as he pondered the question, Alex replied that his choice would have been Peter Andre, so that he could have cleared the air between them.

Dane Bowers was asked if he had kept the mystery key well hidden, he then produced the key from inside his pocket and confessed he had kept the key in his pocket the whole time. When he told Big Brother he had sometime wrapped the key in a sock, Big Brother asked him if he had done it to make his balls look bigger. He laughed and said he would have looked a bit lob sided if that was the case because it was "proper to the side". Big Brother replied, "it would look very big though!"

Jonas confessed that he had missed playing computer games and speaking Swedish most during his time in the Celebrity Big Brother house. Stephanie said she felt relieved to be the only woman left standing. She was 'knocked over backwards' that Sisqo and Dane had considered her fit. She told Big Brother she was far too conscious of being too fat at the moment, but flattered at being considered fit.

Finally Vinnie told Big Brother that he would like to win Celebrity Big Brother as he shared his thoughts. He said he had been honest with people inside the house and said he hadn't spoken behind people's backs during his time in the house.

CBB7: Why Stephanie Should Win Big Brother

Day 27: Did you ever think Stephanie Beacham would last the duration inside the Celebrity Big Brother house? No? Neither did I, yet Stephanie has provided us with huge amounts of entertainment and laughs over the past four weeks. She might be posh but this lady knows how to have fun (most of the time - we'll forgive her for not wearing the animal costume 'for health reasons'!).

She is the only female left in the male dominated house and that should be enough reason to win CBB7, another reason for winning could be for her willingness to join in and take part during the show. Who can forget her role in Celebrity Last Legs, where both Ivana and herself 'cared' for the retired housemates? Getting covered in cake TWICE and yet still laughing about it shows the kind of nature Stephanie has. Many times she was the female voice of reason within the Big Brother house.

At the same time, true to her Dynasty role - Steph could be a bit of a bitch. Those early morning cups of tea with Vinnie proved a breeding ground to bitch, and who could forget her nomination of Ivana? A bitch she may be, but a lovable one at that, Stephanie has made for great viewing and every woman in the land owes her a vote!

Find out how Stephanie does in the CBB7 Final from 20:30 on Channel 4 tonight.

CBB7: Vinnie Says Sisqo Had A Lucky Escape

Day21: Vinnie Jones warned Stephanie that he would have put Sisqo through a window in the old days. The former footballer was still angry with Sisqo for the things he had said after a few drinks, where Sisqo challenged Vinnie as the 'daddy of the house'.

Stephanie on the other hand was full of praise for the 30 year old singer, whom had achieved so much coming from a difficult background. Viewers saw Vinnie threatening to go to his solicitor because of Sisqo's words earlier this week. The hard man of the house is still firm favourite to win CBB7 on Friday, but recent events have damaged is chances slightly.

CBB7: Stephanie Gets Covered In Cake

Day 20: Steph got covered in cake as Big Brother played a prank on her in the Diary Room. At first Big Brother dropped cake in her lap, so when she left the Diary Room she told others about the experience.

Big Brother had more in store, calling each housemate into the Diary Room one by one. Housemates were told to remove their hat and move to the left or right as they expected to get gunge over themselves. No-one suffered the same fate as Stephanie, who was called back into the Diary Room, even though she had gone to bed. This time a chocolate cake splatted her on the head, laughing and joking she called Big Brother a jerk.

Earlier Dane had selected Stephanie to receive the cake as a reward by slapping her on the bum, he didn't know it would end up on her head!

CBB7: Snores Wars

Day 13: The bitching has gone up a level as housemates continue back-biting over who is snoring the most at night. As previously reported, Lady Sov was not happy with Stephanie's snoring late into the night.

This morning Vinnie and Stephanie moaned about the other housemates snoring, as Vinnie told Stephanie that Lady Sov had moved her bed into the living area as she complained about Stephanie's snoring. He then told her that he'd woken up a few hours later and Lady Sovereign was snoring herself, Vinnie put it down to the alcohol.

The Snores Wars continued with Stephanie complaining about Ivana's snoring but said she understood why Alex (Rocky) snored and felt bad about her own snoring.

CBB7: Lady Sov v Lady Snores

Day 13 and it seems patience is quickly running out in the Celebrity Big Brother house as Stephanie Beacham's snoring kept Lady Sovereign awake last night.

Not even tissue or a hat could help Lady Sov sleep as the snoring continued. A visit to the Diary Room proved fruitless as Big Brother told her she would have to deal with the problem herself and no ear plugs would be provided.

Even Ivana Trump had been woken up by the loud snores of Stephanie, she wanted Lady Sov to turn Stephanie over but she was having none of it. Almost out of ideas, Lady Sov decided to take the matter into her own hands. Standing next to Stephanie's bed, she mimicked Big Brother's voice as she called Steph to the Diary Room. It was all to no avail because Stephanie just continued to snore as Lady Sov gave up any hope of sleep.

CBB7: Vinnie Lays Into Housemates

Day 11: It seems like Vinnie Jones has had enough of certain housemates and shared his thoughts with Stephanie Beacham. Top of his rant list is Lady Sovereign, who he exposed yesterday as the Food Thief. He told Stephanie that Lady Sov's swearing and sulking were out of order and predicted that the public would see the real Sov and she would be evicted. Heidi Fleiss was also at the receiving end of his rant, saying she didn't get involved or join in. Nicola and Katia were also slammed by the ex-footballer.

The CBB7 housemates are having to cope with food rations after rule breaking and failing this weeks Shopping Task, so it was no wonder Lady Sov felt hungry. She wanted to tuck into some corned beef but it prompted a few comments from other housemates, who told her to ask Vinnie if it was OK. Vinnie told her it was meant to be one of the dinners for the week. He told Stephanie, "it's all about her", as he told Lady Sov to get on with it and stop asking him what to do.

CBB7: Day 4 - Big Brother's Big Beard Speaks Out

It's just a matter of time before the Celebrity Big Brother housemates explode in anger. We're already seeing cracks appear in the fragile friendships formed four days ago.

Stephen Baldwin is already winding up EVERY housemate with his Bible talk and opinions, while Stephanie Beacham is slowly getting more and more repulsed by the Big Brother experience. Meanwhile Alex Reid is managing to piss off a few of the CBB7 housemates and Heidi Fleiss is slowly simmering away like a pressure cooker waiting to explode.

It's not all bad news though - as Basshunter Jonas and Ronnie Wood's ex-girlfriend Katia seem to have hit it off so well. Maybe she can give him a hand with his addiction...........

CBB7: Stephanie Refuses To Take Off Sunglasses

Day3: Stephanie Beacham seems to have landed back to earth with a loud thud and a pair of sunglasses that are refusing to leave her face. The diva has refused to take the shades off as she got to know the other CBB7 housemates better today. The former Dynasty actress proved her diva status as she complained to Big Brother about the cheap acrylic sheets and shabby bathroom facilities.

Summer has arrived early in the Celebrity Big Brother house and Stephanie Beacham is ready for action!

CBB7: Celebrity Housemates Get Flirty

Day 3 - Already the celebrity housemates are busy flirting with each other as Stephen Baldwin confessed to having a bit of a crush on Stephanie Beacham. He went on to give the actress a massage last night.

Meanwhile Basshunter singer Jonas has the hots for Katia after saying she looked, "absolutely gorgeous" as he lent her his jacket while outside having a smoke. But he'd better watch out 'cos Sisqo is about - he's apparently interested in Ronnie Wood's ex as well, saying,"Maybe she was a little shy at first, then she seemed to open up a little more. So, yeah. I'm kinda curious."

As the days go by, expect the hormones to go out of control .................
