Big Brother Betting Odds: Rebecca To Win?
This is our fourth year of covering Big Brother, and we’ve come to discover that Big Brother always hits its stride a month in.
And this year is a textbook example of that. Why? Because it usually takes a month to realise that everyone in the Big Brother house is a hugely disagreeable pooflap of the highest order.
Look at what’s going on now, for example. Darnell doesn’t like Rebecca; Rebecca doesn’t like Rachel and Kat; Jennifer doesn’t like Mohamed, Dale doesn’t like Mohamed, Dale doesn’t like Stuart, nobody at all likes Mario. And long may it continue, we say. Until they’re all dead, if that’s possible.
But someone has to win Big Brother, so who’s it going to be? Here are the Big Brother betting odds to win for Rex, Mario, Mohamed and Rebecca, with help from Paddy Power…
Rex - If ever there was an unlikely underdog, it’s Rex. He’s preposterously arrogant, employs servants at his house and owns a watch more expensive than any house you’ve ever lived in. By rights we should be calling for Rex to be strung up by his ankles and beaten. But for the simple fact that he’s getting utterly bullied by the rest of the Big Brother house - either by them voting to keep him in prison for longer than necessary, or by being ignored during the OK Go task, or by the way everyone violently ganged up on him when he barely smudged Jennifer’s piss-poor drawing last week - suddenly we find ourselves rooting for him. This’ll pass soon, obviously - not only because it’s hard for us to like someone so obnoxious for very long, but also because the rest of the Big Brother housemates are going to nominate him time and time and time again until he’s evicted. Current Big Brother betting odds - 25/1
Mario - But worse, far far far worse, than us involuntarily starting to like Rex is the thought that people might not be finding Mario as deeply disagreeable as they should. And, somewhat terrifyingly, it looks like that’s starting to happen. And, yes, it’s true that he was one of the few Big Brother housemates to stand up for Mohamed in the heat of his argument with everyone else, and that he’s starting to develop a clear sense of right and wrong, but come on! It’s still Mario! The same old Mario who struts around in his pants and sees himself as the defacto leader of the Big Brother house, even though he’s essentially a middle-aged bonehead with an opinion of himself that bears no relationship to his actual personality at all. Let’s not forget that, OK? Current Big Brother betting odds - 25/1
Mohamed - It’s clear that Mohamed doesn’t stand a hope in hell of winning Big Brother. Like Rex, all the other housemates are going to nominate him time and time again until he’s forced out of the Big Brother house - and perhaps that’s for the best. It’s becoming clear that Mohamed has alarmingly thin skin, you see, As well as his disturbing breakdown after being spat at by Dennis, Mohamed has also burst into uncontrollable sobbing fits in the Big Brother prison because he doesn’t think anyone likes him. That’s not anyone in the Big Brother house, you understand - he was talking about everyone in the whole world. Mohamed seems to be a little bit psychologically vulnerable, so maybe getting him out of the public eye would be a blessing. Current Big Brother betting odds - 16/1
Rebecca - The best proof that the atmosphere in the Big Brother house is sending everyone doolally isn’t all the fighting and spitting and removals, though. No, the best proof that everyone’s going crazy is that people are starting to fancy Rebecca. That’s terrifying and there should be some sort of medical intervention before things get really out of hand. Darnell’s had a crack at her, Luke’s making a number of sly advances for her… don’t these people know that token Big Brother fat girl never has a romantic interest? Weren’t they paying attention? By the way, we don’t think that it’s weird that people like Rebecca even though she’s fat. We think it’s weird because Rebecca looks like a fat version of Joss Stone. Current Big Brother betting odds - 16/1
Tomorrow - Big Brother betting odds for Rachel, Mikey, Luke, Darnell and Kat. But if that’s too long to wait - or you feel like making more money than you know what to do with - head right over to Paddy Power to see the full list of Big Brother betting odds.

Come on - Mario is comedy gold. The man is able to relate any social scenario to risk assessments and management dilemmas. He’s a real-life musclebound David Brent. Plus he’s been on the Ant ‘n’ Dec.
I am officially in love with Rex. I love his attitude and it is clear that intellectually he is head and shoulders above the other house mates. Rex to win!
