Harry is a 30 year old fitness coach from Croydon.
Why did you apply to be on this new series of Big Brother?
It’s literally the experience. I thrive on meeting new people. I live on my own at the moment, but I do thrive at the same time meeting loads of new people. It just excites me. It’s not actually about the money or anything else that comes with it. It’s more about the experience. That’s the most important thing to me and the thing that excites me the most. And the potential of being there for eight weeks is really exciting to me for sure.
What do you think you’ll bring to the house?
I’d say that I’m not very serious. If everything’s all doom and gloom I’ll try and bring people back to reality. So like a sense of a bit more normality. Not taking things to heart so much, a bit more light-hearted. That’s how I hope to be in the house – give off good energy.
What are you looking forward to the most about being a housemate?
I feel like a break from real life. That is generally what I’m looking forward to, because I’ve been doing my own business for quite some time now, and this would be my one proper break. There’s going to be tasks, and it’ll be intense and there might be some boredom, but I’m looking forward to meeting new people and having a new lease of life when I’m in there. It’ll be quite nice – I can just chill and zen out a little bit.
Do you have a strategy for making it to the final?
No, honestly. Just take each day as it comes because I feel if anyone does have a strategy or they’ve got a game plan, they get found out really quickly. So, there’s not much point in my opinion. So just be normal, be yourself and whatever happens, happens.
What are you most likely to get nominated for?
Probably being a bit intense, I guess at the very start, people might want to relax and chill. And I love my own space. But then I also come alive at like 1am. I’ll be up like a night owl. And I think that sort of thing might annoy people just because I’m so used to living on my own and doing my own thing; I like my own space. But then when it’s my time I will come out. I like wouldn’t say I dictate the mood, but when I want to be alone, I will be alone. And when I want to see people, I will.
Tell us one thing about yourself you think will surprise people the most.
It took me seven times to pass my driving test.
What would you do with the money if you won?
I’ll be careful with most of it. As in, try to invest in a house or something. But anything that’s left over I’d try and remove my inner bicep tattoo because it’s a bit too intense. That really annoys me every day. I really want to get rid of the tattoo
