Ex Big Brother housemates cause trouble
Thursday 19 August 2010
According to The Mirror, Ben - who was the sixth person evicted - and Beyonce lookalike Rachael, who was the first to go, re-entered the compound last night after housemates were given the chance to bring back old friends by Bob Righter.
Mario was delighted to choose Ben to return, and told him: "I've been thinking about you a lot since you left. It's so good to see you!"
However, shortly after arriving, Ben was called to the Diary Room and chastised by 'Big Brother' for speaking about the outside world to the other contestants, including revealing that he had met Dave's family and John James' mother.
Rachael's return - chosen by John James - quickly turned sour as the pair traded insults.
The former housemate was instructed to give the Australian hunk a massage and both were clearly uncomfortable with the situation.
John James commented on Rachael's "weird looks" when she was in the house and told her she was a fake person.
Rachael hit back by saying that it would be good for certain people if John James left on Friday.
When 'Big Brother' eventually brought the reunion to an end, Rachael commented: "Thank God."
She added: "I would say it was nice to see you again, but it's not. I don't know what's the problem with you, John."
However John James regretted his treatment of Rachael after she left. Threatening to walk out he said to Josie: "You'd be debating speaking to me again if you saw what I said to Rachael. I pretty much slated her."

- The Real Mr & Mrs Assad: Channel 4 Dispatches
Channel 4 Dispatches reveals a portrait of a golden couple who have become global hate figures. The programme shows intimate footage of President Bashar al-Assad and his wife Asma as they've never been seen on British television before, and images that help explain why the West bought the idea they were true modernisers. When Bashar took the reins of power after his father's death in 2000, the West was drawn into a hope and belief that Syria would be a new force for change in the Middle East. The Assads were seen as a glamorous couple with modern Western morals and values; he was hailed a reformer, she was the 'Rose of the Desert'. Key leaders and figures in the West welcomed the young couple, convinced that the softly spoken London-trained ophthalmologist and his beautiful British-born former investment banker wife would bring reform and modernisation to a country that had been run by an iron-fisted dictator for nearly 30 years. But it seems the West was duped. Instead of a transparent and progressive leadership, what has emerged during a year-long bloody uprising is evidence of the regime's gross systematic human rights abuses, including widespread killings and torture, while the Assads look on. Channel 4 Dispatches investigates the extent of the Assad family's culpability and the chains of command that link the President and select inner circle to the brutal crackdown.

- Afghanistan: The Great Game - A Personal View By Rory Stewart
Afghanistan: one of the most isolated and barren landscapes on earth is a strange place for an empire or superpower to invade. But for three of the greatest powers the world has seen, it became an unlikely target and an enduring obsession. The 19th century British invasions into Afghanistan, immortalised by Rudyard Kipling as "The Great Game", ended in huge loss of life and British retreat, and set a template for the perils of incursion in this mountainous country. In this two-part series, author, journalist and former Deputy Governor during the coalition's occupation of Iraq, Rory Stewart MP travels to Afghanistan to uncover the fears, the paranoia and perceived threats that led three very different Ssperpowers: Britain, Russia and the United States into Afghanistan from the 19th century to the present day.
