'Big Brother' housemate Freddie has celebrated his birthday in the house saying it was "weird" to be doing it on camera.
Freddie turned 24 yesterday, the day of the Summer Solstice.
'Big Brother' said the Solstice was often associated with hippies and gave the housemates some costumes to wear. Freddie was thrilled with his tie-dye outfit but later told Angel: "This is probably the weirdest birthday because it's all being broadcast."
Angel revealed Freddie was not the first housemate to have a birthday while in the house but she had asked for hers to be kept a secret. "I don't like birthdays," she said. "Doesn't make me happy. I asked Big Brother do not celebrate my birthday."
She refused to say the date but added: "It is already gone."
Freddie was told to prepare a 15-minute presentation about himself. "I was born with a brain with very little understanding of social signals," he began.
"If I had been aware of social signals, it would have crushed me. I've always been a bit different. I didn't notice people calling me stupid."
Before entering the house the Oxford graduate, from Market Drayton, Shropshire, described himself as an entrepreneur and polymath.
The presentation continued: "I'm a man of many different sides, many different angles. I sing. I do politics. I am a very social person. I'm a very clever person, but I've had to work really hard to even be able to read and write. I'm really into politics, but I've been so frustrated with so much of politics."
