Former EastEnders star Natalie Cassidy has emerged as an early favourite to win Big Brother.
The 28 year old actress, best known for playing Sonia Jackson in the BBC soap was first to enter the reality tv house last night, during the show's latest launch night on Channel 5.
Thousands of fans took to twitter to show their support, with both Natalie Cassidy and Sonia trending within minutes.
William Hill, who has tipped Cassidy to win at 11/4, said in a statement: "Natalie has already endeared herself to the viewers and we think that she is the one to beat at this very early stage."
Joining Natalie in the house are Frankie Cocozza, Denise Welch, Natasha Giggs, Romeo, Nicola McLean, Kristina and Karissa Shannon, Kirk Norcross, Andrew Stone, Gareth Thomas and gorgeous model Georgia Salpa.
