Is Channel Four finally going to put a disabled person into the Big Brother house? If you're a wheelie, the programme makers say you can queue-jump at this year's . A statement reads: "People who contact the helpline will be given an allotted time or brought to the front of the queue, depending on which is quicker."

It also assures: "It is our policy to assist people with whatever disability they have in order that they have equal access to the auditions. Whether that be bringing in a sign language interpreter or a personal assistant."

Of course, that must mean they're also happy to welcome interpreters and PAs into the house, right? We just want to know what happens if someone's interpreter gets voted off before they do ...

Call 0208 222 4995, leaving details of the assistance you require.
