Tipperary Farmer Cian Joint 9/2 Favourite To Win Last Ever Big Brother Title
Civilian Big Brother launched for the final time on Friday as the last ever batch of contestants entered the house for the final series after 18 years on air.
The housemates are already at loggerheads not just for Big Brother’s ‘Big Coin’ but in the betting as two have emerged as joint favourites to win.
Tipperary native Cian Carrigan and Barnsley beauty Sian Hamshaw are head to head at 9/2 for the title already.
Sian won the first public vote which saw her given an advantage in the first task ‘Survival of the Richest’ which will see housemates vie to get their hands on the most Big Coins.
Cian, a 23-year-old farmer, is flying the flag for Ireland for the final series of Big Brother and should he win he will join Brian Dowling in an elite group of Irish Big Brother winners.
Halifax carer Zoe Jones is also in with a shot at taking the title, and the £100,000 prize money, as she sits second to the joint favourites at 11/2.
Joining them in the house are training consultant Akeem Griffiths (8/1), London cleaner Tomasz Wania (8/1), Glaswegian Ellis Hillon (10/1), vlogger Cameron Cole (10/1), graphic designer Brooke Berry (14/1).
Current outsiders include bartender Lewis Flanagan (16/1), telesales agent Kenaly Amos-Sissons (16/1), vegan artist Kay Lovelle (20/1), bricklayer Lewis Gregory (25/1), former semi-pro footballer Isaac Jagroop (25/1) and spiritual advisor Anamelia Silva (25/1).
Aoife Heffron, Spokesperson for BoyleSports commented: “This is the last ever series on Big Brother so the winner will go down in history and we are already seeing strong support for two housemates, Sian and Cian who are joint 9/2 favourites.”
She added “Cian is an eccentric farmer from Clonmel, Tipperary so he has the patriotic punters on his side, but from the small glimpses we have seen of the computer gaming rep he is sure to go down a treat with the public so we are keen to keep him on our side.”
