What made you want to go in the House?
Two reasons really. One is called Olly and one is called Molly, and they are my grandchildren. So I have to blame them if it all goes wrong. They are my grandchildren and they are my life, so it will be nice for them when I come out. One is four and one is eight so they might watch the launch but it might not be wise to watch all of it.

Your old co-star Ken Morley was on the last series, but he didn’t have a great time. Have you spoken to him about that?
I haven’t talked to him about it but I advised him that it probably wouldn’t be his thing. I think it is a difficult thing to do. I think it is an experiment which is only for certain people that know what it is about. It is a game show and you can’t take it to heart. Just to watch and observe is what it’s about, this experiment called Big Brother. Not to let your guard down because those cameras are there 24 hours a day, but he didn’t get it. He didn’t understand that.

It is a difficult thing to do well. Are you nervous?
I am nervous about missing my grandchildren so much I might cry which I really don’t what to do because I just think it is pathetic to see people cry on television. I don’t want to do it but having said that I cry a lot so I probably will! I am nervous but I have done Loose Women for 14 years. I self-edit so you’re aware of being truthful and honest and trying to understand people and not go for the jugular just because you can. If anybody does bring an argument and I see somebody being hurt then I will probably jump in. Only to save somebody!

There have been other Loose Women on the show…
There have been quite a few so far and not one of them has said to me, ‘Don’t do it!’ Carole McGiffin would go back in tomorrow. Coleen loved it. Nadia, although she had a bad time with Perez and Katie, loved it. So I think something happens to you in there. I think it is a fascinating show.

You’ve done a lot more than Coronation Street and Loose Women…
I have been really lucky. I’ve had 45 years as an actress since I left drama school and I thank my lucky stars all the time. I went into a film with Richard Chamberlain, then Harrison Ford, then met Steve McQueen. I have been so lucky. My mother used to say, “You’ve done everything!” I’ve never appreciated it but I do reflect now and think I was very lucky. That brings me to the most wonderful show that I am in, Benidorm, and if this is it, then I am happy about that. I can’t tell you how grateful I am that I’ve got that and I will always do Loose Women when I can and that brings us to Big Brother. So Benidorm is the love of my life and now this is the fear that I am facing – it’s my bungee jump!

Is there anything you’re nervous about?
I am only intimidated if people are nasty or cruel. I won’t get involved in people’s arguments, it has got nothing to do with me, but if anyone is picking on anyone then I will go in. I have that steel right through me and if I see anything like that I just go straight in whether it is kids throwing stones at a duck or whether it is somebody else I will go in and battle and probably come out far worse than anyone else!

It’s UK Vs USA…
It’s funny, because we are different creatures I think. I think the Brits are gentler characters, they have a softness. Americans have more brashness because they are very forthright and they are determined to win. We say, “Well, I might be able to…” But what we don’t have is the same sense of humour and that is where we are going to come unstuck. We have irony, which is sarcasm but a softer version. And they have a different humour and it will show and maybe cause trouble.

Are you in it to win it?
I don’t think I’m going to win it is the phrase it would use. I am in it to observe it and how long I stay is up to the people out there and I will enjoy it however long I am there.

What habits will annoy you?
People having relations in bed next to me will annoy me, only because it has been so long I can’t remember how you do it! Disrespect would annoy me. We are all in one house and we don’t know each other so everybody should clean and cook, and if that didn’t happen I would say something. I am a little bit OCD on cleaning.

Who would you love to see in there?
Eamonn Holmes, because he is a great friend and I love him. I just saw him and I said to him, “It’s such a shame you’re not coming in because we could have slept together at last!”

Who would you hate to see?
I would have said Katie Hopkins if she hadn’t been in, because I would not have been able to control myself with that dreadful woman. She is just the most hideous person and I would have had to say, ‘What are you?’

How would you celebrate winning?
I’d celebrate with my family first and foremost then I would probably go to Benidorm! It’s a good place for a party.

    What a lovely lady. Offered everyone a drink when they came in and it was so funny when she tried the fire the cannon and forgot the ball 😀

      It made me laugh when she forgot what an ‘American Diner’ was called 😀

    Sherrie to win CBB :happy:

    If Sherrie wins CBB she will be the first Celebrity from my hometown Nottingham to win. 😀

    I want more of Sherrie. Less of Farrah :up:

      I agree. Sherrie doesn’t need to cause or get into an argument to be entertaining as she is naturally funny without trying to be.

      Sad thing is unless a housemate causes arguments they won’t get much airtime. BB is only interested in arguments rather then fun and laughter.

      I miss BB and CBB on C4 when they had a balance of arguments, drama, laughter and fun. C5 BB and CBB is nothing but arguments and less fun. 😥

      I would rather BB give Sherrie and the others more airtime instead of being the Farrah and Jenna show.

      Sherrie is making Nottingham proud. Team Sherrie 😀

    fantastic comedienne and actress, but surprised to see so little of her in this series. However, thank god she is nothing like Nasty Nadia!

      On the Live Feed Sherrie is funny and making the housemates laugh and yet BB doesn’t show this in the highlights show.

      I’m not sure why BB isn’t giving Sherrie much airtime? Some people say she doesn’t say much but she does as she speaks in the Live Feeds, it’s just BB doesn’t show it in the CBB highlights show. 🙁

      I agree Sherrie is fantastic comedienne and actress. :happy:

      I can’t believe that BB gave her less airtime when they did that Talent task. Sherrie has talent and should have been given more airtime when showing her acting talent.

    She hasn’t contributed enough to win. Lying in the bath in your dress mumbling and sitting up in bed scratching your head is boring to watch.

      I agree with you Connie. She is utterly boring and uninteresting. And I don’t understand this “she is a fantastic actress” bit. I can only go by what I am watching on CBB as I have never seen her on TV. In the deja vu task where they all had to act their parts, she was flippin hopeless, and couldn’t get the simplest of lines out. If I had to direct her in anything it would do my head in! Inevitable that Natasha saved her but it was a waste of a save as she contributes nothing.
