BB NEWS: Actor’s Furious At Ch5 Contestant Inclusion

<p>As Big Brother opens his house again on Channel 5 it seems as though one contestant is already causing outrage amongst the acting community. Will Simon Gross be this summer’s “Big Brother villain”?</p> <p></p><p> </p><p><img src="http://www.thegayuk.com/communities/8/004/009/928/388/images/4620882412.jpg" width="460" height="306" alt="Simon Goss - Channel 5" title="Simon Goss - Channel 5"/></p> <p></p><p>Simon Gross is an actor and producer who set up SGProductions to tour community homes with his own produced shows. According to his website he’s ‘had the privilege to set up Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen on a ‘Gotcha’ for Noel’s House Party.’ Other achievements include ‘learning to distinguish between a spatula and a whisk’ on Britain’s Worst Cook. </p><p></p><p>His real fame though appears to be coming from the acting community who know or have worked for Simon in the past. He already has his own hashtag trending, #AbusedBySimonGross, summing up how many actors and performers are feeling about the man ready to face a summer locked up in the famous TV house. Even drag queen and show producer Titti La Camp cast her warning on Twitter saying, ‘Does Simon really think entering the Big Brother house on Tuesday will right the wrongs of the past? Kama is coming.’ </p><p></p><p>Other comments from the creative world using the Hashtag ranged from:</p><p></p><p>@mackiegraves: ‘Simon Gross should be entering prison NOT Big Brother.’ </p><p>@ralphbogard: ‘Well at least @Channel5_tv has made it easy for @EquityUK to find him, then he can pay his actors what’s (sic) they’re owed!’</p><p>@ClareTyndall: ‘Remember all the trouble he caused for insisting we tribute Gary Glitter in a family show?’</p><p></p><p>It appears as though Simon’s legal team are becoming hot on the heels of anyone using the #AbusedBySimonGross hashtag by sending out letters and emails asking they be removed. </p><p></p><p>We contacted Simon’s PR agent for comment without response.</p><p></p><p> </p>
