Will Young
This one's based more on reality TV curiosity than any desire to see Will in the shower (no, really, we've SEEN Mrs Henderson Presents) - can somebody win two different reality shows? Does it matter what sort of show they're on? Does winning a show in 2002 still count for something in 2007? 
Lily Allen
Now we're talking - every Big Brother, whether celebrity or civilian, needs a firebrand, and that's where Lily comes in. Reading her celebrity smackdowns on her blog are all well and good, but how could that possibly compare to the brilliance of seeing them live(ish)?
Carmit PCD
There's another very important role for Carmit to fill - the person who's just that little bit too nice and normal to be interesting. She'd be very exciteable in the early days, very keen to make the most of her time free from the Overpowering Shadow of Nicole and show that she too can be kooky and fun and interesting. 
James Blunt
James takes the position of Posh Bloke Who Looks Confused And Alarmed By Everything And Doesn't Really Know Who Any Of The Other Contestants Are. 
Sandi Thom
Finally, Sandi takes the role of the clearly insane contestant and turns up in her best Medieval Wench outfit, glaring at the other contestants with wide-eyed suspicion.
