"I’m really looking forward to walking through the iconic doors and meeting a group of brand-new people. It’s a fascinating experience and that’s one aspect that excites me," she said of entering the house.

"I’m also looking forward to having a break from technology. We all spend so much time on our phones etc so having no access to that will be incredibly refreshing."

"I think I'll get on well with the housemates generally," he said entering the house. "I'm quite an easygoing guy, however I know it's a completely bonkers environment and you never know - I might surprise myself about how I react to situations.

"I could definitely say that I’m pretty even tempered as a person, but what if I go in there and I'm completely crackers and I simply don't seem like a balanced person - that could easily happen."

She said of entering the show: "I’d say my strengths are making people laugh and smile and have a good time - that's my forte. I think I’ll be easy to get along with - I'm a fairly easy person to get along with. I'm an easy person to converse with - even if somebody's the complete opposite to me.

"At the end of the day, we're all human. And I think if you're a human that's open to conversation that's a great thing. And if you're human that's not open to conversation that’s all good - I'll go converse with somebody nicer."

She thinks she'll be the cleaner of the house, but adds: "If anyone's rude - that'll grate on me. Loud eaters too - I just don't understand it. I have misophonia so any unnecessary noises just mess with my head. And nail biting.

"But if I find that something is getting to me, I'll move myself away from the situation. Everyone's got their habits, I understand that. I’ll just spend my time in the bath... "

"Drama isn't my thing but I've not been locked up before! I think my positivity is a strength - the glass is always half full," she said of entering the house. "That's one of my mantras. We've all had adversity in our lives and it's one way to deal with obstacles that come our way.

"I'm good at listening to people too. I've grown as a person because of my job. I've met all sorts of people with different backgrounds - listening to them, listening to their experiences. It's easy to judge people but until you know their story you can't make informed decisions about them."

Danny said of their personality: "I think I'm really easy going. I think I'm quite level-headed these days. I'm someone who feels other people's emotions quite a lot - I'm very empathetic.

"I think I'd find it hard if somebody's really struggling and it's because of somebody else. I’d find that hard. But other than that, it's not my gaff so I can't really be bothered if people have got their feet on the sofa type of thing."

"I'd like to think I'd be an easy housemate to get on with everyone," he said. "When I meet people for the first time people say ‘God, you're so easy to talk to’ and I think people think that because you're in the public eye you’d be robotic.

"But I'll talk to anyone, so I think that's like a good trait to have. So I should hopefully get on with everyone.

It was his role as Randy 'The Ram' Robinson in The Wrestler that saw him nominated for an Oscar along with a Golden Globe and BAFTA win.

"I talked to a friend of mine who was on the show – Chuck Liddell – and he told me he got voted out real early," he said of entering the house. "So that’ll probably happen to me.

"I have no expectations. I love coming over here. I haven’t been here in eight years. Most of my good friends aren’t here anymore but I love British people and British culture so I'll enjoy talking to them [the Housemates] but I have no expectations of them. We'll just see."

As for who he'll get on with in the house, he said: "It’s difficult to say. If they're bright, amusing, interesting it'll be great. I’m a light sleeper so if they have some funny nighttime habits, that could be a problem. So no snorers, please. I think boredom is my biggest fear - not having enough stimulation."

Fabricant became the first housemate to be evicted from the house.
