Meet Dylan, Big Brother 2023 housemate and amputee
Dylan was the 10th contestant to enter the Big Brother house.
Big Brother has confirmed a new twist as Friday night's eviction edges even closer – two housemates will face the public vote in a double whammy eviction.
Dylan survived being evicted last night (Tuesday 31st October) after he was nominated alongside Kerry and Olivia, as Big Brother granted Noky and Trish the ability to select the 'cursed' nominees for eviction. Kerry became the fourth housemate to leave the Big Brother house.
Kerry took her eviction well and told Dylan and Olivia not to be too angry with Noky and Trish, who were forced to make a decision that they were dreading by Big Brother. However, Dylan didn't take Kelly's advice on board and confronted Trish, and the pair had a heated argument as fellow housemates looked on.
Noky and Trish decided to call a house meeting to soothe the tense atmosphere of the house and explained their thinking behind their nominations. Noky had picked Dylan, Trish picked Olivia, and they both decided on Kerry.
Dylan apologised for losing his temper but questioned why Trish didn't tell him that Noky had nominated him, not her.
Who will be up for nomination on Friday? The housemates will be picking their housemates to evict soon.

Who is Dylan?

Dylan hails from Coventry and was the 10th cast member to join Big Brother house.
When asked why he decided to apply for Big Brother 2023, he said: "I saw one of the ads on TV and I thought, I've had so many people over the years say to me that I should be a reality TV show because I'm a character. So when I saw it, I thought, you know what, I'll give it a go and now here I am!"

Dylan is an amputee, and is hoping to prove he can do whatever is asked of him "without having any problems".
The 39-year-old revealed during the show that he got into a car accident with his foot snapping in half, which resulted in him having to get it amputated.
The DJ describes himself as "a loud, positive and musical person", and if that freestyle was anything to go by, he will be bringing all the entertainment in the house.
Big Brother continues tomorrow at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.
