He\u2019s not just the parish councillor he says he is on the show<\/p>\n

Last night, Big Brother UK 2025 was rocked by the arrival of George \u2013 a villain in every way, shape and form. From his machiavellian appearance complete with the type of socks that Rumpelstiltskin might menace fairytales in, George RUFFLED feathers. Extremely opinionated and \u201cright leaning\u201d \u2013 George waltzed in and with 15 minutes of airtime told overweight farmer Cameron off for eating biscuits too early in the morning and said all the female housemates look and think the same. Safe to say, he\u2019s controversial. It\u2019s all actually rather panto, and whilst George Gilbert went into Big Brother<\/a> UK 2025 instantly causing chaos as a parish councillor for his small village in Essex \u2013 it turns out he actually has another job that the show hasn\u2019t told us about and he hasn\u2019t told his housemates. He\u2019s a professional actor.<\/p>\n

Hang on, what!?<\/p>\n

George Gilbert went into Big Brother UK 2025 declaring himself to be a parish councillor. Which is likely true \u2013 but being a parish councillor is unpaid and he has never given up any further information about how he earns money. Instead, he\u2019s been controversial about various points of conversation in the house and it feels like he\u2019s on a mission to make his mark as the series villain. Also, despite the fact that I disagree with every point he makes in the house I do think he\u2019s needed in there to stir up drama.<\/p>\n

But George isn\u2019t just a parish councillor \u2013 he\u2019s an actor. Big Brother fans on Reddit found his profile on Backstage<\/a> which shows he\u2019s a jobbing actor and has had a number of professional credits. This profile explains how he was professionally trained at drama school and contains his actor headshot.<\/p>\n

George has had roles in Downton Abbey, The Essex Serpent, Pennyworth, Sneakerheads and Everything Now. He\u2019s also acted in ad campaigns for Adidas, Eurovision and was in Foot Asylum: Sabotage.<\/p>\n

Most interestingly, his notable skills as an actor are listed as physical and sketch comedy. Is he embodying the villain as a character even more than it seems?<\/p>\n
