Chris James has become the second person to leave the Big Brother 2012 house in tonight’s latest live eviction.

The squeaky doorman went up head to head with male model Arron in this week’s public vote after the first round of nominations took place on Monday.

“I’m feeling excellent, I was my myself in there, there were too many players which is why I’m out,” Chris told host Brian Dowling after his exit. “I thought I’d last a little bit longer, I’m not going to lie, but everything happens for a reason.”

On the five who nominated him – Luke S, Ashleigh, Caroline, Becky and Scott – Chris said: “I knew Caroline, and Scott was a sheep and Becks, Luke couldn’t take a fight so wanted me out and Ashleigh, I’m a bit surprised about that one.”

And Chris suggested: “I’ll put everyone on Becky being up for eviction next Friday, you can’t live with her.”

Asked who he wanted to win, Chris declared: “Benedict, Benedict all the way.”
