Name:Michael Age:33 Home:Ayrshire Job:Radio producer Starsign:Libra Status:Single Michael's Bio When Michael (Mikey) was 23 he lost his sight whilst undergoing an operation and has now been blind for 10 years. Mikey works as a radio producer for a blind radio station called 'Radio Insight' and in 2007 was part of a team that won a Sony Radio Academy Award. He is extremely proud of his career and feels privileged to be doing what he does. If he won a million pounds he would like to quit his job and write radio plays and books, plus buy a pet pig! Mikey describes himself as wacky, zany and non-conformist and considers his best ability is to make others laugh. His favourite party trick is to do stand-up comedy whilst dressed up in girls' clothes. Mikey decided to audition for Big Brother this year as in the past people could smoke in the house and he dislikes the smell of smoke due to his acute sense of smell. He hopes his time in the Big Brother house will help him to be more tolerant of people and would like to come across as an entertaining housemate and not boring or a grumbler.
