Ben
Ben McCallum was a 19-year-old law student from Western Australia who says that he is very smart and easily annoyed. He says that he only goes for women with "depth", but has not been successful so far. In the Big Brother house, Ben had a close relationship with Bianca before she left, but being respectful of women, Ben preferred not to spoon Bianca. He enjoys sports, music and escapism. In an attempt to irritate Big Brother, throwing a ball at the wall of the Big Brother house, Ben accidentally broke a part of a water tank and lost 4,000 litres of water. He then had to bathe himself using a bucket and sponge until further notice. He was then banished to the kombi van in the backyard, which lasted for a week.
