Colson Smith tipped to enter Celebrity Big Brother next week: ‘He’s got all the ingredients of a Big Brother champion’


Coronation Street star Colson Smith is reportedly set to enter the all-new Celebrity Big Brother house next week.

“They’re thrilled he’s keen to enter the nation’s most famous house because he’s a big name already loved by millions of viewers and they were hellbent on securing someone from Corrie, as it’s great cross-promotion for ITV,” a source told The Sun. “Colson’s character Craig is a huge favourite with soap fans and he’s just as down to earth in real life so don’t be surprised if he ends up winning the whole thing.
