The "prisoners" in the Big Brother house were offered a "get out of jail free" card - but with a hidden paradise behind an escape tunnel, none seemed too keen to take it.

The housemates had been told to split into prisoners and prison warders for their new task but Big Brother gave those behind bars a map and a spoon to tunnel out.

Brighton contestant Pete Stephenson, Aisleyne, Glyn, Imogen and Spiral opted to be prisoners and turned out to be the lucky ones as they found a Roman spa with roll-top baths, a chocolate fountain and a bar.

In the latest twist in the task, the five then had the chance to plead for "freedom", with the guards - Jennie, Mikey, Susie, Richard and Michael getting to choose who should be allowed out of jail.

While the others trotted out insincere speeches, Pete seemed happy to leave, pleading: "It's so boring, let me out! I want to see Jennie and Dickie and have gay fun!"

He got his wish and had a run round the Big Brother garden, while best friend Richard swapped places and found out what was going on.

"Oh my God! Pete doesn't like this?" he grinned on discovering the mini-paradise.

Richard warned "inmates" that the guards suspected something was up.
