Big flooder! Housemates evacuated after torrential downpour leaks into the Big Brother living room

Just moments before they were embracing the weather and dancing in the rain

THE Big Brother housemates have been evacuated after yesterday’s torrential downpours flooded the house.

As the heavens opened across the UK yesterday, the rain started to come down heavily on the house, which is based in Hertfordshire.

Housemates Sam, Andy, Emma and Evelyn immediately took off their microphones and embraced the sudden downpour by running into the garden.

The four of them stood with their arms open as they danced around and laughed and cheered, getting soaking wet in the process.

Emma fully embraced the downpour and stood with her arms and mouth open before getting in the pool.

“Are you loving it Emma?” called a voice from the house.

Ryan also told Sam to take a cup and put it on the floor outside to “see how quickly it fills up”.

But their fun was soon brought to sudden halt as they made their way inside and Lateysha and Natalie, who were chatting on the sofa, started to notice some dripping coming from above.

“Guys,” they said, “Guys, oh my days, look.”

Water then started gushing through the ceiling as housemates began to run in all directions.

Jason then took control and started clearing everyone away from the ceiling as he feared the whole thing might cave in on them and directed them to the back of the room

Big Brother then announced: “All housemates must enter the bedroom immediately.”
