Angel's best bits:
She may have baffled the other housemates with her bizarre antics, but contestant Angel McKenzie certainly kept Big Brother viewers hooked - love her or hate her. The Russian boxer was the seventh person to walk through the front doors on launch night, but her pantomime style entrance in a top hat and tails was poorly received by the crowd who chanted "off, off, off" as she made her way into the famous house.
The other housemates weren't sure what to make of her either, and Angel spent much of the first few days in her own company in the house. And she faced a fight to stay in after failing to win any of the Big Brother set challenges to earn official housemate status. Instead, on Day Four, she found herself at the mercy of the public vote. Viewers voted to kick out Beinazir, giving Angel her longed for title of official housemate.
She soon set about integrating herself in the house and taking part in tasks, even being named the Most Musical Housemate in a challenge - but she soon discovered life under the watchful eye of BB wasn't all fun and games.
The tough girl showed her sensitive side by supporting Noirin on a hunger strike in protest at the Dubliner having to draw glasses and a moustache on her face - but Angel admitted to Lisa she still felt unpopular within the house, and broke down in tears in the first week.
Her spirits were lifted when the group claimed victory in the Chitty Chitty Bang Bang dance task and BB rewarded everybody with food and booze.
But Angel's determination to remain on a hunger strike in support of Irish housemate Noirin worried everybody who confronted her about giving up food - and forced her to eat again.
Her self-imposed strike ended just in time for her 36th birthday - which she celebrated in private in the Diary Room, with a selection of Russian themed gifts courtesy of BB.
And the Russian theme made its way throughout the whole household later in the week, with BB setting a mini task for the HMs - dedicated to Angel's homeland. Everybody had to learn a selection of Russian phrases, with Angel coaching them on her mother tongue.
And Siavash was full of praise for their adopted teacher, saying , "It's very simple. We all sit down, Angel will say it, we will practise it."
Thanks to Angel's instruction, the group passed with flying colours and won two shopping tokens as their prize - and the task success kickstarted a good week for Angel.
Fellow housemate Freddie enjoyed a booze-fuelled 24th birthday celebration and a tipsy Angel took the opportunity to grab a sneaky kiss from Noirin - as well as a not-so-sneaky smooch from the birthday boy himself, before she dived naked into the pool.
The kiss had a profound effect on bisexual Freddie, who told BB, "I really did enjoy my dance and kiss with Angel on my birthday. She's an alright kisser actually. I kind of fancy her... I really like her as a person. Outside...
