Hoping to cash in on his new-found celebrity is Commander Jeor Mormont actor James Cosmo, who has recently entered the Big Brother house for series 19 of the Celebrity version.
Cosmo’s previous TV work also includes Sons of Anarchy, Midsomer Murders, and Soldier Soldier, while he’s also appeared in Braveheart, Trainspotting, and Troy.
The 68-year-old said when entering the CBB house: “I wouldn't say I'm scared about going into the house. One of the things that I'll miss is listening to Eminem.
He continued: ”I'm in here for an experience, I hope I'm going to enjoy it and that's it. Game, set, match and nothing else.”
Cosmo fans can next catch the actor reprising his role of Mr. Renton in Trainspotting 2 later this year. Meanwhile, other CBB contestants include Ray J (famous for making a sex tape with Kim Kardashian), American reality TV star Speidi, and Jasmine Waltz.
