Jo and Cleo evicted from Big Brother

Jo O'Meara and Cleo Rocos were the two celebrities evicted from the Big Brother House by the public tonight.

Former S Club 7 singer Jo, who was involved in the race row which saw Jade Goody and her mother bullying Bollywood star Shilpa Shetty, had been the favourite to be evicted.

In a twist unknown to the housemates, actress and writer Cleo was also booted out.

Shilpa Shetty, Dirk Benedict and Ian Watkins - "H" from Steps - were saved from eviction.

The evicted pair emerged from the BB house to a mixture of boos and cheers after the result of the public vote was announced.
