Much to the shock of the housemates, Big Brother announced on Monday that two of the contestants will be evicted from the house on Friday. It has just been confirmed that Cameron, Federico and Jon have all been nominated for eviction by their housemates. Jon was heard saying, "We are so boring, they have got to do something to mix it up." While the nation waits to see who's evicted, Ray Biddle, creator of Rabid One website dedicated to Jon the Legend, has been talking to BBCi's Rachel Binns about his unwavering devotion to Jon Tickle. Why do you support Jon? There's numerous reasons why I support Jon. The main reason is that he is a living legend. From the moment he walked into the house I realised he was a principled man. He's obviously baffled as to why the public support him and I think to increase that bafflement by giving him as much support as possible will just make great television.

Jon has many lovely qualities. He's a professional man, a very caring man, he's an excellent communicator and he's very very very funny. I think the reason why most people like him is that he is boring. When you're watching programs like Big Brother you need a catalyst to annoy people and Jon fits the role better than any actor ever could. Obviously I wouldn't want to live with the man, but worshipping him from afar is very important to me. Would you say that Jon is as boring as the media portray or do you think that he's misunderstood? Jon is a very deep man and I think he thinks he's very interesting and he is obviously intelligent from the vocabulary he uses. But boring's the wrong word. Complex is the word. He's surrounded in the house by people who are very similar to him - in their twenties and quite, I wouldn't say thick, but they're not cerebral. Jon irritates them because he's on a different level to them and that does make it more interesting. He can't interact with them on the same level that he's used to interacting with people. All he wants to do is talk about Star Wars and Shakespeare and different programming languages and interpersonal skills and psychological books and they want to talk about is dance music and going to the pub! I think it's great for the man that he doesn't shut up! Read more: Ray's dedication to Jon the Legend» Do you think Jon will win Big Brother and put Norwich on the map?
