Country boy Thomas has finally made some friends, allaying Big Brother's initial fears that he was more interested in the chickens than human company.

Thomas may not have turned into a party animal yet but he spent his first night engaged in a spot of male bonding.

The Irish lad joined cheeky scally Craig, randy Andy and city slicker Nicholas for a late night bout of lad's gossip. It's a shame lightweight Darren hit the sack early as he missed out on some juicy banter.

Our four likely lads chatted into the small hours over a few drinks and entertained each other with such high brow topics as female farting, masturbation and practical jokes.

Big Brother is a Bazal production for Channel 4.
