Big Brother 10 contestant Marcus Akin has announced a party to meet up with all his fans.

The housemate, who finished seventh on this year's show, posted a message on his Facebook fanpage requesting suggestions for a destination.

The 35-year-old currently has 2,128 fans on Facebook and over 23,000 followers on Twitter.

"I've been banging on about this meet for a while. Let's get together and rent a hall, pub, whatever, get a rock/metal DJ, and meet up," wrote Akin. "It'll have to be in London, though."

One fan suggested that Akin holds the event in the O2 arena, commenting: "You would easily fill the O2 anyway with your thousands of fans (creep, creep). I'll pay for the cheese and pineapple on sticks and I'll even throw in a Victoria Sponge... That's how rock 'n' roll I am!"

After being voted out of the Big Brother house, Akin vowed to DS that he would "pay back the people who texted, voted, supported [him] on the show".
