Craig Phillips
Among the first generation of reality stars, Craig Phillips is recognisable as the first-ever winner of Big Brother back in 2000. Craig’s ‘cheeky chappy’ persona and likeable personality made him a huge hit with audiences everywhere, and now he can be regularly found appearing on a whole host of primetime TV programmes, as well as on his own YouTube channel where he helps homeowners tackle a number of DIY tasks.
Regarded as one of the most well-loved media personalities and TV presenters around, Craig is the perfect choice of event host or event speaker. Able to charm audiences up and down the country, he can engage everyone with his tales from a life in the limelight, bringing an authentic yet star-studded boost to proceedings.
In 2000, Craig made the decision to enter the Big Brother house. The first programme of its kind, it was more a social experiment than a reality show as eleven housemates spent 64 days in a house together as the nation watched on. It was an instant hit, winning over audiences and capturing the attention of the press. Millions tuned in day after day, to watch the house’s goings-on, and Craig quickly became a huge hit due to his natural charisma, humorous personality and larger than life antics. In September 2000 Craig was crowned the winner and presented with a prize of £70,000. However, he gave all of his winnings to a friend who was seeking funds for treatment of a life-saving operation, a testament to the type of person he is. When booked as an event speaker or host, Craig can discuss those few months in the house in vivid detail, talking about what it was like at the time and how reality TV has changed since that first series of the iconic programme.
After leaving the house, Craig’s stock grew. And it wasn’t long until he became known as one of the most popular TV presenters and personalities around. He released a charity music single, was interviewed in magazines and appeared on huge primetime shows like Blankety Blank, Ant & Dec’s Saturday Night Takeaway, 60 Minute Makeover and more.
Prior to his stardom, Craig owned his own building company and is an expert in all aspects of DIY and construction. This is something he continues to be passionate about, and he works as a brand ambassador for many construction and DIY companies. Craig is also in the process of building his dream home and, alongside his wife Laura, has a popular YouTube channel where he shares all manner of DIY hints and tips.
