SEE VIDEO Big Brother: Celebrity Hijack kidnaps two housemates

Housemates interrogated for 5 hours

Big Brother Celebrity Hijack pulled their most controversial stunt yet by kidnapping two housemates.

Anthony Ogogo, 19, and Amy Jackson, 21, were kidnapped under the orders of guest hijacker soldier-turned-novelist Andy McNab.

They were awoken from their beds at 7.45am by two men in balaclavas and blindfolded, taken out of the house and bundled into a car.

Housemates had been warned the day before that the kidnap was to take place, and were given a 4 digit code to remember should they be the ones captured.

The mission of the kidnappers was to obtain that code from them through interrogation.

Amy and Anthony were taken to separate rooms and subjected to 5 hours of interrogation and psychological games by the SAS team.

Boxer Anthony cracked under pressure but Amy refused to divulge any information and won £5,000 plus immunity from the week's eviction for her and one other housemate.

She picked Anthony.

As punishment for cracking, Anthony had to nominate another housemate to face eviction and chose Victor Arata, 19.

BB bosses were nervous about the stunt in case housemates sued for trauma.

'The idea is to make the contestants really believe the guys and I have taken over,' Andy McNab told The Sun before the stunt.

'They'll have trouble remembering it's a TV show.'
