Celebrity Big Brother kicked off last night and as always, people across the nation were scratching their heads in confusion. Austin Armacost? Farrah Abraham? Nope. But CBB has a grand tradition of sticking in non-celebrities in the house and passing them off as famous faces...
1. Katia Ivanova - Celebrity Big Brother 7
An early example of a housemate famous more for a former romance (Ronnie Wood) than any actual career. Even after Katia's brief fling with fellow housemate Basshunter, she's still not well-known enough for her own Wikipedia page.
2. Bobby Sabel - Celebrity Big Brother 8
Ironically, this model pulled off the street as a last-minute replacement is now well-remembered - every time a new series starts, someone gets dubbed 'the new Bobby Sabel'. His biggest moment was making Darryn Lyons drink his sweat - lovely chap.

The Dyatlov Pass Incident
Written by Vikram Weet
Directed by Renny Harlin
USA, 2013
The contest between scepticism and belief in the supernatural is a reliable means of drawing out a narrative before any sort of big reveal. It’s a dynamic through which the television classic The X-Files operated, featuring the passionate Fox Mulder, who worked to convince cohort Dana Scully of “the truth.” Around this back-and-forth between two audience surrogates situates the dubious involvement of man: how much do the higher-ups truly know about what is going on, and what are they keeping from us?
Renny Harlin’s The Dyatlov Pass Incident borrows a few of these tricks. Its fictional found-footage accompanies a group of five American hikers into the Ural Mountains as they retrace the steps of nine souls who died in mysterious, real-life circumstances some 50 years ago. Hypothermia, avalanches, and other possible causes of death have since been ruled out,...

"I was getting recognised all the time and getting all this attention but I didn't think I had earned it. I knew I was doing a pretty s**t job and I was too scared to learn on the job.
