Derek Laud is a posh blue blooded, Black, gay Tory with his own butler. Makosi is a nurse who believes you can confirm a pregnancy hours after getting intimate in a hot tub with a camp dancer from up North. Vanessa, is the boring but relatively pretty Black girl from no where special, while Science is a lazy wanna-be fake thug rapper from somewhere up North (feel sorry for Leeds) with a comedy bad-boy attitude.  
It has all the working ingredients of a successful sitcom, but it is instead reality television at its very best - C4's Big Brother.
If you were shocked in the first instance that television executives allowed four Black people into the Big Brother house all at the same time, you couldn't have been more surprised than we were. Even CRE boss Trevor Phillips said it was a great advert for good race relations - or words to that effect. 
Whilst I wouldn't go that far, I would say it was bloody funny and quite amazing that viewers took so long to evict those embarrassing brothers and sisters.
However, I would like to point out that if ever Derek Laud was taken seriously - and I honestly can't believe that anyone ever did - surely he is now destined to live out the rest of his life on the 'B-list' celebrity circuit, opening supermarkets, doing adverts for cleaning products and kissing an army of granny fans.  
His BNP quip about Science making him want to join, has to rate as one of Black British Comedy's greatest moments - it's only offensive if you've never learned how to laugh at laugh at yourself - and Derek obviously has. The ex-Tory speechwriter explained on eviction that his fellow housemates had 'vexed him' and then went on to poke fun at both himself and his fox hunting Tory chums by quipping 'never cross the golly?!' 
Derek Laud is an anomaly. He is the complete and exact opposite of every Black stereotype that exists, and that in my humble opinion is a good thing.
It's a shame that Big Brother six has to end. I don't think I've been so entertained collectively by three or more Black people since Desmond's finished in the early 90's. Just seeing Derek's face cracks me up. It's hard to know exactly how much of him is an act. Science by contrast is like the troublesome kid who lives down the road that you'd just love to give a clip around ears, but he's as harmless as his bad-boy attitude is fake. Still, watching him square up to Maxwell after the water fight in the early weeks was brilliantly funny. 
The beauty of Big Brother has been in its surreal nature. Four offbeat, non-representative Black people up against the world, and themselves inside a glass box has been compulsive viewing for me.
Big Brother has been politically incorrect viewing at its very best. Know that you haven't seen the last of Derek 'the dark destroyer' Laud!
