Big Brother Series 2

Paul and the shrink

Big Brother has made Paul see a psychologist because they fear he might be going crazy. He was privately called into the diary room for a session with shrink Brett Carr.

Producers feel Paul has been showing signs of strain and tension.He looks in the miror as soon as he wakes up in the morning and has checked his reflection in the mirror up to 30 times in only 30 minutes.

Paul spent half an hour with Brett this week and was quizzed about his moods. A source said: "The producers wouldn't do this unless they were very alarmed about a contestant's behaviour. They discourage any contact with the outside world but they thought he was going to pieces. He seemed quite unbalanced but now appears more stable. We are keeping a close eye on him and Brett is ready for another session if the need arises."
