Big Brother's Sree Dasari Slashes Wrists

Questions have again been raised about the Big Brother reality show after an evicted contestant slashed his wrists.

Sree Dasari was rushed to hospital, from his university digs, after slashing his wrists.

He was discharged from hospital and the thinking is that it was more a cry for help than a suicide attempt.

UK Big Brother 10 regulars will know that Sree became obsessed with another housemate, Noirin Kelly, who eventually spurned him. Noirin has since been playing with the emotions of another two housemates Marcus and Siavash Sabbaghpour.

It is reported that Sree became distressed after watching the show and seeing Noirin's behaviour. Channel 4 arranged for Sree to see a psychologist following the incident.

A Big Brother spokesperson said, "Housemates welfare is of paramount importance. There is a well-established and extensive aftercare system in place for all housemates and Sree continues to be given ongoing support by the production team and regular access to the show psychologist."

The current UK Big Brother 10 has not been a success and has seen a 33% drop in viewers from series 9.
