Big Brother's Dean Quinton certainly made an impression when he warned in his VT, ‘Don’t piss me off. I’ll say what I want to say and how I feel at the time, regardless of who’s in the room.’ No lies here.

Dean entered the Big Brother 2024 like a hurricane in a beret and managed 27 days in the house before being evicted at the end of the Vampires vs Villagers Halloween task. He was put up for nomination in week 4 after Emma Morgan chose to save and replace Nathan King with Dean, eventually resulting in Dean's eviction from the house.

Dean was the fifth housemate to be evicted from this year's BB and during his time in the house he shared Head of House duties with Ali Bromley for one week and was nominated just twice. He also read one Sarah Griffiths to absolute filth during the Vampires vs Villagers task, 'Sometimes when she speaks, it f**king winds me up' and 'Anyone that wears shoes like that – we cannot be friends'.

The latter has become a core memory for the heatworld team.
