Shaun Williamson has delivered a killer nomination just hours after setting foot in the Celebrity Big Brother house.
The actor, who is famous for playing Barry on EastEnders, was given a task as the first star to appear on the series of the show during last night’s launch.
He was ordered to appear nervous and was told to do various strange things such as get The Real Housewives of Beverley Hills star Brandi Glanville to pour water over his head and make The Bachelorette hunk Chad Johnson stroke his chin in a bid to help him calm down.

If he was deemed by producers to have succeeded in the challenge, the former soap star would have gained immunity from the first eviction and would be given the chance to make a Killer Nomination, automatically putting another housemate up for the public vote.
But it was decided his efforts were not enough and programme bosses threw in a twist as a result by only giving him the less favourable part of the prize.
In scenes set to air tonight, he is called to the Diary Room and told: “Earlier, Big Brother set you a secret mission to become the most nervous housemate in Big Brother history.
“What you didn’t know is that if you passed, you’d win immunity from the public vote and the power of a Killer Nomination.
“And the housemate you chose would definitely face the first public vote for eviction. However, you were certainly not the most nervous housemate in Big Brother history.
“In fact Shaun, you weren’t even the most nervous housemate in the house tonight. You will only win half of your reward.”
Big Brother continued: “Shaun, congratulations. You have won a Killer Nomination.
“Shaun, you must now deliver your Killer Nomination. The housemate you choose will definitely face the first public eviction.”
The reality contestant put his hands up to his head and appeared stressed, before saying: “I’m gonna nominate, for Killer Nomination, Marissa.”
Star of American series Mob Wives Marissa Jade insisted she had not been left disappointed by Shaun’s choice, telling him: “I’m not upset, it’s okay. I understand it’s a game.”
Celebrity Big Brother continues tonight on Channel 5 at 9pm.
