BIG Brother fans flocked to see two former housemates open a store in Middlesbrough.
Richard Newman and Lea Walker, otherwise known as Dicky and Dolly were in the seventh series of the show.
They appeared at the Virgin Media shop, in the Cleveland Centre, on Saturday.
Fans chatted to the pair about the current show and were invited to enter a prize draw for eviction night tickets.
Visitors to the store were also given the opportunity to try out the media products on offer.
Paul Williams, retail director at Virgin Media, said: "We've always found that combining mobile phones with music and entertainment is a perfect way to engage Virgin customers and our brand new store will certainly showcase the latest and greatest phones and technology that Virgin has to offer.
"Having Dicky and Dolly there to open the store is an added bonus."
