=== Golden ticket draw === In the first three weeks of ''[[Big Brother 2006 (UK)|Big Brother Series 7]]'' in the UK, Channel 4 conducted a promotion in conjunction with Nestlé to distribute 100 "golden tickets" randomly throughout Kit Kats, in a style reminiscent of the ''[[Charlie and the Chocolate Factory]]'' story.<ref>{{cite news |title=Draw to win place in Big Brother house broke the rules but wasn't fixed, says watchdog |author-first1=David|author-last1=Derbyshire|date=13 September 2006|url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/1528714/Draw-to-win-place-in-Big-Brother-house-broke-the-rules-but-wasnt-fixed-says-watchdog.html |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/archive/20220112/https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/1528714/Draw-to-win-place-in-Big-Brother-house-broke-the-rules-but-wasnt-fixed-says-watchdog.html |archive-date=12 January 2022 |url-access=subscription |url-status=live |access-date=5 February 2020 |work=The Telegraph}}{{cbignore}}</ref> Members of the public finding these tickets were permitted to use them to give themselves a chance to become a ''Big Brother'' housemate and bypass the standard auditions process. Golden ticket holders were invited to a television show where one of them, [[Susie Verrico]], was chosen to enter the House by [[Aisleyne Horgan-Wallace]], picking a ball out of a machine at random. This contest caused some controversy, with the [[Advertising Standards Authority (United Kingdom)|Advertising Standards Authority]] saying that the terms and conditions of the draw should have been made clearer in related advertisements, and that an independent adjudicator should have been present before and during the draw.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.itv.com/news/entertainment_3c26360018cbcc12d9c89259fbfc6132.html |title=Big Brother contest slammed again |access-date=11 October 2006 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070929091353/http://www.itv.com/news/entertainment_3c26360018cbcc12d9c89259fbfc6132.html |archive-date=29 September 2007 }}</ref>
