In case you missed it, the new series of Celebrity Big Brother kicked off just under a fortnight ago. Along with the usual stream of well-known faces from the world of daytime television, there was one man who many may not be aware of.

Nick Leeson, may not be the most famous person in terms of screen time, but it would be hard to argue many people have led a life as interesting as his. From taking down one of Britain’s largest banks through nefarious dealings, to a battle with cancer to being portrayed by Ewan McGregor in a film of his life, he’s had quite the journey.

Booking agency NMP Live have put together an infographic which details the trials and tribulations of the infamous character and explains why he’ll be one to watch in the house.

You can take a look at the infographic below.
