In the Celebrity Big Brother UK house, a crew member was spotted holding a cue card, suggesting that the reality show is not as real as previously assumed.

The crew member was spotted during Big Brother's Bit on the Side, a news show associated with the reality series. Wearing a black shirt with the word "CREW" visible, the crew member was seen holding a cue card, presumably to help the celebrities with lines.

A representative for Celebrity Big Brother was quick to offer an explanation for the crew member's presence, explaining the situation to MailOnline.

"Sometimes members of the task team enter the Big Brother house but they do not communicate with housemates," they said. "'Ollie [Locke] and Sam [Faiers] were taking part in an improvised reality scene and as part of this they were provided with surprise story lines to react to on chalk boards by a member of the task team."

Despite this explanation, many Celebrity Big Brother fans voiced their outrage that the crew was helping the celebrities at all. As MailOnline suggested, the spotted crew member calls into question how much the production team is involved in creating story lines for the show.

There are only six celebrities still left in Celebrity Big Brother 13, and the winner will be determined on Wednesday, Jan. 29. The remaining celebrities are Locke, Faiers, model Casey Batchelor, singer Dappy, comedian Jim Davidson and reality star Luisa Zissman.
