A club promoter threw himself under a train on the London Underground after missing out on a chance to appear on Big Brother, an inquest heard today.
Allister Logue, 55, made it to the final 80 hopefuls in contention for a place on Channel 4's 11th and final series of the reality show but was not picked as one of the 14 housemates.
And just a month after he appeared as on the launch show of Big Brother on June 9, Mr Logue leapt to his death beneath the wheels of an oncoming Northern line train at Charing Cross underground station.
Belfast-born Mr Logue had once said of himself: 'Someone once introduced me as someone whose life is like a freight train: You either jump out of the way or get in and enjoy the ride, if you can hang on that long!
'And I've lived the kind of life that has been a journey and I decided that if it's going to be a journey then I might as well have as much entertainment as possible on board, with the people that just kind of pass through my life.'
Viewers watching the launch show of the final series of Big Brother saw him standing in the crowd next to Caoimhe Guilfoyle in the lineup of 80 potential contestants but she was picked as one of the 14 housemates and Mr Logue was discarded.
He had worked as a hair and make-up artists alongside renowned photograher David Bailey in the 1970s and later moved to Ibiza where he became well known as a club promoter and DJ.
