Forensic psychologist Ali Bromley made history as the first lesbian to win Big Brother UK. In this candid chat with Ben, Ali reflects on her journey in the house—proudly representing the ADHD, Autistic, and LGBTQIA+ communities, grappling with sensory overwhelm, and navigating the autistic drive for unyielding authenticity. She also shares insights from her time assessing autism in prisons and finding new purpose after the tragic loss of her neurodivergent brother.


Plus, a SURPRISE GUEST joins Ali for the neuroqueer collaboration of the century. You won’t want to miss this iconic duo.
