Lloyd's watchers will be paying particular attention to voyeur TV show Big Brother after realising that one of the contestants in the show was a Lloyd's man. The show features ten strangers who have agreed to live together in the full glare of TV cameras, 24 hours a day in all corners of the house – even in the toilet.

Nicholas Bateman is registered at Lloyd's with broker Willis. In the TV programme, contestants vote each week on which member of the household they want to evict, producing a shortlist of two.

Viewers then vote which of the two is evicted. The last person left after 64 days will win £70,000.

The 2025 Insurance Times Awards took place on the evening of Wednesday 3rd December in the iconic Great Room of London’s Grosvenor House.
