After unsuccessfully auditioning for the fifth series of Big Brother in 2004 (as seen in Vanessa Nimmo from Big Brother 5's tape on launch night), Bennett was selected as one of the original housemates for the seventh series in 2006. He was the bookmakers' favourite throughout and eventually won with 61.2% of the final vote. The show was accused of exploiting Bennett's Tourette's syndrome: The Tourette Syndrome Association of the UK said "the broadcaster had deliberately cast someone with relatively strong symptoms in order to make him a 'figure of fun'." Some viewers expressed concern that the show had exploited Tourette's, while others felt it was educational and criticised the hypocrisy of UK TS organization for wanting the syndrome brought to the public consciousness but complaining when it was. Bennett was nominated for a National Television Award in 2006 for "Most Popular TV Contender"; however, the former Big Brother contestant Nikki Grahame won the award.

The people asking questions to the people with the answers The people with the answers ire the people with the questions So the people with the questions asked the people with the answers The people with the answers won't tell the people with the questions the answers So the people with the questions they ask the people with the answers But the people with the answers won't speak to them Because the people with the answers give the people with the questions just a little bit too hard a time to speak to I'm a man who likes to be alone I'm a man who likes to think alone I don't have too many answers, but I got a whole heap of questions I got a whole heap of questions that I won't hide from you So low, don't smile you get high [?] So the people with the books they went and stood up on the mountain To get away from the people with no books The people with the books they started reading on the mountain but they couldn't see a thing because the sky went dark I don't know where the cloud cover came from I'm just sitting here rocking on the station I don't want to be the type of guy who lives alone, reading books, and never eats a pizza pie I don't want to be the type of person sitting alone with a book on my own With a book on my own The people with the questions got together with the people with the books and left the people with answers out So the people with the answers started to make their way over the hill to meet with people with the questions and the people with the books And we all live together on a little round ball We all sing together when the cuckoo calls I'm not the type best living alone Could we live together? Well, I don't know.. I'm not sitting here giving you a lesson So I?ll just keep my mouth shut for the next few minutes Can't keep quiet for long I'm a human being Can't help help singing this song I'm a human being You won't listen to me I'm not an authority So the people with the answers met the people with the questions and the people with the books sat down They finally decided to sit around to talk about their problems to see if they come up with some answers to meet the questions and some questions to meet the answers well, the leaves on the trees are green [ok we're agreed on that] and the roads are not very clean [ok we're agreed on that] and the food we eat is not very healthy [ok we're agreed on that] and the music we make is not particularily good [ok we're agreed on that] and the planets sort of revolve around the sun [ok we're agreed on that] and the moon is a big ball with nothing on it, and I don't think anyone's ever been there [ok, so we're kind of agreed to that, so what are we arguing about? Well, I don't know.. Ok. so let?s get together and smoke that pizza pie] Some people with a pizza pie made me very high The people with the questions smile And the people with the answers lie They lie
