A total of 22 housemates participated in the [[Big Brother 2006 (UK)|seventh series]] of ''[[Big Brother (UK)|Big Brother]]'' in the UK, where they were observed by television viewers 24 hours a day and each week, and a housemate was voted to be evicted by the general public until the winner, [[Pete Bennett]], was left.

On Day 49, she then had to evict one of the remaining housemates in the House Next Door; she chose to evict Jonathan and returned with Spiral to the main House. Aisleyne was nominated in Weeks 6 and 8. She gained more and more popularity towards the end of the show.

Aisleyne finished in third place with 22%. She became the highest placed female. She currently{{When|date=

This meant that Dawn had no access to her deodorants and had strong [[body odour]] which transferred onto Grace's sweatshirt, which Nikki was wearing at that time. Dawn also became frustrated with the fact that she had no access to her clothes and stated she had to borrow clothes from the male housemates because the girls' didn't fit her.

After seven days in the house, Dawn received a message from her family saying "your sister is ill". She was later{{When|date=
November 2010 2}} observed to tell the other contestants that "I have a code" and "Something bad has happened, I need to leave". In the afternoon, Dawn announced that she was leaving, and that Big Brother had convinced her to stay for one more night so they could make arrangements for her departure. That evening, Dawn packed what little clothes she had, and made it quite clear she was going and hence she was no longer part of the game.
