Amazing transformation of BB’s Sezer the Geezer: college mates claimed they poked fun at Big Brother contestant
By Paul Torpey
It could be an interesting summer for reality TV fans in the borough as a city slicker from Winchmore Hill enjoys 15 minutes of fame on Channel 4's Big Brother.
Sezer Yurtseven, 26, claims to have worked his way up from the lowly rank of tea boy in the City to become the youngest stockbroker on the floor at the age of 18.

The former boxer, who lives with his mother, has his own trading company and claims to have once spent £5,000 on alcohol in one night.
Despite his rapid ascent of the corporate ladder, Sezer still managed to fit in a period of study at Enfield College.
One former classmate claimed on an internet messageboard he was not always the well-oiled ladies man he appears on the show.
They said: "Sezer was a complete turn-off at that time for personality and looks. He was a loner who used to say the utmost random things. We all used to take the mickey out of Sezer but I am surprised and amazed by his supposed transformation."
Sezer was one of 14 contestants who originally entered the Big Brother house on May 18.
He did not wait long to make his mark, flirting constantly with both Welsh beauty queen Imogen Thomas and gay barman Richard Newman.
Sezer's antics have seen him labelled vain, sleazy and sexist and it is unlikely he will have the same wholesome appeal as family man Andy Abraham, who became Enfield's reality TV hero last year when he was an X-Factor runner-up.
Despite this, the lothario could end up winning if contestants continue to drop out at the current rate, with three walking out since the show started.
Housemates were stunned earlier in the week when two surprise new contestants, Aisleyne and Sam, joined the fun but Sezer wasted no time in questioning their motives.
The Enfieldian charmer has overcomeheartache on his way to the Big Brother house, his father Salim was sent to prison for ten years at Wood Green Crown Court in 2001 for his part in a £4 million heroin smuggling ring.
