I'm guessing Mikey. Not just because I dislike him and think he's a bully, but also because it's being edited to get him out.

Even when he's happy, he's just dreadful. He can't cope with confrontation, though, and he has no daring sense of fun about him. Not everyone likes arguing, but he's like a big baby about it. Grumpy is not a great image - he needs more 1 liners if there is going to be any (relatable/likeable) point to his ever-so-cliched frustrations.

It is too good an opportunity to waste: get Mikey out! He has just said on live feed (tragic, I know) "I'm just a normal lad". Arse.
In some ways, I don't really care: it would have mattered if he could have been evicted much earlier. I don't want Susie to go, and Jennie hasn't done anything wrong. It would be good to see Imogen go, but Mikey must be the target this week.

Before I looked into this thread I was thinking 'Susie! Susie!' (although I do actually like her, I'd love to see how the house dynamic changes without her, and she's never going to win), but then the thought of Mikey's smug little face as he gets evicted before her made me realise how much I'd rather have him be given the boot.

As long as Suzie and Imogen stay I'm a happy boy. Why would you want Imogen out? I like her more each time I see a live stream. And without her Ashylene is a goner, which in itself doesn't bother me, but she is Glyn and Pete's only real rival for the prize.

I did originally think that I was going to hate Mikey, but he hasn't got on my tits anywhere near as much as I thought he would.
Jenny isn't objectionable, but is so boring that when I try to remember who the remaining housemates are, I sometimes forget her.
Imogen is a bit dull, and I'm a bit pissed off that she allowed herself to nominate Michael under the malign influence of Sooz, even though he was supposed to be one of her best friends.
I really want Sooz to go. I totally sympathise with her not wanting to join in fun things/ have alone time/ not want to be rude but then why on earth earth did she have her pimp husband spend thousands of pounds trying to get her in there? Also in the burping task she said her parents had always taught her that it was rude to burp. Presumably they never taught her that it was also a bit naughty to be a pole-/lap-dancer. The fucking twat!

Susie was hilarious last night. That answering machine that kept her in the queue had me in stitches!

The only thing I dislike about Mikey is his previous alliance with the repugnant Grace. Otherwise, he's like a very stupid labrador. To apply normal human values to him would be like anthropomorphising a pot plant. Therefore, I have no strong, or even mild, feelings about him at all.

...I have no strong, or even mild, feelings about him at all. Sadly I have no strong or even mild feelings about any of them that are left. I'd be quite happy if they just sealed up the doors and turned off the cameras. |

To be honest, from having watched every night, including BBLB, BBBM and often the live feed, I've gone to dipping in maybe twice a week. And even then, none of them hold my attention. As a huge BB fan I hope next year they learn from their mistakes. It's gone on far too long this year, with too many housemates and just seems to be dragging.

I'd agree that it's gone on way too long this year, but the last few weeks have had the production team coming up with some brilliant ideas. I thought the prison was really entertaining and watching Glyn with the keypad this week has been brilliant.
Mind you, I'm only watching one or two of the shows a week now. Apart from BBLB. Which isn't a TV programme - it's a chance to worship Dermot.

I watch BBBM every night as I love The Brand and his mentalist audience, but I only watch the show itself about twice a week at the moment.
I was a big Ash fan, but she's not had much to work with lately. The only one out of the 4 nominees who doesn't bore me to the brink of suicide is Suze, mainly because of her mysterious way of being very prim and prudish, while having those silly boobs and being a grimey lapdancer. She's a wonderful walking contradiction.

Is she actually a lapdancer though? Sure there's that video, but that's acting in a way. I can't imagine Sooz actually lapdances on a regular basis. Is it just what the papers say?

I really like Imogen and Jennie now. The fact they both stuck up to the fuckwit Mikey makes me like them. Of course Aisleyne is still my favourite:
"Weirdos!"

I know, I'm coming around to Imogen too. She seems to have put more clothes on too. I don't know if this is part of my reason. She seems like a basically decent person, albeit a little too easily led by other bitchy girls.

Mikey MUST go. He's picking fights with everyone, and not even the good, entertaining kind of fight. It's the so-boring-and-frustrating-you-want-to-scream kind. The points he tries to make when he's arguing with someone make him sound like he has a mental age of about 5.

I've only noticed recently how pretty Imogen actually is. In her Miss Wales pictures she looks really plain but she's actually quite gorgeous.
Mikey still bores the pants off me. He's the Big Brother stock character, we haven't seen anything more to him since he went in.

Slightly off topic...
Does anyone feel the idea that the Big Brother house was falling down after 10 weeks was genius?!
Why did the production team not run with that for longer? What would have been good to watch would be if Big Brother hadn't have come back from holiday and the housemates had no one "in charge" of them, so to speak. It would have been interesting to see how they'd cope without the figure of authority they'd come to depend on for so long

It would have been interesting to see how they'd cope without the figure of authority they'd come to depend on for so long I was disappointed when they told them who had been nominated. It would have been fascinating to see how long they coped with the uncertainty. And now there's 2 evictions this week, it will be vaguely interesting to see how they do it - I assume they won't do it with the 2 highest phone votes as it was misleading to the public if there were 2 people to vote for. |

How do you know about the double eviction? I have seen talk of a "twist" which people seem to think might mean Nikki going back in (people= digitalspy forum contributers, so I use the term loosely), but I think that is unlikely. I can't see anything about this on the bb website.
EDIT: They have just said on BBBM (I wish I didn't watch it) that two people are going, so it must be true (I didn't doubt you!). Blimey - better get voting for Imogen as well!

NO!
Sooz is surely going to go. SAD SAD SAD. Also pissed off as I've now organised a night out and won't get to see it. Idiot Big Brother surprises.

Davina gave Sooz a bit of a rough ride, didn't she. Fair enough, I thought. Sooz was pretty funny in terms of her resolute refusal to join in with anything, but in the end I started to feel like she was a small-minded fembot drone... slagging off Welsh to the Welsh speakers' faces 'it looks like a child scrawled it down' because she has no patience with doing any task - what would she rather be doing, drinking fucking tea??? I know that it's been said she was very normal and that's how most of us would react, but I have to say faced with days of grinding tedium I'd be throwing myself into all the tasks much more enthusiastically.
And as for her ridiculous, embarrassing desire to become a TV presenter... WHY?? And did she not think 'hmmm... of the 100 odd big brother contestants, how many have had successful TV careers of more than five minutes' and work out that she had a ludicrously low chance of success even given the fact that she'd proved herself enthusiastic, bubbly and warm? And did she not think therefore that in order to get this impossible TV dream job she would have to *be* enthusiastic, bubbly and warm?
There's 'normal' people going into the house ("that's why imogen's dull" etc etc - but hey can you be normal and want to go on BB?) and then there's Sooz. Her greyed-up anti-fun necrotic pomposity amounts to make her in-house character nothing less than a walking representation of the Death Of The Soul.
And tea is rubbish.
