Definitely, Adam or Deana are the only other two candidates whose victory would not be a depressing outcome, bearing in mind that the HMs are chosen as a microcosm of wider society (Gloomy thought ...). If Conor or Caroline wins, it will be a sorry lookout for civilisation.

Thanks for your response, interesting to read I agree wholeheartedly and am very much rooting for an "outsider" to win the show (I am including Deana in this as well) as I would like to see good triumph over evil, to resort to a cliche

I'm sad that either one of Luke or Lauren has to leave on Friday, I am leaning towards Lauren to stay as I feel she's been more feisty and entertaining of the two, although I greatly admire Luke A. I'd be happy for whoever stayed to go on and win.

Overall, I would be upset to see anyone other than the two potential evictees or Adam or Deana take the crown. None of them deserve it.

Thank you for asking. The face to face noms were distasteful to watch, but somewhat revealing, as they confirmed what had been suspected: the tightness of the Insider group, at least when they are in a context where they don't feel free to express their negative feelings about each other, so they look for weaker targets. Having said that, I hope they don't repeat it, or each week will be very predictable. The gunshot sound effects put me in mind of the last scene of "Blakes Seven", with the good guys all being shot down by the evil Federation ... The one good moment was Deana standing up to Conor. I hope we shall see more of that, and others as well as her. His "recruitment" of Scott and Becky after Shievonne's eviction was cringe-inducing to watch, and all the more so for having been successful.

As for this week, I don't want either of those two to leave. I have a tiny preference for Luke A, just because he really took a big risk in applying and being so open about his back story.

hello Anthony Just wanted to get your take on who you feel will go on Friday? What fif you make of the face to face noms? General consensus seems to be that it was a complete farce, I tend to agree.

fingers crossed then.

Yes, I think there is little-to-no chance of that, but always next year.

Well if you've had a good browse on here, you'll have seen that the general consensus was that you should have gone in. Becky, don't rate her, we've seen it all before. Shame there's no chance of you going in at a later stage.

Having a good time, thanks. A relief to be able to finally talk openly about the experience.

Lovely to receive your friend request.
