Daniel ranks the BBUK Golden Era Housemates - BB5, BB6, BB7

[Daniel.]

So I have been planning on doing this for a while, and thought why not start now while I am rewatching BB5 and the forum is dead.

SO

I will be ranking all 51 golden era housemates from least favourite to favourite, I know most of you already have a good idea who I will have high, but hopefully there will be some surprises along the way.

Everyone will get a short write up, feel free to comment along the way.

51. Richard Newman/

I mean this should come as no surprise but let me try and explain why I dislike this hypocritical slime ball so much.

Richard was a terrrribleeeee housemate imo, I know some on here like him so feel free to chime in but yeah for me he was everything I dislike in a housemate - a bully, a turncoat, two faced, hypocritical, unselfaware, borderline series ruining oh and yeah he was boring too. I mean he may objectively be a big character but how big a character can you really be when you spend half the series sat in the lounge with Susie or sucking Pete Bennet's arsehole?

My initial dislike came from the first week, where he mercilessly bullied Shahbaz. I know Sezer often gets the blame for this but in my opinion Richard was the ringleader in arguably the nastiest apout of bullying this show has seen in 18 years. Sending him to Coventry, teasing him with crisps while he was locked outside, it was all so nasty and unpleasant to watch. Of course as a staunch plastics fan I was always going to oppose his hatred but seriously he HATED Imogen for no reason, citing her as dull and boring, Sure I can see why he would think that, but I mean Richard thinks hes interesting because he wears one glove and is apparently butch so yeah check yourself first. He also kept going on about how BITCHY they were, but seriously, while this is true, he was probably the biggest bitch in the house? Everyone saw through it, going from house enmies Sezer and Imogen to close friends Nikki and Lea, everyone got tired of this man's constant spouting of bull****.

My main dislike though comes from the second to last week, think back to week 4 when he HATED Grace for throwing water on Susie, yet as soon as he saw her he was all "GRACE IS FIERCE, MWAHAHA" like fuuuck shut UP you nauseating human, oh and then spent the last week up Nikki and Pete's arse because he knew they were popular whilst helping isolate Aisleyne so it was SWEET when Aisleyne beat him.

So yeah, I cant stand Richard and for me he is the worst housemate of the three golden era series, but still he's not among the worst ever ever and there were some good things about him, but as a housemate, I couldnt bare watching him.

Excited for this I just hope you can be slower at posting these since even though I knew Richard would be last for you, the rest are worth the rewatch of these series you're doing.

I could've HATED Richard and pretty much agree with most of what you've said but there were a few small moments to make me dislike many other housemates. Taking the piss out of Spiral all the time<3. The Lisa impersonation.<3. Losing to Aisleyne and trembling worrying he'd be booed while holding in the rage that she beat him.<333

There's a few other things worth mentioning though to dislike him. Some of the catty comments he made were less funny and more disgusting. Calling Glyn 'Forrest Gump' . Repeatedly calling Michael 'she' and generally being homophobic to someone just recently coming out . Forcing a gay stereotype persona in 2006 .

I dunno, I do dislike him but he's a recognizable staple of BB7 with lots of importance that half the time was tolerable and he was even righteous about things when other people weren't on a few occasions, so I can never hate him properly even when I want to

Looking forward to this

Although I have a feeling I know who your Top 5 are

50. Spiral Coroner



Not much to say on Spiral apart from that I strongly disliked him. He was sexist towards Aisleyne, easily offended, petty and despite this had very little to do with the story and was actually rather boring, as a person.

I suppose what really made me dislike Spiral was how he disliked Aisleyne because she refused to kiss him in spin the bottle. She doesn't have to you immature beast she's 27 years old and owes you nothing. It was all so entitled and gross, and highlighted how immature this guy really is. He then accused her of tempting the men or something by walking around in a thong to which she clocked his sexist ways. Also remember when he randomly went OFF on Nikki for like...no reason? Such an aggressive loser.

Bye Spiral!

49. Eugene Sully

The first BB6 housemate goes...and it isn't Maxwell! Sorry but although Eugene was a nice enough person I found him absolutely insufferable to watch, and easily the least relevant housemate of BB6. Take him out and nothing changes apart from Derek possibly goes further which is a good thing. Every boring cringeworthy story about throwing telly's off cliffs or raio club or Morse Code just didn't raise a smile for me when we had a house FULL of actually funny people like Kemal and Derek. I felt every scene he was in would be better spent on literally ANY of the other housemates, like watching Makosi sleep would be more charming and interesting and I'm not joking.

There was also a time where he wanted Science to have a fight so he would get kicked out, which really isn't nice at all, and suggested poising his food? I found Eugene such a weak man with no backbone or any compelling personality at all, and for that he is by far the weakest BB6 housemate for me.

excuse me

[Beastie]

I don't agree with Daniels countdown at the moment. Vanessa and Imogen are clearly at the bottom.

[Matthew.]

i can see why he’s not everyone’s cup of tea though, he’s not exactly the most relevant person of BB6

[Beastie]

I liked Eugene from BB6. Anthony who won it was worse than him. I bloody loved Kinga though. She better be high. And Susie better be low. I'm still not forgiving her for putting Grace and Nikki up. She was boring and irrelevant and shouldn't have gone in.

Or okay just ignore me

[Epic.]

And Eugene was NOT a nice person. Being passive and non-confrontational doesn't make you a nice person. Craig was on point about all the secret deviousness.

Which Vanessa? Either way Imogen won't be out for a while

What do you want me to say? I am taking it rather slowly at the moment.

[Beastie]

Spiral: I'd do anyyything for you! I liked Jayne from bb7. She was underrated. Glyn was overated.

Both Vanessas should not make the top 40 or Dimogen or Susie.

[Beastie]

Kinga is my number 1

poor Vanny Mac

[Beastie]

How long will this countdown last? Will we get to number 1 before tonight's celebrity catchphrase?

[Germyle]

Too much time on your hands, also Richard was a great housemate and Eugene shouldn't be so low

[Beastie]

Come on Daniel whos 48th? I have no life and want to know

[Beastie]

Richard Newman was a poor man's Dan BB5. I loved Dan from BB5. He better make the top 10. I've also met him. Lovely fellow!
