RESULT! Big Brother 6 was stuffed full of divas and drama queens, and who won? A down-to-earth Geordie. OK, Anthony was vain and a bit dim, but at heart he was decent; a nice, normal lad. All reet! Second place went to Eugene the sweet-natured nerd. And yes, admittedly he was weird and boring, but isn’t it refreshing that voters valued honesty and openness over hissy-fits and self-abasement? This year’s housemates were a largely unpleasant bunch of big-heads and show-offs. Makosi had been an early favourite but she lost us with her porky pies and treachery. Those daft pregnancy claims were her downfall. And boy did the crowd turn on her on Friday, chanting “Liar!” repeatedly, followed by “Off! Off! Off!” People who have read Orwell’s Big Brother novel 1984 would have been reminded of the Two Minutes Hate. It felt uncomfortable; but that’s because this show holds up a mirror to humanity and we don’t always like what we see.
Here’s my verdict on the highs and lows of BB6.
Best talking point: Craig’s unrequited love for Anthony.
Worst talking point: Kinga’s bottle job.
Funniest moment: Kinga trying to get on that bucking bronco.
Most interesting housemate: Derek.
Least interesting: Vanessa.
Most annoying: the pointlessly stroppy Science.
Most spoilt: Makosi.
Most wronged: Maxwell – Endemol nobbled the voting to get him evicted (but team Saskia still won! End of!)
Biggest hypocrite: Kemal, who called Saskia a slapper, but admitted to sex with a stranger in a skip!
Biggest girl: Craig – weepier than most pregnant women.
Creepiest Moment: Craig undressing the drunken Anthony.
Most deluded: Makoski, “I have never lost anything in my life.”
Top quote: Craig “Two words, Anthony - whatever.” Top catchphrase; “Off the hook.”
Worst psychic: Mary, who, on Friday, predicted Eugene would win.
Top fakes: Orlaith’s 30E chest enhancements.
Biggest fake: Makosi (see also, Biggest Two-Faced Back-Stabbing Pathological Fantasist).

I thought I would put this in the Big Brother 6 section so people could comment. Most people seem to miss reading the Press Coverage (http://www.thisisbigbrother.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?fid=168) section of the site or just don't like commenting on the stories anymore.
