When Big Brother is on, there is a divide in who people like.
This year the publics favourites are people like John James and Josie.
But the forums e.g. DS and Tibb seem to be filled with JJJ haters.
When have the forum people actually won and chosen the not favourite to win housemate to win?
I think Rachel Rice is a good example of this. All the forum people loved her but when it came to her eviction with Stuart, all the crowd booed her.

I have never known this before..... normally when you read the forum you just know who is going by the posts etc.
I have the last couple of weeks been prepared for JJ1 to go because of the amount of hatred on here (which is stated but sometimes in the most unacceptable manner).
However he has survived both weeks. I do believe this year that the GP opinion does not reflect the forum....and this year the GP have won!!!
Thank you GP....
I did not think Rachel Rice was the right winner.... I think I must be a great representative of the GP...

With Rachel I'm just chuffed she won over Michael. Not that she's the deserving winner at all.

Well the population of this forum is far smaller then the viewers who watch BB in total.

The public have been far more correct than the forums about housemates before. Especially in BB5 and BB9.
Most of the time though, the forums can be a nice sanctuary from public stupidity. They recognised that old bat Carole for what she was, saw through Charlie in BB10 (although were too harsh on Rodrigo in my view) and seem to be the last bastion of sanity this year.

DS is usually hilarious - they had Stephanie Beacham and Latoya Jackson to win their respective CBBs :hugesmile:
Here is quite hilarious on evictions, but then you just need to compare the silly threads to front page polls.

But the public predict it more correctly by voting???? You've given me tears in my eyes

This has nothing to do with predictions and even if it did, look at how far forum favourites Victor, Aisleyne, Samanda, Rex and Freddie got.

Totally agree reece, Rachel certainly wasn't my favorite, but i liked her way more than Mikey.

I have to say, i was one of the one's that did like him, right until a few days before he was evicted.

the way i look at Freddie last year is similar to how i look at Ben there like a stick of bubble gum you can chew for hours but eventually its going to lose it flavour and that's what happened to them .

I'm just saying the betting favourites beat the forum favourites in those series so I don't understand how what I said was comically absurd.

the public were fickle with freddie.
because he was loved at one point like a crazy obcession and the next he was hated for having ago on lisa/bully,naughty freddie you should have been crying and acting all defenceless.

The point is the people who vote cause the eviction.
Now those who vote can get together and all vote the same way to get someone evicted rather than splitting the vote.
Last year a group decided to prevent Joe McElderry getting a No1 for Christmas and they did that.
The same will happen this year. If girls want JJames as winner he will be winner.

Bea caused Freddie's downfall.
Rachel caused Ben's downfall. She was still at it on BBLB. Fortunately no one took any notice.
yup, good 'ol days of Rachel Rice.
