Another BB set up for Alex

[alex_front2]

1) Fake tan
2) Choco-late eating
3) Rowing
4) Barbie quiz
5) Walking around house secret task, pretending to find lipstick
6) Booby prize of bed making

:joker: Does the girl need any more interventions from the BB producers to get her on the HLs :joker: Oh well, if all else fails kiss Tom :joker::joker:

[Ammi]

This entire week has been dedicated to the Aaron/Faye/Jem drama.......hahahahahahaha....oh dear....

[Vicky.]

Everyone had a part in the task yesterday. Alexs was no better than anyone elses (besides Toms...which was a bit crap)

Personally I couldnt watch Alexs and didnt find it funny at all, though I can see how others did. But I have a massive phobia of vomit so when she started retching I had to leave the room :/

Except that 1, 2, 3 & 6 were just parts of normal tasks that all housemates took part in

Yes exactly..the Harry Hunting task....Fay's quiz...Aaron's song......Alex had no special treatment...
and I agree...watching people retch always makes me feel the same....

[Vicky.]

Jem, Jay and Louise came out of last nights HLs looking like absolute bastards IMO. Sitting moaning on when Faye got questions right, Louise rolling her eyes as if to say 'I would have known that at the wrong ones when I doubt she would even know her arse from her elbow. Jay having a meltdown because Harry didnt know what bet they placed on him...erm hello?! You are in a separate room, is he meant to have x-ray vision or mind reading powers? :joker:

I am agreeing with you a lot today MTVN :dance:

[alex_front2]

It's nothing to do with whether it's a secret task, it's more to do with the fact Alex does sweet FA off her own esteem to get on HL. Almost every thing is BB set up related. Or she is pretending to be dumb to Harry and Aaron (who knows full well Alex is acting up)

yes, the forum is totally bonkers today....I've found myself defending Jay on more than on occassion....I'm going to wake up soon....I hope....

Its not really her fault that the only bits of her they show is when shes on a task though.

I very much doubt she sits around all day doing nothing except for when there is a task, which is what the HLs would have us believe

..this reminds me of that Monty Python Life of Brian clip...'what have the Romans ever done............' ...I can't take it seriously

[fruit_cake]

she has had a lot of favouritism shown in her favour imo

[vesavius]

general rant... Or she is pretending to be dumb to Harry and Aaron (who knows full well Alex is acting up)

Basicially, anything she does you dismiss then?

What really offends you? That she sometimes is allowed to cut into Aarons 4+ hours a week of camera time? Or that despite being ignored in the main by the edite suit (as they carve a narrative out fo the day from the tragic fauxmances) she is still right on top of the betting odds and on course for winning?

..I would think all of the above...

No concrete response then to defend Alex. Oh well :joker:

Even Jay broke 'the never slag off a fellow Geordie' code in the crypt with Anton when he watched LF and was shocked at how dull Alex was. :joker: :joker: :joker:

[Ammi]

...I think it's disgusting how Alex sometimes get's in the background camera shot...I blame BB for not airbrushing her out....blatent favouritism.....:sleep::sleep::sleep:

He actually said they were all dull to watch 24/7, which included Aaron by definition, just like alot of folks find LF 'boring'.

TBF on the editors, they do try to do this.

There was a clip not long ago where Alex literally disappeared into thin air mid shot :joker:

Brilliant!! that's made my day....I still can't stop smiling

I think it's a shame the BB producers don't have the courage to show more normal footage of Alex. Like the OP suggested, and i've also argued, most of her footage is stimulated by BB. I can imagine at the end of the series, when they make her highlights package, it'll be 80% concocted from the silly stuff a bunch of middle aged, suit wearing Producers sat around a table and thought it'd be funny to have her do.

There are plenty of funny conversations with Alex and other H.M's as there are clips of her joining in with spontaneous fun....if people choose to ignore these, that's up to them.....

Yeah, in patches, but nowhere near the quantity of most others. I'm sure i've watched entire episodes were she hasn't been heard from at all, or maybe got 30 secs footage max.

Yes...which is the whole point of the thread and saying that BB is ensuring airtime for Alex......they are indeed not..if anything she has had to take a backstage to all the dramas.....not that it's been a problem..she's entertaining enough to more than make up for that..
..a little bit of Alex goes a long way....

[psychtracker]

Yes...which is the whole point of the thread and saying that BB is ensuring airtime for Alex......they are indeed not..

Yes, but without BB's intervention we would have seen EVEN LESS of Alex, that's the whole point of thread as i see it.

[Ammi]

LOL...this thread is so gasping for life...you could say that of all the H.M's...if BB didn't 'create' situations there wouldn't be much to watch...giving them alcohol is creating scenarios...just so happens Alex doesn't drink so she's never made a t*t of herself...hardly a negative imo..most of the H.L shows are made up of 'couples'.....also tedious viewing...and yes that does push Alex out a bit...which is why it's brilliant she's still managed to be so entertaining...she's a natural..

I will see if I can find it :p

Never noticed that before. Can just imagine Alex thinking "can't listen to any more of this moaning ****e", then twitching her nose like the witch from tv show bewitched and disappearing. :-)

i for one wud love to see more of alex but bb seems intent on showing us Aaron/faye/jem or jay and louise they totally ignore wots going on with alex and tom!!!!!! i want MORE OF ALEX!!!!

[exoticrosebud]

i quite like alex and her quirkyness but i really didnt need to see or hear her throwing up into that bucket in the diary room for the betting task.

They have been proven to mess around with shots like this year after year... HMs are moved around in and removed/ added to shots all the time, to make it look like the room was empty when it wasn't etc.

The depth of the digital manipulation that happens on this show would shock most, even those aware of 'edits'.

For instance, BB could have easily have added Jem into that shot of her walking through the bathroom and looking at them while Faye and Aaron were having their talk. I am not saying they did, but that is exactly the kind of manipulation that's common to get a desired reaction from the more excitable viewers.

This is the reason I campaign for LF whenever I can. It might not be watched by million, and some may find iot boring, but it is always watched by someone which helps keep BB more honest.
