I can't help but think, if we are all so content with a nice but boring winner, what's the point of putting a load of entertaining but 'nasty' people in there in the first place? As much as I feel more settled that a nice guy won the money, the fact that the housemates are clearly mostly picked on entertainment factor should indicate that the "winner" should be someone entertaining.

This is a thread from DS. It mad me :joker: It's from Teeky pie.

I loved Luke A and voted for him as he made me laugh.
Rachel I liked as she was a good person - I think forfeiting her letter from home got her the win but I so wanted Rex to win that year.
Sam - well enough said on that one.
I guess they need a mix of people to get the best from the series so no I wouldn't watch a series full of the same types.

I don't know why people say Luke A was a bad winner, even though I wanted Adam to win, anyone of the trio of Deana/Adam/Luke A would have been okay. They were all involved in lots of storylines, so no comparison to he who can't be named really.:devil:

No, but would you be able to watch a house full of Dexters, Ginas and Dans? It would give me a migraine.

You need a good mix of personality types for it to work.

Day 28 in the Big Brother House

Sam from BB14 and Gos from BB4 are having a competition....
to see who can sleep on the sofas the longest.
Sam is on the green sofa, Gos is on the orange sofa, snoring very loudly.

Steph from BB4 enters the room with a feather duster and brush & pan and starts sweeping up around them.
Sam wakes briefly, shouts "B*ll*cks!" under his breath in Steph's general direction, then goes back to sleep.

Steph, slightly shaken by Sam's outburst, goes to clean the other side of the room instead.
She opens the hatch and shoves in the feather duster.
A sneeze is heard.
"Oh, sorry Sunitta (BB3), didn't know you were in there. Sorry"

Steph closes the hatch and goes to clean the Diary Room instead.

Laura from BB11 is sat in the bathroom, crying.
Maysoon from BB9 enters and asks her what's wrong.
Laura: "I want to leave. I just can't cope in here"
Maysoon: "Well, it's funny you should say that, but...."

Alice is in the garden.
Alice? Alice? Who the ******* is Alice?

Lee from BB3 is flexing his muscles, trying to impress her.
She's not interested though, so Lee puts the mangle down
and lies down next to Steve from BB11.
After much scratching of the backside,
they start a conversation about the No.32 bus route from Leicester market.
Rivetting!

Luke A from BB13 is in the smoking area smoking his 24th consecutive roll up.

Cameron from BB4 emerges from the vegetable patch.
"I've been to Africa, you know!"

Susie from BB7 (where the hell did she come from?): "Oh, can't say I'd noticed. Do be a good chap and go make us all a lovely cup of tea."

Jonathan from BB7 is still in the secret room.
"Can I come out of here now, or what?"

Kara-Louise from BB8 is in the kitchen stuffing a chicken.
Penny from BB2 is holding an egg, taking one step forward and then one step back whilst uttering "chicken, egg, chicken, egg, chicken, egg" repeatedly...

Cameron comes in and puts the kettle on.

Kara-Louise bursts into tears.

Cameron: "I've not even said anything yet. What's up with you?"

Hira from BB10 is in the bedroom, hiding under the covers.
Nush & Scott from BB4 are sitting on the bed opposite, holding hands, but saying nothing - just staring at Hira.
Awkward! How bizarre!

Back in the living room... Gos has stirred... oh no wait, no, he's gone back to sleep again. Damn!

"This is Big Brother......... Oh forget it, I can't be bothered. Carry on...."

Tune in tomorrow for the next exciting episode.

Genuinely LOLed at this :laugh2:

You can't have a house full of Sam's and you can't have a house of Dexter's when are people going to get it through their thick skulls that voting a person to win doesn't mean you want the whole house to be like them.


It's like banging your head against a brick wall with some people.

Yes because none of those housemates were involved in false boring love triangles and then bored almost every highlights with daft conversation sof same night after night.
So at least with them, we got no false showmances nonsense.

My thoughts exactly.It's good to have all types in there.People will vote for the person they LIKE,To win.The winner is'nt so important though.It's the whole show imo.

No I wouldnt want 15 Sams. But then agan I dont want 15 Gina's either. You need a good mix and leave it up to the public. As logn as its a good series throughout, the actual winner doesnt impact me five seconds beyond the announcement. This was a good series for two months with a few minutes of disappointment at the end. I can live with that.

And would anyone want Sam's and Rachel's in the house again?

22-08-2013, 04:58 PM
I think the OP is completely pointless tbh, I doubt anyone would be interested in a house full of people the exact same, one of the reasons I watch BB is because we get a wide range of people with completely different personalities flung in to live together in an enclosed space.

Alright then what did Rachel have about her that was interesting? I can't remember one interesting conversation off her, I can't remember what tastes in any entertainment industry that she had, the only things that we knew that she liked was Grapes and Chickpeas.


So yes she's a terrible winner, at least Sam had likeablity unlike Rachel who pretended that Lisa was bullying her.

Uhhh idk if you even watched BB9 because Rachel is, like, the definition of UTR fun and had one of the greatest journeys in reality TV history. Dealing with relentless **** from just about everyone for daring to be pleasant and not wanting to start arguments, only to righteously slay all of her oppressors and win, it really doesn't get much better than that.

Let me start by saying that yes I would.

Let me finish by saying that I did find the other housemates entertaining, a bit like a bear in a zoo, or the jeremy kyle show.

I just didn't want to see any of them financially rewarded for being idiots.

This. He got the most votes and won and there have only been one or two (literally) series where the person I wanted to win actually did win. It's just a TV show. :bored:

I'm also getting sick of people basically being told what to like, as if others can't have differing opinions.

from what I remember

- Standing up for Rebecca against Alexandra "MEMBA I TOLD YOU" Gale
- Being a judge in the competition where they have to recreate landmarks out of cake and rewarding Mikey & Kat's team who just took the piss and created a complete ****heap of cake over Rex and Darnells team who actually put in a lot of effort and vaguely looked like the building they were trying to replicate. <3
- Standing her ground and being completely righteous whenever Rex took the piss out of her.
- ****zing the **** out over the most mudane **** (grapes, chickpeas, goldfish)
- Sacrificing her letter from home to get everyone elses and then not letting them know that she sacrificed hers is probably one of the most heartwarming BB moments we've had
- "Are you black, Darnell?"
- When Stuarts self-victimizing himself saying "The public are miscontruing me as arrogant" And Rachel just telling him "Yeah, you are! ^_^" <3

She's just a generally positive, rootable and sometimes endearing character with plenty of content for her to be a decent winner. Hell, I wasn't even a big Rachel fan but she's really not as dire as everyone makes out.

Rachel was a terrible housemate. She is dull, insipid, anodyne and boring. She won because the great Rex picked on her a bit. She doesn't have a personality and shouldn't have won.
