Helen is now the most likeable female housemate

[Locke.]

Must admit I didn't see this one coming

[Josy]

I wouldn't go as far to say likeable but she's one of the ones that doesn't annoy me to watch recently.

[Kizzy]

Getting there, she wears her heart on her sleeve that's for sure. Her response to chris was lovely.

[Josy]

Getting there, she wears her heart on her sleeve that's for sure. Her response to chris was lovely.

I was surprised at that actually, not one other person bothered to go to Chris apart from Helen, that was nice of her.

[jet]

I don't think any of the females are that likable, and certainly not Helen! She's awful :shocked:

[smeagol]

yeah and rolf harris is a ideal babysitter lol

[Niamh.]

:umm2:

Peoples memories are so short lol she hasn't verbal assaulted anyone for a couple of days and suddenly she's Mother Teresa

[Niamh.]

I was surprised at that actually, not one other person bothered to go to Chris apart from Helen, that was nice of her.

How do you actually know that though? we only saw a few minutes of a whole days worth. Ashleigh and Chris are close, Ashleigh was also upset by his speech, I would bet she also spoke to him but that wouldn't have been "news worthy"

[erinp5]

Helen is vile and certainly not likeable .

[Brother Leon]

I may have to confirm this soon.

[Alf]

She's a Docker and always will be.

Funny how she couldn't be a pleasant human being before she got warned and saw her associates in the house get evicted or booed.

Me thinks this is all disingenuous on her part.

[jet]

:umm2:

Peoples memories are so short lol she hasn't verbal assaulted anyone for a couple of days and suddenly she's Mother Teresa

:laugh: Spot on Niamh!

[Johnnyuk123]

Getting there, she wears her heart on her sleeve that's for sure. Her response to chris was lovely.

And she wears her knickers on a headboard. :joker:

[MeMyselfAndI]

I Was just about to ask Josy where she got her live feed from, but then i saw this, so [2]

[Kizzy]

Some people just need more time to open up and trust than others, she's seeing that she can identify with chris and it's given them some common ground.
He can maybe see she uses a brash exterior to cover the fact shes very vulnerable?

[mrflibble]

:umm2:

Peoples memories are so short lol she hasn't verbal assaulted anyone for a couple of days and suddenly she's Mother Teresa
Yup, she's still the most horrible female in there. She has shown a more vulnerable side, but that doesn't excuse the horrible things she's done. And she's still being a hypocrite (the things she said about Ashleigh/Danielle, 'bitching in the corner', 'having a strop when they don't get their way'. She's restraining herself because of the warning, but she's still that same person.

[rubymoo]

No! Helen is certainly not likable, vile woman.

[Marsh.]

I wouldn't say she was likeable either.

But, unlike the majority of the others at least she is what you see is what you get.

She's not hiding behind the "good Catholic girl" bollocks for one.

I don't support her, but she's been less annoying than everyone else the last few highlights shows.

[Mystic Mock]

I was surprised at that actually, not one other person bothered to go to Chris apart from Helen, that was nice of her.

I know, his acting managed to trick her.

[Beso]

she's as likeable as pol pot.

[joeysteele]

Getting there, she wears her heart on her sleeve that's for sure. Her response to chris was lovely.

I have to add to what you say above,genuine too.
I thought that a really good moment,she is slowly winning me over more.

[Mystic Mock]

yeah and rolf harris is a ideal babysitter lol

I'll have you know that Rolf Harris really was a great babysitter lol.














I know it's a poor joke but my dark sense of humour couldn't help it.

[Josy]

Well we comment on what we see and that's what was shown :shrug:

So it's wrong for me to say Helen was the only one to go to him when that was actually shown but it's then ok for you to assume Ashleigh went to him out of all the other hm's...

[Marc]

It's impossible to like her

[Niamh.]

Well we comment on what we see and that's what was shown :shrug:

Yes but you're actually commenting on what you didn't see by stating no one else bothered to go up to him, you don't know that. Helen going up to him would just have been more viewable cos they're not very close and they're obviously looking for Helen redemption stories atm

[chuff me dizzy]

I find the new Mother Theresa Helen ,hard to stomach ,but she needs to stay for viewing

[Beso]

She got mugged off twice last night..haha.

[Josy]

Yes but you're actually commenting on what you didn't see by stating no one else bothered to go up to him, you don't know that. Helen going up to him would just have been more viewable cos they're not very close and they're obviously looking for Helen redemption stories atm

I disagree that they are looking for Helen redemption stories but regardless of that you also suggested something you didn't see when I said something about what we did as well as what we didnt, I only post my own opinion and like most people make that opinion based on what we are shown on the highlights.

[Niamh.]

I'm totally confused lol, that's like a riddle :laugh:

Definitely agree with this.

[Marsh.]

There's no point bringing what "may" have happened offscreen up because we'll never know.

The same could be said with Helen's outbursts. There may be times when other housemates have been screaming their head off but they edit it out and only make out that Helen is overreacting.

There's no point because we don't know. We can only comment on what we see. What we saw was everyone stay in doors and Helen sit outside with Chris.

[Josy]

I'm totally confused lol, that's like a riddle :laugh:

How though?

You questioned my post asking 'how would I know that?' then you followed that with your own assumptions.

I based my assumption on what the highlights showed us, you never, hence the reason I was confused at you questioning my opinion.

[Vanessa]

Getting there, she wears her heart on her sleeve that's for sure. Her response to chris was lovely.

yes and she was the only one to go to chris when he was upset.

[Niamh.]

Just the way you phrased it, I didn't understand what you meant :laugh:

You said nobody bothered going up to Chris as if it was a fact, I said Ashleigh probably did as well :hmph:

[Niamh.]

yes and she was the only one to go to chris when he was upset.

But you don't know that, just because they only showed Helen talking to him doesn't mean no one else did

[Josy]

Just the way you phrased it, I didn't understand what you meant :laugh:

You said nobody bothered going up to Chris as if it was a fact, I said Ashleigh probably did as well :hmph:

I never said it as fact I just posted what we saw :laugh:

Why would you just assume Ashleigh then though? Chris has quite a few friends in there so to automatically assume Ashleigh and no one else is a bit odd.

[Vanessa]

But you don't know that, just because they only showed Helen talking to him doesn't mean no one else did

Of course, that is possible.

[joeysteele]

I actually agree with you Josy and also last nights highlights were all about Ashleigh in the main,even ending with her smug speech in the diary room.

I feel as near sure as I can be,had she gone to Chris we would have been shown that.
However as you poimted out, the highlights showed others impressed by Chris but only Helen actually seeking him out and talking to him.

We can all assume all we like as often I do too, but there is no arguing that if and whoever did, go to Chris,if they did then it was only Helen's that was shown.
Therefore as you rightly pointed out,because that was shown, it is then a proven fact she went to Chris, whereas that is not the case at all with the other housemates.

[hijaxers]

Ya can't polish a turd- Fullstop

[Niamh.]

I never said it as fact I just posted what we saw :laugh:

Not just Ashleigh but I named her because both her and Helen seemed most effected of the girls by Chris speech and the boys weren't there to hear it

[susie q]

Shes only trying to save Ash from eviction. Give her a drink and she will go back to her normal self.

[Jemal]

I like her now but she isnt on winstons level in terms of support.

[Vanessa]

I knew she had a nicer side. Glad she's starting to show it. :love:

[Natalie.]

Nah,not whilst Ashleigh is in the house

[Kazanne]

I'm liking Helen much better that I did,and I prefer her to the likes of Ashleigh,who talks the talk but doesn't do the walk,

[Niamh.]

I'm liking Helen much better that I did,and I prefer her to the likes of Ashleigh,who talks the talk but doesn't do the walk,

Ashleigh walks the walk, we saw that in how she's handled this Power task

[tanussa]

I'm warming to helen, shes def the most genuine girl, tells it to u atraight, but can be caring when necessary, so u know thats real, and now the evil ashleigh has come out of her shell, she makes helen look like mother theresa (sorry for the religious quip, fake danielle)

[Kazanne]

Ashleigh walks the walk, we saw that in how she's handled this Power task

Not in my opinion Niamh she went about that in a crafty and cowardly way.I'de have agreed had she played on an even playing field.

[Vanessa]

I think Helen puts up a tough esterior, but inside she's soft. :p

[Kazanne]

THIS^ That 'tough' side seems to be a defence mechanism

[Vanessa]

Ashleigh never says things to people's faces and that bothers me a lot.

[Robodog]

Jale is the most likeable. She keeps the peace and sees the good in people, even when she has been treated badly. And she has a good sense of humour.

Helen looks better now for showing true feelings and care with Chris. Plus she is now reflecting on her bad side and is not trying to pretend she is snow white.

Danielle does pretend she is snow white and she talks alot of hot air. Ashleigh is like Toya's spin off show. Kimberly is a bit too controlled and distant for me.

Jale and Helen are the most enjoyable female HMs right now.

I like their friendship. Sometimes people who have nothing in common can become good mates.

[Niamh.]

Not in my opinion Niamh she went about that in a crafty and cowardly way.I'de have agreed had she played on an even playing field.

Doing it in a crafty way is what got her the win lol that's far more entertaining then wailing like a banshee Helen style

[smeagol]

cant believe anyone would like that vile creature. or flall for the act. d
people desperate to see the good in evil cause if they do it someone makes them better people.but it doesn't
its lambs to the slaughter the woman is scum

bb are trying to paint her in a good light now cause they are under pressure to revoke the pass. hence the whole chris thing and ashleigh not shown
trying to redeem them selves and pull back some viewers they have lost due to giving the hoe a free pass

[Robodog]

I like their friendship. Sometimes people who have nothing in common can become good mates.

Yeah i agree. That was a nice moment of the series, both of them showing some vulnerability and bonding over it.

[Kazanne]

She hasn't won anything though has she Niamh? Ash hasn't gone yet!!!! All she 'got' was her own way,which I am sure she is used to getting,it's the way it was played that was low,imo.

[Spoon]

She most certainly is not likable, nor the most likable female housemate. She is the least likable female HM. One more-sympathetic edit on a highlights episode does not make her any better of a person.

[Niamh.]

She hasn't won anything though has she Niamh? Ash hasn't gone yet!!!! All she 'got' was her own way,which I am sure she is used to getting,it's the way it was played that was low,imo.

She succeeded in not saving him........she can't control who's voted out. I have no sympathy for that vile bully Helen, she deserves everything she gets

[Kazanne]

But by underhand means :smug: but anyway,I like her more now , it may change again next week

[Niamh.]

But by underhand means :smug: but anyway,I like her more now , it may change again next week

By clever means :smug:

[Vanessa]

I'm liking Ashleigh less and less. She's very sly.

[Lwize]

Helen hasn't gotten better - she just hasn't been drunk in a week.
Give her some alcohol and the Helen we know and loath will return.

[Bluerang1]

:umm2:

Peoples memories are so short lol she hasn't verbal assaulted anyone for a couple of days and suddenly she's Mother Teresa

You're so on point his season :worship:

[nina73]

oh come on wise up every one all the tears are for the camera ..

[rusticgal]

oh come on wise up every one all the tears are for the camera ..


....people have short memories. You don't just change like that. She said herself she is holding back...we all know she is on a final warning so she is on her best behaviour.
Remember the highlights are heavily edited....they have to be. As Niamh said I doubt she was the only one to speak to Chris... BB just want to focus on the rare moment Helen shows a human side to her vile character.

[Patricia4]

Helen hasn't gotten better - she just hasn't been drunk in a week.

Spot on its all a show till she get's some drink.

[Mystic Mock]

I like that though as every Housemate can't be argumentative like Helen tbf.

[Vanessa]

I likd that though as every Housemate can't be argumentative like Helen tbf.

I know, but if they talked more there would be a lot less tension.

[Mystic Mock]

I know, but if they talked more there would be a lot less tension.

But if there was no tension in the house then the show would become boring, every BB needs some Housemates to cause tension.

[Sophiee]

none of the girls are particularly 'likeable' this year, but I probably agree with this thread.

[Vanessa]

But if there was no tension in the house then the show would become boring, every BB needs some Housemates to cause tension.

True, but that House needs more fun. There have been enough arguments. :laugh:

[daniel-lewis-1985]

I like her.

She is being herself 100% and not many BB housemates are capable of that these days.

Helen to win, It would be the biggest turn around since Alex Reid winning CBB7.

[Jords]

:umm2:

Peoples memories are so short lol she hasn't verbal assaulted anyone for a couple of days and suddenly she's Mother Teresa

[Vanessa]

I would love to meet her and give her a hug. :hug:

[Mystic Mock]

True, but that House needs more fun. There have been enough arguments. :laugh:

I agree because every top notch BB has at least one argumentative Housemate, one bitchy Housemate, one Dairy Room Housemate, a few bores, and a couple of fun Housemates that don't pretend to be thick.

I thought last night highlights show was great. Everyone worked well together and we had some nice moments.

I don't think its very likely that none of the other girls spoke to Chris for the rest of the day, and i didn't mention Ashleigh

[Mystic Mock]

Chris and Mark's acting sequences hurt my opinion of last nights episode tbh, I loved Ashleigh and Helen in it all though.

I wasn't replying to you with that post.

Only the first one that you had quoted me to comment on.

Helen makes each episode worth watching. :worship:

Really? She remains dreadful :joker:

[joeysteele]

But if there was no tension in the house then the show would become boring, every BB needs some Housemates to cause tension.

:joker:It's boring me now with all the tension Mock, I am fed up of so much of it.
I would like to get and see some laughs with this series 'if' it is ever going to be possible.

If this keeps going the way it is and especially with Ashleigh's miserable whining night after night,I would likely need to be reaching for some anti depressants.
This is no longer entertainment it is really becoming a chore for me to sit through it most of the time now.:joker:

[Mystic Mock]

That's because the producers didn't cast a fun Housemate though Joey.

[Achilles]

I am considering putting a bet on Helen to win the show and have been for a week or so. Public perception can change easily over time. She has already been changing the minds of some, this is just the beginning of her journey still. At some point in the final few weeks, there might be an emotional "I was abused" type of story, that creates a vast wave of support after her redemption.
