Righto, been giving them a chance, but thoughts after watching last night's show...

[vesavius]

Kieran is a grade A dick.

Sarah talking about 'not being a fan of common people' and equating the working class to Kyle watching slobs on benefits. Disgusting tbh, and the kind of thinking that toxic shows like Benefits Street has encouraged. Be aware of any one who says "I hate racism, but...", because the next thing is always something nasty and racist. The girl is obnoxious. Well done to Harriet for handling it in a reasonable way.

Jade... Give it a rest. She is an average looking and has a average mind, but for some reason thinks she is the authority on everything. "The universe won't put you in a bad place unless you're a bad person"... WTF? Seriously? So she thinks having bad things happen to you is down to you not being 'pure hearted', ergo, you deserve it. Well done to Eileen for handling her bull****.

Aaron is way too fragile to be in that house. He will end up hitting someone. And, no, you are not 'literally' fuming. You are figuratively fuming. Good lord.

Jack refusing the car... This is where Jack has revealed himself to me tbh. He knows the game and is playing it. Fake reactions all through this.

Nick is growing as a favourite of mine every time he gets screen time, as is Chloe. I am quite liking Harriet as well right now.

to be fair to Jack though, after all the time and effort spent getting into bb, i'd turn the car down as well. you can't put a price on an experience. i know that sounds like i just got it out of a book of cliches but it's true. and i like Aaron, he seems sweet and caring. i can definitely see how people would dislike him but i don't at all

Harriet's grating on me with her 'i'm just a working class lass'. WE KNOW. YOU WORK IN A CAFE. WE KNOW

I would have refused the car as well. I don't particularly like cars, and would rather spend my money on something else. Does this make me fake / a game player?

It wasn't so much the refusal of the car that has alerted me to Jack, though I think that was clearly calculated because he has his eye on the prize, which is understandable, it was the fake reactions from him all around it.

The kid just isn't a good enough actor to play this game.

yeh i see what you mean. but it's early days

Yes it is early days, and the good thing for me about this series is that I have changed my mind about some of them already.

Nick, my first thought were "Oh no not another useless toff", but I have definitely warmed to him.
Chloe/Harriet on launch night I was wondering which one would morph into this
years Helen! Fortunately that doesnt seem to be happening as yet. They are on my keeper list at the moment.
Danny I liked thought he loooked as if he could be a fun father type figure,
but hes my least favourite at the moment, I find him quite bitchy, and Player where women are concerned.
Would like to see more of Eileen and the twins though

[vesavius]

Very true, and if Jack is looking this fake this early on I wouldn't put much faith in him going forward.

A classic case of early ripe, early rot.

It just means Top Gear isn't your bag. ;)
