Who was the main character in each series?

[Daniel.]

Who was the one person in each series, who gave the most to the series story wise? Not your favourite or anything but the person who contributed most

BB3 - Hard but I would say Alex, Jade, Kate (I thought Kate was boring but she was definitely a main character)
BB5 - Michelle - Had the bedsit, the romance, the sex, lots of rows - Nadia and Victor also
BB6 - Makosi - Pretty easily, Craig second
BB7 - Nikki - Had the tantrums but also a lot of stories, then Aisleyne and Grace
BB8 - Charley
BB9 - Rex
BB10 - Noirin
BB11 - No idea? Josie?
BB12 - Aaron
BB13 - Deana
BB14 - Dexter, then Gina and Hazel
BB15 - Helen Ashleigh
BB16 - Marc?
BB17 - Andy?
BB18 - Chanelle

[Daniel-X]

BB6: Makosi
BB10: Noirin
BB11: John James
BB12: Aaron
BB13: Deana

BB11 - John James
BB12 - Aaron
BB13 - Deana
BB14 - Dexter
BB15 - Helen
BB16 - Marc
BB17 - Hughie

[Daniel.]

CBB4 - Pete
CBB6 - Coolio

CBB10 - Julie
CBB11 - Heidi and Spencer
CBB12 - Lauren

CBB15 - Perez
CBB16 - Farrah
CBB17 - Tiffany
CBB18 - Bear
CBB19 - Kim, Nicola
CBB20 - Sarah

[Epic.]

I'll do CBB since I've seen all them and not BBs, also because civilian has already been answered above more or less.

CBB1: Jack I guess?
CBB2: Les I guess?
CBB3: Bez I guess?
CBB4: Pete followed closely by Chantelle
CBB5: Shilpa
CBB6: Coolio I guess?
CBB7: Alex I guess?
CBB8: Jedward lol
CBB9: Denise
CBB10: Julie
CBB11: Rylan
CBB12: Lauren/Charlotte
CBB13: Casey
CBB14: Gary
CBB15: Perez
CBB16: Austin/James
CBB17: Tiffany/Stephanie/Gemma
CBB18: Sink Grease
CBB19: Kim/Jedward/Nicola
CBB20: Sarah

[Epic.]

And no @people calling Chanelle the main of BB18. The last week proves it's Isabelle with how much main screentime she was getting. Chanelle didn't really have any arc either like all the other people listed do.

[Jason.]

I'd argue that either Gina/Hazel were the main character of BB14. All Dexter had was the love triangle and being the house villian who was nominated every other week. Gina had a part in almost every argument or rivalry, as well as her redemption arc, while Hazel was involved in the biggest controversy of the series.

[Daniel.]

Chanelle was easily the most prominent throughout

[Epic.]

Chanelle was easily the most prominent throughout

Being the most prominent doesn't necessarily have to mean you're the main person.

[Daniel.]

She was though? She was the main figurehead of the outsiders and took out Kayleigh as well as being involved in the Sue/Simone drama.

[Jason.]

CBB3: Bez I guess?


In a series where John and Jackie exist, absolutely not!

[Epic.]

In a series where John and Jackie exist, absolutely not!

The problem with this is that John still missed an entire week and Jackie was there three days. They're easily the most memorable of CBB3 but it'd be hard to differentiate that with them being main forefront characters

Got Mark and Les' names mixed up

[Jason.]

The problem with this is that John still missed an entire week and Jackie was there three days. They're easily the most memorable of CBB3 but it'd be hard to differentiate that with them being main forefront characters

That doesn't necessarily mean they weren't the main characters though. I think of main character as in the face of the series, and that's usually the biggest character.

Not to mention, Bez was hardly at the forefront after Jackie/John were gone. Brigitte was.

[Daniel.]

Where are people getting Austin from? I thought he was quite background until last week

[Oaker]

The main character of CBB16 was definitely Farrah lol. I'd even say Jenna was more of a main character than Austin :shrug:.

[Epic.]

Where are people getting Austin from? I thought he was quite background until last week

Austin was quite prevalent throughout 16. I struggled to pick someone since that series was full of prominent people (almost all of which were American). But nevertheless he was a pretty big part of his series and had big interactions with various housemates, such as James, Farrah, Jenna, and Janice, all of which were recurring. Only other people I think can be argued as main are James, Farrah, and Janice. The rest were supporting cast more or less, with Bobby, Jenna, and Stevi/Chloe peaking now and again.

[Babayaro.]

BB3 - Alex/Jade

BB5 - Michelle

BB6 - Makosi

BB7 - Nikki

BB8 - Charley/Brian

BB9 - Rex? (There wasn't one really)

BB10 - Noirin

BB11 - Josie/John James

BB12 - Aaron

BB13 - Deana

BB14 - Dexter

BB15 - Helen

BB16 - Marc

BB17 - Jayne/Hughie

BB18 - Chanelle

[Babayaro.]

Being the most prominent doesn't necessarily have to mean you're the main person.

It literally does :joker:

[Jordan.]

And no @people calling Chanelle the main of BB18. The last week proves it's Isabelle with how much main screentime she was getting. Chanelle didn't really have any arc either like all the other people listed do.

You're all wrong cause it was Ellie who got the most screentime and had the most storylines (tragically)

[Epic.]

You're all wrong cause it was Ellie who got the most screentime and had the most storylines (tragically)

Chanelle storylines:
-Outsider leader with Raph
-Relationship with Raph
-Mini feuds with Kayleigh, Charlotte, Lotan, Rebecca, and Andrew

Isabelle storylines:
-Lotan
-Self-consciousness growth
-Selflessness for entire week

Ellie storylines:
-Showmance with Sam
-Nomance with Lotan
-Being a paranoid dick to Isabelle

Winner here can be figured out easy

The Ones I watched.

1. Nasty Nick- He made the most headlines and was the first true villain of the show. Although looking at it now, he was playing the show as a game but his lies were so OTT. But him getting caught out is one of the greatest moments in BB History.

2. Brian- One of the few winners that actually was the main character of the show. Helen/Paul was too but I give the nod to Brian

3. Jade- Probably BB's biggest ever star and she did steal the show.

4. Jon- probably the stand out star and one of the few eccentric characters that year. He and Fed were badly missed when they went.

5. Nadia- The first winner that had the journey. Although I don't think she did much to deserve to win and was one of the most boring housemates in a fantastic house full of them. But C4 did build the show around her.

6. Makosi- Definitely the star of that year, and well deserving too.

7. Nikki- Wasn't a fan but the show was built around her, they even gave her own show during BB didn't they and they even threw her back in.

8. Chanelle and Ziggy- I surprised many think Charly was as those two had everything set around their fake romance, the show became so unbearable as the producers bent over backwards to please them.

9. didn't watch it.

10. Noirin- Another case like BB8 where producers bent over backwards to please her plus the guys in the house that weren't gay were besotted by her.

11 Josie - a bit like BB5, even though she didn't do anything the BB producers loved her and based the whole show around her and her fake romance.

BB9: Rex

How can Nadia be called boring? She was a great housemate.

[looper007]

How can Nadia be called boring? She was a great housemate.

Not to me she wasn't, sorry I call it like I saw it :laugh:. Many want to forget, the Nadia you got in UBB was the Nadia you saw in BB5 but with BB producers protecting her. She was quite bitchy and moany when she didn't get her fags, none of the truly great moments of that show don't have her in the front. She won that show cause she was the first person to have "the Journey" something that many Reality stars have relied on to win them shows.

I Thought Michelle or Victor were more deserving winners imo.

Nadia was amazing in UBB. In BB5 she was entertaining, argumentative, caring, fiery, everything a good housemate should be. She was far more entertaining than Victor.
