5th - Darnel 20/1
4th - Rex 8/1
3rd - Sara 5/1
2nd - Rachel 3/1
1st - Michael 4/5
2nd and 3rd may switch, but there's your winner.

This is clearly wrong, Sara will do better than 3rd and Rex will probably be runner up to Sara. Mikey will come 4th.:bigsmile:

I'd be happy with that order too.
Darnel was my #1 for weeks, but his attitude completely changed for the last 3 weeks or so.
I still hate Rex the most, but I have to accept others like him.
I dont hate Sara, but also don't like her.
Rach was consistently nice and fun so I wouldnt mind her winning.
Mikey is a legend. Full stop.

I hope not, I want Sara to win.
Thats so wrong, they are taking an educated guess... they know no more than we do!
I wish people would stop following odds like they are law, they are just reading forums and seeing what people are saying thats how they get their odds! Where they got Mikey 1st... I have no idea!

If they were following forums, Mikey wouldnt be favourite.
Bookies do this for a living. They would not be giving such good odds on Sara and Rachel if they thought they were as popular as forums like this suggest.
Look at the typical poster here. Teenage fanboys/fangirls. The majority of voters dont waste their lives on the internet.
Also, anyone voting purely based on watching the 9/10pm show is likely to vote Michael.

Paddy Power isn't an expert? Dude, open your eyes. It's this ignorance that makes him millions each year.

And the fact Mikey isn't just favourite with Paddy Power, he's favourite with every bookie.

On day one I had a £5 bet on Mikey to win BB at 5/1, so I have a vested interest in this:laugh:
However, so confidant I am that Mikey wont win, I'll go as far as to say I'll post a set of pics of me wearing nothing but that betting slip on my nose if he (Mikey wins)
I'll open a face book account on Friday night, and I never back down on a bet :whistle:

Rex is 8/1
Sara is 5/1
Mikey 4/5

Original post edited to include PPs odds.
I've not seen any evidence from any online polls suggesting he's going to win. Normally the series favourite tops at least 1 poll on a website throughout the series.
Winners odds are also incorrect, they got just about every show wrong last year.

They've been spot on this year, with the exception of the Lisa/Sara eviction, which to be fair, was something like 52:48.
Also, they could never have foresaw Darnel and Rex being complete morons to Sara that week, gaining her the always immense sympathy vote.

Odds to win are different completley though....
Samanda were at 1/6
Amy (BB:CH) was at similar odds to Mikey
Rhydian (X Factor) was a 1/5

They also got the first eviction wrong, Mario was favourite to go although in fairness he did overtake Steph during the week.
But odds to win are a lot different from odds to evict. Odds to win are usually way off, BB8 being a prime example. X Factor were also way off. Niki and Rhydian were tipped to go all the way throughout the whole of the series, Leon was out of the running as far as odds were concerned.

I can't go with the "Samanda" argument for 1 simple reason. They were ridiculously annoying to the "normal" person. They were another fanboy bandwagon.
With Michael, he's genuine and funny. There's nothing there to really hate about him so I'm still with the bookies.

also... he's not part of this fanboy/fangirl bandwagon, which does him a HUGE favour.

I do like Michael but there is nothing, other than to win betting odds, proven flawed in the past. He hasn't topped any polls at all and the eventual winners normally do at some point.

Everyone loved Samanda, it wasn't that their popularity was overestimated as such, is that Brian's was underestimated. Michael's not even that firm a favourite, he's the weakest favourite out of every series so far I think (except for Amy in BB:CH who took third place)

Big Brother Celebrity Hijack, it was on in January instead of CBB...Amy was the favourite to win at around the same odds as Michael (5/6) but she came third with around 22% of the vote...the eventual winner was the 7/2 fourth favourite to win

He's a very firm favourite. 4/5 with 3/1 being next is pretty firm.

...But The Sun’s own poll gives Mikey, 33, a miserable 16 per cent of the vote, beating only Darnell on 11 per cent.
Accurate
The other three are neck and neck - Aussie Sara has 26 per cent, Rachel 25 per cent and Rex has 22 per cent.
And a Big Brother insider praised the accuracy of The Sun’s online poll: “The Sun’s tally has been remarkably accurate.
“When Lisa and Sara were up for eviction, pundits tipped Lisa to stay in but Sun readers had them dead level. As it turned out, Sara’s victory was by the narrowest of margins.”
Heres what the sun says! Hmmm bookies always right? Itchy chin!
They also said about Samanda being hotly tipped last year and Brian winning! And even though more money on Mikey. Its anyones game!
If I was to believe anyone, I would believe the sun's polls. Just for the fact they have way more average viewers voting, they arent the die hard fans that stay up and watch live feed all the time, or check everything that happens. Just people that watch the highlights!
I hope the Sun's poll is correct, would love that result!
