He's not playing the game he's trying to detach himself from it but Julie is so blatantly being an absolute **** (excuse my French) he feels he has to make it known he has noticed it.

He would be my winner if he called her out on it face to face. He hasn't. He's a coward.

Julian is still my winner.

As for Julian...Well that's something we agree on! :hugesmile:

That was his move to get his biggest competition (Julie) in the firing line. And he's so BORING.

As for Julie - she can be a bitch, but she is entertaining and has been the same from Day One. I agree with the guy on BOTS who said Julie is not playing a game and that she just lives from moment to moment. I have thought that all along. A lot of elderly women (I know quite a few!) have a way of cutting through the bull**** - they want to be nice to people but they've experienced a lot and they aren't up for 'games'. She's funny, strong and totally unique.
She doesn't whine or cry or try to get anyone's sympathy. She takes it on the chin and carries on being her usual feisty self. You have to admire her for that.

And Julian - he's the WINNER. No explanation required. :hugesmile:

I agree with your points about Coleen, the boys and Julie herself, but I don't think Martin's been a snake. I think he's done pretty much the same as Julie throughout the series - just taken each "argument" as an event that doesn't matter in the long term and isn't bothered with trying to form packs (see Team H.A.M.) or play games. I think he's a genuinely nice guy surrounded by idiots in an extreme environment.

Coleen needs to get a grip and confront Julie rather than play the victim card, and I hope to god she doesn't win because of it because it'd be a tired routine. On the other hand she has funny moments and is a nice person, so I'd be happy for her to do well.

But I just think people on here need to find themselves a hate figure for every series and it's quite boring and arbitrary. They feed their bile and hatred (and it really is sickening hatred, because I'm sick to the teeth of comments about her age and appearance) with the flimsiest of excuses (she... says things behind other people's backs? OH WELL HALT ALL HUMANITY'S PROGRESS)

It's boring, it's boring, shut up, she's just a person, grow up.

-walks off, rambling on-

Just watched the lastest show. Had enough of Martin now, his boring gameplan and obsession with Julie.:sleep: It's mind numbingly boring enough listening to whiny Coleen go on about it.:bored: If Julie goes, I now 100% want Julian to win this.:)

The hypocrisy of these people continue - Martin nominated Julie because she talked to Harvey about noms. He said it was cheating and she deserved to go for that. Yet Mike was caught cheating during face to face noms and he didn't say a word about it or nominate him.
Same with the boys - their nominations for Julie was because they said she was trying to influence noms, yet they did the same thing to get the girls out - and they too didn't even blink or care when Mike was caught cheating to avoid being put up.

I think it's disgusting the way they are turning on Julie en masse - and talking about her behind her back - the very thing they accuse Julie of doing. Coleen just loves it all and never stops putting her oar in but has never once had the guts to say anything to Julie's face - in the guise of 'I just couldn't upset her'. She's an out and out coward who has got into the final on Julie's coat tails. Without Julie, what storyline would she have brought to the show? ZILCH.

They are all a bunch of hypocrites.

When he heard the crowd chanting 'get Julie out' he knew it was safe to nom her.

The boys nommed Julie because Martin told them to. Read as much into their reasons as you like but they are incredibly thick and will follow the leader.

You keep ignoring the fact that everyone has seen Julie going round the house playing one person off against the next, telling everyone she loves them then stabbing them in the back, that's the REAL reason she's up.

If you're still on the weak nomination kick take a look at Julie's nom for The Situation. She kissed him on the way in, then stabbed him in the back and kissed him on the way out. 'He's sad, he's missing Danica' LOL. He's had more fun than at any other time in the house since that stupid tart got evicted. He's even getting on with Lorenzo.

If they held an impromptu Weak Nomination Competition Julie would win it hands down. She loves him though, right?

A lot can be learned about the HM's by their nominations and the reasons they give - and the reasons given by Martin, Coleen, Prince and the boys show their total hypocrisy and cowardice.
Not one of them has had the guts to talk to Julie about how they felt. They let her carry on doing what they didn't like and talked about her behind her back.

If one or more of them had talked to her about her behaviour she might have thought about it and took it on board - she seems like that sort of person. But they let her think they all still adored her, continuing to be pleasant to her face or like the boys, calling her 'Nan'. Julie may well have thought they enjoyed her banter and little bitchy remarks. Which is probably why she was shocked to be up for nomination.

They are all worse than she is when it comes to being two faced and game playing!

PS MARTIN would win the weakest competition nomination - especially the face to face ones, which showed just how much of a coward he is.

Can you please point out where Julie explained to Colleen why she has such a big problem with her? I must have missed it that particular face to face confrontation. Julie has not been honest with anyone about her nominations she has confronted nobody face to face.

She wanted Lorenzo out then went grovelling to him when she was caught in the act trying to influence noms. She went round EVERYONE before noms trying to get them to like her, it didn't work. She does exactly what you say all the others do.

Just accept it, people will nominate who they like. They are not under any obligation to confront people they nominate or explain anything to them at all. Getting outed as a two-faced bitch will get you up for eviction pronto, it doesn't matter a **** what the nomination reasons are.

Maybe you missed the fact that Coleen said she WAS going to confront her and that she talks obsessively about her - and nominated her. It is Coleen who has the big problem with Julie - and talks to everyone but Julie about it - not the other way around!
Julie had not confronted anybody because she hadn't a big enough problem with anybody.

...and when a group turn on a HM en masse and nominate them for something the person hasn't even been aware they were all bothered about - that is horrible and uncomfortable viewing.
