Goldy, Ali is far from favourite to win with the bookies. They got one right tonight, but Ali winning isn't something they currently anticipate

Actually it is :laugh:

They're pushing for an Ali win now that Lily has gone , it's so obvious .

Thanks, that counts, Ben :love:

COME ON ALI!!!!!

She is, just checked, no ff way

Let’s go Ali!

I mean, i'll take her winning, £200 win etc, fine with that. Knew the morons would fall for her sh!t. Excellent price back then @ 10/1

Lily fans will all vote Ali to win , it was a certain to happen. Only Emma can beat her ,but I think Ali has it in the bag :notimpressed: .

All bookies have currently suspend (oddschecker means nothing atm)

I can still picture Ali & Emma final 2

It's understandable because she's survived so many assassination attempts by this point.. it's like she's an anointed one by God himself. So of course people must vote for her now...

Jokes aside, in all seriousness she is really quite popular. This is a great cast of mostly normal people who get their points across well, but Ali represents the ideal personality for the kind of person who would get eaten alive in most social situations if they tried to be anywhere close to the way they see Ali being. Forgetting her diagnosis, short of when she is being rude (and even then sometimes), they perceive her as an underdog who hones and wields her own emotions against others and forces them to listen/pay attention to her... that is a fantasy that appeals to many, for right and wrong reasons... especially younger demographics who only know the social media ladder and are surrounded by examples of people who somehow manage to "be themselves (they're not...) and enjoy a great deal of social acceptance ... and there's a ton of those kind of people on Tiktok, Reddit, etc. X is basically made up of that demographic... so, a very large swath of viewers, I think.

My guess I think goes like this.

1st Place - Marcello
2nd Place - Ali
3rd Place - Emma
4th Place - Nathan
5th Place - Hanah
6th Place - Rosie
7th Place - Sarah
8th Place - Segun
9th Place - Thomas

I'm torn on the top 2, and Sarah & Rosie.

But I'm happy with the rest.

I think that the Bookies are overestimating Ali's popularity, Marcello has more people to inherit votes from when they leave, which I think will give him the edge to win.

But I'm not 100% confident because Ali & Lily both have huge fanbases.

I think the top three are a given. The order I’m not sure on though.

I’d swap Rosie and Sarah.

My guess is

1st Ali
2nd Emma
3rd Nathan
4th Marcello
5th Baked potato
6th Hanah
7th Sarah
8th Segun
9th Thomas

I really was torn on Rosie and Sarah.

Normally there is a shock eviction or shock rise to the top that is unexpected.

I don't think Marcello can beat Ali. I see Emma having more fans than him. I also wouldn't rule out a rise from someone like Hanah.

wut?

To stop Ali I think it needs to be either an Emma or Hanah vote.

Hanah won't get the general public on side.

It either has to be Emma or Marcello, I'm fine with either pick.

I'm being sarcastic,as I can't see anyone else winning but Ali now.

All Lily's fans will rally around and support Ali immensely now. Can't see anyone beating her in the final... except maybe Emma.

oh thank god lol, you can never tell via text :joker:

But you are right about Lily's fans and Ali.

I think Marcello is too controversial. Although in theory so is Emma but she hasn't got the same about of stick as he has.

If the anti-Ali camp want to go for Emma because they believe that she has the best shot at stopping her, then I'm onboard.

I have nothing against voting for Emma on finale night.

Voting closes at midday on Sunday...
