I then just really liked the guy and felt he was going to be a great housemate,he was, he would have been the most worthy of being a BB winner but I do think in the end he will be remembered far longer than anyone in from the start,middle or who is left at the end and whoever is the eventual winner.
From that 3rd day BEN was my favourite and it never changed,I don't really have a favourite now,I don't need one we are still seeing BEN often on the TV anyway,he is getting more time on TV now than he got in BB highlights programmes except when the vile JJames argued with him.

Yes, thankfully we will still get to see a lot more of Ben. When I first saw him on his VT before he went in I wasn't too impressed immediately. However, like you, I was attracted to his character and personality almost instantly, and he never disappointed me. Josie, on the other hand, was a big mistake and I very quickly went off her, especially when she got so friendly with that snake, Govan.

Now that Ben has left the house, I am now only still watching because of Sam, and I also quite like Jo and Andrew (when he's not hanging around Josie's backside). Sadly I think Jo and Sam will be gone before the final, and to be honest I don't care who wins so long as it's not JJ&J or Dave.

I usually wait to pick a favourite but Ben won me over from the word go with his manners and ability to hold conversations that were worth listening to. I liked Sunshine as she was different and I felt for her being a vegan stuck in there. I like Mario but now can't stand his tantrums and whining. Govan I thought could be good but I went off him pretty fast. Andrew I loved but since he has started hanging around with Josie I have gone off him a bit. Shabby I found funny at times but mainly didn't like her. Sam I love and just hope he can win and Jo is ok. Dave I find amusing as a housemate. JJames and Josie I can't stand and the others are really not doing much for me at all.

You are right Angus58,BEN never disappointed those who came to like him and support him, he never flew into silly vile tempered rants,he kept to his points of view,was dignified even in the most hositle of attacks from JJames and his so called friends too.

The real reason he didn't disappoint was because he is a solid guy,who can wipe the floor with opposition by his defence of what he's said made more calmly and in a more articulate way than the one attacking him.
That's what made JJames so angry,ranting like a madman. I doubt Jjames even understood most of the terms and words BEN said to him anyway.

Ben is definately one of the very best ever housemates and in my view the best anyway.

Launch night my faves were Mario, Josie and Ciaomhe.

I still like Josie but she's not my winner atm....cant stand Mario or Ciaomhe.

I also wanted to skin Dave and Shabby as they went into the house, but now I want Dave to win and was just starting to have some time for Shabby when she walked.
