How many threads have there been about Ricky and Katie so far ? People can quote the rule book all they like but if BB throw everyone out who are well behaved then it will be a total snore fest. Bear is a total wind up merchant that's annoying everyone in there, perfect housemate, keep him in as long as possible I say. And keep that winging face ache Saira in too cause she's a royal pain in the arse.

Usually I would agree that we want to keep the ones who cause chaos in the house. But Bear is just unbearable. :hee: I find him, Lewis, Heavy D and Marnie just irritating and annoying. in the extreme. I don't find their brand of entertainment my bag at all.
The unlikable Saira is far more interesting, as is James, and I think Renee and Aubrey are going to be great too, in time.

..yeah I totally agree, Jet...Saira even with how intrusive and direct she can be and I get that she's not someone who it would be easy to warm to, is much more interesting as a housemate than any of the 'squad', who I just find atm have nothing but 'surface' to them and that has no level of sustained interest...it was interesting I thought what James said..'some people who are fragile but seem anything but on the outside'...or some such thing..?...(I felt that maybe he was referring to Saira who on the outside appears a 'strong independent lady' etc but I think that it's obvious that she's anything but and far from, which is what makes her so intriguing as well....hmmmm, Renee and Aubrey I'm not sure about yet..but there is some depth to them so I hope that they get good airtime and ughhhhh, if we're going to have a Lewis and Marnie showmance now....

Totally agree I don't like any of them

The title is stretching the forum :fist:

I don't know how anyone could watch what Marnie did to Saira and find it funny/enjoyable. It was so uncomfortable to watch and really unpleasant.

:wavey: Yes, my immediate thought also was that James was referring to Saira.
As for Aubrey, I watched the usa celeb Apprentice that she was part of and she was very, very competitive, very feisty and smart, and quite ruthless, so I'm surprised she seems so quiet and sweet, it can't last...
The older HM's are usually so much more interesting always, I could take a whole houseful rather than the vacuous shenanigans of the younger ones and I'm with you, not another showmance, the thing that makes me want to switch off altogether...

Bear isn't enjoyable to watch, he is unbearably stupid and tedious.

I thought that was a cynical ploy by James to undermine Saira, rather than in support of her.

But, back to the plot, I can't stand 'The Squad' and find their 'antics' shallow and callous.

I agree and BB are just as bad for allowing it to happen.

i don't have a problem with BB letting it run its course for now. In order for the viewers to see how bad that squad are, they have to be left to hang themselves as it were. Its a difficult balance to get right for sure, but in the long run it can only be to the benefit of everyone else for it to run its course.

I just want them to go after Renee next. Gagging for her to put a hit on them.

Lewis, Bear, Marnie and Heavy D are all nasty pieces of work. I can't stand patronising Saira either, but their behavior towards her is just plain nasty.

Lewis has officially left the squad. Him and Bear have fallen out big time :joker:

Looks like tonight's episode is just as bad, Bear seems to be even worse if the preview is anything to go bu

And I thought he was nasty. I actually think it's worse than that! He's evil! :eek:

This was the most memorable DR entry of the series so far )which doesn't say a lot for it actually :laugh:). I would normally think it is so silly to give away your game plan this early but there were moments where you could see the strings being pulled and how successful they are at getting a few of them to eat straight out of their hand. Heavy D to an extent is clearly a beta, but he is very unpredictable and will make snap commentary/judgement to appear more alpha than he actually is...

They've got some of the girls hook line and sinker. What a meek casting of females... even Renee just floats about saying whatever is on her mind with her fingers in her ears. It's more annoying though than problematic. She's playing to a character so it's harmless for now, but it's all talk and she is definitely playing the game.

Saira has the most backbone of the group, but she really buckled under the peer pressure from this particular group. Most of them are just sympathizers. She picked up on some problems early on and they went right for her because of it. The issue I have with it is these aren't normal people, these are "characters", so it should've been easy enough for her to blow them off. They're going to get underneath a lot of people's skin right off and it's showing...
