Face like a smacked arse when Jack took the money
 

........she was clearly seething that Jack took the dosh....delighted for her!

I thought Joel's was worse tbh.

Joels expression was about wanting to protect the winners money, him and Nick stepped away with no intention of pressing it
...Chloes expression was jealousy ....plus frustration with herself because her fake dramatics last week have now backed her into a corner where she couldn't take that money today....if she had been honest from the start like Jack and said she wanted money then she cud have....but boy she did want to...sit back and watch her go into full bitch mode again now...

Then she snapped and was snidey when Cristian talked about deserving it

spot on excactly why shes annoyed. She took that 5k and now really wanted this money

Absolutely. So much frustration! It was certainly a victory for Jack.

Haha yep.Chloe is pissed at herself now for taking the 5k.

Yep she certainly struggled to hold her temper but in the end played the game well and kept her cool just enough.

I feel sorry for Chloe as she so wants to be liked and as such has lost out on a dollop of cash.

If I were her I would not give a stuff about the fickle public who like or dislike housemates at the drop of a hat.

Out of the morons that are left I hope she gets to win the remaining cash.

bingo

...but when she took £5000, she was criticised and then when Jack took £23,000 it was all...oh, I'm pleased for you mate/so happy etc etc.. so why wouldn't she have 'a face'....

chloe thinks she already won, or she deservves to win over others..

..I don't think that she does over anyone else in there tbh..I've never particularly been a fan of Chloe but I'd be fine with her winning now just because she's been so criticised for being hypocritical by them all and yet they're all complete hypocrites...how come they were fine with Jack taking the £23,000 but not fine with Chloe taking £5000.../and yeah still really annoyed with them for choosing to evict Sam...

But there's a difference, Chloe contradicted herself by taking the money when she's been going on and on about how the winner deserves the money, it's not fair to take it away from them etc. She's a hypocrite. Jack has always had money on his mind and made it no secret that he'd take the money over being the winner, so it didn't exactly come as a surprise to anyone that he took it, whereas with Chloe it did.

..but wasn't he quite vocal in criticising her with the £5000...?..I mean either a housemate has that stance consistently of not agreeing with anyone taking the money at all or being fine with anyone that does...

I'm not so sure they were all fine with Jack taking the cash. I think there's a lot of lip-biting going on because with the final vote coming up they don't want to be seen as bad sports.

The reason Chloe got a hard time over taking the 5k has been covered to death on this forum; she set herself up as the moral guardian of the house when it came to building up the prize fund. If bb said that taking a ****e in the house would cost £100 out of the sacred prize fund, Chloe would've been telling everyone to hold it in. But when she had a direct choice of adding 5k to the prize fund or pocketing the cash herself, the halo slipped, and hms were quite rightly perplexed at this hypocrisy.

Jack has many unattractive qualities, but he's at least been consistent about wanting money.

Sure, that's because by taking the money it was going against everything she preached to the other housemates previously. Had she not made such a fuss over it (like Sam didn't and she never got any grief for it) then it would never have been such an issue.

I think I like Chloe. I don't think her taking money that was offered to her is hypocritical really, it would have been given to the prize fund if she didnt want it.. and that is different to taking money out of the prizefund because you want a pizza or the football scores. I think I would have acted in a very similar way to her last week if I were in her place... Choosing to steal is not the same as choosing to not contribute.

I think the housemates were complaining at Chloe because they had half a reason to do so because of how against money grabbing she was, they don't really have an argument to make with Jack.. They're just trying to pretend to be happy for him when obviously they're not... Apart from Chloe, credit where its due, I say, shes consistent.

To me, thats a positive quality in a person.. The rest are trying to make out that they're happy for Jack, their fake smiles and condescending "Don't worry about it"s turned me a bit off a few others.

...yeah I do see and understand all of that and how she's seen to be hypocritical but I think that the housemate's 'hypocritical' is very selective because they're all fairly much that but they gave her such a hard time ...




...also I think they're all fairly much showing that they would have also taken the money that Jack did so it was never about it being 'the winners money' then..?...£5000 meant as much to Chloe as £23,000 means to all of them so she took it...and ok, she had lectured etc and that makes her a hypocrite..?..well, she's in good company isn't she....


...anyways, Joel has always thought of it as the winner's money..(even though I don't agree because it's not that until there is a winner, until then it equally belongs to the housemate's left, surely..?..)..and yet he's fine with Jack taking the £23,000...

I think there is a lot of over analysis of housemates that are not intelligent.

Joel wants to be perceived as someone with high moral standards because he thinks that will win him the game. Chloe and Danny both think they have it won, so they want to see all money go to the winners pot, and if they are given the opportunity to take the money, its fine to take it because they will be the winners, so no harm done. By constant false polls and incorrect feedback, Jack thinks he no longer has a chance of winning, so he will take cash at every turn its offered. Because Danny is Cristians hero, he no longer thinks he can win so will grab money at any opportunity. Nick, coming from a wealthy family, couldn't care less about the money.

This is a fair summation, they have to appear to be happy for Jack as they as so close to the final and also because of him turning down the car 4 days in

..I don't actually think that Chloe does think she could win/hence the taking of the £5000 and at least that would make some difference to her...I do think though that she thinks Danny will win/they possibly all do....

No he wasn't he said he was pleased for her just that he was surprised she took the money after going on about the money all week. (Pretty much what everyone is saying). She shouted him down and played victim like she always does.

..thanks Jaxie, I thought that Jack had been quite vocal in his disapproval with her but obviously my bad..(I have just been dipping in and out and keep falling asleep..ooooops..)...anyways, if I'm really honest ..(and here's me being a hypocrite here because I always think that the prize fund, the winner thinks that they're getting shouldn't ever be messed with..)....I don't care so much about their characters now because none have really stood out for me all of the way through so I've never had a favourite....but I would like to ideally see them all get a share of it and it not be so much for just one person this one time because BB have fairly much pushed them all to one side in favour of the 'exes' and it was meant to be 'their moment' but just hasn't be so I think they all deserve something for that..../if that makes sense...

Nobody really can have a go at jack after they justified chloe taking the money as 'life changing,' surely jack deserves his life changed too?...
The concept of BB was always winner takes all and it is annoying when this is messed with, especially when people like conor walk out with it :/

She wasn't happy and I'm glad Cristian called her up on it. He's starting to see her unpleasant side. None of them twats were happy for Jack, except Cristian and maybe Nick.

They were all tipped off last night regarding how the public felt about Chloe taking the 5k and that feedback came back in Chloe's favour. If it had come back against Chloe, I very much doubt that Jack or Christian would of hit the button.

Good point, if they have the public backing that there's no backlash then it may have swayed them more.
Christian trying to justify needing the money more than chloe though :/

He only wanted it to pay off his student loan.

Credit where its due, no maybe here, Nick wss genuinely happy for Christian...i think he's a nice person and would have been happy for any of them...but even if people don't agree that he's a nice guy he still could care less about the money so he's not in competition for it with any of them

I think Christian is more and more proving that he's also a nice guy....he's the only housemate this year that i have changed my opinion of as the show has moved forward...the others, good or bad are the same at the end as they were at the start for me....Jack saved him from a very likely eviction in week 1 by throwing him life line....Christian will surely have a loyalty to him for that..

Even Dan the Money Man, with all his faults, would respect that Jack has said from day one he's in it for the money...i know why Jack is so popular, there are many reasons, personally he irritates me but i def respect his honesty over the cash and i think Danny does too..Danny probably wished he'd played it more honestly from the start too...if he resents Jack for anything i think it would be more likely for that reason

Joel also does not resent Jack having the money, he doesn't agree with it being taken from the winnings but he would blame BB for that rather than who ever pressed the button....if the cash had been a random thing in addition to the winnings then Joel would have been very competitive and would have shook hands with who ever beat him...no question

Chloe displayed pure jealousy and resentment...it's so ugly to observe...she wanted it so badly but she'd backed herself into a corner by taking the moral high ground over the previous cash bomb...the look of frustration on her face was priceless as that realisation dawned on her.....she is such an unpleasant individual

:thumbs: Good post and i agree

Christian didn't have the public backing, he was told the public thought he was playing for air time....Chloe had the public backing when they had her wrongly believe that the public don't think she was a hypocrite by taking the 5 grand

If the guy has a massive student loan because he's trying to better himself then that debt is a big deal to him just like it is to anyone else....i found it sad that he felt he had to justify himself when he doesn't....Chloe has such a sense of entitlement when she plays the Little Miss Work House routine that she would have some people believe that she is in some way more deserving of the money than the others... you are obviously one of those people

She has spent so much time making it clear she deserves it more than anyone else....right from the first time she was nominated and went around the group explaining how each one of them weren't as entitled to it as herself...Helen and Marc were right that day and Brian was wrong...its all so clear looking back now and knowing what we know....

She has made the boys feel they have to justify themselves and they don't

The only time Jack actually said anything to her was in the kitchen after it blew up with Danny he tried to explain. Why Danny was surprised and said he was too but Chloe shouted him down. That was all I saw him say to her.

To explain the Chloe thing its like someone said they hate blue very often and very argumentatively and state they would never wear blue. Then they go to a party in a blue dress. I'm pretty sure everyone who heard the tirades about blue would say 'wtf?' It's not so much about taking the money its about all the things said about not touching the money and how selfish it would be.

He was only cross that he didnt get it.

Excellent post.
She is a very selfish mardy girl.

Looks like chloe is money mad:

If I'd been Christian I would of been a bit pissed that I was slow on the button. That was a serious amount of money for both Jack and Christian. I really hoped that Jack was going to share it with him, in my eyes that would make Jack a deserving winner.

As for Chloe, yes, she's annoyed that she only got away with 5k but I don't think she's annoyed with Jack; just with herself.

He took it very well and was happy for Jack. Loved that he wasn't pissed off like most of the others. He owes Jack a lot and he will always be grateful.

Jack and Cristian should be applauded for being the only two with any sense of reality and pressing the button.

The question should be what is the motives of the others that they'd turn their heads to 23k?
