I mean let’s face it, would you find any time spent with someone who whines as much as Cameron interesting? His coming out was touching, but everything since had just been a moan fest which I’d have walked away from.
Zoe has to be the most 2 faced person in there, yet she seems to get away with it!
Just don’t get how Sian, Brooke, Kennerley, when she was in, weren’t seen as entertaining other than the fact the cameras never showed them!

You are right about the editing. It must be so difficult to condense a day of filming so many different people into 45 minutes. However, it's almost as if it's a soap, in that they do seem to choose their storylines and main characters and focus on them, leaving the others to become extras, who only become relevant in terms of their interactions with the main players.
I guess they have to do this to some degree and they have to edit out anything or anyone who seems less interesting or entertaining. That probably means that anyone who is pretty normal and nice becomes a victim of editing. I am always surprised by what we see in evictee's highlights which was not shown in the main show, and which presents a completely different impression of them.
Kenaley seemed like a lovely person, but editing meant we saw so little of her that we were unable to get to know her, and hence she did not gain the support she might have.
