I also agree with Wildchild.
Paul was definately not boring and did lots more than "brag about him and his mates going on holiday". Also to say that he isn't very bright is actually quite funny considering he got a really good degree and currently has an excellent job.
I never for one moment thought that Paul was leading Helen on and was going to break her heart. You could tell from the way they looked at each other how strong both of their feelings were while in the house, and I'm not in the least surprised that they are still together and are obviously very much in love.
As we have discussed many times before, both on here and TalkBB, much of Paul's earlier behaviour in the house was due to his insecurities. Most of the flirtation with Penny in the first couple of weeks were instigated by her. Yes, he played along with it, but it was fairly obvious towards the end that he was quite embarrassed by it all. As for Paul nominating Helen in the first week, Helen has admitted herself that she wasn't happy in the house during that first fortnight and that she didn't begin to relax and let her real personality come out until after she survived the first nomination. I'm a huge fan of both Helen and Paul, but I didn't like her much in initially either and actually voted for her eviction against Penny. She was very moody and grumpy during this period and didn't becomoe the Helen we began to love until later in the house. I'm so glad she didn't go, what a different BB it would have turned out to be if Penny had stayed instead.
I think we'll have to agree to disagree Girlie. :grin: As Mark says everyone is entitled to their own opinion and I respect yours. Helen became my favourite housemate, but I also always liked Paul. I think they make a lovely couple and are very well suited.
