As I said in the post above Derek is very cleaver. He is cunning and will use deceit to get what he wants, but that should come as no surprise to anyone that knows how british politics works and especially the tory party.

He is a hunter and a leader and there are more ways to lead than from the front. That is Derek tactic. Hide behind the someone who thinks they are the leader and throw the public off the scent. These little whisperings keep him in control of the situation, as much as you can in the house. They allow him to get his point across without making a big noise. He is influencing the balance of power without appearing to be powerful at all.

Every one thinks his little whisperings are about nominations, but I think he learnt lesson of not directly talking about nominations when he was up against Roberto and Craig and one of his little talks was shown on the plasm screen. Now these whisperings are little things to allow him to gain the confidence of other housemates. So that they think he has information they need to survive in the house.

Derek is probably playing the cleverest game of all the housemates, he is using hundreds of years of political history to defeat the other housemates and play with the public.

And it's working! He is still there and looks set to be in the final four. And he deserves it to be in the final four.

Well Done Derek.
