James, I agree that in real life I actively dislike very few people indeed. If I found myself in that unfortunate position, I would try to sort things out in an amicable fashion, or make sure I didn't need to be in their company.

I am quite a softie really!

My feelings about Elizabeth are based on her air of continued superiority.

I remember the derogatory discussions of 'wafer-thin' subject matter which she had with Dean, the 'I could feel the shutters coming down and the plug coming out of the socket' statement and many others. 'I DO NOT AGREE!!' when someone said they liked Anna Kournikova. As if it mattered if she agreed!

The feeble 'I was drunk and can't remember' excuse when Paul tackled her on BBLB, despite her smug smile when she saw Helen's face crumple. Rubbish, she stuck the knife in and enjoyed it. At least Brian admitted he didn't like Paul.

She may have been a 'stabilising influence', but she and Dean imposed a quiet and stultefying dictatorship over the housemates.
She set herself up as the moral voice of the house. Yet, it was Big Brother - not a church outing to the Lake District!

All intellectual snobbery of the worst kind.

I am absolutely positive I could converse very effectively with her in person, and I would welcome the opportunity to do so. She would certainly not find me quite as easy, trusting or sycophantic as her housemates were last year. It would however be entirely civil.

Oh, just to have that chance!

We did have the advantage of seeing her from all angles which her housemates did not. Hence the 2% vote.

I know it was only a game show, but she was an absolute nightmare.

I say again, AAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGHHHHH.

Now back to work!
