Lisa wasn't trying to bully Freddie into submission - she was upset and understandably angry that he was picking her out as rallying people against him. He brought it up by insisting that she didn't like him, and he was the one who wouldn't listen to HER so that she got increasingly angry. She was right - he WAS being paranoid - and sly.

Karly, Kris and Charlie were far more horrid to him than Lisa ever was - yet he picked on her. To say that Lisa was the puppetmaster in all their actions is ridiculous. Do you really believe that Karly or Kris were soft malleable little sheep? Get real. Or Charlie either for that matter. The assumption that Lisa was the instigator of her group of friends actions against Freddie is a MYTH. She blew up at the unfairness of his accusations and didn't let him walk all over her - and ever since that he has had the knives out for her - and planted the seeds that she is a puppet master in other HM's minds.

You all seem to forget that nearly EVERY HM was nominating Freddie and couldn't stand him back then - but once they found out he was popular with the public by surviving so many evictions they sucked up to him. Not Lisa though - she has been true to herself and honest all along the line.

And in case it has slipped by you - Freddie talks behind people's backs more than Lisa ever does - and he's sly and manipulative to boot.
His precious Bea pulls peoples strings in a way that Lisa would never even aspire to - yet Freddie thinks the sun shines out of the snobby cows arse.
I've got Freddie's measure, and it ain't pretty.

Spare me the 'poor Freddie' routine. He's past his sell - by - date in my book.

Good post. A shame it will fall on so many death ears though because you are right on absolutely everything you say.
