That's an interesting question Niamh. I think it all depends on what you mean by fickle, but I totally see the issue. In my opinion, being fickle is more when you see absolutely no fault in your favourite housemate whatsoever. That doesn't mean that you don't continue to support them, but to put it into perspective - I think extremely highly of Callum and want him to win without a shadow of a doubt. That being said, I did criticize him when he nominated Wolfy as I thought it was quite weak of him conforming to the group like that by nominating one of his closest friends in the house. Fickle on the other hand would be, for example saying "Callum knows what he's doing, Wolfy is horrible", just because Callum is your favourite.
Without pointing any direct fingers, I would say Dexter fans seem to be the most fickle, in regards to how I defined fickle above. It seems as though Dexter can do no wrong and people like Callum who aren't very close to Dexter, are horrible at all costs. That to me, is fickle. But then again, its funny because I get that Dexter is sort of the troll housemate so of course, people who support him are going to troll a little as well, if that makes sense.
Finally, I think changing views on housemates definitely doesn't show being fickle, but at the same time doesn't necessarily incinuate maturity and and more of an objective viewpoint either. If anything, I think it highlights the fact that you haven't warmed to any particular housemate enough to want to persistently support them. I was very much like that last series switching back and fourth from Deana to Luke A to Luke S to Conor to Caroline. That didn't necessarily mean I was more objective, but moreso that none of them were really likeable enough for me to really want to dedicate myself to.
