I not surprised that Jason attacked the producers of Big Brother 5. He was clearly unhappy on the final night when he when he was greeted with boo’s from the audience and the press coverage.

But what did he expect after the fight night he took to his bed and sitting around with Victor and looking depressed. By the final week he found himself with no real friends in the house and although the other housemates tried to include him he still preferred to be on his own. They portrayed him as grumpy, aggressive and boring because that was how he was most of the time. Saying he was a bit down is a bit of an underestimate, at one point I though he should have seen a Doctor about his depression.

I think he under estimated the intelligence of the TV audience that we actually thought that Michelle and Stuart had sex in the house. It was clear from anyone watching that they hadn’t had full-blown sex although sexual acts had taken place. To say that Michelle and Stuart did this was to boast they popularity is clearly sour grapes, it was the production company that claimed the first Big Brother bonk took place to increase the ratings.

None of us will ever know the truth behind fight night, however it is clear that a large number of the housemates were involved and to blame for what happened. What seemed unfair about that night was that Emma left the house and the others involved stayed who did things that were equally bad. You can’t single out Nadia without mentioning Victors role in the fight night, if Nadia should have been evicted then Victor should have gone to. I fear the mud slinging over fight night will continue to for a while now after this article.

The editing issue is interesting and deserves a thread of it’s own. Clearly Big Brother can edit the highlights show in anyway they see fit for any reason. The live feed is a different matter it is only edited for content. However, you must remember we are on shown what they want us to see on the live feed, there are at least 42 cameras in house and we only get to watch one.

As for the booing and Divina, Divina clearly tried to encourage the audience to cheer and not boo, and given how he handled the interview it is no wonder she wanted him out the way. One thing I don’t think Jason has understood about the show yet is he only came second because a large number of people voted for him who didn’t want Nadia to win and not because they wanted him to win.
