Alex is a nice bubbly girl, but I feel no one in the house has taken the time to get to know her.

All that ever happens is people (especially Harry) laugh at her in her face.

Really? I actually think she is one of the most popular in there.

I'm not sure about that, she might not be best friends with a lot of them but there doesn't seem to be anyone who dislikes her and she gets on well with people like Tom, Louise and even Aaron and Harry (who I don't think was actually laughing in her face tbf)

Alex and Tom are close.

It's Mark who doesn't have a connection with anyone!

well maybe I'm wrong because it is true that she never gets nominated but she doesn't get much airtime because she has no other personalities in there to bounce off.

And is it the case that she's harmless, or that she's popular = no noms.


Agree that Mark is a loner, but would like him not to walk.

She seems to bounce off a lot of them but the arguments/tears/tantrums and love drama's from the others hog the limelight. She is often in the background of a drama pissing about with Tom or Harry but BB are too intent on the dull drama's that we all grew bored of 2 weeks ago.

Think I would have been worried, had anyone sat there with a straight face during the wonka factory conversation. I was howling! I puzzle over Alex , in truth. Is she just winding people up when she acts so....well, naive would be a kinder word than anything....or is she really that ....well.... naive ? Either way, I actually think she comes across as a little bit creepy. You have no choice but to either laugh, or feel a little freaked out by her sentiments. She makes me do a bit of both

Aaron pointed out she was winding Harry up, and Harry thought he was trying to wind her up. If that is truly her sense of humor to play really dumb, keep a straight face, and let people get exasperated with her then she has gone up about 10 points in my books.
Even the other day Tom told her to stop acting dumb, she might just use this as her type of humor. I will watch her more closely now.

Hmm...I'm not so sure. Still, I will sit quite happily on the fence until if, or when, I'm more enlightened . If she is playing a game ...she genuinely needs to pick up an Academy award for the best actress ever. I would never be able to keep such a magnificent poker face !

From what I saw yesterday she was winding Harry up nice and tight - Aaron certainly got the joke, which is why he high fived her. Alex is playing the game, and I'm quite enjoying the banter between those three.

I agree. They take the mick, but they seem to like her and vice versa.

Absolutely spot on as usual.

I get the feeling that there is a lot more of that going on bewteen Alex and the other housemates too, that we simply are not seeing. Look at last night when she and Tom (IIRC), giggling and laughing whilst they went upto Louise and Jaye, singing a love song to them etc......

I think BB are keeping her edits close to their chest: to bring her out into the limelight in later weeks: aka one of the hms they have picked as wanting in the final.

Oh....and on the convo with Aaron and Harry...... the speed in which she replied to Harry about, "Cats don't talk Harry, now you're being stupid" - shows that she's a lot sharper than she makes out.

Wouldn't surprise me if she is the new favourite soon. She is playing the game and well, but without the spite and malice some seem to. Kudos to her for playing a great game. Think Aaron especially knows she is, as he may be likeable but has his own game plan so recognises a fellow decent gameplayer. I don't know why, but I find the girl likeable as housemates go.

It was mentioned last night that she's closest to Louise..although they don't really show that...she seems ok with Aaron and Harry too. I'm pretty sure she's not dumb, it's just her pan faced humour.....but I like it........
