Talking sam is giving half the money away!

Strange how no one on here has mentioned or even acknowledged this remarkably kind magnanimous gesture

he is only 22/23 he is not wealthy at all, he has no real career path as such, yet after winning £100,000 he gives away £25,000 to deaf charities and £25,000 to his family


what a class gesture and a wonderful thing to do. proves yet again what a genuine kind compassionate person sam is. Bravo

Good guys do come first!

So she didn't buy him a new artificial leg, I honestly didn't think she would.

No surprises there, Josie was awful. So disappointed when she won. A terrible end to a terrible series.

Absolutely, I perfectly understand the scepticism, just a predictable response tis all.

Yes, I think Josie is my least liked winner ever. Its wrong, but I cant help blaming her for the quad eviction decision. That final had the potential to be fantastic and unpredictable. But they chose to hand it to her on a plate instead

I still don't think that the quad would have happened if she didn't have the pass. I really don't/ I don't know what they stood to gain by making sure she won, but it really did seem they were desperate for it.

I'll believe it when I see it. Didn't awful Rachel Rice say she was giving the prize money to charity and she didn't?

Not sure if Rachel gave it or not, but from what I remember, Rachel was quite forced into saying she would by Davina who pretty much said in her winners interview 'you are an awful winner, you dont deserve the money, who are you giving it to'

I think they just didn't care by that point. In a couple of weeks time they would be literally holding a funeral for Big Brother so they could do whatever they wanted.

If they were going to get rid of all the entertaining housemates and give us a rubbish winner, I wish they chose Andrew instead. That would've been hilarious.

Probably guilt because he knows that him winning was an insult to the viewers - leaving aside his deafness, to me he was an unintelligent yob in every sense. If he gave all of it away, it would not make it less ridiculous that someone like him could win.

The money he is giving to 'The Dog n Bone' is not a charity for deaf dogs, it's his local boozer.

Dexter was going to give some to Charity and also to the runner up and 3rd place (as long as it wasn't Gina who has enough already or Sam).
