The betting is now that Grace will beat Sezer's percentage.

According to my research, i.e asking a female co-worker who is not following Big Brother, it is a common and normal trait amongst young femails to talk about each other in a negative way behind each other's backs.

It is likely therefore that members on this and other Big Brother forums may engage in this activity without realise they are doing it. If Grace was doing this deliberately to influence nominations in the way that Nicholas did in BB1, she would have connected that in the diary room on Friday.

She did not.

She did not realise she was "back stabbing" as some put it.

I put it to you that my client is being villified for something that is, although unpleasant, a normal activity everyone engages in from time to time. I put it to you that the reason she is hated is that people are seeing in her something that they dare not admit to themselves, and she is a constant reminder of that character flaw, no wonder the words speck, eye and plank comes to mind.

Mi Lord, I ask the court to look at the record of how this activity was prevelant in all Big Brothers, indeed in Big Brother 3, they did a feature on this early on in the psyche report.

My Client has not done anything more than what many people of her demographic do on the outside word.

There is no evidence my client has breached any rules about influencing nominations, unlike other housemates

I put it to the court that my client has no case to answer.
