The people that came out the worst are the people were obviously concerned about the money in the first place. Choosing to take the money and whatever their intentions were are irrelevant matters because they were all told the PUBLIC have chosen them to make this choice about MONEY THAT DIDN'T EXIST PREVIOUSLY. Therefore, the public had voted for them to win a prize, and they had every right to say yes or no. This whole 'pact' defense is complete crap. As that woman on BOTS pointed out, they didn't sit down and discuss the ins and outs. Chris kept bringing up that pacts never worked. No-one wanted to listen and probably just assumed they'd bother the winner for their whole 3k. Presumably, Chris and Ashleigh just agreed to the pact to shut them up, thinking that nothing would ever come of it and whoever won wouldn't split it with them anyway (and possibly others who didn't really care but didn't speak up).

Ash, Chris and Mark all took the money. This doesn't make them come off better or worse. But when it's revealed, Helen/Mark/Ash/Winston/Pav decide that Chris isn't allowed a reason and that he's not to be trusted an ounce, but they KNOW that Mark and Ash would be trusted and don't have to explain themselves further than 'I was gonna split it'. Also notice that Chris said he would split it but didn't state 'with everyone'. Why should he? And why should they? If it's their money that they've rightfully won, they can do whatever they like with it. If one of them gets the flak for saying yes, then they ALL should. Helen says no to taking the money because she trusts everyone that made the pact, yet she doesn't believe Chris would be trusted with the money. What that says to me is that she probably thinks Winston is going to win and knows he'll give her the money. I fully understand that she might not trust Chris but if she thought she could doubt one person in that house, as the winner, to share that money then she should've said yes.

The people who are getting worked up over possibly not receiving 3000 pounds are the people who come off the worst. The people with double standards come off the worst. The people who put words in other people's mouths and don't allow them to speak come off the worst.

Ashleigh didn't really say anything at all and doesn't really come off as anything. Chris tries to defend himself but they won't listen (and he doesn't just give them an 'I would split it' statement over and over like Mark, he tries to explain his thought process and what led him to say 'yes'). Christopher, sick of the hypocrisy, double standards and ridiculousness he has put up with for 9 weeks slays Helen and her gang, whilst fighting his own battle, sticking up for his friend and putting Helen in her place. Chris and Christopher, particularly Christopher, are definitely in the right.
