Default In defence of showmances/romances

Why people find it so difficult to accept that young, attractive people will end up fancying each other on a show like this is beyond me. It could be people fancying each other, or one person fancying someone without it being reciprocated. Either way, every year, without fail, something like this has happened. Let me list examples...

BB1: Melanie and Andrew. Melanie and Tom
BB2: Helen and Paul.
BB3: Lee and Adele. Spencer and Kate. Adele and Alex. Lee and Sophie. PJ and Jade (How about that!). Ths was the highest rated series of all time!
BB4: Scott and Nush (and Tickle was rather fond of her as well)
BB5: Michelle and Stuart
BB6: Saskia and Maxwell. Makosi and Anthony. Craig and Anthony (Surely the most fascinating ever)
BB7: Imogen and Sezer. Mikey and Grace. Pete and just about everybody else. And don't say him and Nikki weren't attracted to each other. Pete sunk into a depression after Nikki was evicted.
BB8: Chanelle and Ziggy.
BB9: Dale and Jen. Rex and his girlfriend
BB10: Sophie and Kris. Noirin and Sree/Marcus/Siavash/Tom/Isaac (rather amusingly)
BB11: John James and Josie. Keeva and Shabby. Even Mario and Ben
BB12: Aaron and Faye. Louise and Jay
BB13: Ashleigh and Chris
BB14: Hazel and Daley (So much sexual tension it almost turned violent)
BB15: Steven and Kimberly. Helen and Ash. Marc and Christopher
BB16: Sarah and Danny. Marc and Sam.

Then we have the most popular Celebrity series on Channel 5 with Lee and Casey and Lee and Jasmine. And also the most popular celebrity series on Channel 4 with Preston and Chantelle

Celebrity Hijack had Emilia and Jeremy often being very flirtacious, and I recall a lot of people on the forums liking those two.

The fact is Big Brother is a show about human relations. You can't not show what is going on between people in the house and if an intense relationship is forming between a male and female (or two males or two women) they simply must draw attention to that, otherwise you're not getting an accurate reflection of events. I don't think the show should revolve around them, but they are and always have been a part of Big Brother. And actually, the most successful series (the third) featured more of them than any other series. Ultimately, it's the characters involved in these relationships that determine whether or not they are interesting or amusing.
