The argument that 'rewarding' (I use that term loosely) someone with a win on Big Brother has any kind of cultural significance is just silly, it's trash television that is increasingly irrelevant and such results have no reflection on people's own values
I don't watch the show in search of a new best friend I can relate to or to watch nice people having a chat, I'd go to the pub with friends if I wanted that

No but it is worrying that someone sees a contestant like Helen and votes for her to win, despite her clearly being a terrible person with insecurities flooding out of her and bullying anyone she can.
