i don't think what we see on the show is too far away from reality. Sarah may be pampered a bit more by the producers, but so what. Hopkins had her own bedroom with net access, writing her column, Perez had his own flat to stop him leaving. Previous series have had a quiet room where the celebs can go for a bit of me time.

If someone is going to win, they have to be popular with the public, that fact can't be escaped from, and the public are not as gullible as many would believe, particularly when they are parting with their own cash to vote.
