IMO this series (and Ultimate BB) proves/proved that you can change publics opinion despite acting the same more or less. It just depends on WHO you argue with/are friends with,

Look at Ultimate BB first. Nadia acted the same way on that than she did on BB5. On BB5 she won, on UBB she was booed.

This series same can be said with the likes of Speidi, Austin and James Jordan.

Speidi was in a very quiet series and only them vs Rylan and everyone was the storyline. Rylan was loved, so they looked bad.

Austin had James H last time to mask the fact he was being nasty... he made Chloe cry and had rows with Janice and Farrah. Chloe wasn;t very liked, so people brushed over it. Farrah was hated and he was applauded. It was only his treatment of Janice that drew criticism.... but James Hill was there to pull him away from the "dark side". This time he is acting the same with Stacey as he did with Farrah but it's backfired because Stacey isn't disliked out here.

And James Jordan had rows with Audley and Gary who were the Top 2 and very popular. People said JJ was awful to Gary. This time, he hasn't exactly changed, but his reaction to Austin in the BR was almost identical to his reaction to Frenchy. But it's helped him.
