I like Raph because he isn't a reality TV expert and seems more down to earth and normal than some of the other housemates in the house. Also he seems pretty nice so far and I like that.

I need him to stay to see Joe's reaction. It will be priceless

Raph is a reality TV expert. He may never have been on reality TV himself but he has ridiculous knowledge of Big Brother. Not just UK Big Brother either.

This is one reason I think Joe picked him.

Yeah thats what I find so interesting about watching Raph because he's a BB fan, how he uses that and so far he's being very clever with it

[Peppermint]

Not even being biased, he's my favourite housemate now Arthur has gone. Everything he says (much like Charlotte) is the voice of reason and he speaks what I'm thinking most of the time and also handles every situation really well.

Me too. Like I've stated a few times now he hasn't done much to be universally loved so to speak. Being a diehard Big Brother fan to other die hards will be the biggest draw at this point in time.

If you've been a fan since the start then it's hard not to like a housemate who has also been a fan since the start.

I don't think it'll be long before other housemates use this as a reason to nominate him though. Especially if he remains as reserved as he has been.

He needs to win it now that Arthur is out.

Him and Charlotte are my favs too, I'm worried she might be in danger Friday though

Same, I think she could be in danger.

Me too.

I would have been confident if Kayleigh wasn't from EOTB and has like 63k followers. I wish people would judge Kayleigh on BB and not EOTB (I loved Kayleigh on EOTB but she's a tad awful on BB)

He's topping polls in DS and on Tellymix as well. So he's not just popular in here.

I agree with what you're saying, but unlike quite a few of the housemates, Raph's going on without any experience, and only knowledge. It kinda varies him and sets him apart from veterans such as Kayleigh

[King Gizzard]

If anything he'd probably be one of my favourites if he had never been on here/I'd never heard of him before

But then I tend to always Support the people who don't fit in with the populars

Oh yes of course and I agree on that point.

I did mention in another thread that I don't agree with people with vast amounts of onscreen/reality TV experience going on to Big Brother. I just want normal people with no experience of this sort of thing.

I'll change my statement accordingly - Raph is a Big Brother expert. 😊

This I agree with fully. I think the main reason people gravitate towards Raph is that he is a 'normal person'. Also, the fact he is, as you say, a Big Brother expert, does help and sets him apart from the others who do it for fame. Definitely makes him more interesting than the likes of Tom

Him being normal is the reason I love him so much. I don't want a reality TV star to win BB. They should be on cbb.

Oh God yeah. I can't believe I actually liked that jerk off when he first got voted by the public to be the People's Housemate!

Although my like for him only lasted pretty much up until he set foot in the house.

Him and Sukhvinder are the only ones I can't stand at all at the minute.

This is it in a nutshell.

The general viewers of this show are so easily manipulated it's embrarrassing. If it's not the pathetic producers interfering and setting things up to sway the moronic masses, it's any number of the desperate individuals who keep delivering the same tired old shyte they know has worked time and time again on the incredibly gullible viewers. Is it really too much to ask for a bit of originality? Especially from someone we keep hearing is "highly intelligent"

He's lovely and his friendship with Chanelle is a scream so he deserves the love.
