The irony that she handed Richard the win on a plate

she is too stupid to even realise

I said all that on launch night and people were dismissing my view of her because it was so early in the show

To be clear, outside of the usual detractor or two, saying one has a different view is not the same as dismissing another person's POV.

For myself, I don't go with my negative gut reactions right away because I want my bias to at least be more informed than "I hate that person's voice" or "I wish they would dress and act a less bit silly".

That’s fair

I honed in on her almost immediately.. concentrating on her movements/ interactions with the others - what she was saying to who and how she was saying it .. voice tone etc

She just seemed so disingenuous to me ..

She was shape shifty from the very beginning, but she played into her age a bit to appear more harmless and so those nastier bits she kept under her hat. For example, playing into how she lives alone as if she is an emotionally challenged hermit. However, we could tell she was going to be very polarizing as she made more comments, which in BB could be amazing or not so amazing. I think watching the series back it would probably show Caroline in a different light and would paint a different picture of even how she's portraying herself now. For a bit, she pretended to be thicker than she really was (that conversation with Teja), which is so ironic given her accusations towards Richard. I think there's a lot of projecting going on there and it helped people to build up their perception of Richard and obviously it benefited his edit. So funny to watch.

She remains entertaining for me even if personally I think she is a complete nut. Richard handled her really well, but if she had gone after someone like Teja more consistently across the entire series, I would probably feel very differently. She went after Richard because they were on the same level and it was really easy to get away with more given as he was so passive (and so Christian gasp)...

Now she is saying it's so convenient how it worked out, that he even played her. She played herself as she thought what she had in Richard was a very safe, soft target that she could conveniently use to play up to the cameras.

Yes I would agree she was a good housemate- I wouldn’t want to have been in there with her though- she was good for the overall series and a far nicer person than awful Jenny

Jenny bothers me even less because she walks around like she has a giant megaphone inside her brain screaming "We're Jennnyyyy".. and it makes loud noises, but only about herself.

It's amazing how walled off from the rest of the world she was at times. But I think even she knew that because she always kept the same face.

Jenny being called out on basically anything:

She was bad enough before her mum told her that all of Derry were backing her and there were advertising hoardings around town supporting her .. she thought that she couldn’t lose with the whole country behind her and got even more dislikable
