I like Shabby. In fact IMO she's one of the better HMs in recent years. I really don't get all the Shabby hate. Fair enough everyone has different tastes, but I've yet to see any "real" reasoning from Shabby detractors as to why she is so disliked.
Quotes like "she's fake", "She's only in it for herself" or "She's Scabby" are speculative and could equally apply to the majority of HMs and I would suggest describe Racheal much more accurately.
I think Shabby offers something different to the house. She is entertaining, has an interesting character and it is fast becoming evident that she is an intelligent, down-to-earth and kind person with decent morales.
If she is evicted this week, then I think we will lose a very good HM and be left with a house where the females (Sunshine (and possibly Josie) apart) are just carbon copies of each other.
I know UK BBs have a history of evicting the more interesting HMs early on, and this has never bothered me before as they have usually been annoying to watch, but I really do not understand it this time round.
Is the reason she is so disliked because she is a squatter? Because there seems to be a bit of dis-information about this. Or because she was an actress and British people like their wannabes to have no talent? Or perhaps because she doesn't fit into the traditional "Nuts" mould that teenage boys think all girls should look like?
I simply do not know and I eagerly await replies explaining why she is so disliked.
