The Sunshine situation, Josie and JJ's romance, Mario's unrequited love, Ife drifting from her original clique, the housemates growing lack of trust for Dave and Ben, plus other things created by the tree and nominations and save and replace. One housemate does not have this profound effect you try and make out.

And quite frankly, at the end of the day, the bottom line is that the vast majority of people just do not like watching vapid, nasty people and people like Govan and Rachael do so so much more harm to the show than they do good.

Whilst the first line is true, I don't want Caoimhe/Shabby to integrate themselves with the rest of the house, because that's boring. They'll inevitably end up getting along as one big group instead of their being two seperate groups, and the latter is obviously better - a divide = more confrontation = a better storyline. Ife does nothing regardless so her drifting from her original clique isn't something to shout about.

And whilst that is true - people should be voting logically. What people need to remember is we're not actually living with these 'nasty' people, but the housemates are. And these 'nasty' people will do a hell of a lot more for the development of storylines than the likes of Ife, Steve and Mario. It happens every year. People vote out these housemates, and a few weeks down the line complain it's boring, and it's their own fault. A boring show = low ratings = a factor contributing to Big Brother getting the axe.

I'm the exact opposite of people like Govan, Rachael and 'bitchy, nasty' people etc, but this isn't about me or what type of people I dislike. This is about an entertainment show. An entertainment show where the viewing public should endeavour to ensure that there's as many storylines as possible - and keeping these nasty, bitchy, confrontational housemates are important. As much as I hate to admit it, can you imagine what BB10 would've been like for the first few weeks without Lisa's group?
