It is a MIX and VARIETY of reactions and contestants that I want to see, not one attention seeking bint who, even if her phobias and fainting were genuine, would be able to bore for England. So NO, she was NEVER once entertaining or amusing, but if you thought so what can I say

These shows do NOT thrive on allowing a single contestant or couple to dominate the air time, but on the interaction between all of them, and the slow burners should be given a chance to shine. Gillian was not a BIG character, neither was she entertaining, funny, endearing, charismatic, lovable, interesting or amusing - only the braindead would be fooled by her deliberate attention seeking and deceitful behaviour, and encourage it by persistently voting for her, despite the fact she never brought anything new to the table.

So therefore, my little love, you are wrong and my point is proved because clearly the majority agree with me and did NOT vote for the freak. In your little mind no doubt that proves you are somehow superior, but in everyone else's it proves that YOU and the other deluded idiots who voted for her to NOT do anything, are easily pleased and rather simplistic in your opinions as to what is considered entertainment or amusement. Some of us expect a hell of a lot more in return for investing our time, interest and emotion into watching such shows.

Unfortunately, It is the way these types of shows have been going the past few years, and goes a long way to explain the demise of reality tv shows like Big Brother that promised so much in the early days but ultimately delivered so little.

Very well put and exactly right.
