Sometimes there are great Hms who either don't make the final or are not rated as highly as you think they should be. Mine are:

BB1 Although my favorite was Nasty Nick that year, I really liked Melanie, Sada and Tom

BB2 Stuart the winker, Amma

BB3 Adele, Spencer

BB4 Federico and Geuto (the African BB swap guy)

BB5 Ahmed - most underrated HM ever imho - he was brilliant in the military task, the A-H-M-E-D rants ie 'A is for amazing, H is for handsome' etc, BB 'I HATE him', 'Big Brother I am not a sandwich'. TV Gold. Overlooked mainly as Victor was brilliant too.

BB6 Loved Makosi, but Kemal, Derek and vile Lesley were great BB viewing

BB7 Shebaz, Bonneh, but seeing she was nominated against my fav Glyn she had to go

BB8 hated them all really but Shanessah was chavily brilliant

BB9 Rex, not sure how underrated he is, Sara, annoying newbie Belinda Belinda Belinda

BB10 Freddie, Marcus, Angel

BB11 Ben, Corin and Sam (not sure how underrated he is)

BB12 Maisy, Heaven

Interesting list.

Oh yea, Rodrigo suffered from what Tom this year suffered from 'Gay/ bi guy being the funny one in a partnership with a llikeable ditzy blond girl, but the ditzy blond girl getting the credit' syndrome. For Alex substitute Sophie Reade. The only gay man to come out on Tom was Brian Dowling and that's mainly because Narinda wasn't likeable, ditzy or blond!

Lisa BB10 - wow, wow!! you mean the bald headed lesbian? Underrated is stretching it a bit imho, but she was good value! Or are you confused with Lisa BB9 who was part of a couple with Mario. Or the Lisa from BB7 from Manchester who fancied Pete? So many Lisas!

[Kate!]

BB1 - Caroline.
2 - No-one really, my faves all did well.
3 - Adele Roberts.
4 - Tania Do Nascimento, reminded me of Claudia Winkleman. Jon Tickle. Federico Martone.
5 - Dan.
6 - Kinga. Kemal.
7 - Shabnam.
8 - Chanelle. Liam.
9 - Dale, Sara, Luke and Bex. Should have been final four.
10 - Sir Benjamin Duncan.
11 - Maisy.

I remember Tania Do Nascimento she was one of the girls people claimed was a ****** that year (along with newbie Lisa).

Yeah, how ridiculous eh, not about Lisa though.

[fruit_cake]

Mario bb9
Emma bb5

[pimpslapper]

I felt Tom was underrated. The HMs all loved him but the viewing public were very meh.

It's weird how you look back on housemates and see some differently. Didn't like BB9's Mario much at the time, as he was in so many other reality shows, but then so are a lot of ex housemates, so silly reason really I suppose for me taking a dislike to him, although did feel he was a bit false also. But looking back he had some great moments and was a brilliant housemate. Another marmite housemate.

Emma could have been a great housemate, don't think she should have been chucked out.

Wasn't there also a Lisa in BB4? who could kill someone with two fingers

I didn't like Mario, but he made a great housemate. Plus, I saw him in Asda a few weeks ago

[Niamh.]

Seany BB8

[King Gizzard]

Tashie

[Locke.]

Mo and Mario BB9.

Mo was at the center of every talking point of BB9. And Mario's hilarious moments were overlooked because most people hated him

[Ramsay]

Agreed about Mo,Seany and Mario
Would hardly say Ben Rex Marcus and Freddie were underated
Most people love them

[karl100589]

This for me begins and ends with Ahmed, the guy was absolutely hilarious and BB5, but unfortunately nobody ever appreciates him apart from the plate smashing moment.

Others to consider:
Caggy
Federico
Kemal
Belinda Belinda Belinda
Seany
Mario Marconi

Glad someone else agrees about Ahmed. I would love to have seen a HM like him this year, sadly I don't think C5 would risk putting someone like him into the house now.

[Joe.]

BB10- Bea.

[TheManWhoLaughs]

Belinda - not the best housemate ever or anything, but nobody ever mentions her, even when talking about BB9 but she was a really interesting casting choice and the only good "older" woman they've ever put in the house apart from Lesley (who lasted longer but still gets lots of love).

Craig Coates was underrated for years but I think he is finally getting some appreciation Derek was loved at the time but doesn't seem to get mentioned much nowadays even when talking about classic posh housemates

Most overrated: Heaven (she wasn't that interesting really), Aaron (he's a decent old-school winner, but he's not the Messiah), Freddie (annoying), Sam Pepper.

[Kazanne]

Rex,(my fave next to Aaron)great housemate, imo would have won had Nicole not gone in.
Ben,I found him hilarious and feel he left far too soon,I feel he had plenty more comedy moments left in him.
Freddie,wanted him to eat the 'bully' gang,think he also went too early

Interesting comments, TheManWhoLaughs

Yes, Belinda Belinda Belinda was one of the best 'oldie' HMs. She was entertainingly annoying but didn't fade into the background like fellow newbie Maysoon and loved her on the cycling task and her snoring.

The thing with Craig Coates was he came up with some great one liners, LOLs, DR moments and drama but the whole 'gay stalking Anfernee' is what defines him and what everyone will remember him for. When he wore the wig and got insulted that someone likened him to Moors murderer Myra Hindley is in my all time BB moments!

Heaven was superb, she is one of the few non-old females who could hold a conversation about something other than hair straighteners, celebs, boob jobs, men and lip gloss.

Aaron, obviously is popular, he's not underrated, he's rated as he won!! In fact he's in my all time top 10 at no 5. Don't think he was overrated purely because he faced stiff competition and a campaign by BBOTs/ OKTV/wolfpack/ Jem to stop him winning

Freddie - brilliant, genuinely quirky and lacked self-awareness which is rare to find in HMs now. I was gutted when he was evicted.

Sam Peper, obviously not underrated by any means, but loved the fact he came into BB with a fortnight to go and did more than the rest had done for the whole series.

We've got similar tastes in HMs!
