Absolutely not its pathetic people can't keep control for a few weeks and get back to reality - plenty of them have stayed together just to prove a point but they always break up

Definitely not.

The highlight time we do have is already very little and the producers latch onto any whiff of a possible showmance and force feed to us as much as they possibly can.

Showmances are games played by attention-seekers. They clog the HL show and BOTS with utter crap.

No.

That's one of the reasons I loved CBB9, there was no silly romance. They tried to start one between Kirk and Georgia, but they just ended up disliking each other.

It depends on the showmance.

If I feel there is genuine feelings then I think it's nice to see something blossom, but when's its blatant playing up to the cameras, trying to get mag deal rubbish then no I don't.

No they are insanely boring but emotions run high in that house and people become attached and i think whatever you think of Helen and Ash they have dealt with it in the proper way by not indulging in a shameful embarrassing showmance that hogs the highlights and instead agreeing to leave it until they leave the house to see if there is anything in it.

No, but if they cause drama in the house without dominating the highlights then I don't mind so much.

I don't care at all; I don't think they're a big deal-if your favourite suddenly started one would that instantly put you off or would you see what else they did?.

People are putting too much emphasis on what they see as "shomances" so that they call say they're all fake and therefore boring, and not enough of how the hm's treat each other/behave when they're alone.

No. There really hasn't been a decent showmance to watch since Chiggy tbh, and that was mostly because of how bitchy Chanelle was during the showmance

I like dysfunctional showmances, but not the Shakespeare type showmances like Steven and Kimbot.
