Sam as a person, easily

[Rob!]

Neither should have won...both completely the opposite sides of the spectrum...I guess Helen, because at least she was memorable in her series. People literally only know Sam for winning.

[Raph]

Sam definitely, my favorite BBUK winner of all time.

Both are some of the worst winners we've had and I've made my opinions known on both... but Sam, by miles.

Like I've said it multiple times and it seems to fall on deaf ears but surely the winner of a series has no bearing over your enjoyment of the series. BB6, BB7, and BB9 are all often referred to as 'great' or 'the best' series but had totally bland and/or terrible winners.

By all means keep the 'entertaining' (look, I'm even willing to compromise with you on what constitutes entertainment, because it sure as hell is not Helen Wood) housemates until the very end - through contrived and fixed 'final pass' twists if you must - but don't take the piss and pretend she is in any way a redeemable or 'deserving' winner. The winner should always, 100% be the best 'person' in the final. Anything else (like how much of the series they dominated) should be an after-thought.

I mean really this is not that far off from saying that Jade Goody should have won CBB5 and Shilpa was terrible.

I mean, almost 20% of the voting public still voted to evict Shipla over Jade so I'm not entirely surprised

I know, it horrifies me when I hear some people actually arguing the case that Shilpa was to blame in that scenario

[Liam-]

Jade was terrible that series without a doubt, but Shilpa was hardly a 'good housemate' entertainment wise

[LukeB]

Shilpa was a goddess

[Shaun]

well I mean you were probably 4 at the time but ok liam sure

Apart from the Rachel part, she's still my favourite winner.

Sam wasn't exactly a brilliant winner, but he beats an aggressive bully like Helen any day. People can say she "added more" all they want, but what she "added" isn't anything good.

It's a sad fact that bullies always win, whether it be 100k or a poll on Tibb

That really depends on why you are watching BB and what you get out of it. While entertainment may be the primary focus in early weeks, by the time it gets to the last few weeks, people have identified who they want to win, and it becomes a battle between those left. Entertainment doesn't enter into it. Thats why Helen won last year imo, and she as much deserved that win as any other BB winner. Its not like a general election, its forgotten the next day, it has no impact whatsoever on anyone.

2) He was an all round nice guy who stood up for his friends and didn't bitch
3) His friendship with Callum was awesome to watch (Also his friendship with Gina actually)
4) He was funny, loved his one liners
5) He was Welsh
