How many of those won though? If we're using the success of controversial characters and comparing like with like then BBUS has a much better ratio when it comes to winners, their calibre is far better than those who've won BBUK.

There are always exceptions to the rule, yes certain big characters have made it far in BBUK but the number of those who haven't if we were to list them would far outweigh those who did, and it's because of the backwards public vote or rather the moronic eviction patterns they produce.

Yeah but BBUK has had more female winners and most of them were quite outspoken... Also Big brother uk winners may not all be arseholes like the majority of us winners but it doesn't make them any less deserving. The good thing about BBUK is that it's not all about game plan so people who entertain the public with their personalities still win. Like Brian for example he didn't get himself invoked in a whole lot of drama but he was still an entertaining housemate and in my opinion a deserving winner.
