I wouldn't say Jason is noble for taking the 20k or not taking the 5k. What Jason did when he took the 20k and evicted Lateysha was to play the game. No one saw what he did coming and it was a brilliant tactical move as well as great telly. Lateysha ruled the roost in her group and taking her out is a significant dynamic change to the house. She would never have been nominated enough for an eviction as she had too many bitches who would nominate people she talked about and didn't like. This is what I love about what Jason did. He played the game well. What he didn't factor in was the risk that any fans Lateysha has outside might then try to vote him out but BB have taken care of that with vote to save. Also the cheers he got were pretty sweet when he was up for eviction so maybe he figures he is popular enough to weather it.
As to the 5k I think that most of them are suspicious at this point, having seen that most things end up with consequences. I think the housemates who didn't take the 5k for the most part felt they could end up for eviction or something this week if they did and 5k wasn't worth losing their place to them. I think most of them secretly think they can win specially with Lateysha out of the way. I think Alex took the 5k because he was voted most forgettable and thinks he cannot win now so didn't feel inclined to live on basic rations and felt 5k was as nice in his bank as in the winners. All the twittering on about how he wouldn't take 20k is just fake bull****. If I was BB I'd call him on it and offer to swap his 5k for 20k. Then after do the same to Jackson and if takes the 20k Alex loses it. watch the **** hit the fan if that happens. Jackson is the stereotypical council estate boy on benefits who thinks Georgina is a princess and is always going to take the money if he can. He has probably never seen 5k before. Even though some of the others say they have no money, they are all fairly well groomed, even Ryan has his fake tans and Botox lips, 5k would pay for a few more tans. These things cost money so while they may say they are skint, they probably aren't and 5k isn't a massive amount of money to most of them. If it had been 10k I think they'd all have taken a risk for it.
Jason and Hughie are my two favourites this series. The phrase trouble raising bitch will go down in legend!
