Unless you know the total votes cast we don't know who got the most in reality.

Claire was 29% above minimum, and Mel was 36% above minimum. There's no point trying to deny that Mel got a higher vote than Claire.

I'm not denying anything.

(I'm actually struggling to understand how this never-ending debate about percentages has any bearing on the OP but there you are.)

I'm simply pointing out that unless you know the number of votes cast then the percentages don't quite show the disparity in their popularity. And I don't think a difference of 7% is all that revealing to support a racist argument. All we know is both were evicted the first time they faced a public vote and it was quite near the end.

I don't care for the racism argument anymore, I was just trying to get the poster to understand simple Maths.

No offense but do you believe any allegations on these shows?

No matter what people say or what voting patterns show up you always disprove them as nothing and acceptable anyway.

Sadly we don't get many like Alison.

Even when I see her on daytime TV she still makes me smile.

She was hilarious.

It was awful. She kept running up the stairs then running back down them again. The crowd were like "just walk out the door bitch"

Charley: Viewed as heavily aggressive by the public, and was constantly chanted by the crowd outside for weeks, despite not being up for eviction. Yet, Helen Wood, viewed as more aggressive than Charley and Alexandra and received 14 warning from BB in 2 weeks, won her series.

Helen had a sh*te channel 5 series, a finale pass, much less viewers and several twists on her side.

Would someone like Helen have won 10 years ago? No.

That's a sign of the direction of the show on 5, not racism.

I'm surprised some ultra sensitive SJWs haven't cried racism over Jack's spraytan task.
