I think people are too cynical, I mean most housemates are always complaining about people 'playing the game' or being 'fake' when it's a gameshow so clearly they don't have those kind of ideas in their head so why would they want to start up a fake romance? I just don't buy it personally, it's either genuine because of how much time they have to spend with each other or it's just cause they're horny

Ziggy and channelle was funny but it was still fake as ****. Most of the girls clearly wanted to get into a showmance from day one and Channelle snatched the first boy in there.
Ziggy was a massive game player he obviously found channel quit annoying most of the time. Being with channelle was part of his game.(maybe a bit because he's horny)

They are definitely engaging in it to lengthen their stay because theyve both stepped it up as soon as they were nominated.

Ziggy was the awful self-pitying, audience-manipulating, show-ruining monster archetype that then led to Darnell, Siavash, John James, and all culminated with ****ing Aaron. His gameplan was ridiculous transparent and he definitely planned on riding Chanelle out for what she's worth and then tossing her aside afterwards. He's arrogant and smug and obviously gets off on stuff like that. However, even though Chanelle was the best candidate for this type of showmance he didn't factor in that she's ****ing mental so it was a huge serving of karma to watch him squirm around after he bit off way more than he could chew. I think Chanelle's intentions were sincere, but Ziggy was as cynical as ever and paid for it with his sanity. On the other hand, I think Ashleigh and Luke S were both equally cynical about it and by the end of it if they really could've had their way, she would've been ****ing Conor and he would've been ****ing Lauren.

As for Ash and Steven, I'm not entirely sure yet. Still too early to tell.

..or maybe showermance..?...

[Sophiee]

possibly steven, because he's been highlighting the fact he's really into kimberly a lot more for the past couple of days. ash has already said that he doesn't want to make it awkward with helen so he's not going to make a move anyway.

Notice how these little showmances are tending to pop up when the individuals concerned are up for eviction?

[Dash Darington]

Not sure why the question is limited to the guys. Helen has a free pass, but Kim doesn't. She's as keen to invent a storyline for herself as anyone else.

nah think they just want abit of sticky pudding
