We know nothing about her, we don't know how she behaves whilst having fun (she doesnt believe in fun), we don't know how she behaves during an argument.. all we do know is that she can't crack a smile and is living from 30 seconds worth of bitching highlights a day.
I've said housemates will be holding back whilst in the company of the likes of Helen who will attack anybody that opens their gob, and Ashleigh is probably one. I like her and i think shes got a lot more to offer, but so far she just puts a downer on the show.

Every segment we've had of hers and Danielle's this week has had us learn more about her though and have finally given her a role in the show and something we can pull apart and ponder over whether it's going to lead anywhere, before she was this non-existent background character that we all assumed was some inoffensive nice 18 year old girl that wasn't going to have an opinion on anything, quite clearly that's not true. She's much better now than she was a couple of weeks ago...well actually she didn't even exist in the show a couple of weeks ago, so how could she be worse now than before or how could it not be a good thing that she's getting more airtime?
I think saying she doesn't believe in fun is a little unfair, the atmosphere in that house must be appalling and I'm not surprised she doesn't want to participate in some activities with some of the people in there...I also think people like Toya and Danielle have had an influence on her attitude but rather than it being a bad thing it's a good thing because like I said it's given her a purpose and something we can finally discuss regarding her, if she was just joining in the fun and having a good old time then well there's not really much to talk about is there? It's just...oh isn't Ashleigh great having a laugh with the rest of them...I'm sure she's like that in real life but it's not a beneficial role to have on a show like Big Brother
She seems like someone who's got her head screwed on right, knows what's what and doesn't agree with people being treated like **** (there's a few comments she's made about situations in the house which I've fully agreed with) and hopefully she'll stand her ground should an argument with Helen emerge. Obviously it might not and then in a few weeks if this continues my opinion may have to change, for now I don't see how it's anything other than a good thing the new role she's got in the show though
Ash,
