I wouldn't call them awful, I certainly like most of them as individuals, but as a collective cast they're pretty dull and in hindsight it's a good thing the twist happened because the newbies have injected some life into the series.

However, I'm still pissed off about the way it was executed because we could've had the four newbies and just lost one housemate instead, cause three of the four we lost were actually the best housemates of the original cast.

This is so true. There was so much more untouched potential.

I would have loved seeing the twins reaction to marc...

Me too, and Harriet's

I think the original incident with Chloe/Mark/Danny could have turned quite serious had they still been around

[mrflibble]

I feel the opposite, the newbies are awful and I'm bored to death every time they're on screen. The 'drama' is even more boring than the Jade crap from weeks ago. It's no wonder why Joel is whinging about them because I'd be doing the same. Horrible people.

[chuff me dizzy]

I only like Danny and Cristian, the others are terrible

[Black Dagger]

Yeah tbh of the originals atm the only one I like is Cristian now Eileen is gone. The newbies bar Harry who is trash are ace.

[sampvt]

Typical BB. They get rid of the interesting ones first but this time, they did it not the GBP so even when they think they are doing the right thing, they are getting it wrong. Can you actually see what the house would be like now with the twins, harriet, Kieran and Sally in as opposed to My Blobby, the virgin pervert, rubber lips and the polyamourous liar. Great swap in my book.

They couldn't organise a 5 knuckle shuffle in a ***** house with an open wallet. Who are these inane nitwits anyway, are they all YTS and totally devoid of logic. Even the tasks this year are so boring they beggar belief.

There is no other way I could describe them and I can't imagine how dull the highlights would be to sit through without the newbies (apart from Harry that is, I don't like this girl AT ALL)

Especially...

Joel - Turned into a moaning, miserable, boring, lecturing old man, this kid acts about 85 ffs just shut up.

Jack - Pretty much the same as Joel but add in anger issues

Actually surprisingly enough the only original housemates I like are Cristian and Jade, which is a huge turnaround from a week or so ago.

So yeah, thank **** for the twist and the newbies IMO.

i prefer the newbies & like you Josy I really like Jade now

[Amy Jade]

Joel has always been awful - it's nice to see people finally catching on to what an insufferable knobhead he is. It's tragic we lost Eileen to the smary prat

[Lostie!]

The originals are really annoying me with their self-satisfied righteousness now. These people need some self awareness.

[TomC]

I can't believe there are only 7 left! Well 8 if you include Simon... There has been a lot of wastage from the original 16: the twins, Adjoa, Aaron and Eileen had more to give.

Out of the 7 that have been there the whole time...

Cristian is probably my overall favourite tbh. He is just so nice and fair, and has kept a level head the whole time even in dispute.
Joel is really sinking in my estimations. He's becoming quite arrogant and annoying.
Nick is sinking too. Him playing with Harry is such a mistake - she's a total bitch. I also think he's not as shy and awkward as he says... The way he speaks to and about someone like Marc suggests this.
Danny is quite bland to be honest, and I found his nomination of Sam quite cruel.
Jack is just annoying. Totally hypocritical with regards to noms and two-facedness. He's treated Simon appalingly and is so self-righteous.
Chloe is funny but also highly hypocritical, again regarding being two faced. She was two-faced about Simon too. I did find her drink-throwing funny though and also when she screamed "You two-faythed bathtard" at Simon
Jade is growing on me. She is very straight-forward and an interesting character. However her baby voice grates and she has also engaged in the nastiness towards Simon.

I have to say at this stage I'm finding it difficult to have a favourite- Cristian is the only one of the originals I really like but he is really quite bland. Out of the newbies I really like Sam and Marc and they may well become my favourites

[y.winter]

The newbies are trashy and vile, I find it far more awful.
Not easily amused by any housemates declaring they're dicks. It's not genuine, just artificial.

[Glam diamond]

Why do people hate Joel so much? I like him. He's funny, genuine and such a...unique person. Never seen a housemate like him before.

Agreed. I've always liked Cristian, but Jade has grown on me recently. And also these two like each other big time. They say they don't, but their actions say different.

They do look cute in their pics. I must admit I never thought they did but the fact that the housemates appear to have noticed their flirting then maybe there is. I thought they looked very close in the clip today where she kissed his back. Did laugh though because she is resting her head on his back looking quite into it and he is busy chomping on his cereal

I think they would make a cute couple. I have them as my avvi.

I agree, I think they would. I think Danny is very jealous of Cristian. His face was like thunder when he was talking about them. I reckon now Sarah is out the picture he probably had Jade lined up as his next conquest. He is fast becoming the house bitch.

Agreed. I don't like the old housemates that much anymore. All they do is bitch and moan. But i quite like Jade and Cristian. They just seem so relaxed and are both enjoying their time in the House.

[susie q]

I didnt like Jade much from the very beginning, but thought she would be an interesting if devious housemate, but she just rolled over and let Harry steal her queen bee crown,
she is now as boring as the rest of the old housemates.
The only ones I still quite like are Christian & Joel,

[sarah2020]

I only really like Mark and Danny. The original HM are dare I say boring. and seam to sit around moaning and whining about the new HMs. Also find it very creepy and cringe with the Nick/ Harry saga, cant see her going for Nick in real life and especially if he was broke. HMs not as good this year.
