I bet that both Gary & Audley will be edited badly tonight, especailly Gary.
It feels to me as if bbots last night were trying to "sell" George as the winner last night. For me that would only be marginally better than either James or Dee winning. I also suspect we will see a good edit for Dee & James, can only hope that it doesnt result in another win for an abusive person.

It felt that way to me too and Luisa needs to crawl back down whatever hole she came out of. I hope they don't go that route because it would be disgusting. For me there are four people in that house that seriously don't deserve to win. George is the least offensive but does that mean he deserves the whole show? No way.

The prods know that if George wins, he is a budget and easy option to future any further programs with. If Audley or james wins, they will need to dig deeper and pay for that privilege if and when they can get him. Dee and George are the cheaper option so we must conclude that one of them will be helped over the winning line, regardless of what we think.

If George wins he does BOTS which is watching a game show, and then talking about it. I think that Gogglebox was a similar thing.

Gary is easy to bad edit, because his brain has no edit.

We got him to to the final against all odds. Everything else is a bonus, to be honest.

Absolutely. I want Gary to win, and have already voted for him, if he wins, great.

I am not convinced that edits make any difference at this stage in the game. I already know my fav, no amount of editing that makes Dee in to Mother Teresa or George into the most comic man on the planet will change my favourite.

As to what comes next for housemates. The pool of available presenters for whatever show is so great, that a housemates popularity is irrelevant imo. Of all the hm's this series, if any of them are going to come out with a TV deal, it will be Frenchy and whether the person is ultimately the winner of BB or not is not important, its what they have got to offer.

He has a great life anyway. Gorgeous wife and cute toddler son. And they live in Hawaii.

Very perceptive. I totally agree.

Aw yes dear ole Frenchy, I wish her luck, I loved her. Would like to see her get on, she could make a good presenter, a rather cheeky one.

Oh I love the sound of Hawai, I hope we hear more of the both of them. I hope they do well with their charity for their son. Hope we see them altogether before the show ends but I doubt it.

I'm not sure. Their son is very young and they will want to protect him from the media.

It's too late for people to suddenly change favourites now so hopefully it won't make any difference

You may be right Vanessa as they would have had a lot of coverage in US I would think. I wonder how the others will cope with their presence. I have the feeling that if their is any snobbery it will be on the part of James, who thinks he is the greatest and who didnt want Gary and Audley in the final, (after all he does liken himself to Brad Pitt) and Dee. Edelle would be better out of their influence but what game is she playing with George who obviously does not have any loyalty to anyone. It would be so interesting to see.

The beauty of tele is that we have the off button, I certainly wont be watching anything any of them present and James well.......no way!!!

I think they will stay in the UK for a bit, to do the interviews. But then will go back home. Don't blame them.

I think the OP may well be right.

Final night voting crowned Helen the winner. He was booed last night first time in 3 weeks, the voting public are a fickle lot, a bad edit tonight and he could be toast, plus we seem to be getting George and Edele pushed on to us I wish they would go away.

[ThriceShy]

I still think gary will win by a mile.

We have watched him relentlessly bullied every night for a month. And emma made a big point of talking about the huge percentage of save votes he got in the first eviction. It really is too late for them to turn this around.

[Vanessa]

As long as James doesn't win then i don't mind. I don't think i've hated a CBB contestant as much as him. Absolute dick!

Apparently George and Edel had a night of flirting and kissy kissy

The things people will do to win a game

A Dee or George win would be a catastrophe.

Bully an old man for 4 weeks then get rewarded for it.

I know, but even they're not as bad as that bully James. He's relentless. Always on Gary's case. I don't condone violence, but he needs a slap!

I agree with you Vanessa. Plus BB is as we are always being told is these days nothing like the social experiment it started out as, too many media savvy wannabees because some are not even celebs imho, now whom the producers pander to and veer many of the viewers towards voting for to win. Watch them turn up now on other shows such as IACGMOOH, The Cube, and Strictly etc.

I don't believe winning BB means so much for anyone other media savvy wannabees these days who just want that easy steppping stone to fame helped by the producers of such shows, whom a lot of the time already have shows lined up for them but want that extra recognition and acceptance from the audience first so it will boost ratings of a a new show for them. The George's and Dee's of these shows are probably briefed before the show how to catch air time etc; Ricci probably was also but was too dull to take it in.

You don't always have to win such a show as BB to come out on top though, and win or not, Gary will be remembered for being the star of this CBB and will probably take away a new fanbase from it

He needs a wake up call as to his atrocious behaviour. He certainly doesn't act his age. He is like a petulant child.
