I thought Shane was a compelling housemate when he was speaking in depth about issues that he was passionate about, he was very eloquent in the way he put his points across and was a very good and engaging speaker. I could listen to him speak all day. If the show was a more serious conversational show where he discussed topics that he was interested in I'd definitely give it a watch.
I think it'll probably just be Courtney singing Body Parts and AAA for an hour, which would be fun for the first few minutes but a waste of the chance to get some important messages across.

Courtney and India were definitely a farce, but again--India was a trainwreck, so not necessarily "in" on our what her own farce was... I would say she was self-aware when it was most convenient... dense when more relaxed and herself and she could truly give two sh**s how she made others feel in her presence. She was a complex character, so enjoyable... Wayne was also complex, but like Ann, had his own mind and I appreciated his quirkiness... Courtney seemed to be pre-programmed with all the pseudo-intellectual and yet "trendy" social justice rebuttals/nit-picks... but she was very keyed in to how others were feeling and played off those emotions (while very subtlely manipulating them in very well hidden ways). That was her schhtick though and it sold really well to the public... obviously there's a market for it and they're wise to cast her, because she has a pre-existing fanbase. To some degree, they're all acting... but I think at least with India, you could blame some of that on naivety... with Courtney, it was definitely very methodical and their game-plan very well crafted... but Shane seemed like a drama kid, i.e. well trained in theater... played to the "audience's" emotions... he is a great performance artist, but not necessarily the most out-of-the-box Big Brother housemate. At least for me. I think if they bring in drag queens again, they should cast more than one. One just makes it gimmicky for me. I think with a few people who are very well-versed in theatre/the art of drama mixed in with a couple of dragqueens would be perfect would be a lot more interesting with multiple in, preferably with POV's... and more entertaining than the Jersey Shore-type housemates. |

so that's his fault that he won? iirc the theme was year of the woman (not necessarily British) but nowhere was it specified the winner must be a woman otherwise there would have been only women in the house to make sure it happened |

It was never specified that it was Year of the British Woman. It was the Year of the Woman, and personally I think Shane/Courtney was a far better winner and a true representative of what the series was about than someone like Ann would have been, who would have been a great winner if the Year of the Woman was set in 1885.

Mess I was legit about to post this. Also I saw on twitter that there was another question about BB on the 100k Drop. ALSO the house has been renewed for 3 years. I'm probably clutching at straws but like...

They’ve never been this comfortable talking about it since the switchover, Davinas always going on about how much she misses it when someone tags her in a video.
