Is that Beef between him and Isabelle still going? I thought it ended months ago

[T*]

Didn’t like him at first, started really liking him during the series (him & chanelle were cute) and then couldn’t really be arsed with him when all that drama was going on where they fell out with Isabelle and something just doesn’t feel right anymore.
Looking back there were better places for hm’s to be with Isabelle in the final 2 but that doesn’t mean he wasn’t good at the time

[Eddie.]

He was nice, but boring.

He just stood in the shadows of the bigger characters and stayed UTR for most of the time...

Plus he acts desperate these days, especially to get on BBUS/BBCAN, by attending cast meetings and stuff when he isn’t involved at all...

[Amy Jade]

I was open minded but swaying to like when Shaun said he was going in but his VT was awful and my first impression was bad and made worse by so many people here defending his cheating, that baffled me and I remember specifically me and Tom were basically called jealous of Raph because we were one of the very few who voiced our dislike.

I did warm to him as the series went on and I even voted to keep him in a few times but really it was just because he was associated with Chanelle and Issy. I was happy Issy beat him but would have been happy had he won.

That changed when he started being shady to Issy and he, Chanelle and the Javeeds started talking crap about her. I thought he came across really badly and his reapperance on here made me cringe, only acknowledging praise rather than answering anything worth reading.

All in all he was pretty dull but served a purpose I guess but he is obviously insanely envious Isabelle beat him which will always raise a smile for me.

Can't knock him for BSing his VT to live his dream, and now he's BFFs with queen Chanelle, and his idols from overseas (Willow and Naeha BBCan and Alex from BBOTT).

^all of this

[Headie]

Although if we get the tea on Rachel Rice that could boost his tier!

I don’t really understand how him hanging out with bbusa/bbcan cast makes him desperate to be on those shows when he was invited by them, he would have to chill with Robyn Kass (probably what paul did after bb18)if he was desperate. A super fan getting that invite ofc he would go to see the housemates he supported he didn’t randomly turn up which would have been desperation but theres no harm in accepting an invitation for a meet up. Quite cute how bbuk/canada/usa had a mini meet up here for Tahan to turn up to add australia to the international meet up

Has he tooks his head out of Chanelles ass yet

[Matthew.]

i think so, i liked him.

(and at least Luke A managed to get a win out of it)

Like A was prevalent from the beginning and was highly involved in the series. He had many conflicts with Luke S, Caroline and Becky. He had a lot of airtime and was one of the main characters of BB13 - I don’t get why people are saying he’s boring now?

yeah, i think so too

[DouglasS]

I’ve gone off him since the show - I think he disliked Rachel rice for not meeting him in person, but at least she replied to him after he won? He’s ignored practically everyone from TIBB since he entered the house, so it’s bizaree that he went off Rachel when he’s much worse himself?

[AnnieK]

It was great to have a TiBB representation on BB. He blended in well but I wasn't keen on the bitchy side, running off to tell tales etc. I get that that's what BB is about to create divides and win votes but still it didn't sit well with me. I felt he got unnecessary praise and criticism on here just because he was a member. All in all an ok housemate, not terrible and not outstanding

[Epic.]

It's rare for BB18 to have a good housemate but at the time he was one of the very few I could tolerate. Not one of my all time favourites but he had some great qualities like his conflict with Joe and his performance in fight night where he ran FASTER than the security guard Otherwise though, and I think he knows this too, he was in Chanelle's shadow a lot and considering how much more of value to the series she brought I prefer her much more. He also did some questionable things like in the task where they each had to save one housemate to save from eviction and he picked SUE despite her clashing with his best friend + the fact he knew Isabelle longer, or the pranking **** Josie advised him to do causing a weaker Impression on Sam Pepper when he was in the house. So all in all, an alright housemate but not a perfect one.

As for the Isabelle thing people keep mentioning, I dunno why that's being included in opinions since this is about Raph the housemate (even though 'FAAAAAKE' was still as forced as it is now).

[LeatherTrumpet]

a spineless, sycophant cowtailing to any girl he thought would be popular

awful

[Jøsh]

He was a bit of a boring character at the start of the series but towards the end he was showcasing the nicer side of him.

[Gstar]

No one likes an adulterer

[Fetch The Bolt Cutters]

Terrible housemate

[smudgie]

Lovely lad, enjoyed watching him as a housemate.
I would have been very happy had he of won.

[Mystic Mock]

I'd say that he was one of the biggest talking points of his year so I'd say he did a decent job.

Does the BIB not make you think that Isabelle had done something wrong tbf? After all can 4 people be wrong against 1 person?

Yes they can. They were jealous of her win, they wanted Raph to win and he got beaten. Sour grapes because she didn't want to hang out with them every night for twitter likes imo

[Vanessa]

Runner up is still a great result.

That's like asking if one girl is being ganged up and bullied by a gang of 6 other girls there must be something wrong with her and 6 girls can't all be in the wrong.

Really not liking the current trend of victim blaming.

Because he never Confronted the insiders, just bitched about them. He hated Caroline, Becky and Luke S But never said Anything to their Faces, even when he had the Chance.
