Stoph8inCharlie - I too am a northerner. My reasons for not liking him are as follows: His pathetic corny attempts at camera grabbing - for example, Nana et al. His going way over the top in a really nasty way and then telling people 'I'm only joking' - Like it's their problem. His inability to be happy for anyone in the limelight - for example, in talking over David when he was telling the housemates about the London day out. His childish sulks when he can't get his own way - like the whole episode last night for example. I could go on and on and on and on and on and on but then you'd only call me names wouldn't you....
Good for David for refusing to have his strings pulled. Charlie has gone from not being able to nominate in the first week (yeah we believed that) to nominating without a problem in the intervening weeks and now back to his original stance (again unbelievably). Also, I am a non smoker but I am beginning to think that these pages are sponsored by the anti smoking group ASH as the biggest beef that people appear to have with Lisa and David is the smoking. Over the years there have been numerous smokers so all of those who keep referring to David and Lisa as sheep should look at their own sheepish comments and find something more original to say.
I quite like Rodrigo but he really needs to lighten up and as for David suggesting that he was slacking off the task, how?, when? where? David doesn't pick fights for the sake of it but he will fight his corner if he is picked on and good for him for doing so.
I like Siavash and I don't like Charlie for reasons not relevant here. However, Charlie on this occasion is dead right. It's naive to imagine that Siavash's reasons for not nominating are purely altruistic, his methodology is very subtle but as Charlie rightly points out why bother adding 'I would never vote for you' unless it's a subliminal message to the opponent not to do likewise. Siavash will nominate this week and make himself look rather foolish for the futile and disingenuous stand that he has taken. They are all playing games to an extent and that's why the most innocuous of them is most appealing because it is far less obvious.
It amazes me that whilst she could nominate earlier in the series for Freddie that Sophie now finds it incredibly difficult to nominate - even with Bea in the house. Principles are all well and good but then so is consistency.
HJ - Try telling that to the judge. I fail to see how in response to David's direct question there is a difference in saying 'No' as opposed to 'No I did not nominate you.' Do I loathe Bea - Yes but obviously that's not the same as 'Yes I abhor the lying scheming madam' So I guess that means I actually like her then? Confused - you will be....
David isn't complaining about being up - he's angry at Bea for lying about it to him. Little does he know that she did exactly the same last week and told him she was nominating someone else when it was him she nominated. This is just what he needs to start standing up to her and I believe he will between now and Friday.
She is such a bully. After Kenneth and Tom went Bea and David are the only two newcomers left and this is why she has targeted David, she sees it as a feather in her cap to be the last remaining new housemate and she sees him as the easiest target. As per usual she has to drag others into it. Sophie needs to mind her own business, if she had suffered half of what David has been subjected to by Bea she wouldn't be so eager to comment. David was annoyed at Bea because he asked her did she nominate him and she lied and said no - it's not about 'having to nominate' as she has managed to convince the other housemates. If she stays in be careful Sophie you could be her next victim. Despicable lowlife she is.
I think she knows exactly what was said and she just moved very quickly to cover herself and implicate David at the same time. What a nasty individual she clearly is. Well done David for keeping your head and walking away - she was left with egg on her face and you kept your dignity. Roll on tomorrow. Can't wait.....
Charlie most reluctant to join in - just as he was last week when Bea, Marcus and Halfwit were arguing. He nearly choked on his own spit in his rush to scream to Bea that Freddie had said something. Isn't he supposed to be a friend of Lisa's? Little coward.
How long has she been away from home. A month? I've had longer shopping trips. It's not like she hasn't seen her mother much more recently than the rest of them is it? She knew that she wouldn't get the airtime with her unremembered friend and that there was little scope for tears and so she had to redress the situation and engineer a whole sub plot. It is so transparent. Has she managed to squeeze that tear out yet? She tried hard enough. No time for her at all.
