August 23, 201410 yr The only thing I'm thankful of is that, I keep thinking, if Pauline hadn't got the power, then many of the other housemates would've chosen her for the pass to the final, and she'd have been far worse to endure for the whole process than Helen imo. Well I guess you're right there, didn't think of that! She was idolised for whatever reason from like day 1 by basically everyone in there, I think except for Pauline Mark would have been most likely to get the power and he'd have definitely given her the pass :/ As I've said a few times about Helen, at least she had a week or so of being ok and was entertaining at times.
August 23, 201410 yr 13 | Pauline Bennett | -154 http://i1.mirror.co.uk/incoming/article3649152.ece/alternates/s298/Big-Brother-contestants-2014-Pauline-Bennett.jpg Highest: -6 | Enviroment -7 | troylovesmusic, HausofKubrick Lowest: -8 | RabbitHeart, Jack, JosephStyles, Lukuzz, Doug, Aled., Calum Hood, Jay, ROBOT, Rob Swift -9 | Liam, Jade, Ryan., Noahspike, troylovesmusic, Leonardo In a closely fought battle, Pauline just about manages to not come last. Her Big Brother experience shows the power of the VT. Firstly, she was seen as a favourite due to her VT being able to portray her as one, leading to her becoming the first power housemate. People say that the power went to her head but we can’t truly judge if it did or she was just being herself as, we as the public, never knew what she was like before the power. Anyway, whilst in the power, she had to judge everyone through their VTs, which she took to the extreme, turning the house against certain housemates due to a couple of lines they said in order to get into the house. She was able to grant Mark £5,000, give Jale a killer nomination (for a comment over chicken) and she also did something else that in no way at all changed the scope of the series. She was the oldest housemate in there by a lot of years which is possibly the reason, along with her having the power, why she was able to rule the house, with many housemates looking up to her as if she were high and mighty. Jazzy P was overly patronising and always believed that she knew best. She could happily dish out ‘advice’ and have a talking to housemates whenever she felt like it but she was never ready to accept it, something that only further prevented her and Jale ever getting along. She did have a huge impact on the dynamics of the rest of the series, whether it was down to the power or not but, unfortunately it was a terrible impact. YgZrPTP2epMYou have me on both -7 and -9 mine for Pauline I gave her a -7 :P. I'm glad both Steven and Pauline are out in hoping Helen follows next .
August 23, 201410 yr I was going to vote in this but there are only 6 of them that I could justify giving more than a 0. Glad to see Steven and Pauline out first, hoping Mark doesn't make it much further

Another arrogant housemate here who was always caught looking in the mirror as well as showing signs that he was misogynistic. For some reason, he apparently has an alter ego but this was never seen as the house, in fact, no interesting things from him appeared in the house. He did strike a couple of perhaps unlikely friendships through Jale and Danielle and seemed a bit like a spare part in ‘cool’ gang. His fate was sealed and the house turned on him once he pushed that button to save himself from eviction and, after receiving the most nominations, he was immediately evicted as part of the Armageddon twist. Now, as much as I disliked Marlon, this twist was perhaps one of the worst to appear in the shows history. The whole show is based around ‘who goes? you decide’ and so this twist completely threw this out of the window, especially when the housemates had no idea they were evicting someone. Often, one of the most entertaining housemates and well-loved on the outside has the most nominations and so we can only be thankful for the button pressing as otherwise it would have been the case here, with Ashleigh leaving. Also, if we look at the previous series, it would have meant Gina or Dexter leaving, ultimately the two stars of that series leaving without a proper exit and just through the back door. 17 | Marlon Wallen | -89 18 | Pauline Bennett | -154 19 | Steven Goode | -159 Edited August 26, 201410 yr by Rabbit Heart
August 25, 201410 yr The fact that I found Marlon one of the least annoying housemates in there says something about this series!! But saying that I'm still glad he's on negative points. I agree that he shouldn't have been evicted without a public vote - that just sets a precedent and could be open to abuse from the producers in the future. Edited August 25, 201410 yr by O Mie d'Bandit
August 25, 201410 yr He was SO BORING. In a way it was fine he went out the back door, fitting even given he didn't really do anything to deserve either claps or boos (he was a little arrogant to begin with I guess p), but I agree with everything you said about the twist. I get that they wanted Armageddon to tear up the house, but the casualty of the first twist just ended up being probably the most nondescript housemate so it didn't affect the house at all. I fail to think of a way it could have worked, fans would have caused uproar if a fan favourite like Ashleigh, Chris or Christopher were evicted and rightfully so. If it rid us of someone hated (Steven for example), most people would be disappointed he didn't have to experience the whole "humiliation" (as some people put it) of an eviction, but when someone nondescript was evicted through these means it didn't "CHANGE THE WHOLE HOUSE FOREVER!!1!1!1". So yeah in short, awful housemate and twist. He just didn't have enough to him for him to be as bad as some of the horrors this year.
August 25, 201410 yr For some reason, he apparently has an alter ego but this was never seen as the house, in fact, no interesting things from him appeared in the house. He did strike a couple of perhaps unlikely friendships through Jale and Danielle and seemed a bit like a spare part in ‘cool’ gang. My understanding was that the Marlon we saw 95% of the time (i.e. a cocky, vain lad-type who enjoyed #ladbanter, pranks and thought he could get any girl etc.) was the alter ego. According to Jale anyway, this persona was forced for the cameras and the real Marlon was the more sensitive guy who got on with her. I definitely thought he came across much better in his post-eviction interview and BOTS where he seemed drained by the week he had post-button pressing and dropped the act. Edited August 25, 201410 yr by Noahspike
August 25, 201410 yr Author That's a good point actually. Although I did think that his quietness in his post-eviction interviews were down to him wanting to attract sympathy but I suppose that may be me being harsh towards him.
August 25, 201410 yr This is going well so far, the bottom 3 is my personal bottom 3 and in the correct order as well!

She didn’t show many aspects of a stand-out character in her week’s stay so it’s hard to judge Tamara and she may have been higher had she stayed longer. However, she was a victim of being part of the ‘cool’ gang and possibly a protest against Helen’s final pass. After Danielle’s explosion after being nominated, it seemed clear that she would go and so the public choosing to evict Tamara seemed like we would get another series of the public getting it right! However, weeks 3-4 highlighted that this would not to be the case. The only real notable thing that Tamara was able to do was start a romance with Winston and so, that reason itself, is a good enough one to evict her. The less romances in BB, the better. 16 | Tamara Stewart-Wood | -79 17 | Marlon Wallen | -89 18 | Pauline Bennett | -154 19 | Steven Goode | -159 Edited September 4, 201410 yr by Rabbit Heart

I was really urging her to break her front and become this fierce game-player. Yet much of her ‘storylines’ in the house were just about her relationship with Steven. It was a miracle when her face moved from it's default position. She should have just let go and open up, instead all she did was open IT (whatever 'it' was). She left through the back door intending on returning but, alas, this was not meant to be. She would have been evicted on that night anyway so it's not as though the horrible reasons that caused her to leave damaged her time in the house. 14 | Kimberly Kisselovich | -61 16 | Tamara Stewart-Wood | -79 17 | Marlon Wallen | -89 18 | Pauline Bennett | -154 19 | Steven Goode | -159 Edited August 26, 201410 yr by Rabbit Heart
August 26, 201410 yr Author Kimberly is joint 14th with someone. WHO WILL JOIN HER? Edited August 26, 201410 yr by Rabbit Heart
August 26, 201410 yr Author NO. (I meant joint 14th. Why am I getting these numbers so wrong? I had Steven and Pauline as 14th and 13th instead of 19th and 18th :drama:)
August 26, 201410 yr Pretty spot on results so far! Yeah early on Kimberly was one of my favourites as she seemed to have potential, I felt myself rooting for her around the time of the electric shock task. It's a shame that she became attached to the god-awful Steven, and ruined any potential she had. Oh well, at least she wasn't as bad as some that have already gone like Steven or Pauline.
August 26, 201410 yr Kimberly was AWFUL (mostly). She was actually my favourite for maybe a week or so because she did seem very clever and it was great how she sassed Marlon when he was leering over her, but that soon faded and she was totally gone by the time Steven got to her. Ultimately, she was a total waste of a housemate.

August 26, 201410 yr I think I said throughout the whole series how I feel about Helen, all I'll say now is at least she had a personality and contributed to the series, unlike many HMs this series.
