From watching Bit on the Side i have a bad feeling Georgina will be evicted, i will be ever so disappointed if this happens. Evelyn has to be the one to go tomorrow night.

I'm honestly baffled by the contempt towards Evelyn online. The only dodgy moment I can recall is her part in the Natalie/Laura confrontation, but even then, Ryan came across far worse and yet he seemed to emerge from the situation unscathed. Bar that, she comes across quite endearing and funny (her and Laura's little interactions are always sweet to witness), plus takes everything in her stride (nominations, the task yesterday). The suggestion that she should go over Georgina - who has been nothing but hypocritical, mean, and utterly joyless for the past two weeks or so - is absurd to me. It's not even a case of her being so horrible and unreasonable that it can be perceived as entertainment, as I often thought with Natalie. In fact, her and Jackson's showmance is actually ruining the series for me.

I agree with everything you've said about Evelyn, but I disagree about the Georgina stuff. Although she does seem controlling, but I think that's more down to the position they're in (confined space, 24/7 etc...) more than that being her, herself. Jackson & Georgina's relationship is the first time I've ever thought "this is genuine and more than just a showmance".

This is everything I feel put perfectly. I actually find Georgina very unwatchable and she's ruining the show when her and Jackson are on. It's a brilliant series but I switch off whenever she comes on screen. I wish she could be fierce and bitchy and entertaining with her moodiness but she doesn't own it, has very little drive behind her and is acting totally annoyingly everytime she appears.

 

But even away from her own infuriating personality traits, she needs to go for the showmance alone.

Perhaps 'showmance' was the wrong word, because I do think there is genuine attraction there (or at least WAS, I'm not entirely convinced Georgina is all that enamoured with him following the son revelation). And I agree with you re the environment to some extent. She does garner some sympathy from me, since she's obviously horribly insecure and I imagine being in such a confined space only amplifies that. However, everyone is insecure at some point; it's not an excuse to retaliate by being horribly possessive and rude (the 'stupid cow' line to Evelyn was just unprovoked nastiness). I'd be more willing to excuse her behaviour if she was a young lass, but she's 26! Even before the Jackson relationship kicked off, she was still a bit mardy, but everyone was willing to overlook it since the comments were directed at the universally-loathed Marco. I just don't think she's a particularly nice person.

Ha, this! Natalie was vile but completely unapologetic with it and at least acknowledged that the other housemates disliked her. Georgina doesn't possess that self-awareness, based on her reaction to being nominated, going on as far as to attributing all the blame to her relationship with Jackson rather than her own actions.

I don't hate Evelyn, I just find her so irrelevant and bland. I wouldn't notice or care if she went, whereas the other 3 would be losess imo. It's understandable in that confined space, as Jonjo said, that Georgina would act like that. I hate that it's her getting the flack, I bet the public will lap Jackson up :rolleyes: She is a bit jealou and controlling but I think the confined space helps neither of them. As she said the other night, if it was outside she'd just have to deal with Evelyn now and again, when you're insecure like that and you have that person there 24/7 it's going to be harder. Jackson just makes me cringe, but I do agree that their romance seems actually real because of its flaws. You can tell they actually care about each other because of how they affect each other with the things they do.

ALEX NOT JUST SPEAKING BUT SHOUTING :o THank god I was sat down for that.

STOP!!! ASKING!!! ME!!!

I think imo Sam comes of worse during that argument Sam started it for no reason. Alex I dont think he purposely wanted a argument unlike Sam. Hughie tho :heart:

 

I am glad Alex told the Truth Tea to Sam after the argument tho

Yeah. Was Sam actually being serious? What a complete and utter MESS he was during that whole thing! :\

Sam has been more than happy to gang up on everyone when he's had numbers on his side :lol: He just goes with the flow and he seems to have no idea when it turns against him and he has to act for himself!

This is not particularly defending him cos I really don't like him but Sam was quite clearly VERY VERY drunk which is why he was such a mess.

This may finally start to show the housemates what Sam is really like as they have appeared oblivious until now. Finally, Alex has dome something half interesting.

Drunk Jackson is severe cringe.

 

I don't know who I want to go out of Evelyn or Georgina. I like Evelyn more than Georgina but Georgina generally gives more entertainment.

Hughie and Jackson both irritate me so much anytime they are on screen, in the 4 years I've watched civilian BB they would both be in my bottom 5 of all-time at the moment. The fact they are in the top 5 favourites to win, Hughie being favourite, absolutely astounds me.

 

Want Georgina to stay but there's zero chance of it, would've liked Jayne to go out of the 4 as I think she peaked a week or two ago.

Jackson in general is complete cringe. I think he'll do well though, don't think he'll win but I think he'll be top 4. The public lap up his sort of housemate.

 

Gutted for Georgina :( But it was so obvious.

I think people forget how young Georgina and Evelyn both are, 21 and 20 I believe, as they do act so much older most of the time. Quite uncomfortable and sad to see them both so distraught this evening, it annoys me that the rent-a-mob crowd feel the need to boo absolutely everyone.

I can see why people don't like Georgina and accept that, Evelyn hasn't really done anything - I just wanted her to go most becase she's really boring. I hate that they feel the need to boo every single housemate nowadays, I miss the days of "Get Grace Out!" when you knew for sure that someone was hated.

Georgina's 26 though, which makes her behaviour all the more ridiculous. I'm glad she's gone, but I agree, that was uncomfortable to watch.

Ah right my mistake!

 

I think she came across fantastically in the interview, such a difference to Marco and Natalie. I think in another series she'd have gone much further but the circumstances of this series ultimately led to her downfall.

I knew it was coming but I'm gutted at that result. Georgina definitely did have a bad week but if there wasn't those relationship struggles, she would have been an amazing housemate. I do think she brought something different to what we've seen before and I think she is a really sweet person underneath it all.

 

It was a shame to see both Georgina and Evelyn's reactions to being in the Bottom 2, it enforces the fact that these are real people and it must be horrible to be in that situation. Obviously social media people are normally idiots anyway but there were quite a few people on Twitter when I searched #bbuk that were saying Evelyn's panic attack was attention-seeking and fake. :rolleyes:

 

On a side note, I've given up watching BOTS aside from on Fridays. It's just become a waste of time, especially when they keep wheeling out the likes of Jake Quickenden, that one from Union J, Vogue Williams and random TOWIE extras every week and letting them cling on to the tiniest bit of relevance they may have. I liked seeing and hearing the opinions of old Big Brother housemates so I don't get why they're only having one per week (aside from Nikki Grahame)
