Parallel Reality

12 | Arthur “Well don’t walk too far that way, or you’ll fall off the edge” Average rate score: 4.21 Arthur is a 24 year from Dunford, near Exeter. He was the first housemate to enter the house this year. In his VT, he described himself as having had a ‘wild’ childhood, and as the heir to his family’s large mansion. He’s featured on TV before, on a reality show called ‘The F****** Fulfords’, and I’m pretty sure I’ve seen them before on something like ‘How Clean Is Your House’ too :lol: or something similar when I was younger. I seem to recall his twin sister reading loads of books etc and he spent most of his time chewing on lego blocks and his dad was like “OH, LEAVE EVERYTHING TO THE BOYYY!” Anyway... Arthur created a HUGE impression in both the house, and on the viewers. His moments included an argument with Imran about whether someone should claim benefits or not (when they don’t need to); offering dust to a load of hungry housemates; an argument with Sukhvinder and Imran about the world not being flat :lol:, also with Kayleigh with her constant impressions of him “having noooo money”. He also trashed the kitchen a few occasions. It is thought Arthur had walked from the show, but not much is known about this, and whether he was possibly removed instead for unknown reasons. Either way, he completely dominated the first week of the show, proving he doesn’t adhere to regulations or social rules; probably one of the reasons he’s been rated fairly well (all things considered) here!

Yeah, Paul is awful. 38? But acts 8.

This series was a complete mess. It had some nice housemates in there, but a particularly awful group of 'Insider' housemates led by the grim reaper herself... Helen Wood. I don't think we've ever had anyone coming close to being THAT awful on BB, and C5 invited her BACK a year later, :puke: where she was just as bad. Her treatment of Jale was absolutely horrific, and then she joined their crew (out of fear). My favourites were Toya and Matthew - The latter for actually standing up to Helen and referring to her 'saggy tits' :lol: :lol: - They both definitely went too early, and it was a real blow to the series losing them both early on and I kind of gave up on the series after they left. I liked Ashleigh, Chris and Christopher too, and Danielle was a complete hot mess. :lol: :lol: Steven was AWFUL. Pauline was awful. Kimbot was awful (I snorted when reading your comments about her, Liam :lol:), Winston was awful. Ash was horrific and Helen was THE WORST. (EDIT: Oh and Marlon - I forgot about him. Also awful.) I think Tamara went too soon (but we say that about everyone who went out first :lol:) Also, the three late entrants were a bit odd too, Pav and Biannca... I literally think we saw Biannca's boobs more than her face. And someone called Zoe according to Wikipedia... I don't remember her AT ALL.

True, but he was exceptionally awful. ;) It would be cool if they did a BB with all the housemates who were evicted first were put back in. Beinazir, I'm here for you. :lol:

Spot on. She's so naive though (Which isn't always a bad thing, I can't imagine her coming off worse than him in this situation)

Agreed, this was a very good series! Jemima and Dan's "MY DAUGHTER DIED IN MY ARMS" "BUT SHE'S NOT DEAD, SHE'S ALIVE!!" Is one of my favourite moments from any C5 series :lol: - I really liked Charlie - she wasn't the biggest character in there but I felt like she had a lot of insecurities and has had a really tough time in her life (And I'm not just talking about having Jackie as a parent :lol: ) - It was awful to watch nearly all the housemates' friends and family slate her in that task. It was completely unwarranted IMO but it was great to see her outlast Sophie, and make the final (you can tell she didn't expect it) My favourites from that series were obvs Gina and Charlie - And my least favourites were Daley, Hazel, Jack and Joe and Sallie. Dan was okay but was wayyyy overrated and I'm glad he went early on. Couldn't deal with anymore Detective Dan "I knew it"s. Wolfy's arrogance hitting a tumble was amazing. Jack and Joe were absolutely horrific. Probably the worst twins/siblings to ever go in the house :puke2: I have no idea why the production team loved them so much.

=13 | Simone “Which one’s Charlotte again?” Average rate score: 3.86 Oh god. Where do I start with this one. :lol: Simone was there on launch night competing with Andrew, Sue and Tom to be the peoples’ housemate. She got the fewest votes to enter but later returned as a Second Chance Housemate. Outside of the house, she's an unemployed mother-of-three (though occasionally does glamour modelling) and has stripped down to her underwear in the Job Centre and also had a stint in prison for an attack previously, in her home town of Stockton-On-Tees. She had already formed a close friendship with Sue (Susan Evans) before entering. Initially, she was fairly under the radar with her first moment being eating a bowl of crisps and drinking cider in bed, on her own, in the dark, at 3am. It prompted Emma to say on BOTS that three of the four housemates have lived up to what they’ve said (referring to Sam, Andrew & Sue). Now, I’m not sure if she heard that through the walls but shortly after, she started showing some erratic behaviour, namely towards Chanelle, trying to goad Chanelle into hitting her. She also had a few heated exchanges with Andrew, one of them calling Andrew out for only being bothered about the money. She said she didn’t need the money as her garden was worth £15k anyway. She initially seemed to want to be liked and accepted by her housemates, shoving bread between her bum cheeks and waddling around quacking. She gave up on trying to make friends pretty quickly, and after alienating pretty much the whole house, along with Sue – they spent most of their time getting trashed on the sofa, dragging most of their housemates. She was first to be targeted in The Hunt task, and was placed up for eviction along with Sue, Chanelle and Isabelle. She was evicted by a ghost :lol: and led away in a back door eviction. Sue was then evicted the following day. She reminded a lot of us Buzzjackers of the kind of housemate that might enter late in a C4 series. In her interview with Emma, she broke down and expressed how her erratic behaviour is sometimes a coping mechanism due to some hardships she’s been through in her life. She was also removed from the housemates’ panel at the final by security, for spitting in front of Andrew. It’s still a mystery to me how someone can appear so dumb, and calculated at the same time.

=13 | Mandy “I was 7 stone 6 and gave a great performance” Average rate score: 3.86 Mandy entered the house as a pair with her daughter, Charlotte. In their VT, Mandy said she thinks she has a better sex life than her daughter. She was also looking for love inside the Big Brother house. Mandy only lasted for a few days, before she was evicted by Tom over Imran, both of which received the fewest votes to save out of all the exiled housemates. As she was the first evicted, she didn’t spend long in the house – though in a task, it was revealed she had made a sex tape on VHS with her ex-partner that had done the rounds of her village. She also encouraged Lotan and Arthur to strip tease in Rose Cottage. She didn’t rate Tom’s reason for evicting her and her early eviction left Charlotte very upset. She later returned in the temptation task to give Charlotte some advice, and to let her know she wasn’t getting much air time. She’s almost universally been dubbed as “Randy Mandy” because of her openness about her sex life and sexual feelings. Embarrassing or a laugh, maybe she went too early...

15 | Sam *Loud kissing noises* Average rate score: 3.36 Sam is a 24 year old from near Manchester. His BB biography basically said he likes to go with the lads…. And that was pretty much it. He entered as part of the dating task and said he fancied Ellie most out of all the girls in the house. He wasn’t selected to enter but later returned as a Second Chance Housemate. He pursued a Big Brother romance (some would say showmance) with Ellie 1 day into entering the house, much to the bemusement of Ellie’s close friends; Kieran, Tom and Charlotte. Most of the time in the house was spent kissing and quibbling with Ellie. He was evicted by Andrew in the buzzer task, meaning that Andrew would win more of the prize fund. He remained high spirits, and was ‘a dead man walking’ until the Friday, when he was evicted, shortly followed by Chanelle and Ellie.

Yeah, she had like 2 good episodes in the house, but she's been pretty bad since leaving. She seems like a person who enjoys negative attention tbh.

These housemates are in the Top 15: Arthur | Chanelle | Charlotte | Deborah | Hannah | Imran | Isabelle | Kieran | Mandy | Raph | Sam | Simone | Sue | Sukhvinder | Tom The ranking so far: 16 | Rebecca (3.29) 17 | Savannah (2.79) 18 | Andrew (1.82) 19 | Joe (1.43) 20 | Ellie (1.21) 21 | Kayleigh (0.35) 22 | Lotan (-0.86)

16 | Rebecca “I AM SOMEBODY’S DAUGHTER!!” Average rate score: 3.29 Rebecca entered the house with Kieran, her employee from her private investigation company, based in Clitheroe. (Good luck with that now you’ve both featured on the TV). In her and Kieran’s VT, she revealed that they had ‘accidentally’ slept together once. Throughout her time in the house, she was very keen to make the point that she DID NOT FANCY KIERAN. It may have been down to editing, but it looked remarkably like she did, saying that Kieran’s ex Isabelle should not come into the house, and she was also upset when Marnie and Kieran got intimate. She doesn’t shy away from confrontation. One of her arguments was with Joe, a housemate she really didn’t take to, especially because he said that her smile irritated him. She was first nominated in week 2 along with Charlotte, Imran, Sukhvinder and Kayleigh and survived… Until the following week, when she was nominated again, and subsequently evicted. Since leaving the house, she’s probably been the most vocal of all housemates, trying to drag other housemates on Twitter and also talking about the things we didn’t see on camera, including a task that wasn't aired. Link provided if you fancy a read. She later returned for the wedding task, objecting to Kieran and Deborah’s wedding to give Kieran some advice, and to give Hannah some ‘home truths’. In addition. she had confrontation with also returning Chanelle, and backed Andrew up, telling him that he wasn’t a snake.

I hadn't planned on doing any more but I'd be happy to if people wanted more!

17 | Savannah *Insert boring story about Justin Bieber* Average rate score: 2.79 Savannah is a 26 year old singer, originally from Dublin but now splits her time between Dublin, LA and London. She entered the house as part of the dating task, along with Isabelle and Sam, and she was selected to be a housemate by Lotan, Chanelle and Kieran, along with Isabelle. Before she went in, she was quite vocal about her dislike for Tom particularly, though soon enough, she found herself absorbed in a friendship with Lotan and Tom. She flirted openly with Lotan, much to the bemusement of a very jealous Ellie. At the height of their friendship, Tom pushed Lotan’s crotch into Savannah who was under the duvet. Her take on it was that it was a joke and ‘boys were being boys’. Tom then received a warning for sexual intimidation. She also talked a bit about her friendship with Justin Bieber, and hinted at possible intimacies they have shared. A lot of viewers felt that Savannah was a huge disappointment as a housemate, though to be fair to her – she wasn’t in the house for long. Due to many of the housemates’ poor behaviour during Fight Night, Big Brother cancelled the nominations that week (Lotan, Isabelle, Tom and Hannah were up) and instead, put ALL the housemates up in a vote to evict. A twitter campaign started to save Isabelle and the target was Savannah. Savannah was evicted in week 4 with 36.32% of the public vote, against 14 other housemates. Ironically, she was about the only housemate who wasn’t involved in Fight Night, and was evicted after everyone was put up as a punishment! :lol: Close friends with: Kieran, Charlotte, Tom & Lotan Struggled to take to: Hannah, Chanelle & Isabelle JWE0RnZqxps Highest rate: cq(uavp)mergn (5) Lowest rate: Rob S~ & Parallel Reality (1)

18 | Andrew “HELL’S COMIN’” “I DON’T LIKE HERRRR” Average rate score: 1.82 Andrew is the first up of the Second Chance Housemates. He’s from Glasgow and initially failed to enter the house as the people’s housemate, with Tom having been chosen instead. He later entered with Simone and Sue, as well as blind date task reject Sam. The Second Chance Housemates could not win the show, but £15,000 was deducted from the prize fund, and the Second Chance Housemate who survived the longest would win this money. Andrew was a loud character in the house, throwing many a strop. My personal favourite moment was when he packed his belongings into bin bags and went to the diary room, walking past Charlotte who had tried to stop him, to return shortly later, with bin bags. He had an argument with Joe over how Joe had spoken to Raph. He, himself also tried to kiss Raph, but Raph fell to the floor in retaliation. In the buzzer task, he was the first housemate to press the buzzer once the klaxon had sounded, beating Hannah. He won the money from this task, and then chose to evict Sam, so also won the money for surviving the longest of all second chances. He lost popularity in the house after this, and in the wedding task, met lots of confrontation from Chanelle and Sukhvinder, referring to him as a snake. He was immune until the final, but was first to leave as he could not win. Effectively, he was a complete drama queen, in just about every situation he was involved in.

It's good! But definitely too late. Would have maybe liked a bit more energy in the video, like her being around her friends etc, as to me, that's what part of the song is about. Still some stunning visuals for a super song though!

I didn't enjoy the new Bradley Walsh gameshow that was on this evening. Would rather a new series of Babushka.

Yeah I agree, she wasn't particularly nasty, just made for awful viewing.

19 | Joe “I don’t give a s***” “You’re too intelligent for me, Raph” Average rate score: 1.43 Joe was the oldest housemate to enter this year, a club owner from London. Since he’s left the house, he’s reported to magazines that he was initially meant to enter as a pair with his 30 year old partner, but due to her ill health, she was unable to enter. He wasn’t the most likeable housemate – he did joke around occasionally, but he spent most of his time looking like he had just sucked a lemon, sat in the corner of the smoking area. He had arguments with Rebecca and Andrew, and also gave unwanted advice to to Raph and Arthur on a few occasions. In virtually every conversation, he’d say “I don’t give a ****” despite obviously being bothered. Joe was the fifth housemate to be evicted, having received the most votes to evict over Charlotte and Tom.

20 | Ellie “Hit mehh” “Chuffin’ ‘ell” “She ran at me like Usain Bolt” Average rate score: 1.21 Elleh was the second housemate to enter the house on launch night, after portraying a happy-go lucky and carefree girl that works at a trampoline park in her VT. Ellie is from Castleford and has previously been on reality show ‘Ibiza Weekender’. Despite being fairly well liked amongst her housemates, she was universally unpopular with virtually all Big Brother fans. She seemed to have swallowed a book about “how to be a reality show star” before she went in, becoming one of the more cliché contestants this year, blaming other girls for her jealousy and insecurities, starting showmances at every available opportunity, spending half the show talking rubbish in the diary room and crying over a man who didn't fancy her. Many fans have drawn comparison to Chloe, who won two years previously. She played a big part in Fight Night, goading Isabelle during the sticker task which caused Chanelle and Hannah to speak up. She was evicted in a double eviction just before the final week, which also claimed Chanelle. She said she saw the experience as a 'holiday' and never really cleaned up because Hannah and Deborah enjoyed doing it more. Hmph.

21 | Kayleigh “I would grab a sharp object, and f****** smack her with it” Average rate score: 0.35 Kayleigh was another housemate revealed prior to the series lauch. She described herself as ‘representing the hot, feisty women of Britain’. Kayleigh is from Port Talbot in South Wales and has previously been on Ex On The Beach. She was known in the house for having an explosive personality, and dropping the c-bomb every five minutes. She was a deputy mayor to Sukhvinder in the village task, which led to a fiery confrontation and she was replaced by Imran. She also borderline harassed Arthur, imitating his accent and getting people to gang up on him. Kayleigh didn’t do a lot in there other than argue and swear, and she was removed from the house after a particularly heated exchange with Chanelle. Whereby she made continuous threats of actual violence. After being ejected, she was dropped by her management label.

22 | Lotan “Why do you think I’m vain, princess?” Average rate score: -0.86 :lol: Lotan was one of six housemates revealed by Big Brother before the opening night. He’s 28 and from Braintree. He worked as a stripper and was part of Dreamboys, and is also Louis Spence’s nephew. Lotan, in the house got a lot of attention from Ellie, though he wasn’t particularly interested in her, preferring to talk about his ex. He appointed himself to be the alpha male of the house, and he was popular with house visitors Gemma Collins and Marnie. He received many warnings for aggressive and intimidating behaviour and spent most of this time trying to belittle other members outside of his clique. It all came to a head on Fight Night when he and Ellie teamed up to try and make Isabelle feel as uncomfortable as possible, which followed with Isabelle questioning his ability to be a good role model for his son, to which he threw a drink towards several people including Deborah, Isabelle, Hannah, Chanelle and Raph. After being in the diary room, he broke out of the diary room door and returned to the living room, ignoring Big Brother’s instructions. After confrontation from Deborah, he was marched back to the diary room with Tom, before breaking out again. He later ended the evening saying that he could mentally, physically and emotionally destroy Isabelle. He was removed from the house the next morning, and had nothing to say for his actions. Since leaving the house, he’s been dropped by his management company and lost his job, and also allegedly slept with Rebecca...
