I really, really don't want this thread to turn into a row or have to be taken off or anything like that.
Do you think that some portions of the country still hold a stigma towards people from Northern Ireland based on the past?

No. Not at all.
I was thinking more about Christopher. I feel that if he was English people may have found him a lot more relatable and got behind him to a greater extent.
It's only a theory, I'm not saying that there is or isn't.
Therefore, I guess Helen won because of the English vote
Ashleigh was just herself in fairness to her. No more, no less.
I wanted Christopher to win but Helen winning was the stuff of nightmares.
Kimberley had a b/f and blatantly cheated with Steven in front of him on TV and had sex on TV., Yet Hazel was hated for flirting with a guy in an ambiguous relationship and was then blamed when he tried to strangle her.
Noirin was stalked by several loonies in her show and guess who was blamed and vilified once again for sweet fook all, yes Noirin. What did she really do, Siavash had a g/f he embarrassed and humiliated and then played the victim but Noirin was blamed , when she chose a man she had previously said she still loved. I just think no Irish girl should go on BB..
Hazel deserves little sympathy. She pushed his buttons with the rubbing up against him, suggestive comments and straddling him when he had a hard-on. His actions that night were totally scum though. They both deserved flack.
Even though i didn't like her, I did feel sorry for Noirin. Marcus was delusional, Sree was mental and Siavash was a naughty boy. Not her fault.
People in Northern Ireland ( where both Ashleigh & Christopher are from) ARE allowed to vote.
Hazel was a very confident straight up woman sexually wise but that does not make her evil or deserving of hate, its 2014. or the humiliation BB piled on her on the show including the weeping ex on Bots. You have to have some perspective. I dont want to see any other Irish girls on BB,
Did you get my point about KImberley , she had sex on Tv but people just ignored it. Way "sluttier" than being suggestive.
Your theory doesn't work for Christopher. He's a Prod but only came third!
Helen ran her mouth for ten weeks and won. BB set it up for a Helen win, we said it last week and they succeeded in fooling people.
There's upfront and full on. I'll leave it up to you to pick what she was but I'd pick the latter. I know better than to watch that awful sideshow (perfect description of it coincidently). Horrible show. Crap panellists, crap "experts", crap fans, crap presenters. That aint even the worst of it, its the horrendous bias.
Daley got kicked out. The cowards way out. Would've been nice to see him get booed horrendously.
The only time anything contentious comes up is when nationalists and unionists disagree in these types of threads
Helen was the obvious underdog and won because she had the best story, ie villan to hero (in some people's eyes). Nothing to do with where Ashleigh comes from.
