  It's not their show, it's a show.

  Last year BOTS ripped into K & K and MM.
  
  Maybe they feel they had to atone.

  Speidi are pro's at the reality game, they are the best manipulators in the business. for me it isn't about where they come from, I'd sooner see Ryan win that them, just because they are a hideous pair and they have been offensive about us.

  Personally I find the American housemates a lot more entertaining and interesting.

  YA'LL Lambasting the likes of Rylan Claire and Trish for having a perfectly reasonable and normal conversation about people but you're hyping it into the biggest bitching session in the world
  
  I guarantee 90% of you would be doing the same thing
  
  Its easy to say no you wouldnt when your not in that environment but you would because its a normal and human thing to do!
  
  That doesnt make them nasty people!
  
  SPEIDI are obviously very difficult to live with. And all the girls have done is express how difficult its been!
  
  STOP bigging up st Speidi to be this angelic force because they are far from it
  
  And STOP looking for reasons to hate perfectly nice people

  
  
  
  That's about as spot on as spot on can possibly be. Well said.

  It's not like Spencer and Heidi should be surprised about the bitching, the way they acted when they first entered was pathetic. They are horrible people, jeez they were bitching as soon as they entered, they are just as bad.

  The British are not the underdogs. It's just that they don't have much personality in this edition of CBB.

  I'd like to think people judge a housemate on their qualities that they can bring entertainment wise rather than where that person comes from.

  They're in as a couple, of course they be a little more interesting, do ya think if they came in alone like the others either would be that interesting as well?

  It's obvious from the crowd that Speidi aren't favoured or adored. It's just forums like these where diverse and unexpected opinions are being expressed.
  
  The big characters in BB (even if they are American) are sometimes given twists focused around them, the producers are just desperate for ratings.
  
  However, in the past the anti-American sentiment on BOTS has been rather uncomfortable. They may be used and abused for entertainment purposes but they don't want us to actually vote them the winner.

  lol @ underdogs. Speidi have just about ZERO chance of winning this BB. The only reason they are still there is because BB made them immune to tonight's vote. Didn't you hear the gigantic boos they got whenever their name was mentioned live?

  Judge it based on this series and outside Paula, only Spencer and Heidi have been entertaining. The rest have brought nothing. The British housemates have actually been terrible.
