I personally think they're great, but my friends and family cannot stand them because of their arrogance.
You can say they aren't arrogant and it's just confidence but let's face it, some of the things that, Karissa in particular, is saying are not doing them any favours with the public.
"If we face eviction the public will definitely save us" is just one example..
When watching I find my family tutting and rolling their eyes at what they say in the diary room, quite the contrary to how they love Natalie and everything she says and does. Clearly they haven't picked up on her sly game playing as they focus on the arrogant comments coming from the twins.
They are obviously intelligent but I don't think they're thinking about what they say and how it may appear to most viewers.
(Yes I'm aware that my friends and family do not represent the public as a whole, but I haven't seen much support for the twins anywhere other than here..)

It's just a cultural thing - from what I've noticed, people in the UK aren't as open braggarts as we in the West are.
Maybe they are just "being themselves".
They have had and will have some memorable moments but that's all it will amount to.
There is no way they will even reach the final ahead of Natalie, Denise, Gareth, Frankie and possibly Romeo.
I find the refreshingly honest! Some other housemates think they themselves are refreshingly honest but they are being a bit weasly and dishonest IMO!
'You' in the West? I think the UK is in the West, too. Typical American lacking knowledge of the rest of the world.
I'd really hate them to leave with boos
I agree, being a yank myself, this is normal competitive behavior for us.
Fiiiirstttllyyy - I'm Canadian! lol
And I personally refer to anything/anywhere EAST of the Atlantic Ocean as well, the East!
Exactly! That's why I don't see it as a big deal at allll.
I like them a lot, but unfortunately somebody like Frankie is more likely to win as he is popular with the young girl voters.
But how is saying things like 'if we're up for eviction we'll be saved' competitive behaviour? How does that help one to win any type of competition? E.g., if I'm running the 100 metres and I say 'I'm going to win this thing, guaranteed', it doesn't help me win, imo.
Note: I don't mind the twins at all really.
That didn't get Jedward the win!
These girls are playing the game. We didn't hear the whole conversation but I bet what they said is part of their plan. They know their up next. I just think they want to be up with Nicola.
I really hope they get to the final as they deserve to.
When they first came in I thought they were boring and had nothing to say for themselves.
How wrong I was.Lol.
