No but thank goodness he is. Freddie needs someone to support him he has no one in the house at all who seems to like him. He is on his own in there it seems.

I cannot believe he had nine votes though Awwww poor Freddie.”

Freddie doesn't seem to have many allies in the house, 9 votes is a lot!!

Well he has our support so let's get voting to keep him in, one in the eye to them indeed, as you say.

The others don't realize that Freddie is tougher than he looks. They think he has had a cushy life but they should try public school and Oxford - he is used to being bullied. None of them is clever enough to really get to him.

Loving Freddie hope Cairon gets the boot on Friday.

I think thinks could have been a lot worse - I was really dreading that it might be him v Angel or Marcus this week. He has a great chance of surviving against Cairon and imagine how the house is going to react when he is saved again.

I think Freddie could survive being up against most of the other hms although I expect he will believe that he will be the one shown the door this week.

That will make him being kept in even sweeter because it's bound to give him a boost against the unfair treatment he is getting in the house.

It does beggar belief when hms single Freddie out instead of agressive and spiteful people like Lisa and Charlie. But there you go They're a bit thick on the whole so can't relate to Freddie's intelligence. That and they can't get past their resentment of his comfortable background and the fact that he doesn't follow the herd like the other sheep.

Freddie is a standout character and for that alone the others will target him.

He will keep on thwarting their plans to get him out hopefully - the best revenge of all.

And it doesn't matter a fig if you don't have many allies in the house as long as the public like you, that's what really counts.

Freddie HAS to stay to wind the others up and keep some entertainment in the show.

Would rather see Lisa , Charlie or Kris get the boot but Cairon will do for a start. Freddie may keep getting the most noms but I'm thinking it might only take 3 noms for someone lke Lisa to be in the mix as well next week as Cairon is up with just 4.

Here's hoping .

My feelings exactly they see him a person who has had life of ease.

Come on Freddie keep cool as always.

I agree must stay.

The only trouble is, if he keeps being nominated, week after week, that's going to have an effect on him. Can you imagine living in a house, with a bunch of people who clearly don;t 'get' you? It can't be good for the soul. And you know something else? I don't think anyone in that house, with the exception possibly of Angel & Marcus, are clever enough to realise that he's being saved in the public vote because people LIKE him, rather than not liking whoever he's up against.

I think he will become clinically fed-up but not depressed...reading about his school experiences I guess he's really used to being treated shabbily, and it's so much worse if it's your own sort than these inverted snobs...One thing is for certain in my mind, he's no 'walker'...he will stick it out however lonely he feels.

I agree with you totally. I also think that if the intense bullying of Freddie continues he will become the hero of the show.

I guess that's what I was trying to say! The problem is - a 'fed up' Freddie might become a heck of a lot less entertaining for the general Big Brother viewing public, and make him more vulnerable at eviction time. At the moment, he has a lot of people on his side, who normally would be waiting to evict him - he's attracting a lot of support because of the way he is dealing with all the hassle he's getting. If it starts to wear him down, will he still be able to count on their support?

I think you are right. Everything depends upon BB and what they do next or within the next few moves. A bit further down the line they need to introduce a little chum for Freddie...there must be another 'posh' - how I hate that word but you know what I mean - person who can give him some support...perhaps someone slightly older...

I think the friendship between Freddie and Marcus has huge potential, and if either of them are thinking about the game, they'll see that as well. For Freddie, it gives him a strong ally, someone who'll fight his corner when the others have the pixies and are entertaining themselves by playing games, whilst Marcus gets a loyal friend, who is popular on the outside.

I agree for me the three hms I like at the moment are Freddie, Marcus and Angel. The rest of them can go ...............

It's interesting how if you come from a certain background, people tend to assume that nothing bad has ever happened to you and you've had a life of ease. I'm not saying it's as bad as living on the streets or something, but everything's relative. Material possessions don't automatically result in blissful happiness.

You are so right the blissful happiness. I know many who are extremely well off have been to public/boarding school and have not had it easy at all.

I think this is inverted snobbery on the part of some though.

I would love Rex to come into the house and befriend Freddie that would be hilarious.

Definitely inverted snobbery in action!

I was wondering how Rex would fit in to this years' bunch - I would hope he'd stick up for Freddie too, but then he did have that playful/malicious (depending on your viewpoint) streak, so he might have joined in. I'm sure he'd think Kris was an idiot though

I wonder, I don't think he would because he and Freddie might just set up their own group

I dont think Rex and Freddie would get on at all. Rex - or rather, Rex's father - might have had money and he might have gone to a fee-paying school but he wasn't in the same class as Freddie. Rex is a north London clubber who likes to think he is 'hip' or whatever the saying is now. Freddie is Oxford educated and would be laughed at on the London scene for being eccentric, which is a compliment elsewhere but not cool in London. Rex would be equally rotten to Freddie.

Rex was very much 'new money', whilst Freddie is most definitely 'old money', so their backgrounds are hugely different. Rex, I think, would have been far friendlier with Kris than Freddie.

Exactly my thinking......now Freddie and Jonty BB8....that's a class match...and that's an interesting thought.
