... just like it was unprofessional of Stella in that week when Baggs was PM when implied that the other team should have won as a way to make a dig at him back in the house, but IIRC that seemed to go down pretty well on this forum....
At least it's getting interesting now though, eh. It's getting like Big Brother in here. |

Perhaps the other candidates are taking the personal route with her because they know that she is an excellent businesswoman and therefore feel they need to undermine her by bringing her 'unwelcoming', 'cold' and 'wooden' side to Sir Alan's attention. Stella is perfectly right in the sense that its a competition and that you're not there to make friends. Biggest thing in my mind is that it took for Stella to be part of a losing team and in the boardroom for the other contestants to bring that side of her to light. Very much doubt they'd complain if they were on the winning side with her.

to the OP: Do you always follow the crowd or don't you believe that people can feel threatened by others and therefore have to put their competition down? Stella has blown the bimbos (apart from Joanna) out of the water tonight and yet you still have to ask this question.

I just loved it when Chris described her as smug and superior. Usually that decription is used when you just can't attack someone who is above you or out of your reach. Hopefully all this bubbling jealousy will throw them all off their games.
As Stella seems to keep a cool head in these situations. I'd rather be a corporate hard-ass than a spiteful, envious bee-atch.

Stella is out to win and relies on herself. Liz needs validation and support from others, hence her undermining of Stella in the last 2 minutes of the show.

I'm going to take the fact those living with her deem her to be a bitch as evidence enough that she is a bit.
She comes across as one on screen, doesn't like to hear she is wrong but happy enough to dish out the abuse to put someone else down or save her own skin=bitch in my eyes. |

If Joanna and Stella are such a good team (a) why did Joanna only hug Liz on leaving the boardroom tonight and (b) why did she not defend her when Chris said she was smug or when Liz attacked her at the end?
Strangely enough, when Stella was being bitchy towards Stuart the other week people were applauding Ah well, at least Stuart has one advantage for not looking like a model (or a female one at that)

It just seems like another case of attack the pretty girl on the reality show as so often happens but support the slightly attractive but overall more dowdy competitor.
It's getting like Big Brother in here. And FWIW, Stella is hardly dowdy. I think she's very naturally pretty. |

Yeah, it is obvious that Stella is not liked at all in the house. Unlike Laura, she can´t even relax in the house (as noted at the opening segment of the episode).
Strangely enough, when Stella was being bitchy towards Stuart the other week people were applauding Ah well, at least Stuart has one advantage for not looking like a model (or a female one at that) ![]() I do think this idea that the house are collectively threatened of Stella and are also jealous of her is absolutely ridicilious though and I also think she does come across as unlikeable and does rub people up the wrong way. I also posed the question about Joanna as I really don't see that Joanna has anything especially close with Stella. Joanna works well with everyone and seemed closer to Liz tonight. |

I find it odd that people are saying Joanne is supportive of Stella rather than Liz. Was it not Liz that Joanne hugged before heading back to the house? I would take that as evidence that Liz is more liked in the house than Stella. We see very little footage of what goes on in the house and can only guess at what has been going on by interpreting the body language of contestants and analysing the comments they make to each other during tasks. Let's not forget that they are living their own big brother in that house all be it for a much shorter time. Tempers will fray at times.

I really like Stella and Liz -at the end of this week's eppie though it was Liz that I lost a bit of respect for. What happens in the boardroom should stay there in my opinion, it was not very professional of Liz to keep making a point about what was said in there and make so painfully obvious that she would rather Laura stay.

![]() People like the underdog though, so Liz will be probably be burned at the stake (like Katie) when she comes on You´re Fired |

If you are the sort to undermine those who threaten you, surely they should undermine Liz or Joanna? |

I don't care who is more liked by the candidates.
Laura was clearly well liked by the others but was a completely incompetent candidate. |

As Stella seems to keep a cool head in these situations.
