Ok, so I'm pinning my colours to a show I'm fairly ambivalent about this year but so far I'm appreciating Bercow. She is a woman of contradictions - married to a tory but is a socialist. Somewhat of a loose cannon but is that a bad thing?

But who knows what she is really like because there is NO BLOODY LIVE FEED!

Loving her also, hoping for some decent conversation in there, don't think she will put up with any shite.

I'm glad she's stuck two fingers up to the hypocritical, pompous misogynists who've bemoaned the fact that she's doing this.

Just because her husband is the speaker of the house of commons, she can't do Celebrity Big Brother?

It's absolutely nothing to do with her husband.

Parliament is in recess & this will be over long before they return to work & even if parliament wasn't in recess, I don't see an issue.

It was OK for George Galloway to do Celeb BB whilst working as a serving MP during parliamentary time, but it's not OK for Mrs Bercow to do it & she's not even an MP?

Am going to nail my colours early this year, she is the most interesting of all HM's by far at this stage.

Doesn't bother me that she's my MP's wife and doing this - I thought we'd moved on from the kept wife thing.

I like her.

I cheered when she appeared. Quite loudly. Of course she may turn out to be awful, but I liked her first five minutes, which is something positive.

I despaired when Kerry put her up, but when they announced it was vote to save, I was much more optimistic, because Sally illicits emotion in people, unlike Bobby who is just handsome & very dull.

Current eviction odds on Betfair

Sally 4/7
Bobby 13/8
Kerry 15/1

Never underestimate the power of the OMGHWFI factor

I'm not sure she'll have the support base outside this forum.

I expect a lot of Amy's fans will vote for Bobby simply to keep the chances of a romance between them alive.

If Sally goes, there's no one really worth watching for. We need at least ONE intelligent woman in there!

I knew I should have kept my early affiliation quiet - my support is the kiss of death

But if Bobby goes she'll always have a substitute in the person of Lewis Walcott

Sally need to stay + she's in there for a good charity cause, the rest are greedy.

She did not do herself any favours tonight; natural to be upset but perhaps a little ungracious. I expected a more stoic response.

She's probably toast

Betfair

Sally 40/85
Bobby 9/5
Kerry 27/1

As for the talking about other HMs behind their back Sally is doing no worse than Bobby but he's getting away with it for two reasons

1. Sally is well-spoken and can string an intelligent sentence together which in the world of BB means she is the spawn of Satan

2. Bobby is making use of the OMGHWFI factor

I think it's great that Sally has left the house with her head held high, and is already planning/hoping to take part in other reality shows. Now that she is a little more known I think the public will warm more towards her, so if she were to take part in IACGMOOH she could go far - if the bugs don't get to her first.
