Yeah im a big one for polls and stats

Maybe your next job could be the most hated BB housemates?

Great job BTW

just read this list backwards....

Thnaks for the list cheeks, it's fantastic

I'm glad that many of my favourite HMs were rated highly, it's just shame that the voting public didn't agree

Anyway, I think we can safely say that this is the definitive popularity poll......until BB6 of course!

Hi Darling (feels a bit odd calling a stranger darling - I hope you're male!).
Anyway, I've got voting numbers for every eviction for every series. You could work out from that the total money received from phone votes (10p per vote for series 1 and 25p for all the others).
I don't want to hijack Cheeks' thread so I'll wait to see what he/she says (think it's a he based on the 'shooting pool' quote but playing it safe) before posting anything off topic. Or I could start a new thread?

Sorry Jasoninuk, I am a girl. But it is my name, so no-one should get funny ideas - unless they're SD, and really really want to, of course.

I know what you mean about cheeks thread. But why not start a new one. Fascinating BB stats or something like that would be a good title. I'd love to know how much people spent on votes by series, but there are loads of other interesting things.

For instance, what was the highest money raised in an eviction vote. I reckon Adelle and Jade....... or Alex/Spencer perhaps.....?

Just for ease of reference, the final placings of Cheeks' excellent, thought-provoking poll goes like this:



1. Brian
2. Anna
3. Helen
4. Victor
5. Jon
6. Dan
7. Kate

i like everyone in the top 15!

When people pay for statistics they tend to insist that the sample is genuinely representative and statistically significant. The BARB figures are an example. Cheeks did a great job, but I doubt that he would claim to have done that sort of research on his 49 respondents. :sleep:

series ranking by average score per housemate;

1 BB2 442
2 BB5 365
3 BB1 294
4 BB4 250
5 BB3 246

so basically bb2 ie brian h and dean was the only year thats top 3 order was the same as thoses voted final 3!

Good point.

The most obviously strange scoring is BB5 - bearing in mind it only ended just over a month ago with Nadia winning by a massive margin!

Cheeks - just out of interest - did you count the incomplete votes (i.e. the people only giving their top 10 or people who duplicated housemates names)?

I counted top 10's but the people who entered their top5,top3 etc were basically wasting their time.When people accidently duplicated housemates names I only counted the higher position.The lower position was basically null and void

I was pleased that BB5 wasn't the highest ranking series by the way.I think it shows that the people who participated had a better knowledge of BB than some people gave them credit for.Especially when you consider that BB2 was the top series.This must mean that some of us have memories that stretch back 3 years!

True, although I was surprised that BB3 was last. Surely those HMs were more entertaining than BB4?!

I would say it shows that BB4 has mainly middle ground housemates, and not many hated characters.

BB2 was by far the best series but Dean in the top 10????

I am 100% sure that if he was in bb4 he would have been closer to the end of the list.

I am 100% sure that if he wasn't on this forum he would have been closer to the end of the list!
No offence Dean!

I did half jokingly suggest that Deans prescence on the forum might influence voting but I'm as guilty as anyone because I gave him a good ranking myself!

BB3 was my favourite BB but it wasn't down to the housemates being likeable characters.I felt the same about this years BB after 1 week.This years BB had the potential to be the best but it lost impetus after fightnight.It sort of limped to the finish.I also thought that they used the bedsit too early and it would have been more effective if they had used it later in the series

To come up with a favourite I would have to say that it depends on the criteria.

I really have to say that I feel BB4 was my favourite house and my favourite for its new ideas and twists and the tasks. My least favourite is BB5.

As far as the housemates go, my faves are definitely the BB5 bunch. My least favourite are BB3.

So, put the BB5 housemates into the BB4 house and give them the same tasks and twists and it would have been my all-time favourite (I reckon).

Not that I'm saying that the other BBs weren't enjoyable because they all were for different reasons.

I don't think it was fair to omit the votes of those who only included a top 5 - maybe they only actually liked 5 of the housemates. That's all I could honestly say I liked for instance.

And while noting the results of this poll, we should bear in mind that BB2 was actually the least successful series in terms of viewers and votes.

But, of course, that's on the evidence of interest from the population at large, rather than a small survey on this site.

I think we have to accept we'll only ever be able to have a small survey on this site.The number is always going to be a small percentage of everyone who watches BB

That's true.

too much time on my hands.I've combined the results of this poll and the results of cwej's poll to come up with the following set of results:

Cheeks, well done. Interesting to see the names that made the top 10.
