Not much. Louise is talking about loving a good scratch of her bottom and picking hairs? I think :S Alex, Tom and Faye are all laughing.

Louise is one strange girl - she is so vulgar and seems to think it is normal behaviour.

Lou likes scratchin her bum, Faye looks shocked, but laughs, Tom and Alex think it's hilarious and Tom agrees with Lou and camera keeps looking at aaron who looks horrified and facepalms at one point. She also likes picking hairs out of her bum!

I must admit, I’m more worries about Aaron not coming top of the vote tonight than actually going. Which I am sure is an odd way of looking at it.
In a way I wish they'd say hms safe 'in no particular order'. They've given too much away to the hms this year. If they did I bet they'd leave Aaron in the last 2 even if he had the most votes. I think I will just record the eviction show tonight and hide on here.

This week I think Aaron would love to be the first one saved.

It baffles me. She's 'normal' though isn't she. Maybe she thinks this is what normal girls chat about in front of a crowd?

Louise is very base. I really don't know anyone as vulgar as Louise or Jay and I occupy a fairly varied wold all told.

something like that wouldn't even cross my mind - let alone talk about it.

oh no!! do it again!!!
OK but I think I've forgotten half my arguments

Here I go.....

Faye - Although she's been tested once against Aaron I think the dynamics are so different this time around I'm not sure how much weight to give it. I think Harry being up too changes everything. In the previous vote Faye would have been most Aaron fans second choice, but I think Harry bumps her down to three for a lot of people. The Aaron/Faye relationship was viewed much more positively two weeks ago, over the last couple of weeks there will be a number of people that previously thought Faye was making Aaron's time better will have their doubts now. Her constant moods, on/off behaviour and demanding nature hasn't done her any favours. Then you add the Jem/Palmer family dynamic and a lot of Aaron fans who may have propped Faye's vote up un the past are going to turn off.

Harry - I agree week one is totally irrelevant to this weeks eviction, therefore I agree Harry is untested without the support of Aaron fans and viewer outrage. Harry seems to have decent number but they appear pretty soft to me. His support isn't nearly as vocal as his rivals, will they vote and vote hard, I'm not sure. He may pick up some votes from those who are angry at him being up this week, but that could be said for any of the four so that's a wash too. Both Harry and Faye will suffer from the fact it's just two weeks to the final and Aaron fans are going to be much less likely to want to keep one of his rivals in this time around.

Jay - He has the weakest numbers but the strongest organisation which may make all the difference. Again I agree he'll pick up the majority of the anti Aaron vote and what's left of Anton and Aden's support. I also think although slightly smaller Jay's support is much stronger than either Harry or Faye. People who like him REALLY like him, I'm not sure that could be said for either Faye or Harry. Therefore Jay has two major assets, organisation and enthusiasm, which are priceless in most elections.

So, like you I've talked myself around in circles and for the first time this year I don't know who'll be evicted.

It really is too close to call this time. I have been right every time so far, although wasn;t sure in week 3 between Aden and Heaven and we saw how close that one was!!! I just hope and pray Aaron is ok. I actually quite like all 4 of them but given the choice I would send Jay home (Oops I have gone all X Factor)

On the basis of the thread started asking Aaron fans to tell their gender and age, I did some analysis of the results yesterday. And I’m bringing it here as it is interesting for all us Aaron fans.

So looking at all the comments 97 fans that forward when I took my count 59 are female and 38 are male. So, in percentage terms 60% of Aaron fans are female and 40% male. So much less gender skewed than you would think.

The average fan overall is 38 but female fans average at 41 and male at 32. If you look in detail at the aged of the fans, then up until the age of 40, Aaron has an almost equal number of male and female fans which indicates there is almost zero gender preference among the target audience of the show.

The 60/40 split of female/male Aaron fans is almost totally explained by Aaron having nearly ten times more female than male fans in the over 50 age group. And females over 50 are his biggest single fan group accounting for nearly 20% of his total fanbase.

However, t is the over 50 males who are least likely to be watching the show at all so we should not be reading too much in to that. But it also means that over 80% of his fanbase is outside this group and is in fact pretty evenly spread across the genders and in equal proportions among the different age groups.

All of which means it is really very stupid to stereotype Aaron fans.

It would be interesting to see similar figures for other housemates such as Jay. It may well be that Aaron has a particularly unique fan base which crosses genders and ages.
Oh, super post

The gender ratio is very interesting for a male contestant, particularly one who's not "blokey".

Great job

I agree with all of that. I am thinking its between harry and faye. On TIBB Jay has pushed harry into last place and is neck and neck with Faye (although I am not sure if people are doing cookie clearing - but even if they are it shows a strong will to suceed). Its the lack of noise for harry that makes me think its him going. oh I really don't know. I hate surprises - I almost always watch the end of a film before I decide whether I am going to watch the film.

Kind of gets rid of the "ee iz fit" accusation doesn;t it? well unless all his male fans are gay but judging from this thread I would say not.

Hi fellow Aaron fans, could someone help me out with facebook voting? I don't use facebook but I noticed some of you creating accounts just to vote and thought I'd follow suit. Unfortunately I'm having some trouble. Twice I've created accounts now and when I go to buy credits (via paypal) I get automatically logged off and when I try to log back in again I find the account "temporarily locked". It then requests that I send them photos to prove my identity to unlock them. Why has this happened? What am I doing wrong? Is it because I'm trying to pay via paypal perhaps? What method of payment have others used successfully? Would appreciate any help. Thanks.

I am female, and I fancy him, but there's much more to Aaron than just his good looks - he is such an individual and a very interesting character, I also love his geekiness,and quick-witted humour.

Oh aaron is a very clever boy!!!

Interesting to hear what Tom has to say - clearly he will nominate Louise and one other next week given his comment about having to nominate one friend.

Oh bless him, aaron that is not tom, he thinks he is going to go tonight to boos.

I am with you as well - I so would!! however there is more to it than that and tbh as you get to know a hm their looks become irrelevant. Dale for example from BB9 - thought he was lovely looking on the first night by the second night I wanted to throw something at him and he became ugly to me.

Yeah I agree, again Everything seems to be indicating Faye or Harry, but if they call Jay I won't be surprised. I think the only surprise this week would be Aaron. His odds to win are coming in, odds to leave are still drifting and he's polling over 54%.

I wonder if it's actually as close as it appears to us trying to analyse it. Ireally wish C5 were realising voting figures this year

I use credit card and haven't had a problem at all. I don't have a paypal account though so wouldn't have a clue if that's your problem. sorry.
