Yep. I think LukeA was really taken aback by the constant nastiness of some hms which must have dampened his ability to have fun.

Such a pity that there were so many unpleasant characters in there for much of this series.

Loved Jonty on bbots last night, a true eccentric lol

And what a good judge of character too, wanting LukeA to win
I so agree. It`s obvious that Luke is someone who likes to have a laugh, but his time in there has been so draining emotionally. It`s ironic the person who they put in to unite the house, Becky, ended up dividing it even more.

I always knew Jonty was a good egg

Yes, and ironically it might make it easier that Conor has pinched half the prize money. £100,000 is a huge amount to win or lose but £50,000 is only, ahem, half as much.
Most of the time the money thing isn`t in my mind, and I`ll think in a similar way to this. Now and again though, something will remind me and I`ll just think why has someone so undeserving got so much money??

I do not think it will affect Deana diehards, just the floater voters, whom she picked up over the weeks. They are the ones she will face the backlash from. It still is not too late for her. If she can remain calm and not antagonise people, she will be ok. I think the problem, well basically for me, is that she was relishing Luke S discomfort.
I have to be honest, if that was Adam or even Luke A, I would not have liked it either, I just think losing the chance of 50 grand, was punishment enough for anybody, no need to continue to rub his nose in it.

BTW, I dislike Luke S.
I agree, I haven't been impressed with her behavior over the past few days, I didn't like the way she treated Luke S. However, perceptions can change over the course of a few episodes and I don't think it will effect her hardcore supporters. Before, I only wanted him to make the final but now I really want Luke A to win as it seems more likely to happen now.

He is now the bookies favourite to win:

Just seen that - I cannot decide if it is good or bad as this might make people vote against him. Hopefully, it is just because Deana is up for eviction

That is great hula.
However, we must not be complacent, we must all vote for him to win. I do hope he does, I would love for him to be able to pay for the operation, he so badly wants, but more than that, Luke A winning, will hopefully give him the acceptance he has wanted for so long and so deserves.

Does seem a double edged sword jean, lol. To be honest, the top 3 are in with a chance.

i think so too I've noticed a lot of threads trying to undermine his popularity by suggesting he is only in the running to win because of transgender status which can only be a good thing, as he is obviously a threat to their favourite .

People seem to say he is going for the sympathy vote: he has barely mentioned it in 10 weeks!!!

It`s utterly ridiculous to think that we could choose to like someone just for that reason I want him to win because he is kind, funny, considerate, genuine, sensitive and easy on the eye Nothing to do with anything else Whatever makes other people sleep at night I suppose

I'm glad you said that, I was beginning to think it was just me and I'd missed all the whining he was doing about wanting to be accepted.

Wouldn't have made much difference to how I felt about Luke though, he simply comes across as a good guy - that clip of him in the chicken suit grabbing Deana when she was saved too is brilliant. I also love the way when Deana is doing one of her praying sessions for herself, Adam and Luke he STILL has to add the 'A' - as if anyone could get mixed up as to which Luke she wanted to be saved.

'Sympathy vote' and 'sympathy card' are universal forum-speak for 'housemate I don't want to win who has had a bit of a tough time'.

Very well put.

Party at Luke's hotel on MOnday:

Luke Anderson‏@LukeA_BB

So #LAarmy for any of you who can't get tickets or can't get down to London, The Beaufort Park Hotel is the place to be that night xx
That sounds fun.

Well done Luke A fans - we were still on thread one when I was here last Saturday. How can you talk so much? lol Clearly a sign that Luke A is still gathering fans as I notice some new additins - hello and welcome to you all.

I'm so pleased Luke has a week off from eviction and is now in the final.

I've always liked Deana, but I'm concerned she may have lost a few fans this week after Connor left.

Double eviction - I'm pretty sure Ashleigh is gone, but after that I can't call it.

Hi Claire! Yes those odds are great to see after all he's had to put up with in the house and all we've had to do to support him. Deana's potential eviction might have some sway on the bookies but I don't think her behaviour this week will have gone down well with the floating voters.

Luke on the other hand has got through the worst and making the most of his last week. His forgive and forget attitude will make him seem a more worthy winner.

I'm sure they'll be having a blast at the Beaufort Park!

I just looked up the betting odds and I'm quite shocked. I thought Deana's would have moved unfavourably after her coming out of her shell and the negative BBBOTS comments the last couple of nights. I had no idea where Scott would be as he's not been up for eviction before, but it looks like Deana's fans will remain loyal (good) and Ashleigh and Scott will depart tomorrow.

I preferred FB voting as I could decide what I could afford and then use all those credits. I'm going to have to count my phone calls to £20 ish worth after tomorrow, but who cares if I go over by a tenner or so! lol He's worth every penny!

LukeA would be such a wonderful BB winner - not just nice, but funny, complex attractive and probably the most genuine BB hm ever to enter that house

I've sent 5 each to Adam and Deana for Luke A's sake as they're a part of him, but when it comes to the final I'm Luke A all the way.

The number of Deana threads on the front page of the main forum is worse than the other week when someone resurrected 14 old Luke A threads on eviction day. It's all a bit tedious and boring.

I've voted for Adam - Deana's fan base is bigger and I think Adam needs my votes more. After that, they're all for LukeA.
