What are your motives?

Don't you like to see people having a good go at doing the trials?

I just want to see a trial! She won't do it and we get to see nothing! She wants all this publicity and voters are jyst giving it to her.

I voted, but it wasn't for her!!

I have no idea who is voting but really is ruining the show.

It's the weak link in the show format. People like to vote for the person they think will fail. And in this case the one who's acting like a spoilt brat.

Next year they should change the rules so that if you do a trial the next day you can't do another.

I started off really liking Helen and thought she was funny. Now its just getting annoying.

Says a lot about the British public that they enjoy seeing a young , scared girl scared witless and humiliated .

Probably explains why this country is in the sh1t.

People don't want to see someone with no fear, breezing through a task. It's boring.

The alternative is someone who is too scared to do it.

That's the fatal flaw in the task design.

Will anyone on the forum admit to voting for Helen?

I can't phrase this exactly how I'd like to, but I'm sure you can get the general idea from me saying that the voters are obviously a very special bunch.

I'm sure it is all an act Alexis.....
Anyone with panic attacks (as she claims) could not walk along that rope bridge with the confidence she shows!

I can only assume in the hope that she will walk? At least then we might see an interesting trial, and no more air time for the airhead.

It's funny people are actually wasting their money to see nothing happen.

Normally by now I think most people would have got bored voting for her, but she's doing herself no favours by acting like a 12 year old. She's a 22 year old woman ffs.

Someone needs to be the nasty guy and quick.

Doesn't help when we get overexposed to Helen. It's become the Helen Show recently.

There's been celebs in the past who kept being voted to do the trials and they put more effort in than Helen. There's nothing entertaining about her fear in the same way previous scared celebrities have been funny. Even the ones she has attempted she was not entertaining. It's just boring.

At first I would be agreeing with you, but now, especially tonight, she just didn't want to do it. Last night she didn't want to do the task with her mouth, so she didn't, put it down to her 'dizziness'.

She should no longer be there, imo.

Because she is an attractive female pure and simple, never a good thing to be on reality shows.

The exact same thing happened last year wit Nicola McLean last year, she was voted to do every trial, and if I remember correctly, she had EXACTLY the same reaction on the forums as Helen has had this year.

The same thing will happen next year, unless they bring in a rule, where if one person has done a trial, they are exempt from further trials, but ITV won't do that as they'll lose money on the voting.

Its not a new problem either. The public vote has been silly putting the same people up for several years. The problem is most sensible people don't vote and the voters that do self select them selves on all sorts of reasons. The answer is to stop anyone being put up twice in a row,

Helen's hit the right strategy. If she just refuses every task they won't have much of a show and will have to find a way to stop her being voted for. Otherwise there's nothing going on, and fed up camp mates to put on TV . If the others criticise her, it will serve no purpose, and the same voters who keep on putting Helen up will vote anyone who complains about her out.....

I don't vote [and never have done on any of these shows].
From what I have read on another forum,people vote for her[or Gillian /sinittaand their equivalents]because they find people becoming hungrier, and therefore more argumentative, entertaining.
I don't personally find it entertaining,but there you go.

TBH, I wouldn't rise to it or waste money, but I can see why ...

1) She doesn't even try or make an honest effort.
2) Everytime she leaves, she "bigs herself up" (as the gangstas say, thanks for that Colin), and tries to put a positive spin on it. "I gave 100%. Couldn't do more. Felt empowered", etc.

I believe that infuriates the GBP. It's like having Tony Blair in power all over again! (Little bit of politics..my name's Ben Elton. Goodnight!) If she doesn't sort out those two issues, I believe the GBP will keep voting for her...

Ant and Dec have pleaded for us to stop as have the camp and Helen. Loads of people have said that they want to see people someone else do it.... so who is actually voting?
