Ashley has been a genuine surprise this series.
I feel quite bad now for responding to that article about her bandmate saying she'll have the men falling at her feet with 'yeah they'll be knocked out by her BO in the jungle atmosphere'.

It was rather strange. Wasn't really a fan of either but at least felt something towards Mark, Dougie was just non-descript.
I think there was an anti-TOWIE vote present, plus people were also sceptical that ITV were hoping it would lead to plenty of job opportunities for Mark. Whereas with Dougie as the winner they really couldn't do much with him.
Had they kept to the old format of a final 3 on the last day instead of a final 2 I think Mark would have won.
