A couple of posts after mine Mormon Girl posted "Why is it a fix do any of you watch Charlie on Eastenders?" pretty much proving my point.
Maybe you're the exception to the rule, but the Eastenders vote will definitely have influenced it. To suggest otherwise is naive.
As for Helen, she's just a very unlikeable character. She could be in your own family and you wouldn't vote for her.
Whereas Charlie is a nice person.
She got to the final on her own merit, but I think it's fair to say the final vote will have been swung by the Eastenders votes and the emotional blackmail of constant references to her daughter.
