The thread looks like it's asking why she's the least favourite to win, not why she's the least popular. (And no, they don't have to go together.)

Also, which week of the show was that thread from? There was a change in her favour after Marco left.

How could they portray one confrontational side different to another though? It's not as though they played upbeat music in the background everytime Nadia threw a strop. If viewers found it funny when she got angry that's not really a result of production protecting her. It's the same as people finding it funny when Michelle threw her flip flop at Ahmed. If they protected her they wouldn 't show her getting angry at all. The majority of BB5 viewers just preferred Nadia to Jason/Victor. I know Jungle Cats fans still have a hard time dealing with that to this day. If people want to argue that Nadia shouldn't have won because she was confrontational then Jason or Victor definitely shouldn't have won either! We should have all just voted for Shell.

I think the dislike for Jason and Victor came down to a lot more than just being confrontational though. They had some kind of superiority complex with the other housemates and that never goes down well with viewers. I don't think It was his shouting at Shell in the wedding task that got Victor evicted, but more so the fact that he refused to look her in the eye when she was trying to clear the air with him. Also he made a lot of personal insults about other housemates appearances in the diary room. Even in his eviction interview he made some remark about Nadia's jawline after finding out about her being transgender. Which obviously got a few complaints because Davina didn't reveal Nadia was transgender in any eviction interviews after that apart from Dan's.

It was on BBLB and E4orum (sic) where they created a protective bubble around Nadia in my opinion. I just found Nadia, as well Emma, Marco and Michelle, horrible. The Jungle Cats I found quite interesting to watch.

She was an 'OK' housemate but nothing special. If that series was to run now, with peoples attitudes to Big Brother changing and the acceptance more of game players, she wouldn't win.

People just got on the hype bandwagon of having a transgender win then expected her to be so wonderful in Ultimate Big Brother. Which she wasn't.
