I had low expectations but I find her really endearing, funny and down to earth. Proper ditzy and no airs and graces, just a lovely girl taking advantage of a once in a life time experience.....agree?..

I liked her before, but she went up heaps in my estimation on the first night, She's the practical and calm type you need in situations like this. Perhaps the Girl Guides could consider giving her an honorary head role.

I had no idea she had such low self esteem about her looks.

Found it quite sad when she was talking to Amy about her figure, and in the telegraph house thingy, said that she always looked crap.

I really hope she does well.

Didn't know much about her before IAC but so far she seems a lovely, normal, down to earth girl. It's such a shame she feels rubbish about her looks.

She's very human, unlike a lot of those one dimensional Olympic dullards.

The cardboard cutout dullards or the robot dullards?

I love her and im surprised I do! She's so lovely. it is a shame she does feel low about her looks. But she should be so proud she hasn't changed herself because of critics.

I didn't really have an opinion on her before she went in but she seems really nice and could even be a contender for the win.

Yes, I heard about that. Must have been really hurtful.

She seems really nice and down to earth, sad to see that she's so self conscious about herself, saying she always looks crap

I'd never heard of Rebecca before but she seems like a really lovely person, I think she will be very popular, she comes across warm and genuine.

I think she'll be the top girl this year for sure, I'd say she has a good shot of coming 3rd/4th possibly.

I love Rebecca and even more so now.

It is sad that she feels so horrible about herself but in a way I'm not surprised at all. Frankie Boyle won't have helped her self esteem one bit

If you are going to do that also have a fiver on her to come top woman at 13/10 so you will still make a minor profit even if she doesn't win but comes top girl (i'd say shes strong favorite to come top girl but may find it hard to break ahead of Joey Essex).

The same Frankie Boyle who is a former alco and druggy (see Twitter)? Take no notice of anything he has to say, he adds nothing meaningful to anyone else's life!

Wait until someone says nasty things about his daughter, he might then develop the intelligence to realise there is more to life than earning a living taking the piss out of high achievers.

For all the knocks Katie Price gets, this video is spot on regarding how we should all feel about Frankie Boyle:

Before the series began,I thought she was in with a good chance of winning. But there are a few decent people in there.

I've always liked her and I think the nasty comments about her looks are way off. She isn't bad and has a very nice smile espcecially. I noticed that when she won her first gold in the 2008 Olympics.
