I must admit Dappy popping up anywhere made me want to throw something at the TV, but now although he's not that clever, he does have a certain likeable quality. Limited, but nonetheless I won't dismiss him quite so quickly in the future.

Rylan fell into the same category, i.e. SWITCH HIM OVER! but strangely his role in BOTS has grown on me - he's funny and quite a competent presenter.

Linda Nolan - fallen from grace I'm afraid. Not sure how anyone has the energy to be so confrontational and persistently mean. She's loving the victim role so much i.e. "He's kicking a widow when she's down" Bah.

Lee. An immature man with no self control, no redeeming virtues, no conversational skills and not a chance in hell of sustaining a relationship with high maintenance Jasmine when he comes out.

The rest have not moved up or down too much from what I had expected they would be. (except Lionel is a little more risqué shall I say)

So, two well up in my mind, two well down.

I thought Lionel would be nicer.

I thought Jim would be funnier.

I thought Dappy would be more irritating.

I thought Ollie would be stuck up.

I thought Lee would be funny rather than actually being the joke.

Casey disappointed me big time, i was an outspoken defender of hers early on and i'm surprised, if not shocked that she continued on obsessing over Lee after all of that early stuff broke off.

Kind of sick by her, to be honest. I can't believe she would even consider giving him the time of day after all that.

I still defend her in that specific example of the early triangle situation but from after the bolthole on that's where i stop defending her.

Lionel, i just assumed due to his age he would be more of a wiser individual. Found no wisdom with Lionel, only nastiness.

Psst!!! we don't mention that. What goes on in the over 18 task room, stays in the over 18 task room.

I thought Lionel would be lovely and he isn't.

I thought Linda would be funnier/likeable but she's just miserable.

I thought Lee would be a nice lad but he's just a tool.

I thought Sam would be more outgoing but she's very quiet but I still like her.

Didn't think I'd like Luisa but I do.

I still don't like Jim

I thought I'd like Lee, I expected him to be more of a fun guy. Even though I knew he had a reputation with the women I didn't expect him to be so .....erm what's the word..... 'Indecisive?'

To be truthful I didn't have an opinion on anyone apart from Lee.

i guess i was disappointed evander was so quiet. a poor choice for the typical american male addition. He wasnt nearly as entertaining as a Coolio or Dennis Rodman.

its also interesting to see someone like Lee who must have gone through his fair share of females being so 'immature'. I would have thought when youve reached a level of fame like he did and had women throw themselves at you etc, he'd be better with women.

casey too, is a attractive woman who must have had plenty of male attention to boast her ego but seems very desperate for attention or at the very least easily fallen for someone. Its very much like both her and lee are teenagers or young 20 somethings lacking in opposite sex experience

I thought Linda Nolan would be nicer.

Jim as expected and I'd imagine most men watching would sympathise with him.

I didn't know the others but Louisa and Casey are lovely.

I thought Dappy would be thrown out, but he is still in there and providing a lot of the fun for me.

Lee has been a big disappointment, i thought he would be more fun and likeable.

hey jacs75 I totally agree with all u said. sam quieter than I though she'd be but likeable. but don't want her to win tho

Still can't quite figure Jim out, I can't read him at all.

I feel like I'm still waiting for Sam to hatch - there must be more, there just must be.

Liz, I love her columns, but I was expecting a more feisty character.

Jim, bit of a grumpy old git.

Dappy, oh god, like a stroppy, hormone-riddled 14 year-old. Makes me cringe, but under it all I can't help but think there is a very unhappy person.

No, but I only really knew of the older housemates.

Jim, quieter than I expected but as mentioned probably told by his agent to hold back on the liquor, opinions and true self. Still don't like him although he has made me laugh on occasions.

Lionel, much, much ruder than I imagined and quite the potty mouth. Been a life long fan of his so he's only gone up in my estimation. Had him pegged as the winner or at least runner up

Liz where's the in your face opinions and attitude?

Casey, only seen her in the odd sketch on Russel Howard's Good News, she seems like a lovely young lady apart from the attachment to Lee

Lee, I knew he was a bit thick but always came across as a decent lad, now I know he's a b*** e**

Ollie, thought he may be a snob but I just love him.

Jim, always disliked him, but now feel sorry for him as he has had it tough in the house.

Dappy, wanted to like him but he is playing a game in there.

Luisa, always thought she was a right cow, hav'nt changed my mind.

Jamine, did not know her.

Casey, did not know her but starting to like her.

Lionel, always knew he was a right sod after he was on the farm. Nasty twonk he is.

Lee, thought he would be lovely but he is a joke.

Linda, disliked her before she went in the house, now I loath her. Nasty mare.

Liz, did not know her. Don't mind her but wtf, can she move on from victim status.

Evander, thought he would be like he was.

Sam, who!!!!!!
