I don't LIKE her enough to want her to win but she does deserve to win for pure entertainment sake.

Rex bullied Rachel Rice but as far as entertainment value he was a great housemate.

Rex would win vs Luisa??

Pull the other one, he got taken down by NICOLE of all people.

Repeatedly.

Slightly different situation. Nicole was his girlfriend. He had to take her side!

Not that one again!!!!! Rachel was well able to stick up for herself and proved that on a number of occasions. They actually liked each other.

Disagree, Rex and his 'influence' are vastly over-rated on this forum, too many hormonal housewives on this board dripping at any sign of testosterone.

Oh dear. I hope you're not one of those people who refer to JD as sexist. That would be a bit of the pot calling the kettle black!

As for your comment, Rex would be the last person who would appeal to this "hormonal housewife" in the way you're implying. I just thought he was a brilliant housemate.

I agree with you Janis. What a brilliant comparison though OP.

They're both very alpha.. Chemistry perhaps.

Nicole was his kryptonite.

If you remember cowardly Rex only picked on quiet mild-manner females - namely Rachel Rice and aussie Sara Folino. He would run a mile from a strong minded female like Luisa.

Her and Lisa sharing the prize money was so cute. My fave housemates from that series. <3

He had to face Bex's non-too-small wrath on a few occasions, and, as I said earlier, he was the only one with enough balls to tell Alex she was acting like a mentally ill diva towards the end of her run.

In fact, didn't Alexandra seal her own fate by aiming the "pow, pow" rant at Rex?!

Exactly - he is my fave BB HM ever.

I wonder how Luisa would've reacted to "I'd swap you for Scrabble!" being aimed at her instead of Rachel!

Luisa is many things but Scrabble is not one of them.
