Shouldn't we really be celebrating Ashleigh for being one of the very few game-players who've actually gone through with their plans and succeeded?
I wonder if the producers are setting her up to be the big villain next week. Ash and even Helen got a sympathetic edit tonight and apparently as part of the new task Helen has seen footage of Ashleigh saying she wanted Ash up for eviciton. I guess they weren't happy that Ashleigh got away with it and just had to interfere...”
I think they've already cast her in that part. All the tweets coming out about her are "Ashleigh and Danielle are bitching in a corner" blah blah blah. They've shown nothing of her up until recently and now the spotlight is rarely off her.
Meanwhile, the bully, along with her arrogant cohort are now getting good parts in tasks, having their less flattering characteristics and deeds edited out whilst claiming to be victims of Ashleigh, and bitching in bed at night which, funnily enough, seems to be ignored.
The party line of BOTS is less than flattering on Ashleigh and now all of a sudden, Helen is damaged, we should feel sad for her, she can't help herself etc.
The bile on the main forum is unbelievable and has put me off coming here any more. I just can't understand it. Ashleigh has done nothing wrong, other than have the misfortune to be put into a house with
the most unpleasant woman I've ever seen on TV.
I wonder how she's made it this far to be honest and think she deserves a medal for picking herself up and taking on the bully in the only way she can, with her brain.
This series has sickened me more than when BB decided Aaron should be victimised. He was a grown man, Ashleigh is a young girl and yet it seems she's going to BB's next victim, just to take the heat of grown woman who's eaten up with spite and jealousy.
Quite frankly, I'm totally and utterly disgusted.
I say "good luck Ashleigh, be strong, and I hope you reach the final to spite all the people willing to hate, just because you dared to stand up to a bully".
