Is Ashleigh mad? Mark's the gobbiest one in there. Sigh... Ashleigh, what have you done? I couldn't believe that she chose him. I'd have went for Christopher.

She knew he would gob off , the public hate a grass.

She was trying to make it all not so obvious by picking Mark.

The house this year seems fairly devoid of rules, however the one rule that all the HMs adhere to is that if there's something good up for grabs Christopher won't be getting it.

She had to chose someone who was more aligned with the nasty gang in order to put them off the scent. It would have been too obvious had she picked Christopher. Maybe Winston would have been a better choice.

Um.... what has she told Mark? Your Op is lacking some important info|!!

I'm surprised she can't see through what a fake snake he is! Unless it was some brilliant tactical ploy on her part because she knew he would gob off and lose public support I don't see the sense in her making that decision. However I really don't think that was the case as she genuinely seems to like Mark and trust him.

Ashleigh, I love you but why you make such bad decision?

Have you not seen the latest episode?

Lol at everyone making excuses for Ahsliegh and look loyal to her friends. When she clearly said "Christopher won't agree with my decisions" and was willing to choose Winston over him.

Maybe. I think Ashleigh's brighter than I thought.

She also said he doesn't discuss things in the quick manner needed for that position.

Ashleigh told Chris that she was picking Steven.

See in general maybe she should of picked Winston he was the other one they discussed. But also they didn't know how many they would end up having in the power alliance. Anyway in the end no one can second guess BB there worse then ever this year at ******* things about as we know haha

The fact she didn't choose Christopher puzzled me too tbh. I'm not pissed off enough about it to stop supporting her though. She did say in the beginning that she wasn't going to base completely on friendships so she kept her word.

I think it was a very good tactical move, mix up the dynamics!

Tactically it was a bad move because Mark was always going to throw them to the wolves to save his own bacon. Winston and Christopher would have shown more loyalty. Also if its normal nominations next week Chris and Ashleigh are going to be nominated by Helen's gang.

The only good thing is that if the edit shows what really happened last night Mark will be shown for the player he is.

none of the hms are nice all nasty just some more than others

Thinking about it, I think Ashleigh wanted Mark to get the blame because she knows how much of a coward and gossip Mark is. It's all becoming clear now. I suppose I should have thought about it more before making this thread.

normal nominations would make a nice change

I'm glad she didn't choose Christopher. He's had enough crap thrown at him. Do you think any of the cool kids would have listened to his reasonable (unlike Marks) explanation? Helen already proved, with the way she spoke about Chris, that she would have been gunning for him too.

Setting him up for a fall?

I disagree. Christopher, Zoe, Pav and Chris. I don't know what they're like in real life, but they've been okay in the house so far.

Ashleigh was under the mistaken assumption that Mark is a nice guy and was her friend.

Ashleigh knows that Ash and Helen are the dominant ones and that Mark is the weakest personality of the 'popular' group. So, by getting Mark to nominate Ash, she knows that Mark will get some negative words from Ash and Helen for doing this. I'm guessing that Ashleigh also doesn't like Mark for being a two-faced gossip as well.

After seeing things more clearly, I disagree. I can't believe I didn't click on why she chose Mark.
