Exactly this. I can't think of a single memorable Winston moment


Too busy arguing over which side of the water should take him

ITA with everything. I was pleasantly surprised to see him go because this is typically exactly the type of monotonous, stereotypical bore the public embraces.

Completely agree. He was so dull, so bland, such a boring old dullard trapped in a 'OMG ee iz well fit innit' body that I thought his passage to the title was a given (as did he )

I think it shows something human about a housemate when the experience affects them in a deep way, someone who remains exactly the same in an uninteresting way is my least favourite type of housemate (doesn't mean they're bad people , just bad housemates) Ashleigh (IMO) has delivered something completely different then most people would have expected , she started out as the quiet , unassuming third wheel to toya and Danielle , then became the ice cold bitch queen who had an "evil plan" against ash and hated Helen , then she showed a more relatable and endearing side after Danielle was evicted and became (somehow , she is not a type the public usually goes for) the publics favourite and actually has a decent chance to win. She's one through lots of ups and downs in there. She is a flawed person no doubt , she is bitchy , judgemental and often quite self righteous but she's also
Funny , intelligent , perceptive and rootable. She's a type we've never really seen before and I don't think anyone would have expected what we got from her , winston on the the hand was exactly what we would have expected in the dullest way possible , he's like a pound shop Anthony Hutton.

Get away! Who would be bothered by that except a couple of pedants on here! The vast majority wouldn't even know, let alone care.

I 2nd that, OP

Well, it was a tongue in cheek comment, but, as someone who grew up in Kent and has lived in Essex for 26 years, I did find it annoying that he denies his Kentish roots.

LOL!

Well, I was born and bred in Essex but now live in Kent and I don't want him either side of the water. How about the Outer Hebrides?

Really? I think it's fair enough, when asked where you are from, to name the place where you reside rather than the place you were born/grew up. I would never see it as a snub.

I would agree if he'd lived there a while but he's lived in Kent all of his life until very recently and is now using the fact that he moved to Essex a few months ago as part of his selling point to enter BB. It screams fake imo.

I don't really think of it as a snub, but rather a cynical attempt to cash in on the TOWIE thing.

That's my view as well. Funnily enough, Pav is the real Essex boy in there but no one is promoting him as that

I didn't know that but that's very odd , maybe his parents are from Essex or something? Is there a huge difference between Essex and Kent? (Sorry my uk geography isn't great)

Agreed. I have also said in another thread that Winston and Ash were always giggling on in the background like two schoolboys whenever anyone else was arguing or getting a verbal bashing from their great mate Helen. I did actually whoop out loud when his name was called for eviction

Exactly.

He comes from Sandwich which is right by the Kent coast (Canterbury/Ramsgate area). To Brentwood where he now lives is about a 2 hour car journey. He was born and bred nearer to Northern France than Essex

So I would definitely agree it's a cynical attempt to cash in on the TOWIE vote

Mmm maybe, but seeing as they were all approached to enter the house I guess he was 'found' in Essex and that simply went on his profile. I can't see that it would be a dealbreaker.

Not much difference, at all, and Kent and Essex are next to each other.

The only difference is that Essex is marketable, at the moment, due to the dreadful TOWIE.

A very accurate summarisation of Winston the dullard's time in the house. Well said!

Completely agree, and now he is showing how bitter he is with his slating of Ashleigh, glad he's gone.

Great post, I agree 100%.
