I am very smug because I picked Chloe as winner before they went in. *swanks*

I give credit to the producers for choosing some housemates who were not models or z listers; but I mark them down for their constant determination to reduce them to the lowest common denominators of argumentation and money-grabbing. I am encouraged by the fact the core group never quite succumbed.
I did not really mind who won. I do not think Chloe was as bad as some people think. Maybe she did want to win, but she did not lose her humanity over it. I was struck by the way she was prepared to move on with Simon twice, after he was gratuitously horrid to her. I think this crew are more likely than most to put their moment of fame behind them and get on with a normal life.”
She was nice to Simon when many had lost patience with him, but I thought it was rather inhuman to take Jack's money and risk him losing it.
Mind you, she acted like it was her personal money that was "stolen" and she was jolly well right!
