I've just thought about the "times tables" night again.

I don't think the other HM grilled Hopkins enough on them, seemed like she was struggling badly. Ah, it could have been fun.

That was bit of a shock-Katie not being able to answer 9x8's !!! She said something like "you have to start at 10"

Hopkins could google the answers using the laptop in her private bedroom.

Shocking due to how much BS we've been fed about her and her cleverness.

My 8 year old niece would put her to shame in the times tables stakes by the looks of things. Oh they really should have milked that.

but in her defence, doubt she's needed to refer to 9x8 since she left school - and you don't need to know it as a journalist - but even so !

yeah, what's that about ? Is she really still able to do her 'column' while in the House I don't like that. Obviously part of the deal in having her as a HM , hmmmm terrible.

but but but I thought she knew everything about everything

what about when she was enjoying her "glittering career" in the army surely counting was useful then what with making sure there were enough guns for soldiers etc...

She's not that kind to other people is she.

She never claimed to know everything as far as I know !

All the HMs agree with her about Perez, and after what he did to Alexander and what he's doing to her in that house and spoiling the others enjoyment and experience of BB- she has every right to dislike Perez, as the others do too. She's also said to Nadia that she'd get on with her if it wasn't for Perez, but Nadia turned on her still,so I don't think she's very nice person either along with Perez.

I'm sure she can count, it was 9x8 recall on the spot that she didn't get - bit more time and I'm sure she'd have got it, it's hardly unusual !

she'd be no good organising the battenburgs in the bat wars with those sort of multiplication skills

to be fair I would have to run through the whole table in my head before answering
