Everyime Alicia was speaking that annoying blonde boot kept turning her head with looks of disgust.

I am sure I wasn't imagining it even if it was from a distance.

I didn't notice

I thought Alicia was great though

That girl isn't 'thick' ... she was spot on in her observations all night ( and expressed herself articulately too )

She makes so much ( quiet ) sense she makes Hopkins look like a blustering buffoon

I wish she was still in the house and 'only good for a showmance' Calum had gone instead

i noticed that from her first diary room pieces, it's why i found it so annoying when Katie H, Michelle, Cami and Chloe all used to laugh about her "one brain cell" and call her "dingbat" when she was more perceptive than the lots of them.

It appears that she was acting thick maybe she was trying to copy Goody.

Or maybe there's a difference in the kind of intelligence a formal education imparts and a natural perceptiveness that is innate

Like that very kind caller on Bots said ... Alicia has emotional intelligence

I think he was right

... and I think Hopkins is a dunce in that department

They wanted to keep up a mantra that she was not only 'stupid' but 'weak'. I noticed when she left that they remarked that she '..left a stronger person than she came in', like they had imparted something of themselves to her. The hubris of them all!
Yes, she was more perceptive, hence stronger, than those three. She could also stand alone.

I thought Alicia was terrible on BOTS. Her lines sounded rehearsed and she couldn't manage to fit what she was saying into the normal flow of conversation, she had to just blurt stuff out when she felt it was time to say it. I felt a bit sorry for everyone in the studio as it was awkward all round.
