I really don't understand people who insist on referring to "the public" as one hive mind. How bizarre.

Also, if you really did represent this "public" you speak of, surely you'd have supported the winner for more than just the last three series? And what about the members of "the public" who booed Helen? I assume you don't believe to represent them?”

I didn't watch it religiously until the last year or so. I did watch it on and off but not to the extent I was coming online and actually debating with others.

Ultimately the public crowned Helen the champion. I never doubted them, not for one second.

I agree. Shouty, arrogant, opinionated 'celebrities' just dont do it for me I'm afraid. Are we getting old

They're being paid to live in a house for up to 31 days, so we can watch them. They're not being paid to be entertaining.

I guess that's where we disagree. Well at least we're both tennis fans. I hope you're supporting Andy.

Maybe its an age thing Rufus. I'm a lady of a 'certain age' and starting to sound more and more like my mother

She used to think P J Proby was 'scandalous'.

I have watched everyone and when I look back at Anne Diamond sewing for a task teaching some of the others to what we have now it's not even in the same universe.
Most of the earlier people would not go in now can you imagine some celebs from earlier years in this one ? they would think the world had gone mad !
