Exactly.

I also don't see how anyone is intelligent if they can't even pronounce Perez properly. She pronounces it Prez

She isn't intelligent, if she was she wouldn't come out with the crap that she comes out with. If you listen to her it is all just rambling.

The only people that thinks she is intelligent are the stupid, and let's face it, a lot of stupid people go on BBBOTS. Look at the audience, presenters and panel, it's constant stupidity every single day.

It's a myth she propagates, like the one where she says she is a fan of words and has to use them all, well she doesn't have a very varied vocabulary, she uses the same insults all of the time.

A lover of words would be a Susie Dent from countdown, knows many words and loves them all and uses language for nicer things then her. That is a lover of the English language!

He was being false as usual and she called him on it as usual.

She doesn't win arguments through out smarting her opponent though.

Some may say she "won" against Keith tonight when actually he made her look like an idiot because she could not grasp what he was saying. He backed down but she simply repeated the same point over and over despite it not being relevant at all to what he said. Smart.

Yes. All her success is down to her looks.”

He was sorry about the way Cami left, not that she was evicted, but you know that.

Katie Hopkins' success is down to saying things that cause offence, not because of the subject matter, it's the blunt manner in which she tackles such subjects.

Her open mouth policy just makes it harder for real issues to be addressed in a civilised manner.

She adopts the demeanor of a politician when she's in the diary room is all. That hardly makes her the Brain of Britain.

Keith's next response to her should have been "are you thick", because she certainly seemed to be thick there.

yeah, she's no Russell Brand is she ?

I don't think she's unintelligent, just not as bright as she thinks....clever people don't tend to have such a simplistic black and white view of the world like she has. They are capable of dealing with complex ideas.

She's very good at shouting people down and homing in on their insecurities to put them on the defensive. That doesn't make her intelligent, it makes her manipulative and bullying.

Such as diversity not being a bad thing.

She's that dangerous combination of thick and malevolent. She makes me shudder. And she's neither funny nor honest, before anyone suggests that she is.

She thought 'If' might be by Kipling. And I have a theory that Macbeth was by some dude called Shakespeare or something!

Completely agree - in fact I think she totally lacks both (to be fair as does Perez).

I have this theory, dude, that the Ring Cycle might have been written by Wagner.

Like, Dude! He's a composer!

I think she sometimes deliberately misinterprets things to start fights, though.

It was obvious to anyone what Keith meant tonight, but she just kept parroting the "you nominated her, so own it" line repeatedly. She could see it was riling him and that's like waving a red rag to a bull with her.

Oh and that "thick" girl is a self made millionaire, not some buffoon who can only get attention by coming out with a load of a rubbish.”

Katie P sacked for someone who is thick!!!

She was out-argued by Alicia more than once. She is not highly intelligent.

You don't need to be from Devon to have heard that Poem.

Wrong. He was just looking for forgiveness for nominating her.

And yet one of her own children is called India.

Well presumably Angie Best knew Calum knew the poem or she wouldn't have sent him it as his letter.

He wasn't. He was upset at Cami leaving (as he is every time someone is evicted) he's a old softie. He was upset at the fact that they immediately started speculating about the next eviction and what was going to happen etc. They didn't even give her a mention.

He walked away with tears in his eyes - when he returned they were 'finally' talking about Cami and denied that they'd talked of anything else.

They are a fake self centred bunch - Keith is a genuine old softie.

It would be interesting to know her education level and university. There seems to be the general myth she's smart when in fact they mean cunning. She's not evolved in anyway.
