over Jack and Christian. It would then have been the perfect final 6

I agree

Those that are the bigger characters always leave early due to the voting system

When did Gina and Dexter leave in bb14?

Not for me, as Danny and Chloe would still be included...

Disagree- still think Chloe would have won with Marc and jade 2nd and 3rd..

Jade I could take in small doses but she was protected and swapped with the 4 in out because Marc was arriving

Yes, we'll definitely Jade that's for sure! As for Marc, had he tamed it down a bit he would have been ok but was too OTT for me and provoked the others too much. He could easily have won had he been less controversial!

I still think Joel would have done ok. I still can't believe Chloe beat Joel myself. Where did her fans come from all of a sudden. There was hardly any remarks about Chloe on DS and no big fan base at all!

Even Facebook were quite anti Chloe.. But I think it was those regular voters who don't go on social media that supported her, I guess she's relatable and the money will do good for her.

a decent final 3 IMO.

According to every popularity poll everywhere, it should've been Marc and Jade, with one of them winning

Vote to Evict used to ruin the old series - more than one occasion they had to put an old housemate back in (Nikkie, John Tickle, etc)

Who cares who wins Jade and Marc should have made it to the final just so I could have watched and enjoyed BB

Their are always exception, that entire series was a one off.

If memory serves, bb had a part to play in keeping them

Also the cast was so poor many were disliked much more than the main two housemates.

Their also seemed to be a lot of tactical/block voting that series to save them.

Why Jack? He was a big part of the show, even if he was mainly moaning/arguing. Christian, on the other hand, was a non-entity even when he was trying to be relevant.

I agree, like him or loathe him Jack was a major part of the show.

Every year (whether its VTE or VTS) the voting system is blamed when someone gets voted out or doesn't get voted out. The simple fact is one person's "big character" is another person's "tw*t" and they vote accordingly. HM's should bear that in mind.

Jade, Marc and Adjoa were the only ones worth watching this year. I didn't care for any of the finalists at all. Definitely the worst year for potential winners.

Points perfectly well put.

I disagree OP the public voted them out, therefore they should NOT have been in the final. Who goes you decide is said every time there is a vote therefore we voted to evict those two and the others who left (except Sam) before the final.

It's just that she's a particular type of cliched archetype on BB where superficially she ticks all the boxes that many people feel familiar and comfortable with.
People feel immediately comfortable with somebody who is presented as being 'normal'. They don't have to think about it, it's an immediate plus.
Whether that says much about her as a fully rounded three-dimensional person is another matter. It doesn't matter, it's what's on the surface that counts.

Joel on the other hand does not tick all the boxes required. He doesn't qualify. He's not seen as 'normal', in fact some could say that there's something a bit villainous about him, or 'odd'. Whether this says much about Joel as a fully rounded three-dimensional person is another matter too. 'Odd' is not good, too different, not something people want to relate to. 'Normal' is good. People aspire to be 'normal', it's comfortable and safe. Everyone wants to be normal.

Many flirt with the idea of being thought of as 'different' by others. They see it in adverts and on telly, and heroes in films are seen as 'different' and as outsiders, it looks cool. But in reality they don't really. They always return to 'normal'. It's easier. So Chloe gets their vote. People think that if she can win BB then they can too.

Everything I've mentioned in this post is base criteria which people won't even have to consciously think that much about. They'll just instinctively vote based on this before housemates even do anything . And it will probably count for a hell of a lot of votes too.

I thought Marc and Jade were both vastly overrated and was happy when they went. Marc was overbearing and repetitive, and Jade was mostly a bit annoying.

I thought the wrong six was in the final love him or hate him Marc he was a brilliant housemate, when the so called "legends" went into the house that was Marcs downfall, as far as the public were concerned,he took the wrap for whatever Helen says especially about Brian which he had no part in, he should have been the winner IMO, I never liked Jade but Harry should have been in the final and could have won,the minute Chloe gave that big speech saying she was "normal" the producers hit on that and did everything they could to make her the winner,by good editing, always getting plenty of praise her on BOTS,after the controversial winner they had last year when Helen won,I think they stuck to "normal" as in Chloe,awful winner, but moving on I cant wait for CBB which I prefer

Jade - took a backseat too early in the game.

Marc - got too personal and offensive when he got back into the house

Adjoa - one word pu**y!

If Adjoa was a man acting the way she did, he wouldn't have come off half as bad. I thought she was funny, and totally unashamedly vulgar.

I think Jade got her game wrong, she quietened down thinking she could fly under the radar for a while and get nearer to the final, it didn't work. The early Jade was a great housemate.

As for Marc, I didn't find him too offensive. I think there was rarely any malice behind his comments, he was just playing up to what the producers had employed him to do.

All three will be my most memorable housemates this year. Had they all not gone so soon, it would have been a quite enjoyable series for me. Once Marc left, it all went downhill really quickly. This was the first series ever that I've not liked a single finalist.

Marc should of won and I consider him the real winner
