She's done naff all for weeks. She's pipes up once and now she's mother Teresa.

James has been the sole voice in pulling Austin up in there, it was long overdue for someone to back him up. Where was she the last few days? Where was she when Austin was laying into Janice in the bedroom? Why didn't she tell him to put a sock in it whilst Janice was getting both barrels??

She's basically stood up to Austin once and is getting 10x the amount of praise for what James has been doing for days. In fact James has been getting flak for doing the same thing. I don't get it.

She shouted at Austin (the one and only thing that bird has done thus far....thats all she had to do to be loved...sad isn't it.

Natasha has been top 3 in most polls except DS since the start.

I like her and would be happy if she won.

I've always loved her

There have been contrasting judgements towards her and James for doing the exact same thing.

James is a fake game player, and Natasha is the best thing since sliced bread?

I'm not saying James is or isn't a game player, or that Natasha is either. I just find it interesting that Natasha seems to get a much easier ride.

Her best friend in the house is Sherrie, she didn't nominate Sherrie.

To be fair I'd be surprised if anyone remembered Sherrie was still in the house and eligible for nomination.

Sherrie has not been a prat to any other h/m, Austin has been a prat to most of the h/m including James.

Very true but I'm just giving the main difference between James and Natasha.

She is a bore and has contributed nothing to the show apart from being Farrahs support act.

But Austin warrants a nomination much more than Sherrie, wether you're his friend or not. Natasha and James were fighting the same fight. Yet natasha gets more praise simply because Austin is closer to James? I don't think that's fair.

Natasha would have no storyline if it wasn't for Princess Farrah throwing her a few breadcrumbs of airtime in which she could posture about how real she is while talking behind everyone else's backs.

I'm the wrong person to have this discussion with as I don't like Natasha and feel shes contributed naff all to the series therefore has no right to win. It's the only difference I can see between the pair.

Take on natasha at your peril. Her or james will definitely win CBB.

All she did was bellow "there is no need to shout" when no one was shouting.

True but dont forget her angry wide eyes and Tina malone voice screeching

She's a Brit that isn't James?

Really like Natasha & have done from the beginning Her, Janice or Sherrie to win.

Me too, wanted her to win since day one

Natasha seems alright. James is a tw4t. Does this help?

Natasha has always been my winner, she was odds on favourite a week ago and was up there for over a week. Here's hoping she wins it!

I think that one of the problems with CBB is the pre-existing fanbases. You could not see a housemate for 4 weeks and they can win because people already liked them before they entered the house.

I remember Gary Busey walking in, I figured there's the winner. Didn't matter what he did in the house, he was always going to win.

Natasha could have sat in the toilet for 4 weeks and she'd still have a following. That doesn't mean I don't like her, I do, I just don't think she's contributed much to what we've seen in the house except for a couple of moments. She's neither extremely funny nor overly argumentative.

She is generally nice, participates in the tasks and doesn't back down from an argument, but we haven't really seen that much of her.

I do think that there's also the issue of some of the housemates being so extreme, that middle-ground is attractive to some of the audience.

I'd have no issue with her winning - I like her, she's done her job well, but I just don't think that - as a contestant on CBB - she'd be a deserving winner as somebody who's featured heavily and entertained on a regular basis.

Sooner Natasha than Bobby or the ex-couple.

Was Austin actually shouting when she shouted at him to not shout?

It was uncomfortable watching her abandon Janice to that foul tirade. I liked that she showed some compassion and empathy when Austin had his meltdown though.
