She never seems to do anything (apart from look good and even that gets boring after awhile!!). Is it part of her plan to keep her head down and this not get noticed until nearer the end?
Once mary is gone then she will come out of her shell a bit more...it is hard to show your full personality when someone is constantly digging their claws into your back...
I don't think she's been that quiet, she's not as attention seeking as some of the people in there, so appears quieter. She joins in all the fun, and i've seen her talking quite a bit in small groups. She's just not into shouting to be heard, and the whole bitching thing, which is where most of the noise is coming from this year.

....or even if its craig tonight. IMO after the very 1st eviction of each series things start to balance out more. The quieter ones become more involved and the louder ones seem to calm down a little (with the exception of one or two in the past)
Yeah when I saw the Mary fight I thought to myself "Oh, is that what she sounds like?".. I'd never really heard her talk much prior to that. Then again, I'm not sure I've ever heard Sams voice. Oh wait, in the DR once.

Sums it up well. There is no need for someone to be constantly arguing and looking for problems. When the time came, Saskia made a foray into the world of bitching and dealt with it.

True, I will grant you that. I enjoyed it when she sat down with Mary and had a good old "sorting out"!
I'm sure that BB is produced predominantly by men. They seem to think that it is OK for the women to be brainless but "good looking" or have large boobs, whereas the men are all ugly with "personalities".
Why can't we women have brainless totty like Stuart last year and the women be the "characters".
Next year, for us shallow women, I want 6 straight, gorgeous but brainless men, 3 gay women and 3 straight, but freaky women

OK, we'll give you the gorgeous women, you shallow men have to watch something and wouldn't that be most men's idea of a good time, watching two gorgeous, gay women

Not if they're bitching. Can we give them daily tasks?

A qualified yeah...as I said at the start of this thread, that kind of thing gets boring. You need intelligent conversation and something that suggests more than a brain dead personality.

Me too and as for those say they will come out of their shell later, they are on BB, they should be lively and entertaining. I hate the quiet ones who sit back and let the others make fools of themselves or do all the talking. If I want to see people sitting around not talking I will go to library. :yawn:
I think a number are failing to deliver this year. Saskia, I think is playing it deliberately quietly to ensure she doesn't come to notice. Craig's audition video promised fire and venom but he is just coming across as a big crybaby. Sam is just doing nothing for me and even Lesley is quieter than I expected

It's supposed to be reality tv. Going to the extreme with constant arguments will start to wear thin after a while. Admittedly different people want different things, but the general reaction is that a bit of 'normality' wouldn't go amiss.

I don't like all the arguing either, but Vanessa & Sam especially don't seem to offer anything to the show, I haven't heard a single conversation from either of them that has helped me to get to know them a bit better.
