I was watching Big Brother this afternoon and saw Kate talking to Jade, Adele and Sophie. She said something along the lines of "If any of us win next weeks task, lets decide to have all the girls in the rich side". Scheming or what! Shes now got all the rich side (apart from Alex and Tim) on her side and probably the poor side as well!

But the dastardly BB producers will have heard that and devise some other way of who goes where !

They were talking about the next task on BBLB they wouldnt say what the task would be but they did say the person who has the highest score goes into the rich side the one with the lowest score into the poor side then they take it in turns saying who will go with them.

...and how is this different from the many converstaions saying the same thing previously that Adele, Jade, and Sophie have instigated before the previous task? How is it different from the lads discussing who'd they choose to have in the rich side with them if they win?

You really think Adele will ever consider herself on anyone's side? Jade will forget who she was friends with or even the fact that she can nominate by the time it comes to it, and Sophie is so busy missing Lee that I doubt she cares much about anyone else in the house. If someone were trying to scheme they'd best look to get more reliable comrades!

I don't watch E4 or the webcast and therefore the only TV coverage I see is channel 4's daily highlights. By reading the various online coverage it is clear that these highlights programmes are edited very carefully to favour certain housemates. In particular, the presentation of Kate is extremely biased in her favour. Kate has a tendency to say and do dumb things, much dumber than Jade, and these are never shown on the highlights programme. The only coverage of Kate are views of her breasts and bum. Channel 4 has an interest in keeping Kate on Big Brother presumably because she most closely resembles the target demographic of the programme. That is, she is assumed to be the housemate who is most like the people who watch and vote. She is thick, childlike and a tart.

So you've only seen the C4 coverage, which you admit is only interested in views of her breasts and bum, and therefore are able to draw the conclusion that she is thick, childlike and a tart. Of all the remaining women in there she seems the most even tempered, consistant, and chaste. Kate has worn similar clothes to the other women in the house, she has settled down in a flirty relationship with Spencer and only kissed him once, she can string a sentance together without contradicting herself, she doesn't bring every conversation back to herself, and she hardly ever bitches about the other housemates. What dumb things has she done that others haven't?

My assessment of her is based on reading the online coverage as I stated, (can you read?).

Have you ever heard her complete a sentence?

Kate represents a type of young person prevalent in the home counties who revel in stupidity...they are the offspring of the young Thatcherites of the early eighties.

I like Kate and personally I think of all the housemates I'd like her to win this series just to be the first female winner but...

Watching her clumsily dropping the chips last night when the poor housemates were looking forward to them so much was hilarious...Spencers look and comments when she did were a laugh too...I was supprised the whole Egg and Chip making adventure last night wasn't shown on the edits tonight....

I would say that C4 equally edit out a lot of the clever funny silly bits Kate does too...she's a really wicked mimic of those in the house at times, but so few of these bits get shown either. On balance, I think they've concentrated on showing Kate as a "pretty girl in a bikini" which hasn't done her popularity much good either as almost all the women I've asked HATE her even without seeing anything actually negative about her! - read into that what you will psychologically.

Yikes, such a strong opinion based on what you freely admit is a very limited view of a person...and SO far off the mark in my view that I wonder what you've been reading!

Kate has never revelled in stupidity in any of the live coverage I've seen - though she will freely admit to her short comings, which takes a strong personality to do IMHO.

I'm wondering if you're mixing up Kate and Jade in your limited perspective?
