Thank goodness. In the face of adversity, Alex not only usually pulls through, but he does it in style too.

Take for instance that first week on the poor side when they really had nothing .... class.

I am now so looking forward to next week (once Tim is out).

Knowing how Alex sticks to the rules and listen to the authority body, it wouldn't surprise me that they played on his guilt that he signed a contract, and that him walking will ruin the company and will be involved with messy relationship with its sponsors and adverstisers, and that it would spell the fall of the BB experience and that there wont be a BB4, BB5, etc...you know these sort of reasons, ...

That would relly freak Jonny and we will have one hell of a week with Jonny "what they don't like me"?

Hope Brett has made Alex do some serious thinking about how Jonny, Kate and Jade are not his enemies. I know some of you will be sick of me repeating this!!!!! Please loosen up Alex you are at your best when you let your hair down with Jonny and the girls. They bring the best out in you!!!! Adelle Sandy and Tim bring out the worst in you if only you could see that.
However I don't think it is fair for Alex to be voted out, as he deserves his place in the final four as do Jonny, Kate and Jade. I will be voting for Jonny to win, but if any of the other three win I will still be happy as all four are deserving of it.

Yeah right!...like that's going to happen!

How about we all go down on Friday and throw bottles of (dis-GUST-ing) urine over the wall with his name on them !!

That's the problem. He doesn't see that. No point telling him that here, maybe you should head down to the house and shout over the walls.

I take it you haven't read any posts over the last few days!

This forum is clogged up with one-sided black propaganda attacking every single action of HMs the poster happens not to be backing and attributing devious motivations to the most straight-forward behaviour.

I would have thought by now it would be apparent from the steady trickle of posts complaining about this nonsense that this tactic had lond since ceased to pay any dividends amongst uncommitted or fair-minded forum members but the feeding frenzy seems to be unstoppable by now.

I do agree, though, that this weeks vote is a foregone conclusion.

Oops wrong button! Sorry!

If Alex really had any intention of walking, then why has he got the needle about being nominated ??

Sorry, but Jonny IS his enemy, and you will never convince us that Kate is his friend, he made serious effort to get along with her, and what she does? Go to nominate him, implying that she relates more to Jade than Alex.

Exactly! I think, like with all of Alex's rants, it's done for the cameras.

I totally agree with Observer - how can Alex trust Kate when she so obviously nominated him ahead of Jade!!!!!!

Kate should get an Oscar for her acting lately - did you see her when they announced the nominations - why was she so surprised that Tim and Alex were up for nomination when she voted for them!

KATE OUT! ALEX IN!!!!!!!!!!!

No I don't think it is...after all. when he does "rant" he often takes an unpopular and confrontational standpoint. If he was really playing up to the cameras and trying to go all out to win - I don't think he would do this. I honestly believe he is the only one in there to openly speak his mind....

Tim should definitely go this Friday.....and I hope to god Alex doesn't walk or get evicted.

The reason I say that is that, whether you love Alex and hate Jonny, or vice versa, or love Kate and hate the other two - or whatever combination of love/hate you have...the winner should win BB3 fairly.

To do that - all three "big hitters" should be in the final. That way, there will be no nagging doubt about the legitimacy of whoever wins (e.g. x wouldn't have won if Alex didn't walk/get evicted)

Personally, I would love Alex to win...but whoever you want to win should do so fair and square....

Since you ask I think she was surprised not that Alex and Tim were nominated but that only they were up - she was probably expecting to be nominated as well. She, like me, thought that Jade would nominate her and didn't realise that Tim would let her off for once and vote for Jonny.

I think additionally she thought Alex might name her as well - he was very upset when PJ left and she didn't hear his conversation with Tim when Alex said he'd rather there was a woman left for the last week - which, of course, is the only reason Tim didn't waste a vote on Kate. You'll doubtless be pleased to hear this probably won Alex some brownie points with more unbiased posters.

I expect, however, you'd rather believe it was all a diabolical plot.

I still don't really see why liking one HM has to involve hating others but anyway - yes I agree, they should all be there next week and may the best woman win.

I honestly do not know how anyone has the AUDACITY to pull Alex down for having a moan about being nominated. I'll assume you are a Jonny fan. The same Jonny that:
[list][*]contemplated walking himself a couple of days ago[*]whinged about his family having to trail down at every opportunity[*]gave himself sleepless nights worrying about the whole thing, cutting a lonely figure there as he sat up on his own at 5am [*]desperately tried to figure out why people didnt like him[*]pondered on why he was nominated when he 'hadn't had a problem with anyone', like[*]moaned that he hated nominating, and would rather risk a strike, than damage his (already failing) popularity)[/list]
The man has aged 10 years since being in the house, his gameplan failed miserably, and he didnt like it.

The reason Alex is moaning is because the prospect of being in the house with 3 people who obviously don't want him there, is not very appealing. And rightly so.

Excellent post, hyacinth. Spot On!

Now I'm no fan of Alex's (or Jonny's for that matter), but up until his paddy about going I really didn't care who won the thing. Now I think he looks a little petulant. I don't remember Helen being like this when it was obvious that everyone voted for her (or do I have rose coloured specs on?). Seems like Kate is my only choice, however they have all, for the most part been quite entertaining and none of them deserve to be hated.

I think you're on the wrong board Carlton, you sound far too reasonable and will only get in the way of the Alexites and Jonnists screaming at each other.

<thinks - why are nearly all the rational posters Kate supporters>

I am an Alex fan and have not been happy with the way he has been over the last couple of days (I'm assuming from the posts here that the C4 edits are a reasonable portrayal of his behaviour over the last couple of days). I'm glad he's not going to walk. I think the best last four would have been Spencer, Alex, Kate and Jonny - which would have been a real battle of the big-boys/girls. But, I now think Jade has a real chance of making her mark in the voting, so Alex, Kate, Jade and Jonny is still quite interesting.

Like others here, I have noticed that Alex is at his best immediately following some adverse circumstance (going to the poor side / Sandy leaving / Adele leaving) - he doesn't even seem to notice this himself - so I would like to see how he reacts to Tim leaving.

Enemy? Are they officially at war or something. Less of the melodrama, please.

And as for trying soooooooo hard to get along with Kate, if by that you mean trying it on when she was bladdered then I'll give you that.

Note to Poppy - never, repeat, never wear a G-string when you've got an arse like a diseased rabbit.

Could someone please tell me how to include previous posting in my replies - many thanx

Exactly! Spineless Alex strikes again. All mouth and no action.

Yeah, they have been playing the COLD war for a while now, or haven't you noticed. They both dislike each other, it's obvious like a sun, so serves nothing to try and pretend that Jonny has Alex's best interest at heart.

I guess you missed all those talks between them when he was clearing the air and explaining himself to her why he behaved the way he behaved with her. of course you don't want to remember this, as it will expose how 2 faced Kate is.
