Site owners/ moderators excepted. Emzi, I have to say I find your attitude to some posters to be a little unreasonable. Maybe you should take a deep breath before you post.
BB3 has finished, he/she can't influence votes now. Can't see what the problem is. I'm really interested to see what the moderators favourites were. |

Emzi - well said.
Maybe Endemol/C4 could have saved themselves some trouble by cutting out the middle man (Kate) and just chucked £70k down the toilet, where most of it will end up anyway. Ooops, sorry, that was uncalled for. But hey, who cares? |

OK she won and good luck to her. However if she got 30$ of the vote there are still 70% who preferred someone else. Lot of people. |

I'm going to say it again, personal attacks WILL NOT be tolerated
Forum members are all allowed to state their opinion BUT they should not be attacked personally for the opinions they have. And perhaps some people should gather a bit more perspective on the whole Big Brother thing. It's a gameshow and the housemates should not be considered as role models in my opinion. mromega Board Moderator Digital Spy Ltd |

For me there were only two winners tonight.......Jade for her unstoppable enthusiasm...and Alex for his humility...but there is only one with true charisma....ALEX

I'm really interested to see what the moderators favourites were. What I find annoying is that these people, reporters and Moderators, have been placed in a position of responsibilty within this forum. In that role they have had to take the high ground and censor etc... Yes they can have a view, but not under the log in title that shows that status. Why? Coz such immature views such as Emzi really pisses me off after the numerous times I have been lectured to by these people. Nobody likes a hypocrite! |

When Jade was first out, we knew something wasn't right - the sight of jonny and kate in there as the last two was gutting. Still, I predict we will see a lot more of alex and jade than the other two idiots. I know it sounds bitter, but I feel a bit cheated tonight. And what exactly was kate wearing - she looked like she had wet herself. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Sour grapes eh? I bet you feel cheated... all those re-dials at 25p per shot... and what you got for it? Just what most people have already known, you can't go on looks, you have to open your eyes and see the personality and not be blinkered. One day, you will open your eyes, and you will regret the words you have posted here as pitiful. . Erm... no I don't think so. You can't go on looks? What do you mean? Did I mention anything about looks in my post? Are you trying to put words into my mouth? I fear that you are the bitter one, mr boz lightyear. You unpleasant man. |

I have been an Alex fan from Day 1 but can honestly say if Alex didn't win Jade was the next person I would have liked to see win......these 2 have beeen the most honest people in the house for weeks now. And before anyone jumps on my back I am 37 years old with 4 children and feel Jonny & Kate did not set a good example to the youngsters of today. You'd rather your kids take their example of a deserving winner from somebody who the nation laughs at rather than with? You want them to emulate (that's what role models are for) somebody who shouts over others, is unintelligent, bitchy and rude. What a shame. |

The ex-performing arts student I don't really think Drama A level makes you a "performing arts student". doesn't need the money for a start (It's been hard not to say anything but one of my mates worked with Kate in London and she frequently bragged about being so wealthy that she didn't have to work). So rich that she has a large loan to repay on her car. Also - the fact that she was quite happy to puke everywhere And your proof that she was "happy" about this? She was actually one of several who threw up during the series. Instead an unnaturally thin How does that tally with the fat arse jibes? She was hardly unnaturally thin. Indeed I would have thought that Sophie, Sunita and Alex were all thinner for their height. outdated ladette Which means what? throwing bags of Pork Scratchings at anyone who weighs more than she does is funny Are you really sure you are cut out be a DS reporter? You seem to lack the accuracy and unbiased perspective of your colleagues. |

I think the wrong person won, but I guess if you have acted all the way through , it must go in your favour.......performing arts etc.
Sadly it said it all when Davina appeared wearing her YES necklace.....Kate's most annoying saying. Did not want to think they would try to sway it, but it appeared to work. I was trying to vote for Jade for ages but it was constantly engaged......which I thought was a good sign......but could it have been intentional.....YOU DECIDE. |

This is entirely my own opinion. I don't expect anyone to agree with me. Nor do I expect to change anyones mind. In my view she was the the least contoversial winner. She was also the most boring winner. She didn't really excell in any way and her best best highlighted the lack of them. She relied on others to prop her up and never seemed to make an imapact herslf. Yessss! Yessss! Thats how I'll remember her. That's it really. No knocking her, if that's what it takes to win (and that matters) fine but she's down there with Criag when it comes to "winners" with me................

I'm trying to keep this thread open.
All the mods have too much to do tonight moderating the mass of posts that are being made therefore we are likely to take any action against any problem members when it is a bit quieter. The question about different login's can be answered thus :- Only one login is allowed per person, this even applies to DS Staff. Even if DS staff had different logins it would be easy to match up one with another and make the same accusations. Therefore unless signed in a similar style to below, posts are personal opinion. mromega Board Moderator Digital Spy Ltd |

Jade and Alex were individual candidates. Still thats the way it goes.
Well thats how the first past the post rule works (unpopular governments have traded on it for years) the alternative is that they could have formed a coalition winners party and then they could have voted someone to be the winner every third Wednesday Hope Kate enjoys her year in office (still trying to find the smilies cos, I'm not having a serious dig) |

The right person won accept it!
She's a natural all rounder I don't care if people think she's dated she is just herslef and not too shallow to show it. i personally thought she looked like a very contemporary person not like all you shallow ****ers who change like the seasons. |

Why is it people want to drag their children into this argument.
There was a totally offensive thread posted today about children having role models from the BB3 house. It was the worst thing I had ever read in here. Why are children watching BB3 anyway? If they are - its ok for one person to get drunk and throw up but not another? Its ok for one woman to kiss another woman while they are both in bed with a man. But its not ok for someone else who really likes the person (in hand) to give a handjob? Hmmm strange bloody world we live in. Why don't we keep the children out of this and just speak for ourselves. LK - would hope its not too much to ask for. |
