    personally ive never been the biggest of pete fans, at least not someone to gussest he should win. However he is the favourite, all the girls love him, and he has seemed destined to win BB since Nikki left... which if anything helped him cos Nikki fans are pete fans after he pinned for her.

    But the usual trend for people who are very popular/famous and in the tabloids everyday is for people to get sick of the favourite, to not like who everone loves i.e prove their unique, this can often even lead to envy/dislike of the favourite like the way in football people are starting to turn on chelsea "their ruining the game" like man u before.

    Is this going to happen with Pete?
    has it already happened to you boards posters?
    and therefore will people just vote for who they would like to win as apposed to pete?


    although for his case, he would be one of the better ones IMO simply because he is the only one who used to go into the diary room and talklike a member of the public and essentially psycho-anylise there childish interactions.

    for me tis Glynn for teh win! (tho i wont vote tbh)

    Yes I am so bored of Pete and I want anyone to win but him. He is such a fence sitter and knows exactly what he's doing. Im also bored of his "wackiness" and im not talking about his tourettes, he is more than capable of talking like an adult but in the diary room he talks like a 5 year old. He doesnt provide much entertainment for me and im confused why he is considered so perfect and innocent( has threesomes, takes acid whips his langer out on national T.V yes the perfect role model). BB are trying to big up Glyn to offer some competition and I think it could end up being close if they keep doing this. Pete not to win. My vote is now behind Imogen, she has grown on me!!

    I got bored after BB2 and just feel that it has been overkilled and haven't watched it at all this time.

    Is it just me or are the people getting less interesting every year:confused:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,498 ✭✭✭iFight


    Nah, Pete is the best house mate, there is no way I could get bored of him more than the others, most of the others (bar Dikki & Spiral) I am already getting bored of


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 17,485 ✭✭✭✭Ickle Magoo


    There are others that bore me more but he certainly isn't as interesting as he used to be :(

    yep the simple question to anyone who would vote for pete is at that point would you be sitting there doing as the person above states or would you be having your first bath in months and eating chocolate? miss dickie, need more space etc... bull**** wants to be percieved as not needing material things and feeling bad that his poor guard friends werent eating any chocolate with him:rolleyes:

    tho he did mention Glynn as a above mentioned "Nutter" yet he doesent always seem to be playing to the cameras like most of these "Nutters" he just stumbles by it laughing wishing he had some black pudding and maybe people just might notice that if BB push it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,457 ✭✭✭Cactus Col


    yup ... been saying it for a while, he's a sleazy little bastard, but (unlike sezer) he's sneaky about it, plays up on his tourettes, practically begging for sympathy.

    Sad thing is, he'll probably still win it.

    Don't forget the bondage and fetish clubs, and the fact that he is Bi :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 24,924 ✭✭✭✭BuffyBot


    At the end of the day, he's the best of a bad bunch. No one else in there even comes close to being half as interesting.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,894 ✭✭✭Chinafoot


    I still quite like him and would like to see him win over the rest of them tbh.
    I'd like to see Richard up there too but I doubt it'll happen. The rest of them drive me insane.
    Mikey - soooo bland. He's just dull and does nothing other than fawn over Imogen.
    Imogen - dull as dishwater. Does nothing but fawn over Mikey, say babes, and agrees with everyone that bitches to her.
    Aisleyene - one of the biggest game players in the house. I cannot stand this girl.
    Suzie - yaaaaawn
    Michael - that boy has issues.
    Jennie - not the worst but pretty dull.
    Glyn - sad little boy who thinks he's the man.
    Spiral - quite possibly the dumbest thing I've ever come across. He's an embarrassment and a total sleaze.

    So uhhmm yea....Pete to win :)

    What annonys me about pete is that it seems most of the time he can control his tourrettes but plays up on it every time he enters the diary room! I do like him a lot but he hasn't really opened up and talked about his life as much as other housemates have. I don't think he deserves to win, and I'm gettin quite sick of his wackyness. Glyn is a bit of spa too imo. I can't stand the way he laughs, and how over excited he gets about that secret room. I'd like one of the people who says Imogen to win to actually back up why, or give any reasons why they like her? What does she actually do? She is THE dullest person to ever enter that house bar maybe Sunita!
    Spiral to win I think, he's entertaining to watch, all be embarrassing most of the time. I don't mind Mikey anymore, basically because he's a lot cleverer than first seemed. Michaels a bit of entertainment too. Jenny is especially boring, and I don't like Ashleyne because of how she spells her name. Also the way she pretends to be innocent and a real good girl, when in reality she's a complete slapper and will be gettin her tits out the day she leaves the house!

    I don't agree with that statement at all. What I see is that his tourettes goes out of control when he is excited or nervous. So what if he hasn't spoken about his life outside the bubble. Maybe he wants to protect it....I dunno! :rolleyes:

    Pete is the sanest person out of a very boring bunch of saddo's. Saying that my liking for Richard has grown in the past 2 weeks since the outsiders joined...

    Pete to win, Richard 2nd....:D


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,286 ✭✭✭SprostonGreen


    God yeah, I'm sick of Pete. He is a shadow of his former self and agree that he plays on the sympathy vote.

    Also I dont like the way he criticising Spiral when he first came into the house.


  • Registered Users Posts: 961 ✭✭✭AthAnRi


    I think Petes a good guy. He wears his heart on his sleeve and when he is in good form, which in fairness is more often than not. I also think that he is quite witty except sometimes people seem to miss his comments.

    However I want either Mikey or Glyn to win. I could easily see myself being mates with those 2 guys. Both of them are always up for a laugh and they are rarely in bad form.(Having verbal disagreements does not constitute bad form) Having said that neither is Imogen. Maybe she's not the most exciting girl around but she is a good kid if a little bit dim.

    Aisleyne is a thundering rap. Not at all surprised she was the most Machiavellian housemate. Even she knew she was going to get it. If they show that competition again watch her reaction before the results are announced. she is soooooo manipulative and scheming it's not funny. Gotta give her the cleverness but she only cares for herself. False as Fook

    Richard is a knob. He is constantly having digs at Imogen even though she hasn't done anything against him. Remember he told that colossal prick Seazer he would 'protect Imogen and that was a promise'. Well the only person that she needs protection from is that wanker. If a normal heterosexual guy mad those sort of remarks to a girl he would be considered aggressive but in today’s PC society it's ok for Richard to make these kind of demeaning comments to a girl that is much younger than him.

    I don't particularly have much against Suzie but I do think she is a tad sly.

    Jenny pretty little thing but a little bit immature. However I could see myself getting on really well with her on the outside.

    That is what I think and what I would like to happen. However his is how I think things will happen

    1. Pete
    2. Glynn
    3. Richard
    4. Mikey
    5. Aisleyne
    6. Imogen
    7. Jenny
    8. Suzie

    Spot on!! I Couldnt agree more. Espically the Glyn guy, he's a feckin twat. Myself n the misses cant stand him. Whales this and whales that..... I've never been to whales...but he's totally put me of the place!! :o


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,322 ✭✭✭Hitchhiker's Guide to...


    "Glyn to Win" for me!! Such a funny guy.

    Pete is brilliant, but only problem is that if he wins he will have uncontrollable tourettes and the interview will be terrible. His tourettes seems to come out really bad when he is nervous (e.g. in diary room, or when he initially went into the house).

    He will win, but i'd prefer Glyn to win instead. He just reminds me of how embarassingly dumb i was at the age of 18.

    Fed up of them all except the lovely Imogen

    Yes I know her accent is terrible and she is no fun BUT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    i respectfully disagree - her accent is lovely!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 83 ✭✭joeblogg1


    Soory for offending the Welsh accent.

    I still think the rest of her is all lovely!!!!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 478 ✭✭GretchenWieners


    Yeah I'm actually bored of Pete now. He's not even as interesting as Susie for me!! At least she talks about cups of tea! But I like his attitude and letting it all out. Sets a good example y'know for people with Tourette's who are in pain. I used be allergic to Richard but he's probably my favourite now. He comes out with some classic one liners!

    I personally loved Pete for the first month or so, then he just seemed to hit a pit of depression and he dosen't seem as happy as before. Tis a shame, he was a great housemate.


  • Registered Users Posts: 26,061 ✭✭✭✭Terry


    stupid british tv viewers. they voted nikki out and the house has been dead since. pete got boring after 5 minutes, yet british viewers voted out the only interesting person in the place.
    no, it wasn't a fix. watch little brother or big mouth and keep an eye out for the genuine surprise from russel and dermot at her eviction every time her name is mentioned.
    my new personal favourite is jenni. imogen was up there, but now her future lies in presenting shows on the soft porn channels on sky.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,807 ✭✭✭chump


    I'm slightly bored of him.
    I do think he's a decent lad and wouldn't have a bad word to say about him, but he's a wimp.
    Needs to learn to speak up and out and not always try to be the cuddly nice-bhoy.


  • Registered Users Posts: 478 ✭✭GretchenWieners


    He's after cheering up a bit though since he got that letter, it was so nice too!!


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Education Moderators Posts: 27,188 CMod ✭✭✭✭spurious


    That letter has sealed it. He's unstoppable now.

    Well you shouldn't be put off Whales, they never did anything on anywone, well except Moby Dick. But seriously Wales is a good place, far nicer than England and the people are good fun too. You can't blame a guy for loving his country.
