What a let down! - Big Brother

MadBBFanHarry · 12-08-2005, 22:19

When Makosi prepared to leave the house, I got goosebumps. I was saying her praises to the TV screen, telling her to be strong and loving how - in spite of an awful crowd - remained elegant, together and took it all in her stride, looked divine as she posed for the press and dealt with davinas questions and the crowds reactions with poise and honesty. She was completely right, she was the last girl in there and that is something to be proud of. She should have won, and drama does follow her around. I would have liked to see a proper longer interview without the crowd distracting as she was the only one I really cared what she had to say - I look forward to seeing what she has to say now she is out!

One thing that struck me; they refused, all night, to show the clip of Makosi and Anthony 'doing the deed' - from that clip, it really looked like they did go all the way. They didn't show it in Makosi's interview, or in Anthonys...instead just showing them kissing and Makosi saying she is pregnant, again fueling the crowd with their liar chants.

Eugene came across quite well. He's very dull, and I never really warmed to him, but now I am one hundred percent positive I would have preferred to see him win. He was very polite, very thankful to everyone including Davina and didn't have a negative word to say. He's much too wet, but he is a genuinely nice person. That doesn't make good TV, but is to his credit.

When Nadia won last year, I was overwhelmed, completely. Her reaction was genuine emotion, it was a meaningful victory, everyone loved her - the public, and the crowd, really had a place in their hearts for Nadia and it was electric watching her. Flip to 2005...

A very bland ending. I felt nothing when she announced Anthony as winner, and felt pretty aghast when I saw him playing up so much...the same thing that I booed along with the crowd on the way in for. Yes he had just won, yes he was happy but enjoy the moment, don't just view it as a publicity stunt - but then, that is Anthony down to a tee.

The crowd cheered, but there was no will in it, they were just cheering cause they had to, not because they really cared - his interview was suitably short and unsweet. We got nothing about his relationship with Craig other than him being a 'top bloke' and them being 'sweet', and like an 'old married couple'. We had him saying he didn't **** Makosi, and that he didn't learn anything about himself. And he started bad enough with the quip about Eugene's 50 grand - hang on, now you're back to saying you wouldn't have taken it yet we all saw what you said in the diary room when the penny finally dropped the other night. Again, wants to look the nice bloke for the crowd, not the somewhat arrogant arsehole he was.

The real winners on the night? Derek, for getting almighty cheers from the crowd in comparisson to the other freaks, for getting a spontaneous name chanting during Kingas interview and positive mention from Eugene - perhaps if he had stayed he may have won after all. And Makosi. Say what you like - by getting the pantomime treatment yet again that's who we will all be talking about tomorrow...that's who the papers will all be offering the big money deals to, that's who we wanted to hear from. And she looked sensational, a real natural beauty.

But a bland anti-climax, to what has been a highly exciting, gripping and explosive series. I'll miss you Makosi, i'll miss you Big Brother and it was quite sad to see you finish like that.

I was, but I still thought she was fabulous throughout - I prepared myself for it, and I think it just made her seem even more untouchable. I think for many people the only emotion felt tonight would be from her and in her interview, not so much from the people who really should get the attention and goosebumps going; the winner and runner up.

And come Sunday, the nations biggest newspaper opted not to go for the exclusive winners interview because we don't care (the star can have him). Instead signed up with Makosi, gave her 4 pages mostly to herself and the cover and a very sexy but still pretty tasteful photo-shoot. She's the only one to have signed up with a top showbiz agent...only hours after leaving I might add. She's a star in the making already.

What did she do to become a star?

The Makosi eviction ruined it for me. It was a damp-squib.

Merseymike · 14-08-2005, 12:02

Its pretty obvious that Anthony isn'texactly an articulate, deep personality. He is a perfectly pleasant guy, but there's not too much there - a bit of a bungalow!

Comparisons to Jade stick out like a sore thumb. Anyone with the inclination to go back to BB3 forum posts on DSBB will see the same type of comments made about that night as well. I truly believe Makosi will be the 'winner' in the celebrity stakes. She's the only one I will take an interest in post BB. Except Eugene - next new presenter of Braniac perhaps?

Well she's on the front page of the biggest selling newspaper with her story 2 days after leaving the house in 3rd place remember, and has signed to a top showbiz agent. What did she do to become a star? She didn't do anything - she was just Makosi.

Anthony won and i'm sure his fans were very pleased. The biggest mystery to me is why Derek received cheers and Makosi was booed.

If Derek had stayed in there he would have won. I did like Derek, at one point very much so, but I soon saw the sly, manipulative side to him that the forum members saw. Yet the great british public purely saw the entertaining, eccentric, diplomatic and witty Derek that came across and not the clever way he got people on his side, and talked them round to his way of thinking - single handedly orchestrating the isolation and bullying campaign against Science.

Yet the entertaining and pleasant character that is Derek was still there at times, and that side of him I liked. As did the public which is why he got cheered.
