Poor Imogen; concerned about what's been written about her in the press. If only she knew she need not worry.
I quite like Richard for the fact that he sometimes keeps talking when it would probably be more prudent to shut up. Lisa was obviously baiting him for evidence that he hates her and/or is two-faced, and he gave her neither. For all the veneration afforded to 'straight-talking' by generations of BB Housemates, they don't actually like it very much.
I like this in Aisleyne equally. I thought the conversation between her and Nikki in the bathroom illustrated nicely a lot of what I like about both of them. Nikki is also very direct in a much more preconcious way, I think. She is just transparent in her emotions, and expresses them the same way Pete expresses his internal states - in a series of involuntary outbursts (of varying degrees of explosiveness). And Aisleyne, like Richard, is very good at dealing with them. She listens, thinks about what Nikki is trying to say, and answers her in a way that steers away from confrontation. Nikki listens, waits for her 'brrain to Ab-sorB it', and is sooothed. It's rather lovely.
Nikki's fear that Aisleyne might 'box her up', meanwhile, made me want to box her up and take her home. |
