The only time Sara's face truly lights up is when someone accuses her of getting off with someone so she can bat her lashes and say 'Noooooooooo!? Oh my god?! I waaaaaaaasn't! Was that what it looked like! Oh my God! Nooooooooo'. Boring, boring, boring. Least deserved finalist ever. Famous only for standing in the ashtray smoking fags and incessant flirting with Rex, Darnell, Lisa, Stuart and Dale.

Harsh, but very fair

Great read but not palatable for the deluded Darnel and Rex lovers

Meat and two veg for me, though.

She also said that she wouldn't mind if Mikey won either.

Later during Davina's interview - just to recap for viewers who didn't make it past three minutes before curling into a ball behind their sofas howling 'Make the scaryshoutywomanbaby stop please!' - Kat was in full throttle. 'When you make good fwend in house, it very important to keep fwend Davina!' Kat sobbed, before whipping up the crowd into a chorus of 'If you're happy and you know it clap your hands.'

did she right that especially for Bunny

not bad, though Grace isn't anywhere near as funny as when she wrote in Radio Times

With nothing to back this up but an opinion, I'd guessing she'd be damning of some of this year's crappy BB moments

Agree with all of what Grace says in that report.

especially this part...

"Hey they can give him a cookery show and he can behave like Gordon Ramsay and roar at people and make them cry!? Won't that be great? People lap that type of thing up. Well most people, I prefer The Hairy Bakers with their soppy love of a nice pie and a well risen sponge. I like all the laughing and being lovely and treating people with respect. I'm clearly completely mad."

though I always thought they were called the Hairy Bikers.

I thought she was Bunny...

Dent has been right off this year. I blame it on her being employed by 4 instead of by RT.

I mean , come ON what's this about?

'Oh my gosh, Mikey' Rachel said suddenly, 'I feel sorry for the poor spiders out there.' Mikey looked worried. 'Do you think they'll all get soaked?' he said to her. Mikey's terrified of spiders but ten weeks of living with his insect-rescuing friend Rachel have changed him slightly. 'No, no... I think they'll be ok,' said Rachel sensibly, 'They'll crawl under leaves. They'll use the leaves as umbrellas.' It was a lovely moment of genuine, honest friendship.

It was a moment of sheer primary school teacher-ness as she patronised Mikey Wikey yet again. Dent wouldn't have gone all soppy like this last year.

Rachel is so childlike and childish (e.g. Mikey Wikey), that I should think it will be hard to see who is the teacher and who are the pupils!

Although one of a teacher's most important attributes, I believe, is the ability to be enthusiastic and to encourage every pupil. I should imagine Rachel would take genuine delight in each child's progress. Perhaps particularly in the achievements of that naughty boy, 'Wrecs', who keeps pulling the hair of the lovely Cerys in Primary One.

Empathy is also vital, I would think - to be able to put yourself in the place of a child who is suffering. Surely a primary teacher receives education and training as to the realities of life for some children. So if - or rather, sadly, when - she encounters children who have traumatic lives, she will have some understanding, and treat the children with the care they need.

Rachel has demonstrated kindness, good humour, restraint and enthusiasm in the house. I'd be happy enough to entrust my child to her care.

Oh yes, same here. I think she will make a good teacher, so long as she doesn't let the children walk all over her. She will need to exert some sort of authority over them though.
