He could actually win to fill the Ukraine quota

…he won’t get my votes but I do like him, he’s really not done anything to not feel that he’s presented himself/his character etc, really well in there…in terms of BB, he hasn’t seemed to have a huge amount of highlight time and so might be seen as boring…but I think in any conversation/in that context, he’d be interesting to talk to …I felt for him when he was concerned about something he said and a term he used, which he wasn’t sure if it would offend…?…and obviously he was extremely concerned to have reassurance that he hadn’t offended…I imagine with his Strictly contract, he was very concerned about ‘cancel culture’…would/could he be cancelled …and he’s worked hard to build his career…plus now, Fern is painting him into somehow being insensitive or ageist …and Strictly does involve their celebrity dancers being a diverse age range….so he’s obviously had a few bumps and hiccups in the house…?…but still, he became that human sacrifice that no other would throw themselves in the burning flame of public vote…

…he has great hats also…well one hat in particular that I’m fond of…

Yeah, Fern shouldn't really be doing that.

She should already know what it's like to be blacklisted, so to try and do it to someone else with those accusations is bad imo.

i don't think nikita is a particularly nice guy. A few times now it's been pretty obvious that he has a nasty streak. He seems to be forgiven that because he is a pretty boy, and that doesn't wash with me

Tbf, at least someone is pretty in this series of CBB.

[Ammi]

..what were his nasty moments…?…I can’t recall atm but might have been focusing on other things…

i've seen the sneer on his face, like i say, he fools a lot of people, but i've seen it a few times now

[joeysteele]

He's on here exactly as he is on Strictly.
Inoffensive and accepting of the situation of the programme/show.
It's why I like him on Strictly over the years.

Plus he's just been the same on CBB.

Fern is in a smouldering strop because her attempt to get Louis out backfired.

She has to be able to question and say whatever she likes.
As to the others.
However thinks she should not be nominated by them repeatedly.

She came across terrible last night.
I like Fern .
However she was bordering on ridiculous last night in her attempt to create drama with Nikita.

I applaud him for not really rising to it but politely making his point

He's just a really nice guy.
It's sad to think being nice is seen as a negative.
In fact really sad.

….the highlighting edits can be very sneaky and manipulative in capturing ‘those angles’ as well and maybe making them look a certain way is what I’m thinking…?…I haven’t seen that from him tbh…but I do know feel that BB production/editing etc is a sneaky beast and not without its wicked ways…

Unfortunately Joey, being genuinely nice can go un-rewarded in the entertainment industry, and sometimes even with the public.

Definitely true.

I've seen BB over many years make nice people seem like they were horrible Human Beings on the highlights.

i don't watch strictly, so i have no preconceived notions on the guy. I'm only going by what i've seen

I think BB does capture the moments, Zeze being the prime example

This is why I could never understand people saying ...Oh I have BB on in the background, I mean you have to watch every minute, because sometimes it not about what is said, but a look or a touch or some other nuance

I agree with you Cherie! I like to be sure I don’t miss anything when it’s on.
As for Nikita, I personally feel he has been very curt towards Fern and not been particularly interested in her from the beginning. To me, it has shown in his face because he has a very slight ‘smirk’ behind her back.

Still, Louis is my choice for the win!

You are dead right there Mock.

I have to agree with you here, Joey. I wasn’t sure what I would think of Nikita when he went in, but I think he has repeatedly shown himself to be a kind, considerate and very compassionate person. He has been calm, positive and cheerful in the house too. To me, he has come across as a genuinely good person.

Some people have an issue with him, and seem to feel he is targeting Fern since his nominations were revealed. However, he has to nominate and I would imagine he has not been the only one to nominate the same person 3 times. If he was as unpleasant as people are now feeling he is, surely it would have been noticeable from what he said about her in the diary room during nominations. Yet, nobody seemed to notice anything at the time.

I don’t remember what he said for the later nominations for Fern, but the first time he said that she was separating herself from the group, and choosing to spend a lot of time on her own. He wasn’t the only one who said this, and the fact that Fern has been up for eviction a number of times, shows it’s not just Nikita who is voting for her. He is just being condemned because BB announced his nominations, when in fact they all need to choose someone, and it is logical to choose the person he feels he has connected least with.

I also have to agree with you about Fern’s ridiculous behaviour last night, which to me demonstrated much more of a snide and nasty streak. I would have felt exactly the same as Nikita if someone approached me in that way and said the things she did. He calmly and politely dealt with the situation and stood up for himself. Credit to him, as it was nonsense.

In my view, it is Fern who is targeting Nikita now, and she is trying to make him feel uncomfortable because she can’t deal with the fact he has nominated her. She needs to get over herself and remember it is a game, rather than taking everything so personally. Strangely enough, in contrast to Nikita, Fern’s behaviour throughout this series has made me like her less and less.

Thank you Garfie.

I agree too with all you say in your post above.

A very strong summary of the whole scenario.

I totally agree...and I would love to know why. Has Fern been on Strictly?...if she has maybe it stems from there

[Tizmee]

I don’t know whether she’s been on Strictly or not, but I just think Nikita has had a dislike of Fern since the start - I have no idea why, but he’s just too smug and frankly, a rather boring young man.

.

i think absolutely ANYBODY in there would have picked louis, it was obvious and the producers knew that. "attempt" sounds to me like she planned this, it was the obvious choice to send the troublemaker and sh*tstirrer home
