The thing for me is that I liked Estelle. I spent an awful lot of money saving her and I would never in a million years spend that sort of money on BB ever again...however I also know that most of the reason I did that was because I felt sorry for her and I didn't want any of those other arseholes to win. After Ray left (who was my favourite and was coincidentally one of Estelle's few friends) I was stuck in a position where I didn't love any of their personalities and I adopted Estelle as my new favourite because I saw her as the best of a bunch of very annoying (and in most cases) nasty personalities. If Estelle had have been in the most recent series I doubt I would have supported her the way I did, given this bunch were a lot more likeable and I don't think they would have done to Estelle what the previous ones had.
However although I supported her because I loved how strong and resilient she was through their torment, her personality drove me up the wall at times. I thought at times she tried way too hard to come across as unique or quirky and that wasn't really who she was. As much as Tim's "I'm so unique!" crap pisses me off sometimes, you can tell that at the core he is genuinely quirky. Something about Stell though always seemed a bit artificial and less than genuine to me. I don't know what it was but she never seemed to have much depth emotionally, and I'm still not sure if we really saw who she really was at the core beyond the skater or hippy personas. I still obviously liked her more than the others regardless. Whoever she was she seemed like a nice girl who did not for a minute deserve any of the crap they threw at her.
