Rewatch Big Brother 2007 YouTube stream (10-12 Oct & 17-19 Oct)

A little throwback for this forum and could be way too niche but apparently the fake Zach was someone called “Tina Arena fan”? I can’t be the only one thinking it right?
 
Actually the only amendment I would make to my above post is separating the likes of 2004’s Paul, 2006’s Michael and 2012’s Benjamin from that list. They would go into a completely separate category of game player, joining people such as 2007’s Hayley/Andrew, 2014’s Priya, etc. The exception is 2013’s Tim who kinda falls between both, but more so the above.

The others mentioned are collectively similar, if we’re talking specifically about those “creating and evolving” a character in the house in an attempt to win over the audience and housemates. 2014’s David is another example of this I just thought of.

Anyone who thinks that’s not possible to achieve is naive.
Would you have Joel on that list? Gretel seem to call him out about that at his eviction (though not at much as Jamie).

Yes, I would. He’d fall under the overplaying a character category, rather than just letting loose and showing any side to his personality that wasn’t a “comedian”.

Just watching Travis, Billy and Zach discussing this in the rewards room.That he would play it up when he knew he was being watched, FNL in particular.
 
It’s one of my pet peeves when people claim it’s not possible for a HM to “pretend” or “not be themselves” for a long period of time. Of-course it’s possible.

…the gays pretended to not be themselves for years. :cool:🤪
 
That gives me flashbacks to when Ben Norris would really switch it on during nominations and try to be sassy and entertaining. The operative word being try. He even said something like “hello people of Australia” so was acutely aware of the guaranteed airtime.
 
Random observation but I just noticed Rita, Perry and Michelle were all a very similar archetype of Intruder that they put into the house over three consecutive years.

They were always basically the same person to me, in fact Michelle and Perry almost blended into one in my memory. But on this rewatch I honestly didn’t mind Perry at all, I wonder if I’m just getting old.
 
Guess it worked for him considering he won.
To be fair, Tim from 2013 is the most popular example of somebody who played the house and audience like a game of chess, and also won. His game was, in my opinion, the best by a HM on this version of BBAU.

From memory, there was a video of him detailing how he did it while he was on Big Brother Canada. Does anyone know if that clip is still around?

Maybe this one?

Actually when watching S6 I initially mistook Perry for Michelle then realised I was a season out.

Rita not so much.
