Liam, it was really nothing
Posted by Will Parkhouse
It was a one-minute decision that they could’ve got disastrously wrong. But I think when Carole, Seany and Jonathan decided Liam should be the one to get the £100,000 Big Brother put on offer last night, they probably chose wisely.
Ziggy was mooted at first: nice guy, but it would’ve struck a bum note. He’s already Mr Perfect – we don’t need him walking the streets of London with a bucket of ready-cash to throw to mewling orphans as well. And at 26, he almost seems a bit old to be graced with the benefits of a beneficent benefactor.
The twins? Well, while it would’ve been funny if they’d just given it to Amanda (or just to Sam), setting off an epic saga of sibling squabblery to span the generations, but they’d only have spent it on a crapload of tacky pink paraphernalia. Living in a house in which every single item is bright pink is fine when you’re an 18-year-old girl - but hit your 30s and it’s kind of creepy.
Think how wrong they could’ve got it, too. “We’ve decided on… Charley.” All smiles and happiness at first. Skip forward half an hour and Britain’s Most Hated Woman would’ve been bragging like the world was about to end and only a massive amount of bragging could save it.
Nah, Liam’s about right. The young and humble tree surgeon would never have put himself forward for such riches – and that’s as good a reason as any to give him the 100 grand. Maybe he can buy himself a new chainsaw. With diamonds on it.
Who do you think they should’ve given the money to, and why?

i'm glad they picked liam to have the money,he's very down to earth and a typical lad.my boyfriend is mates with liam dad and he said they are such a lovely family and if anyone deserves it them its them.

Liam should win i think he is really fit and canny even though he has already won money he deserves to win he is a lively funny joking character and should stay.... Ziggy is ok but his face looks like a cats ar*se ... Sam and Amanda are getting quite irritating

If Liam is so "nice" I think he should have agreed to share the money with all of the housemates. I think that it is so unfair that somebody should get all of that money without the public being given a chance to vote. What happened to Big Brother YOU DECIDE. Now people are saying that he should win as well! Let's not encourage him to get too greedy.
