Ulrika-ka-ka-ka!

Congratulations to Ulrika Jonnson on winning Celebrity Big Brother and I'm pleased she did. The odds were stacked against all the women, with most of them being voted out relatively early, and even LaToya Jackson being evicted on Wednesday, leaving Ulrika and four men in the house. I never understood why Verne was the favourite and it would have been wrong for Coolio to win after his bullying tactics, so I'm pleased the final came down to Terry Christian and Ulrika - I would have been happy for Terry to win as well.

She was plainly being herself, not looking to use the show as a springboard to something else, a little bit bossy, a bit opinionated, but obviously being herself. She didn't spend an age getting her face and hair ready in the morning, choosing what to wear and all that. She's a mother of four and doesn't have the luxury of time. She kept expecting to be voted out and yet there she was tonight, the last one standing, with everyone voted out before her.

Good on ya, Ulrika!

Although I wanted Verne to win, I am happy for Ulrika , the show and the media had set her up at this years villain but he came across well and far more likeable than Tommy or Coolio
