not surprisingly gary is a product of hollywood messy hair carefully held in place with spray

he has been taught 'spirituality' but lacks compassion/awareness to best utilise what he has learned

an academy nominated actor who was shown without direction to be a poor actor ( balloons task ? )

does gary wear a hearing aid? if not...............why not?

Gary has had brain surgery hasn't he?....in which case having a long dishevelled style probably makes it easier for him and hides any scarring.
As far as the hearing aid is concerned..it would help him but maybe pride gets in the way as I can imagine he is rather stubborn...perhaps he feels that he will succumb to one when he feels it is a REAL issue....in his opinion.

...at 70 years of age I wouldn't expect anyone to act 'tough' and risk getting a chill...blanket or no blanket...

He had a motorbike accident in December 1988, which caused Brain Damage (more specifically TBI). You can get strokes after being treated for brain damage if in cold weather, which is why he could not stay outside. He was not refusing, he was literally saying that he couldn't.

Google works a charm

He does wear 2 hearing aids they've been mentioned in conversation but he finds it difficult when more than one person is speaking and because off the accents and when people speak fast. A hearing aid is what it says on the tin its an aid not a cure.

I am hearing disabled, hope it does not happen to you! When in a crowded place its a bit if a nightmare, lots screechy voices all jumbled up and actually quite painful.
What he has put up with in there is awful and I am full of admiration for him.

I agree with you, what you quoted was my response to someone who said why doesn't Gary wear hearing aids. I was explaining that he does but it's an aid not a cure for deafness, there are still times when it is difficult for him to hear even with hearing aids on.

I dont know ,but have read on here Gary best films have been AFTER his accident, so why is he now playing the "ill helpless man" ?

It does make you think, as they say........

Gary had a golf ball sized cancerous tumor removed from his sinus cavity which meant more brain surgery too this was long after his accident.

To say he is playing an 'Ill helpless man' is just awful.

Most of his problems in the house are due to age like his hearing, balance problems and so on, it comes to everyone fgs.

I swear posts like above just show the complete lack of tolerance many have for people with disabilities, brain injuries and illnesses.

Gary displays obvious signs of having a brain injury, forgetfulness about certain things for example (my family member has a brain injury which led to dementia and needs prompts to do things a lot).

Having a brain injury or being 70 doesn't mean he shouldn't be in BB either, he has every right as the rest of them and since this is celeb BB he has more right than some of the other non celebs in there atm.

I so agree. if the grandparents of those who have been so unkind to gary watch BB, I bet they feel ashamed (and worried) about how they will be treated. such nasty people. even those who have not said or done anything are just as bad.

Brilliantly stated. Gary has been treated appallingly by the self proclaimed 'in-crowd' of James, Stephanie, George etc. and they should be ashamed. I wonder how these cowardly bullies would have treated the great Muhammed Ali were he in the house? Would we we have seen reverence for a legend? Consideration for a now old man suffering from Parkinsons? Or we would we have witnessed the same intolerance and bullying from this crowd of non-entities whose ego's are infinitely larger than whatever meagre 'talent' has charitably stamped them as 'Celebrities' in the first place and allowed them to be in the same house as the genuine celebrity they are treating appallingly. Gary to win.

He got older, the scarring and weaknesses from the injuries stayed. We're all going to get older. I hope someone has a kinder attitude to you than you have towards Gary.

I couldn't give a flying **** if Gary or any of them are fake and playing the game which is what BB is, a game to find a winner, at least Gary is entertaining in there, and doesn't have the nasty streak many of the rest of the housemates have. He considers them friends in there, which is more than most of that backstabbing lot think of him. So Gary to make the final please as he won't win as Americans never seem to in the UK BB.

Exactly Suze

Gary is the most entertaining, interesting housemate in that house atm and if it wasn't for him, Frenchy and possibly Audley and Edele then I don't think I would be watching.

Hopefully Suze he will win. If his present fans stay loyal to him then they will vote, I know I will be. I know what you are saying though re the Americans but tbh some of them are far more entertaining than our lot. I only have two exceptions, Jim Davidson and Julian, they were brilliant. Other than that I think the Brits let us down and I cannot honestly see where their celebrity status comes in. Many just show their true selves, which most of the time isnt at all acceptable.

Watched one last night, it was brilliant. Tbh I do not see him as playing the ill man, the reason for not wanting to sleep outside is very reasonable. He then took part and enjoyed the privacy. Even with hearing aids it is difficult as some have noises, on a one to one basis it is good and understandable but when there are more voices, even we at times cannot understand what some of them are saying as they talk over each other so much. I did read somewhere that one of his films was after his accident but the one I saw last night had him as a young and agile person. The Buddy Holly Story was brilliant but once again he was young and agile.

Age isnt a playing field, it brings its disadvantages, one day one could be fine but another ones actions have to be studied for the benefit of the day.

Well apparently in the balloon task according to the rest of the housemates, Gary couldn't act and lost the task for them, so how can he be acting in the BB house then? Can't have it both ways can some
