In the diary room, Julie said to BB she had a big problem finding reasons to nominate other housemates as she felt she got on with near all of them and had no problems with their behaviour as to her.(i can understand and relate to that).
BB then said to Julie, is there behaviour that housemates are maybe doing to other housemates that you don't like,guiding her to make that a reason for nominating.
She spoke to one of the guys, after thinking about how she saw Danica acting towards him and the other one, asked him if he thought he was being played, he said yes, so she has taken that as a reason to nominate Danica.
Nothing really malicious as to the nomination but a reason, as Julie maybe doesn't genuinely like to think of people being played by others.
As for the ppoints that the Corrie cast members may be too afraid to speak out as to not getting on with Julie, if there is any truth they haven't in the past in the first place,I doubt that near totally.
There are and have been, many feisty characters on Corrie from past and present, very few indeed would be likely to hold back if they really had something to say on matters Julie.
As I said, when she has returned to Corrie, the cast have loved her return and said so.
There are always rumours as to people not getting along and at times it happens in all workplaces too but I think we would have heard loads about this from Corrie actors and actresses past and present if it had foundation.
Even the ones who have been out of Corrie a good while with characters killed off have never said anything like this as to Julie.
I have only really heard it from Nina Myskov, whose entire career has been to put people down,belittle them and be a right nasty person to most in shows she has been on, then the spiteful venomous Nolans who likely see Julie as Coleen's biggest threat on CBB.
Until I hear more solid and factual descriptions from the people who did work for 25 years on and off on Corrie with Julie, I will hold on to what I have seen overall myself, someone who is in my view, fairly genuine but with faults/strong opinions and likely a temper like the vast majority of the human race.

Joey this is a long read,but it gives some insight as to her personality.
For Julie Goodyear the episode could have been entitled The Once and Future Queen.
The idea was for a Coronation Street comeback to reclaim her soap crown after a seven-year exile.
It was to be a publicity masterstroke to give the flagging show the shot in the arm it needed to take on EastEnders.
But the big return has been a disaster. The leading lady has exited, suddenly and amid talk of diva-ish behaviour. Her character, the leopardskin-clad Bet Gilroy, is not expected to return.
'She was very high-maintenance, and that has not changed,' said an insider at Granada, which makes the show, this week.
'She thought she could come back with all her usual demands, but no one's got the time or patience to deal with that kind of thing any more.' Another at the company was less diplomatic. 'That woman always was poison,' was one terse verdict.
'She's the most offensive person I've ever worked with, no contest.'
Insiders say that Miss Goodyear, once the undisputed Queen of the Street with 22million tuning in for her exit in 1995, had expected a level of deference from the young cast which was not forthcoming.
When she first joined the show in 1970 as a mini-skirted model she addressed doyennes of the cast Doris Speed and Pat Phoenix as Miss Speed or Miss Phoenix.
By contrast, this time around the 60-year-old was treated like the rest of the cast. She may have finally got the dressing room she wanted after a minor tantrum, but there was no red carpet welcome.
Some were unhappy at her return, particularly those who had clashed with her before.
'People like Bill Roache were polite of course, because that is the way they are,' a source said.
'But there were worries about her and her demands.'
The new stars of the show were not inclined to make a fuss of her. Indeed, 40-a-day Miss Goodyear was astonished to be told to put out one of her trademark Cartier cigarettes in the now nonsmoking rest area. There are differing accounts of what went on during her 14 days back at Granada.
What is clear is that one Sunday four weeks ago, following a day's filming, she decided she was no longer able to continue.
The actress has said she is suffering from exhaustion and has been resting at her farmhouse in Heywood, Lancashire. There she is being cared for by the latest man in her life. He is Scott Brand, 33, an HGV driver she met when he was delivering goods to her home.
A Granada spokesman said: 'We wish Julie a full and speedy recovery and will talk to her when she is ready about coming back.'
But no one thinks that she will be persuaded to return despite her Ł170,000 one-year contract.
Those who brought her back are blaming each other. 'It always was a terrible idea - it had disaster written all over it,' said one.
So what went wrong? When Miss Goodyear left in 1995, she said she had decided that it was time to move on. But despite lucrative stints in panto, the amount of work she anticipated did not materialise. Meanwhile the Street has appeared to flounder as EastEnders waltzed off with the awards and plaudits.
In came Carolyn Reynolds - an old hand - as executive producer. Miss Reynolds hatched the idea of a return by her old star.
But problems quickly became apparent. Miss Goodyear was used to meticulous rehearsals but Coronation Street no longer has the time for that.
And, with the soap now on four times a week, scenes are shot back to back. She was in 32 scenes in her first week and 29 in the second.
Her performances have been savaged by the critics. Jaci
Stephen, the Mail's soap expert, said: 'Julie Goodyear's return has been a disaster from day one. She left as a pantomime dame and she's come back as one half of the pantomime horse.'
Granada believes Miss Goodyear will expect to be paid to the end of her contract, and is ready to negotiate.
Last night the actress renewed contact with the show's producer. There will be a meeting next week, although the outcome is unclear.
'It's very hard to predict what Julie will do or say,' a source said. 'The situation is a great big mess.'
For now there is no need for Bet Gilroy to come back.
Scriptwriters have rewritten the plot so that, for the next few weeks, there will be mentions of Bet and a trial off- screen over missing money. After that, she may never be heard of again.
