complaints over Rodrigo joke

[brian3]

BB and offcom will be swamped when they show it on the HL show. How could they think the people would find it ok. There will be charges of racism from some people to.

[noobism]

I think it will REALLY depend on how he takes it...and i cant see him taking it well...I certainly wouldnt.

[Jordan.]

It was out of order to do that. Even to make him right a letter

Yeah, you're right its out of order, clear favouritism giving Rodrigo a moment that is unfair on the others as they wouldn't have this same opportunity. So wrong.

He's an idiot for believing it though, bless him, far too simple for his own good, no wonder he gets on so well with Sophie.

Exactly. It's not clever but it is funny. For a lad who claims to love and respect the Queen, he's a bit dense as to how she looks or would act. Strolling in to have a cup of tea in the Big Brother studios. ARe you having a laugh? It tickles my funny bone anyway.

Come on people is only a game show. get a grip or urself

[noobism]

Hah I would not either.

Essentially, the HMs are keeping it a secret from him to win the prize, but he's going to look at it as betrayal. It's not gonna be pretty.

[brian3]

The point is there are many viewers that will not be happy. It will be seen as making fun of a foreigner. BB should have thought of the backlash they will get

[Vicky.]

Its not because he is a foreigner though, its his obsession with the queen.

Anyone complaining on grounds of it being racist is ridiculous.

I can't wait for him to turn green as the incredible sulk when it does kick off. He can't complain, it was BB that did it, if he complains then he is being disrespectful towards BB. Still he's never been one to ignore things to suit his own stance (why has he not moaned at Sophie for breaking the rules this week)

Someone comes to the uk from another country. Talks non stop about how much he loves the uk and the queen. Then they play a mean trick on him. A trick that makes fun of his love for the country. Some people will view that as racist.

Oh no doubt he will be a big baby about it.

I'm surprised after all these weeks, he still trusts BB. That man is a bit naive.

Its cruel, yes, but not racist.

But some of the people who do think that can be very vocal.

[*mazedsalv**]

If that gets complaints then its pathetic, because first of all, everyone should know that the Queen wouldnt go on BB.
I understand why last nights HL show got complaints but for this it will be pathetic.

Let them complain. Nothing will come of it. Not from that angle anyway.

Maybe thats how you see it but the way i see it is this, he has gone on and on about the queen since he has been in there so what better prank than to get a queen lookalike and play a prank on him.

Are you saying that because someone is from a foreign country you cannot play pranks or jokes on them? are saying only UK citizens are allowed to have pranks played on them in the UK and on TV shows?

Give it a break and stop trying to find fault in places where is none, Jeramy Beadle made a living and name for himself doing such pranks on British people and we all laughed and had fun with Watch out beadles about when we where younger.

ITS A JOKE LIGHTEN UP AND GET OUT MORE, maybe you should stop seeing Rodrigo as a foreigner and see him as a Person like anyone else.

Some people will view jelly babies as racist. There comes a point where common sense has to override, or else nobody will dare say boo to a Goose.

Well they are all a little bit simple and naive at times, except Marcus who has that level of cynacism coursing through his veins. If he genuinely believes that the Queen would take time out of her schedule to go into the BB house and have a one-to-one with him then he clearly is deluded, and implies that maybe he doesn't know that much about our Queen.

Has he been saying all this just to gain citizinship? He doesn't need it after all, he has an Italian passport doesn't he, well he can work and live here all his life then, but he wants it still. Don't trust him, don't like him, hope he looks a right Charlie when this blows up.

Incidentally we should have done away with them years ago.

At no point did I say that that was the way I felt. I do however know that there would be people who would feel that way. I am just saying that I hope BB knows the flack they will get.

[Wildcat!]

LMAO, how gullible some people are:tongue:
Rodrigo knows very well , its not the queen. HE is just playing along for the fun of it. HE probably thinks he will fail the task if he doesnt play along. LOL!

Really? Would you think that by entering a tv game show you could meet one of the biggest heads of states in the world? and be left alone in a room with her?

Someone has said he's playing along, we'll have to see if thats the case, I don't know though, the singing of the national anthem makes me think he believed it all.

[Wildcat!]

Appearance, I am pretty sure he was just playing along. HE was just sitting there having a normal conversastion. YOu think he would even be able to talk normally, if it was the queen. He doesnt want to disrespect the queen, so thats why he just pretended it was really her. He is not a 5 year old.

im sorry but LOL that was so funny ! :laugh:

[luminoussun]

God!! He should be kicked up the ass for being so gullible

[Enid]

I just find it a bit odd how anyone could idolise the Queen as much as he says he does.

The whole thing is just laughable. :laugh:

[boomoo]

There is absolutely nothing about race involved in this task.

He has lived in this country long enough to know what the Queen does and does not do.

If he does not read newspapers or watch TV news that is his problem. If he 'loves' the Queen that much he must refer to her website and learn what she does.
I think his constant talk is to do with being given permanent residence.

[CaudleHalbard]

Rodrigo knows very well , its not the queen. HE is just playing along for the fun of it. HE probably thinks he will fail the task if he doesnt play along.

I'm 50/50 on this one. Part of me can't believe a 23 year old man (he's not a kid) could be that naive.

But maybe he is.:bigsmile:

Some people take BB too far. What next? The sniffer dog was not an actual sniffer dog and was racist to real sniffer dogs. :laugh:

is this comment slightly tongue in cheek because if it is a real observation then you really need to get a life,,,,racism indeed,,its these type of comments by the pc brigade mean life is just that bit stupider

[boomoo]

Rodrigo is stating his allegience to the Queen because he thinks that is the way to be given permanent recidency.

[Shasown]

There we go Endemol manipulating all the viewers again, oh look poor rodders being made fun offiving him todays sympathy vote.

I just hope they do the same for Lisa in the next few days

[Shasown]

Great isnt it, Endemol manipulating the viewers in Rodder's favour, getting him todays sympathy vote

All I can say is when are they going to give lisa some task in order to get her some sympathy?

IF you ask me, he doesnt really. Its just something he thinks will endear him to the british public. Its fair enough, I dont blame him. BUt he knows she is only the queen because she was born that. NOthing to admire anyone for.:spin2:

[mother6]

It's a game show which they all signed up for, it supposed to be

entertaining at the HM expense. Some people take things far to seriously if it

upsets you don't watch.

[merv]

I can't believe the stuff folk complain about, Jean Charles?as been hired to do this since the 60;s.
Not sure if anyone wants to find my post,either here or digi-spy, but it was my suggestion the night they got him to write the letter

[quietman1963]

It's just a light-hearted wind-up. It was hilarious seeing Rodrigo saluting and singing the National Anthem. Can't believe people are taking this so seriously.

[keithafc]

I'll be completely honest about this. Anyone that complains to Ofcom about this is a ****ing idiot. I don't care what anyone says. If some one seriously think's that's racist. They need to get out and seriously get a life.

[Chuckyegg]

Gord shave they quin!

[incywincy]

Man, if he truly believes that he was talking to the Queen then he deserves to be the butt of the joke.

How can anyone in the right mind, foreign or not, believe that the queen would really come to see him at the BB house.

He's been over here long enough to know the form, especially if he loves the monarchy as much as he says he does

[Rob!]

Nothing racist about this but....Bless him lol. It's a bit mean, especially if he really thinks he's met the queen....
Marcus will probably set him straight though, break it to him gently....very gently or he may hit Charlie...

[nellysjade]

I think he knows as she doesnt look much like the queen:tongue:

[merv]

I reckon he fell for it hook line and sinker.
Nobody on the telly look the same in real life, and it is the extra things they add to create the real deal effect:wink:

[Rob!]

Just watched the full vid....

He....is...gonna....go....APESHIT.....
