Why Did Dan not get a warning for Pushing Dexter !!!

[Im_Juz_ChiLLin]

Since BIg Brother made it clear that offensive behaviour or abusive language is not allowed inside the house and whether its a task or not doesn't matter then going by this rule:

At the end of the task Dan physically pushed Dexter onto the bed. Does that not qualify for a warning too? At least be bloody consistent BB.

[Im_Juz_ChiLLin]

Consistency should be applied !!!

[south12345]

Simply because it was all part of a ploy to get a reaction from Sophie and was not meant in a malicious or violent way. Two actors playing a role....

[Shaun]

he wasn't even required for that part of the task, it was Callum and Dexter :idc: such a menace to society

[Marsh.]

Because they were both play acting.

[Im_Juz_ChiLLin]

Because they were both play acting.

So what? Dan was in noway involed with the act... it was only supposed to be callum and dexter and if big brother can warn dexter for saying the caravan comment then he can warn dan to for pushing a housemate as if its a task or not it doesn't matter according to big brothers own words.... :nono:

[chuff me dizzy]

Oh please dont get carried away :bored::bored:

Dexter played a role and got warned so Dan needs to get warned for playing his role as well as some people might find it offensive as well an ex coppa pushing a man onto the bed for no reason....:nono:

Regardless of whether he was involved in the task or not, they were both in on it and play acting.

If he randomly shoved him out of nowhere you may have a point, as it is you're being pedantic.

[Vicky.]

It was all for the task (even if Dans bit wasnt, it was clearly playful)

No-one should have got a warning for anything there.

[cookiemonster]

didn't actually see this, but i see your point. it's pathetic though, Dexter shouldn't have got warned

[Josy]

I don't think any of them should have been warned but since Dexter did get one then Dan definitely should have too, he actually put his hands on another housemate

[Lozzibear]

I don't think Dexter should have had a warning, but he did... and therefore, so should Dan.

[cookiemonster]

has anyone got footage of it? i bet Dan was doing it because he wanted to push Dexter and was trying to make out it was part of the task. just because Dexter's small and light

[smeagol]

why is wolfpig allowed to spit everywhere and not get a warning. dont they have rules of conduct and hygine.
warn them all just for breathing bb are a joke

[sampvt]

Do we need a thread about this, what a load of s.h.i.t.e. Dexter got a warning because he over stepped the morality mark by bringing up her background. Also a load of the afore mentioned.

I didn't think she was from that background. I thought it was another case of people being offended on behalf of others, whether or not it was applicable.

[Jords]

Thats actually a very fair point.

No warnings were needed though, absolute ridiculous.

[Patricia4]

She is dirty

[Visage]

The whole thing is just ridiculous!

[Johnnyuk123]

BB should provide a bucket to hang around Wolfys neck for when she spits. Tell her the public demanded it.

[Johnnyuk123]

We don't even have smelly vision yet but many can smell Wolfy hundreds of miles away from the studio.

[Kizzy]

Dan and dexter were just acting for the task and they did great as did callum, they did great.... warnings, pfffft!

[Kizzy]

As soon as the show started it showed her absentmindedly slavering! urgh!!
I was nearly sick, spitting is one of my pet hates :(

[Johnnyuk123]

We all know how Jackie hurt her wrist, Dan knows too. lol

[sampvt]

Wolfy seems to be the only one in there that the flys visit....Don't flies like poo......now I know why they visit her. Minger.

[joeysteele]

Because it is pretty obvious to anyone watching, that Dan and Dexter had planned all that as part of the task, hence them coming out laughing with each other after it.
What a question,oh wait,it is to get at Dan again.

I think you are way too defensive about Dan...

The point of this thread was clearly having a go at BBs ridiculous warning to Dexter, and saying if he was offensive then Dan must have been too. They are very inconsistent with their warnings..thats what this is about.

Well with full respect I don't think I am too defensive and also anyway I think someone needs to be on here.

On the other thread, which is as to Dexter's warning, I have already said I didn't agree with the warning he got for his part in this task,so no way would I be supporting Dan getting one here.

However, the major difference and I don't agree with the warning issued to Dexter as I have just said, the difference is though, Dan and Dexter will have agreed this plan as part of the task together whereas what Dexter said to Sophie was not agreed between him and Sophie.
Which does make a slight difference,however still no reason to give a warning to anyone in my view.

I cannot see where I am being over defensive as to Dan though, that's quite a thing to say actually, I happen to like the guy and have had a fair bit to deal with on here with no one saying anything to those against him,only those for him.

Totally Agree 100 % :spin:

I agree. Dan gets picked apart for the slightest thing yet certain other HM's can do what they like and get applauded for it. Just one example is that Dan was vilified for confronting Callum about his nomination yet when Dexter confronted Callum about his personality and was unkind to him that was perfectly okay to many.
Dan gets a bad rap on here so it's no wonder his fans want to defend him. Other HM's fans are very vocal about their own fave and at the same time run Dan down every chance they get. It's the way of forums, I know, but someone shouldn't be told they are too defensive when it's pretty obvious WHY they might be.

[CaudleHalbard]

Oh well, it actually helps Dexter if people feel he's been treated unjustly! ;)

[Videostar]

Dan reliving the good old days down at the Yard...he made sure Dexter landed on something soft to make sure no bruises show. :devil:

[Vicky.]

I just dont see the need to see every thread as 'oh another attack on dan'

I like Dan myself, and think he does get a lot of OTT hate, but this thread wasnt even about him..I know it used him as an example, but the OP wasnt actually saying Dan should have got a warning..just that BB should be consistent.

[armand.kay]

Gurl pls.

[Black Dagger]

EJECT HIM!!

:worship::worship::worship:

[Vanessa]

If Dexter and Dan had previously agreed to it then it doesn't deserve a warning. Dexter has warmed to Dan and so have i. But the warning over Sophie was ridiculous. Anything to help their chosen on to win. :bored:

[Donovan.]

I think the difference was that Sophie made a fuss about being offended because some of her family members lived in a caravan, but Dan and Dexter were seen laughing after the incident. Pretty much as soon as a housemate says that they've been offended, BB feels the need to say something.

[cfromhx02]

BB encourages bullying and turns a blind eye to bad language as it knows it increases audiences.

It's only when it's obvious bigotry towards others or when there is no excuse for someone hitting another so as BB can avoid punishing them that they take action,only, only because they have to be seen,so they are not liable legally later,to be seen to be doing something.

Dexter is a scu* bag and he chooses offensive things to say or act around others so brings it on himself giving BB the excuse,as there is an obviously viewable reason for anyone pushing him,to not do anything

[anne666]

Right from now on no-one will make any negative comments about Dan. Tell us what to say OK. Happy now?

[Ellen]

Is there a clip of this?

[muchadoaboutnothing]

Many a true word is said in jest and indeed many a true action is done in jest - bet Dan has wanted to do that for ages - a frustrated ex-policeman.

But as I said with the 'racism' thing..its a very slippery slope if they are going to warn housemates for anything that another housemate says they find offensive. A bit of common sense when dishing out warnings wouldnt go amiss.

Also as I said in another thread I think..Sophie only found it offensive because it was Dexter that said it. I would bet my house that if the twins or Wolfy had said it she would find it hilarious :rolleyes:

Everyone has the right to dislike a HM and give reasons for doing so. It's the unnecessary, pathetic, cruel and childish personal swipes and gibes that make me wonder exactly what is beneath the surface of some peoples dislike for Dan. I could understand it if Dan was a horrible person, but he isn't.

It says more about the people relishing in their little digs than it does about Dan, don't you think? You can learn a lot about people from what they say. I've certainly had my eyes opened.

[CaudleHalbard]

They don't seem to worry too much about quite overt racism on BB USA................

Do America have an ofcom type thing?

I dont watch BBUSA but from the threads on here..I think I would prefer our ridiculously OTT PC BB to whats being shown/allowed there at the moment :bored:

[CaudleHalbard]

Do America have an ofcom type thing?



Yes, the Federal Communications Commission. Not sure whether they wield the same powers as Ofcom.

The BB producers over there seem unconcerned, though.

Hmm. I suppose if you say a program is 'reality tv' then there will be some pretty ugly realities that rear their heads..

Still dont think I would be too comfortable watching real racism though..especially when that person could go on to win. Its not like ours where the public can vote them out for being dicks :S

This is most likely true, but then again comments like that sound different coming from a friend than they do when they come from somebody that you have a known disdain for.
If one of the twins/Wolfy had said it the way Dexter had said it(yelling and calling her a little **** or whatever he said) I'm sure there would be some type of reaction. Probably not the claims of offense, but something.

[Marcus.]

when was this

[daniel-lewis-1985]

No he was acting.

[Bluerang1]

He gets involved in someone else's issue yet again.
