View Full Version : Helen Makes some good points but...
Helen can sometimes make some really good points, when she argues with people she rarely doesn't have a good point but it's her delivery of it that fails her every time, her argument with Ashleigh as an example, had she taken Ashleigh to the side and they had it out between themselves then she wouldn't have came across so badly IMO.

maybe so but the fact is what she was taking Ashleigh to task for is nothing she hasn't done herself, infact she's been far nastier, except she's done it to peoples faces which then goes from bitching to bullying. I don't get the logic that it's ok to be rude and nasty as long as you're rude and nasty to peoples faces?

So if someone has a problem with you, you would rather them laugh and snigger and bitch behind your back rather than come up to your face and say it as plain as day right at you?
Never bullied at school were you?

I agree that it's not ok to be nasty either way behind backs or to someone's face but I suppose saying what you think to someone's face is more upfront and honest?
Helen was more pissed off at Ashleigh for trying to mastermind Ash's eviction and Ashleigh was very smug about it all in the DR lets be honest? when the rest of the girls were worrying about who would be facing eviction because of them.
This is what caused Helen to attack as soon as she got out of the task room, not Ashleigh bitching IMO.

Well, when I look at what Helen did to Christopher and Jale in the beginning calling them "slug" and "wasp" shouting boring at Christopher when he walked past, shouting at jale for being in the same room as her......yes I would choose the bitching with a friend option everyday.
No, I wasn't bullied at school, I don't see your point though. Helens way looked much more like bullying to me :shrug:

Its because Helens emotions are always at the surface, unlike Kim, who has none. I thought it was admirable that Helen defended Ash in that argument and I was disappointed in Jale, that she tries to be soooo controlled about it, that we see nothing of her real feelings. Helen gets angry at someone, she lets them know straight away. Kim and Jale are just always playing to the cameras and dont want to rock the boat for fear of going home!
I didnt like Helen at first, as you may know, but she is now my favourite, because this is Big Brother, we want to see a house full of emotional wrecks, thats why we watch it!!
Can you imagine a house full of Kims???? zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Yes Helen can definetly be a bully, if a bully is a person who shouts obscenities at her enemies, but I love that about her. I want to see someone show every emotion they have, every time they are in a bad mood, or in a really good mood

But insulting someone to their face isn't being honest, it's being unnecessarily
rude and spiteful, where as having a bitch with your friend about someone you don't like is quite normal and i would guess what most people do? I don't care if someone I don't like is talking about me behind me back, I don't even like them but I would find it quite rude and possibly intimidating for them to come up and start insulting me :shrug:
tbf to Ashleigh though, she was "being honest" in the Diary Room and answering leading questions by BB, this wasn't supposed to be shown to the HMs so it shouldn't have mattered

Well you see, when a bully approaches their victim face to face, they are putting their own neck on the line, as there is more than a good chance they are going to get (to put it nicely) shot down (not literally).
If there is a faceless entity taking it upon themselves to ruin you behind your back there is nothing you can do about it, as they are hiding in the shadows.
I was bullied at primary school, behind my back
Nobody would even speak to me for the entire time I was there, and I had no idea why
I was bullied in the first year of comprehensive
This particular bully came up to my face trying to throw his weight around trying to intimidate me...let's just say he didn't do it again.
It is for these reasons that none of what you say constitutes bullying, and is also the reason that Ashleigh is by far the worse person.

Bitching is something everyone does yes but Ashleigh was at the point that she was doing it constant and calling people nasty names every time she did it, doing nothing else at all apart from that even her Mum told her in the clip to have fun with the housemates she did like and smile a bit.
I know Ashleigh was being honest in the DR but she was still smug about it?
Which is what I think caused Helen to go mad about it, nothing to do with the bitching. And why I also think Helen had a good point but the way she went about it all made her look like the bad guy.

Good points or not, Helen call out other people for stuff she does herself. What's more, she never sees herself as being in the wrong. She belittles and ridicules people, forgetting that she herself has constantly bitched about other housemates and said some pretty strong stuff. I know plenty of people on this forum have been bullied and I bet those who have can see in Helen something spitefully familiar. She's a nightmare.

Wel being sneaky about it she has every right to be pissed off. Granted after the first clip she completely forgot Jale and Kim's input, but whilst everyone else seemingly struggled with the decision Ashleigh purposely excluded Helen from discussions as though her opinions weren't equally important.
If Helen did that to Ashleigh excluding her from it all and plotting as though she didn't matter then the word "bully" would no doubt come up again.

I know what youre saying, of course in real life we dont go around doing that to people we dont like, but most of the time, in real life, unless its someone you work with, youre not really gonna be around people you hate, are you?
can you imagine having to live in a house with several people that you actually dislike intently, Id be rowing every day lol
so I think the whole thing is designed to set people on edge, and if youre the kind of person, who is a gob****e in a row, then youre gonna do it to the max in there surely??
Think of it this way, you work at a place with 12 staff and you hate 4 of them, thats gonna really ruin your job for you isnt it? But even then, you get a few hours off, at home or out, to chill and realise that you cant let it bother you, in there, you just have to lump it

Maybe Helen hasn't tried to orchestrate someone's departure but if she had the brains for it, she'd probably have given it a go. But then, everything else she's done kind of makes up for it.

That's because you're looking for isolated clips. They don't make stand alone clips of every single moment in the house.
Like I said, if you are so interested in finding this other warning then your best bet is the highlights shows. Channel 5 have uploaded all of them from launch night to Demand 5.

I'm a Helen fan and she was definitely reprimanded (not an official formal warning) about 'behaviour which could be deemed to be bullying' after the Jale incident early on in the series
However, that reprimand came after days and days of screaming and wailing online that they weren't doing anything about her behaviour and so they were backed into a corner and felt like they had to do something to shut people up. Helen hasn't bullied anyone, she has been a **** to people and been unnecessarily cutting and nasty in isolated incidents, but nobody has been bullied this series.

Did you just ignore my post?
They are in the HIGHLIGHTS SHOWS, the full episodes. They don't make an individual video for each moment or incident.
And if rumours are to be believed they'd need to open a separate blog if they were to record every warning she's had.
Find the highlights show from around the time of the "slug" incident.

The word is mentioned, but it is 'behaviour which could be deemed to be bullying' because as I said the only reason they pulled her up on it was because most people online were moaning they weren't doing anything and some were even complaining to Ofcom (as if that would do anything, it'd make it worse)
You'll need to go and search the episodes back on Demand 5. I can't remember if it happened in an episode I caught up on from when I was away over the weekend of 12th June - 15th June or whether it was on the Monday 16th/Tuesday 17th. I'm pretty sure it was one of those episodes that week though, I returned to see people on here complaining about bullying, I was worried to watch the episodes back to see it unfold and once I had I thought everything had been blown way out of proportion, I have a feeling they reprimanded her early in the week beginning Monday 16th
The only way you are going to find it is if you skim through the episodes on Demand 5. It definitely happened though

Well, physically murdering someone is a more black and white issue I would have thought then deciding what does and does not constitute as bullying, not really comparable Verbal and why on Earth would Big Brother warn someone and use the word bullying if she was doing nothing of the sort? :think:

If she actually was bullying people they'd say 'Big Brother deems this behaviour to be bullying and is issuing you with a formal warning' (there's no interpretation mentioned whenever they are serious about a warning), the fact they said it could be interpreted as bullying speaks volumes about whether they consider it to be IMO and I think it's basically saying 'a lot of the viewers think it's bullying so we're telling you'

I'm aware that for some reason Helen has fans but I don't even know why it's still up for debate whether or not she's a bully. She has no redeemable qualities of her own so she operates by making outsiders out of others and shouting them down so they have no voice and her cronies stay loyal to her, since she can't simply have friends with her abhorrent personality. Like, in at least the most playground sense of the word, she's a HUGE ****ing bully that is pretty much fact.
