But Helen Wood and Marc O'Neill appear to have saved their flirting for the outside world.

The two BB stars reunited this weekend for a partying session in Marc's hometown of Dublin, but took a break from raving for a good old snog.

The pair, who met during Big Brother's explosive Time Warp week, hit Sin nightclub in Dublin's Temple Bar for a DJing public appearance and took to the decks - Fatboy Slim, eat your heart out.

But the feisty friends took their eyes off the job briefly to pucker up, with a headphone-clad Helen leaning back to kiss Marc.

Ewwwwwwww. To quote Stephen Fry: sometimes there just isn't enough vomit in the world.

Hope it's just PR showmance.

Her outfit is absolutely awful. She might as well have let her tits out altogether. Slapper

[vafunghoul]

Good for them.
Far more respectable than that wimp Cristian and his cartoon rap or Angry Danny and his obsession with his image.

2 imperfect people who spoke their minds in BB16 this year and woke up a house full of pansies.

[alex_front2]

Her outfit is awful, but it's a classic 'I HAVE HAD A BOOB JOB, EVERYONE, LOOK! LOOK AT MY MASSIVE JUGS, NO LOOK.'. It's a boob job dress.

[y.winter]

Suddenly I really like Kimberley and Steven.

I guess the end is nigh. D:

Well that's one way to look at it...

[Lostie!]

I don't think Marc is even half way to being similar to Helen and believe the comparisons between the two are pretty unfounded ... but he makes it hard to defend him there when he's joined at the hip with her. :facepalm:

[Kazanne]

LOL,LOL at all the supposedly Helen and Marc haters making a bee line for this thread,there's no shame in admitting you like them ,more threads to come I reckon,bring them on.

It wont last long. Cant help but wonder what Helen does with her son whilst she of on all these Jaunts, especially now that the holidays have started.

[Kazanne]

:nono: No need to bring her son into things,I am sure no ones kid is welded to them at the hip,he will have a father,grandparents relatives friends etc, a very low blow to have a go at her,but I'm not surprised tbh.

[fitz2k2]

wowwwwwwwwwwwww 2 honest couple hanging out wowwwwwwwwwwwwwwww lol.at least its not 2 fake people like Josie n that other blonde kid.

[BB4fan]

They are amazing, talented and all the in between.

They are welcome back on BB anytime. They are truly amazing.

[BB4fan]

Has Aisylene got her bf yet...??? She could date the BB loser Danny if she's not to 'ghetto' then they can hit the bins in London together like two old tramps while Helen and Marc live it up.:cheer2:

Even basic Danny didn't want that,he wanted Jasmine,Helen and Marc on the otherhand did have chemistry when they first met.:wavey:

[alex_front2]

At least these 2 won't be bothering other people, thankful for this small mercy.

[Gusto Brunt]

Marc got it free then

Yes the sort of blow that Helen herself would happily dish out to someone else.
Quickly followed by her fans both agreeing with her, and making up all sorts of excuses for her, just to feed their delusion that their "heroine" is decent human being who care so much about them all.
The majority of people cant stand her, get over it.

You don't know that,you are surmising what you THINK she would do,So if that is the case ,that Helen would say such a low thing,you have done exactly the same so what makes you any better? infact I doubt Helen would bring peoples kids into things,I have no delusions of Helen either,but I DO realise she is human and not perfect,and I would rather be in a minority than run with a crowd.

[just thinkin]

Tell all that to Rooney family & the other celebrity families she was happily going to ruin in the press for the sake of money.Okay they shouldnt have touched her with a barge pole, but like your heroine they to are flawed human beings. Had she been allowed to do it, their children would have been affected and Helen would not have given a damn, just so long as she got her money. Thankfully the law put a stop to her.
Further more you call me low, for daring to express concern over the welfare of a child, but you support some one who likened Brian to rapist & Serial killler, just because he had the temerity to disagree with her, I wont go into what she did to people like Jale (I see others on the forum are dealing with that one anyway) She will continue to behave this way as long as she is getting both the attention and the money. You may be happy with this but I am not, even at the risk of being called low. You support a bully if you want to but dont expect others to just follow either Helen or you. Now that her time is up, hopefully she will crawl back under the stone she came from.

[Robodog]

Love it. Two of the all time greatest BB housemates.

Stood their ground in the face of Brian and Danny's aggression, and despite all the constant hatred and insults from Aisleyne, Nikki and the BB/BOTS hate mob (ie - hypocrites who cannot see that their own insults are actually worse than anything Helen and Marc said!) - these two are still coming up smiling, full of life and humour.

Long may it continue. If for no other reason but to p--- off the hypocrite hate-mob!

1. She said he LOOKED LIKE a rapist/murderer not because he 'disagreed with her' (there was nothing she actually said for him to disagreed with!), but because HE physically and verbally intimidated HER, pointing in her face, shouting personal abuse whilst being physically restrained by other HM for the THIRD TIME that week! She said her comment in retaliation to HIS unprovoked aggression.

She was half right at least - he DID look like he wanted to kill her!

2. You saying that Helen should 'crawl back under the stone she came from' is a nasty thing to say, making YOU no better than whatever you say Helen is. Just one of many examples of hypocrites who somehow think they claim the moral high ground on verbal abuse by making verbally abusive comments themselves!! LOL

smh how can people defend what Helen said lmao

[Jack_]

I think what's most offensive about this is the idea of Helen Wood DJing. I mean celebrity (or z-lister) sets are fine so long as you know what you're doing, and somehow I doubt she does. I sense a button pusher :bored:

It was half true - he DID LOOK LIKE he wanted to kill her!!

How people can defend Brian's aggression is the real worry - Helen hadn't even done anything at that point to deserve his 3 aggressive onslaughts! No wonder she retaliated in the end and insulted Brian back on his third attack.

She had every right to retaliate; just like Matthew had every right to retaliate to Helen when SHE was the aggressive one last year, standing over HIM like Brian did to her.

No one moaned when Matthew retaliated to Helen, but everyone was up in arms when Helen retaliated to Brian! Talk about hypocrites!

Helen's verbal retaliation was harsh, but Brian's verbal AND physical intimidation of her was worse! And he started it!

At least Helen didn't need physical restraint like Brian did.

[ItWasJustBanter]

Brian Belo came across as a total nut job mates, like his wacky friend Nikki. They may both end up bouncing off rubber walls somewhere at some point. Helen was just speeding up the process mates.

This sounds like the typical "blame the victim", stance that is adopted by many bullys. Brian did nothing to warrant being called either of those things, there should be no excuses made for it. As for my comment on Helen well it really is quite mild in comparison to some of the things both Helen and her fans have said. Thankfully I am nothing like either of them.
However I accept that "this is a free country" and if you wish to support to support bullying in any way that you want to you can.
Meanwhile I will continue to exercise my right to speak out against it, which is something I do in my non forum life. Have you ever considered doing any victim support work?

How on earth can anyone be anti bullying when they have said such vile things about her? the mind boggles,so much hypocrisy it stinks, you can label Helen supporters 'bullys' if it makes you feel better about yourself,but you are wrong,simple as.I work in a school,so I don't need anyone telling me what sort of job I should be doing,it's rather arrogant to presume you are right and others are wrong,we just have different opinions.Thankfully,we all see things differently.

I also work in the education system,dealing with students, in a major university that has adopted a zero tolerance attitude towards bullying, so do not presume that I dont know what I am talking about. I am not a hypocrite, and do not feel bad about myself, or my attitude towards bullying so do not need Helen fans to"make myself" feel better as you so arrogantly put it. However you are right we do see things differently, and we should all be allowed to express our opinions. I think it is time to move on with this thread,
and have decided to stop reading it, so there is no point in putting up any more responses.

It probably won't last, because Marc is off to a lab in America.

Do not try and spin this around like i am 'supporting bullys' when i am the one who is being objective enough to say that Helen AND Brian's comment's were wrong! And YOU were the one (not me) making spiteful comments when you said that Helen should 'crawl back under the stone she came from'.

I am not the one making spiteful comments about a HM like you did! You cannot call others 'supporters of bullying' when YOU the one making spiteful comments like that! If you don't like Helen for her 'spiteful comments' - why make them yourself?!

What is REALLY happening here is that you are taking sides and being unfair in that you are happy to deride Helen for making 'bad' comments, while making 'bad' comments yourself about HER. Not only that, you are also refusing to recognise Brian's aggression and verbal and physical intimidation of Helen! You say 'he's done nothing wrong'?! Do you honestly think then it is 'ok' for him to stand over someone, pointing and shouting abuse in their face whilst being physically restrained!

Did you think it was equally ok for Helen to do that to Matthew last year then? I didn't.

In my eyes, Helen was wrong last year with Matthew and Brian was wrong THIS year with Helen. I do not let my bias towards one housemate influence my sense of right and justice - as you clearly do. It's the BEHAVIOUR that's the issue here not 'who you like'. I'm not on any one HMs 'side' regardless of their behaviour. I like both Helen and Brian for different reasons and i am able to say with objectivity when Helen is wrong AND when Brian is wrong.

You however seem to have one rule for Helen and one rule for others. What is the point of celebrating your 'education work' whilst clearly displaying such hypocrisy and also making similarly spiteful comments about Helen?!

Plus your sarchastic comment to me regarding victim support is below the belt. I HAVE worked with victims and i always maintain objectivity and not let my own personal bias affect my sense of fairness, justice and sympathy. But if a colleague was to display the kind of bias and hypocrisy towards people that YOU have shown towards Helen, and especially if they were to make a spiteful comment about someone like you did about her, then i would look to have them sacked.

But like you say this IS a free country and you are free to be as hypocritical and as spiteful as YOU like. Just as i am free to tell you i think you should look in the mirror and double check the unkindness and hypocrisy in your OWN comments before making them. You cannot expect to take the moral high ground by acting as bad as the people you say are wrong! For someone who claims to work in education, i would hope that was glaringly obvious.

Okay, lets put this into perspective here. Yes, Brian was emotionally upset and aggressive but does that excuse Helen saying he looked like a murderer and RAPIST - I mean WTF - NO. Hell, no. Absolutely NOT. (Let's not forget Helen's part of antagonistic sneering which seems to have been deleted form the history book.) If you were in a heated argument with someone in the safe confines (let's face it) in the BB house would you excuse them if they called YOU those same things? You could say they were threatening, or over - the - top as Brian seemed to be. But to say they looked like a murderer or rapist - come on now - would you be so understanding if it were you on the receiving end? It's disgraceful!

As for people saying derogatory things about Helen. Is this a world where Helen can call someone a paedophile with no evidence whatsoever and tweet horrible things over and over and bully people like Jale and Matthew yet everyone is supposed to be all sweetness and light when talking about her? Is everyone supposed to take the high road and be little angels? Are you living in the real world? Of course people are going to REACT. There is a MASSIVE difference between REACTING to the awfulness of someone like Helen and being the INSTIGATOR in the first place like she is.

You accused Susie of being hypocritical and 'spiteful'. WTF!!! What you are basically saying is that the likes of Helen can do and say whatever the hell they please but if anyone dare react and tell them where to shove it then they are as bad, if not worse than Helen herself. Are you serious?
Awful people like Helen are going to get negative comments - unless you live in la la land where people can do and say what they please with no comeback and if that is the case why on earth do you you watch BB?

[MrWong]

The two most desperate fame*****s on this years BB. :yuk:

Like i said i'm not taking 'sides', i happen to like Helen AND Brian. This for me its about HMs BEHAVIOUR on a case by case basis.

Helen WAS wrong last year, standing over Matthew and verbally abusing him - once. She instigated it then.

Brian was wrong THIS year by doing EXACTLY the same thing but worse; standing over Helen and verbally abusing HER - THREE times. HE instigated it every time THIS year.

Was Helen wrong to retaliate verballly to the angry man standing over her while being physically restrained and shouting 'YOU'RE A SCUMBAG' in her face and tell him he LOOKED LIKE a rapist/murderer? (Rapist was OTT, but then so was Brian's aggression. As for murderer? He did LOOK LIKE he wanted to kill her!)

Was Matthew right to retaliate verbally to Helen last year when she stood over him and call him a 'pigeon chested tw*t' and make insults about her breasts etc?

Surely Matthew had every right to insult Helen back in the face of HER intimidation, just as Helen had the right to insult Brian back when HE was the instigator. THREE times no less.

Like i said, it's not about excusing Helen: i don't. Helen was awful last year. Brian was awful THIS year. I have no problem recognising Helen's bad behaviour but it seems many many people refuse to recognise BRIAN's bad behaviour - mainly due to their flat-out hatred of Helen. Remember: everyone was verbally abusing her even BEFORE she entered the house. These people jump on Helen the minute she says a bad word but when Anyone says anything bad about her they ignore it or explain it away as 'Helen deserves it'. It's totally one sided and unfair.

If you agree that Helen was wrong to intimidate Matthew last year, then surely you must agree that Brian was wrong to intimidate Helen THIS year.

If not then you must be biased against Helen. Unlike me who maintains an objective viewpoint about HMs behaviour regardless of 'favourites'.

As for calling the previous poster 'spiteful', i didn't. I called her comment 'spiteful' where she said Helen should 'crawl back under the stone she came from'. I mentioned this only to highlight the hypocrisy of so many Helen haters who have this double standard whereby they berate Helen for her 'nasty comments' and do so by making 'nasty comments' about HER!

It's like writing 'I HATE PEOPLE WHO USE CAPITAL LETTERS!'. Do you see what i mean?

Sure anyone can say what they like! Equally i am entitled to point out their hypocrisy.

The main thing here is this: I'm not making a case for Helen, i'm making a case for FAIRNESS - whether it's Helen OR Brian doing the instigating or insulting - you cannot treat them differently and right now there are lots of people with 'one rule for Helen, one rule for anyone who insults her'. That's not fair and it's horrible to watch.

The main thing here is this: I'm not making a case for Helen, i'm making a case for FAIRNESS - whether it's Helen OR Brian doing the instigating or insulting - you cannot treat them differently and right now there are lots of people with 'one rule for Helen, one rule for anyone who insults her'. That's not fair and it's horrible to watch.


I can see you are trying to be fair, and I agree with what you are saying up to a point. However, I didn't say Brian wasn't wrong, he was very aggressive and threatening. But what you didn't mention was that Helen was goading him on with blatant delight on her face at him losing it. Then to say he looked like a rapist and murderer could only serve to inflame and antagonize him further when he already was clearly at boiling point. It's like those people who goad by saying 'Come on, hit me!' hoping that you will and then they'll have you for assault.
As for people being hypocritical - Helen put herself out there of her own accord to be judged on her behaviour when she entered the BB house, like the rest of the housemates. She puts herself out there to be judged when she tweets horrible, untrue things on a public site. Most BB house mates get a lot of stick on the forums, and those who are pretty awful people like Helen, get it with bells on. Do you really think people on a forum should only say nice things about nasty people to avoid being called hypocrites?

So it's not really fair to accuse posters of being hypocrites and having double standards, which especially seems to be the cry of those who like Helen. It seems to me just a way of deflecting from Helen's behaviour by putting the heat on the poster. After all, what is the BB forum but a place to discuss and yes, judge, those who have voluntarily put themselves forward for our scrutiny. It's totally unrealistic to say 'If a housemate is mean, don't be mean back or you're being a hypocrite!!!
Isn't that hypocritical in itself?
Even basically decent HM's get nasty things said about them, and I'm not a fan of that at all, but if a HM is known to be generally mean to people and posters on a forum need to vent and say something like 'let them crawl back under the rock'...etc then fair do's. Should a poster think' Ummm, I can't say that because if I do I'll be called a hypocrite'? Talk about being too PC these days? Are people going to get called out on a forum now every time they are a bit hypocritical - because we ALL are to some extent. It would be a strange and boring forum if we all had to scrutinize our words in case we have said something bad about a HM who has willingly put themselves up to be talked about and who came across as pretty awful, like Helen.
After all, it could be completely turned around and it could be said its hypocritical to call someone out for being mean when they support Helen despite HER nastiness. Right? But nobody goes on and on about that.
I'm sick listening to the words 'double standard' and 'hypocrite'. It's bloody tiresome!!

Thank you for the above. I havent been on the forum for a couple of days,
because of the reaction of robocop, and a couple of others making personal judgements, even suggesting I should be sacked from my job for expressing my views and all without having met me! However Im a strong decent caring
hard working person (as my friends & family will confirm)and will continue to express my opinions even if they dont match other peoples. We all have the right to freedom of speech and that also includes fans of people like Helen. I guess there are just times that it is best to agree to disagree.
Anyway I wish Robocop everyone else well, and look forward to CBB.

This is what I call a debate.^

Trolls take note.

You're welcome! I'm bloody angry - how dare they...
Oh the irony. People making personal judgements on you (a poster on a forum specifically designed for individual opinions) for making personal judgements on a HM who put herself out there on the public domain for 'you to decide'! Isn't it laughable (and what is that word again - oh yes - hypocritical).

I made MY judgement and that is that Helen is the biggest knob, the biggest ****, the most self - absorbed and one of the thickest and most unaware people I have ever come across, and that isn't just on BB either. And like yourself, I wish she would crawl back under that rock she came out of - which she will be doing very soon as she made a complete bollocks of her second chance on BB and showed herself to be the mind numbingly one - dimensional one - trick -pony bitch she was in her first free pass outing. She opens her gob and what comes out is nothing but cliches and obscenities and inaneness. I will never in a million years respect a liking for the creature, and it's good to have a forum to say so. So there. :laugh:
I just pity that poor rock she is destined to crawl into.

Yes we do all have a right to express our opinions here, however much we disagree; that's part of the fun of the forum. It's a shame you felt the need to step out of the forum for 2 days due to your becoming upset during the ongoing Helen debate.

I was upset too when you sarchastically suggested i was unfit to do care work, when all i was doing was highlighting how horrible it was to see so many people insulting Helen this year (even before she entered the house), just as i hated to see Helen being the aggressor in LAST year's series! I was being objective about Helen and only trying to be fair.

But rather than shy away from the forum and from your unpleasant and rather high-handed suggestions about me being unfit for care work, i opted instead to express my feeling back to you in your own manner by saying that if a colleague of mine had displayed favouritism/double standards like you had towards Helen, then i would look to have them sacked.

There was no personal slur or suggestion that you should actually be sacked (you're right i don't know you and i'm sure you are a lovely person!). All i did was merely throw back the verbal 'tennis ball' to you, the one that you had just thrown at me!

If you hadn't made the sarchastic comment about me being unfit for care work, then i would have nothing to throw back at you. Do you see? Surely you cannot expect forum members to be silent when you make those type of comments about them first? If getting a response upsets you then i can only advise you not to make the first strike yourself.

However, i too wish you well. I hope you enjoy the new CBB series and yet more lively debates on the forum!

Love and peace to you and yours.

ps - the name's roboDOG not roboCOP :hehe:
