Do you think they should have aired Janice's fit?

[Firewire]

I'm glad we got to see why she went to hospital, but I don't know if they should have aired her fit. It was actually quite hard to watch.

[Xtopher]

It was a bit too far imo

[Pete.]

Not really. For some reason it was fodder for some people to call her fake as well so

[zakman440]

I don't think that they should have aired the fit - they could have just shown what happened before and let Emma explain the rest of the situation.

[MTVN]

Don't think it was necessary really but it's the sort of thing where they'll be damned if they do, damned if they don't

[smudgie]

They no doubt asked her permission to air it, let's face it, the effort she put into that performance no way would she want it shelving:laugh::laugh:

[Josy]

They aired it because it was a fake fit, there's no chance she wouldn't have been kept in overnight for observations if that was a true case of anaphylactic shock.

[jackc1806]

It's a weird one. In an odd way, it was refreshing to see them air something that we aren't 'supposed to see', like the old days on C4.

Obviously the content was pretty horrible, but that's what BB is- a 24/7 reality show where anything could happen.

It clearly wasn't fake :umm2:

Being someone who has seen one of my best friends have epileptic fits about seven times it was actually shockingly similar

[Lostie!]

Yes, but with a warning that it might have been distressing for some viewers (I turned it on a couple of minutes late so no idea if they did or not).

[Josy]

It clearly wasn't fake :umm2:

Are you a doctor?

My father is an epileptic I don't get your point?

Bee stings cause anaphylactic shock not epileptic fits.

[AProducer'sWetDream]

No -but as she didn't have a seizure then I don't see a problem with it. I'm sure the allergic reaction was real and quite scary but that 'fit' wasn't completely genuine.

[Daniel-X]

I know but what I'm saying is it's a fit all the same :shrug:

[Josy]

I know but what I'm saying is it's a fit all the same :shrug:

No it wasn't which is why the medic never assisted her.

[smudgie]

Well, it was clearly obvious to me if was fake.:laugh:
My mother was a fitter...as was our little dog.

[Jordan.]

No, it don't think it was as entertaining as she intended

[Kizzy]

They aired it because it was a fake fit, there's no chance she wouldn't have been kept in overnight for observations if that was a true case of anaphylactic shock.

True.

[Rob!]

No it wasn't which is why the medic never assisted her.

I thought the only thing you were supposed to do if someone is fitting is to leave them to it and make sure they don't come to any harm whilst their fitting?

I didn't personally have an issue with the them airing it - purely for the aspect of it was good to see what they do should a situation like that occur.

She had told him she had trouble breathing (never mentioned that until he asked her funnily enough) he would have at the very least made sure she wasn't swallowing her tongue.

[LukeB]

They aired it because it was a fake fit, there's no chance she wouldn't have been kept in overnight for observations if that was a true case of anaphylactic shock.

How can you say it was fake? Why would she fake it anyway...

[Daniel.]

No but it made me laugh

[BENDERBOY]

They aired it because it was a fake fit, there's no chance she wouldn't have been kept in overnight for observations if that was a true case of anaphylactic shock.

This, they knew it was fake, Janice going for the sympathy Oscar after screwing up with the spitting.

[Denver]

If she had a real fit she wouldnt be out of hospital within hours

[bots]

Are you a doctor?

My father is an epileptic I don't get your point?

Bee stings cause anaphylactic shock not epileptic fits.

thats the facts, she may have become light headed from it, but that won't make her fit.

[Josy]

How can you say it was fake? Why would she fake it anyway...

I can say it was fake because I think it was blatantly fake, it looked fake, the medic stood there watching as though it was fake and he called for assistance as 'Janice appears to be having a fit' which made me think that he also thought it was fake.

I can't be bothered going on so I will finish with.....

Fake.

[Denver]

Also if it was a real fit she would be frothing and constantly fitting not have a little fit fall on the floor and lie there

[BB4fan]

That was clearly fake.

She has no reason to fake having a fit... why would she? it seemed genuine to me, i'm not a doctor but either are you.

[JoshBB]

It's a part of the 'highlights of the day' so yes.

[Lostie!]

Not necessarily.

And she was still convulsing when on the floor, I certainly didn't see her suddenly go still.

Camera Time.

i never saw this what and when did this happen omg

[erinp5]

I have no medical background but it looked fake to me , she "fell" off the DR chair in a very controlled way .I also believe they would have to have had Janice's permission to air such a private moment .
Watching it here I still say it was an act

like she needs to fake having a fit to have camera time.

[Denver]

Not necessarily.

And she was still convulsing when on the floor, I certainly didn't see her suddenly go still.

Her body was not moving much and had that been a real fit the medic would of made sure she was unable to choke on her tounge

[Pete.]

I think there are better things to pick up on for camera time/fairness during a CBB than faking a fit. Surely she can't win :laugh:

[Beso]

The medic could hardly keep a straight face for god sake.

[JoshBB]

why has the entire forum become professional medical analysts.. you know there is a GP shortage right? maybe u can go help out instead of posting all this bs :smug:

We are commenting on what we saw on the show and also our own personal experiences of things, you know like we always do. If you don't like it you can always go to another thread.

[rusticgal]

Agree....however I think Janice would have had to give her permission to show it. I think she would have agreed to avoid being seen as a 'drama queen'...
There is no way they would have shown it without her permission.

[bots]

I was in the bath

.
Janice got stung by a bee and that caused her hands to swell up quite badly. She received medical attention in the DR but the swelling grew quite quickly and she fell off the DR chair and had what looked like a epileptic fit and was taken to hospital.

[Dollface]

i honestly can't tell if it was real or fake and it's annoying me that i don't have an opinion on the matter :(

[T*]

Also after having watched it do you all realise that it may have been a panic attack?
She looked like she was really nervous and getting scared and she could of just had an attack..

Personally I think she has been getting getting lessons from Gillian McKeefe when they meet up for the I'm a Celeb reunions. Fake a fit or a faint, get loads of publicity and a bit of time out.

To discuss her spitting with an agent probably.

Indecision - it's a terrible thing

[Amy Jade]

I'm not invested enough to argue either way but it's kind of laughable people claim it's fake or real based on now their family member or friend or even dog reacted to a fit. Everyone reacts differently.

Her hand clearly changed colour and part of her reaction could have been panic or shock at how fast her body changed and frankly if her hand can balloon and go bright red in mere minutes how is it impossible her tongue swelled too or her throat. No idea if it was fake but I am just glad she was ok when back from hospital.

[Northern Monkey]

They aired it because it was a fake fit, there's no chance she wouldn't have been kept in overnight for observations if that was a true case of anaphylactic shock.

Yep.Emma was doing her best to hold back the laughter after that segment.She knew.

Janice would've been mortified if they had'nt aired that performance.

[JTM45]

I thought she was just milking the attention at firsrt but having seen the whole clip and then looking back at the beginning i think she was genuinely trying not to panick too badly.
I'm not a massive Janice fan and i see right through her usual BS and Drama but I'm pretty certain that the fit itself was 100% genuine!
I know quite a few people with Epilepsy and i've seen a few Anaphylactic type allergic reactions and it convinced me for sure.

I was quite shocked by seeing her have the fit so suddenly like that but i was waaaaaaaay more shocked and stunned by the fact that they actually showed it like they did!!!! It's the kind of in-house BB event that we're generally shown just the aftermath of........"it's 3.45pm in the Big Brother house and Gail is fussing around Janice.......".

I'm betting they ran it by Janice and asked her permission before deciding whether it would be aired. They no doubt would have told her that UK BB viewers love that kinda' thing and that it would get her loads of attention.

[arista]

Bang On Right

[Gillian-73]

It looked fake to me! The way she 'fell' off the diary room chair wasn't real.

[waterhog]

you can not argue with medical - if her body does not reveal any symptoms of her body having gone through such trauma - then its as fake as one of my poems.

[armand.kay]

No was a bit distasteful of them to broadcast it.

[Jay.]

No, I actually felt quite disturbed because she's got really old since I'm a celeb. I felt bad for her, I actually felt like turning the tv off, it's good we got to see why she left, but still. It wasn't nice.

And @ the people saying it was fake, get some taste, she's 60. But I cba to argue either way, her hand had changed colour and I think it was real.

[Josy]

A allergic reaction to a bee sting does not and will not cause someone to fit

:laugh:

I agree i also thought it was fake as did my whole family, she was asked if she was struggling breathing to which she replied yes, but then carried on talking in whole sentences without taking a breath! If you're struggling breathing, then you'll also struggle to talk, and if you were to have a fit you'd black out and have one right there in the chair, whereas she gently and in a controlled manner rolled off the chair onto the floor and turned onto her back, i must admit i watched it a few times! It was like a Gillian McKeith moment:laugh:

Her hand did change colour but that doesn't mean the fit wasn't fake. Fake it was, in my opinion.

[ILOVEJanice2016]

i laughed as she fell to the floor - i thought it was obvious that she was putting it on for the cameras - bet shes done it before in restaurants to give her friends a good giggle

[Beau]

I honestly don't know if it was fake or not but you can fit after a bee sting if you throat and tongue swell and stop the brain receiving oxygen.

Whether this was the case......who knows???

[chuff me dizzy]

If it was a real, genuine fit they wouldn't have shown it

[chuff me dizzy]

It looked fake to me! The way she 'fell' off the diary room chair wasn't real.

Watch it closely, she lowered herself onto her knees ,if it was a genuine fit she wouldn't have been able to do that

[Jamesy]

I liked that it was shown to be honest. Fake or not it felt right for it to be shown, it was quite 'raw', a bit what like what Big Brother should be, showing a true image, straight to the point and blunt. None of this dressing things with with a tiara kind of thing.

I don't really care whether it was fake or not but they wouldn't have aired it without Janice's permission I'd assume anyway, as it's quite a sensitive thing.

[Razor]

I'm not sure it was a real fit or Janice being Janice. If it was real then they maybe shouldn't show it.

[Josy]

um lol?

Um what? I stopped posting in the thread after that second quote which was last night and I couldn't be bothered because I had already posted my point several times and was just repeating what I already posted...the first was this morning. lol.

[Ant.]

Watch it closely, she lowered herself onto her knees ,if it was a genuine fit she wouldn't have been able to do that

Everyone reacts to fits differently though, before I go into a fit I can feel it coming which gives me time to get on the floor

[Gillian-73]

Watch it closely, she lowered herself onto her knees ,if it was a genuine fit she wouldn't have been able to do that

She did, I saw it last night. 100% fake

[Griffin5779]

They aired it because it was a fake fit, there's no chance she wouldn't have been kept in overnight for observations if that was a true case of anaphylactic shock.

frankly that was my impression as well give the reaction of the medical dude who was in the room and the fact that they aired it..she faked it..and they where aware...likely faked the whole stung by a bee thing ...

[Dollface]

frankly that was my impression as well give the reaction of the medical dude who was in the room and the fact that they aired it..she faked it..and they where aware...likely faked the whole stung by a bee thing ...

She quite clearly didn't fake the stung by a bee thing, did you see her hand? It was swollen and purple

[jennyfromtheblock8]

Yes as she had a reaction but she faked the rest

[Griffin5779]

No idea if it was fake but I am just glad she was ok when back from hospital.

if you look you will see i based my opinion on the fact they aired it and the reaction..(or lack of reaction) of the man who was sent into the room to give her medical aid

[notatcreamfields]

True.

True and also anyone who's had a seizure knows you're not "fine" for hours after, certainly not enough to re-enter a game show. Also if she wasn't malingering Drs would not release her and there's not a chance in 1 million years Channel 5's insurers would cover them. Janice wouldn't have carefully lowered herself onto the floor to have a fit and nobody would want something like that screened if it was real and Channel 5s legal team would have told them not to screen because a total narcissist like Janice will try to sue them as she'll do A N Y T H I N G to remain in British news.

On a side note the only thing that would cause a hand to change colour that quickly would be if she was using something to cut off blood supply.
If it was necrosis like she was trying to imply it would be heavily dressed as it would be deeply infected, leaking puss everywhere forcing dressing to be changed multiple times per day and shed be on the strongest anti biotic's administered by most direct route (I.V) minimum of twice a day in diary room.

There's many more reason as to why she was faking but I think I've posted more than enough to prove she was lying......

[notatcreamfields]

Her hand had changed colour because she had a reaction to a Bee sting and if you cba to argue your point then posting in a discussion thread is pointless no?

Her hand changed colour cause she had and elastic band round her wrist. there's nothing else not even an allergic reaction that would cause hand to change colour so quickly. Try it yourself then you too cab have a hand like Janice lol

[Rob4]

Janice = Fake
