This ^^ seriously pisses me right off :rant:

[Iceman]

Why??

[Pete.]

At least he would be spending it on Jewels and Drugs like most will

[chuff me dizzy]

Im sure he's earned enough in his career,but I will give him the benefit of the doubt, IF he want to raise money to pay for his mum, just do it !! Don't splash it all over the internet

[Beso]

i find it strange she had to sell her house at the height of his fame.

Same here ,doting son who's using her to win a tv show

He didn't splash it over the internet.

It came out on some crap site after he was in the house.

I was wondering why she was so emotional when the camera was panning to her when he went in.

This is actually genuine but lets get this straight hes got his pay so letsnot vote for him to win based on a good deed we still need a ****ing crazy winner lol.

Who put it out there ? He must have made sure it was going to come out after he went in, just as countless others have done before him

[LukeB]

yes trying to help your mother is a bad bad thing :rolleyes:

[chuff me dizzy]

Erm hes on national tv its pretty obvious hes in there.

[Iceman]

Using your mother is a bad thing

He's doing it for money for his mother not using her.

[LukeB]

Using your mother is a bad thing

How is it? He's showing us what he's going to do with the money.. would you rather him lie about it? like he is helping her not using her

[chuff me dizzy]

Ok love :pat:

[Iceman]

Help and use seem to be the same thing now.

[Stevep]

Using your mother is a bad thing

If 'using' his mother in turn helps his mother then....that's a good thing for him and her, surely?

[LukeB]

Help and use seem to be the same thing now.

I know right.

I see no problem with what he said. It's actually a decent thing to do, which i'm sure everyone would do if they was in his situation

[chuff me dizzy]

I hope they would, but to use his mother to win a show on pity is sickening

[Iceman]

I know pretty weird to think he's using his mother. Seems like a genuine great thing to do in my opinion. More power to him.

[Kizzy]

It's a fact I guess, care homes are expensive and this will help. Shame they didn't keep the house and rent it out to help towards the care bill :(

[Niamh.]

I agree. It's almost like saying he doesn't like his own mother which I'm sure is far from the truth. Publicising it is good for awareness to that awful disease as well

[Iceman]

Yeah that's another great point Niamh.

[Jamie89]

Using your mother is a bad thing

Even if he is publicising if for cynical reasons so what? If it's helping his mum that's a good thing. Anyway, I don't think he is because we'd probably have heard about it already. It wasn't even mentioned in his VT. So he's hardly splashing it round. I imagine he was probably just asked in an interview what he'd do with the money and he gave an honest answer :shrug:

Should he have lied?

[chuff me dizzy]

I would have more respect for him ,if he had said this AFTER the show had ended ,not while it was being aired

[Niamh.]

Why? a good deed is a good deed and donating money doesn't win shows for people anyway, if it did Duncan or Kieron would have won IAC

[Gusto Brunt]

John gives me the creeps.

[Smithy]

At least he would be spending it on Jewels and Drugs like most will

I see you bitch

[Glenn.]

I can't see not wrong in it. He doesn't get any prize fund so I doubt he's using it as an excuse to win. He's got his cheque.

[Beso]

It will all be forgotten about once the shows finished:smug:

[chuff me dizzy]

Exactly, odd that he's never spoke of his mother illness before isn't it ?

[LukeB]

Exactly, odd that he's never spoke of his mother illness before isn't it ?

Maybe because he wasn't asked? maybe he has but you just don't know about it? Like seriously why is doing a good deed such a bad thing? He's helping his mother which is really sweet. He loves his mother thats why he is doing this..

[Niamh.]

Never before?

Ok then he has and I've not seen it, but still stand by my original post where i think he is using her

[Niamh.]

He quit his job in Eastenders to care for her, doesn't sound like the actions of a heartless user to me, sounds like a loving son :shrug:

[Glenn.]

But for what? How is he using her?

[chuff me dizzy]

Each to their own as they say

[rusticgal]

TBF....unless he walks he has the money in the bag. If he had to win to get the money then I can understand the thought process of 'using his mother' to win.
However, it's different in CBB, I don't think it makes any difference.... I think he is going to be 'the do-Gooder' because he probably is just a genuine nice and giving person...but that might start to grate on the public.

I know he gets the same pay no matter who wins, but its making statements like this that gets people the pity votes something i despise ,win on merit not the best poor me story

[Glenn.]

So?

[Ashley.]

Cast that man to the hell below! What foolishness to be so selfless! Let him pay for his sins!

[Beso]

Why would he need money for her care then?

[sampvt]

Ive never been a big fan of sad sob stories. Everyone these days have them because they think it gets them the sympathy vote. Personal problems are called ''personal'' because they are just that 'personal' so when they come out time after time, one has to believe that they might be being used as a tool to gain an advantyage. Now this may not be Johns motive, but he needs to reign it in with the heart on his sleeve type of stories just in case he gets tarred with the wrong brush.

Seeing as how he has been in 2 daileys already regarding his mum, I cant see that this release was a pure accident. I am siding with the fact that he has done it deliberately and this does not sit well with me. That's twice my x fav has disappointed me.

[Niamh.]

Well that was back in 2012, as I'm sure you're aware Alzheimer's gets progressively worse

[Beso]

Well that was back in 2012, as I'm sure you're aware Alzheimer's gets progressively worse

Yes, but he must have known that when he quit his job so early?

And wasnt she there last night in the crowd, not a good place to be taking someone with advanced alzheimers really.

[Niamh.]

So what are you saying now, that he's lying and she doesn't have Alzheimers? And yes of course he would have known that, I don't see the point you're trying to make? He wanted to look after his mom while he could probably, I don't know I'm not a bloody mind reader

[Beso]

Well if shes in the crowd watching him go in then her alzheimers hasnt progressed far enough for her to need expensive care in a hospice, maybe hes saving up i dont know. Maybe he needs the money to pay for her care while he spends a month away from her in the bb house. Who knows huh.

From the article :

She did live with us as a family, and in March of this year we felt that we could no longer meet her needs, and she moved into a facility

I love how you can decide how much care she may or may not need by the fact that she went to a show and they dared take her out of her care home though

From my experience once in a facility unfortunatly its a rapid decline from there and I'm shocked and surprised they would take her out of those surroundings to such a confusing and loud event, but i guess he needed the full effect of the awwww factor.

just wow that you would think that he'd be that cruel and sinister towards his own mother.

[bots]

in civilian BB i can see it being an issue as it may sway people to make someone the winner, but all the celebs have to do is their time and they get their fee, they are not going to refresh their careers. I'm sure they all know that.

[billy123]

He gets the same money if he is out first or wins it is irrelevant.

[Beso]

just wow that you would think that he'd be that cruel and sinister towards his own mother.

Did i say that she was that far gone? No, no i never. I said in my experience people go into a rapid decline once in the hospices.

But hey, its still a rather irresponsible place to be taking someone who suffers from this disease due to all the confusion and especially the loudness surrounding the event.

So shes either pretty far gone that he cant cope at home anymore so should be somewhere where she feels safe or shes not that far gone that shes needing a couple of hundred grand to pay for her care!

[Niamh.]

Ok Dr.

[seanraff07]

Some sick minded folk in this thread.

Reading far too much into everything, get a grip.

As soon as the violin comes out I go off them

[Kazanne]

I like John and would like him to win,I liked him before I knew about his mom, I don't see anything wrong with him wanting to do this for his mom,It's the papers printing it,not him.

[iRyan]

This thread disgusts me.

[Papillon]

I hope they would, but to use his mother to win a show on pity is sickening

John already has the money in the bank, providing he doesn't walk or get thrown out ... so why would winning this show make any difference :shrug:
