There aren't ANY showmances

[elliebrew]

There are NO showmances

What we have is a married man willing to cheat on his girlfriend on live TV, a married man trying desperately to make out he doesn't have feeling for a girl who is sensible enough to not go there and a lovesick middle aged man falling in love with a woman whose engaged.

No showman's. Some inappropriate crushes maybe

It could be fascinating.

[Black Dagger]

Aye yeah. Thrill a minute it could be.

[Fetch The Bolt Cutters]

It won’t be fascinating

[Cal.]

It’s not going to be fascinating though.

It’ll end in those 3 men being championed in the top 3 whilst the 3 women (2 of which have no interest anyway) will be vilified and evicted from the show because of it.

It's all genuine as well. Could make good TV to see how it goes. Now that the scripted fake OTT girl has gone we can actually see what happens.

Lee/Jasmine/Casey was a great Storyline and increased the ratings, this could be similar, who knows.

It could be fascinating.

or it could be uncomfortable to watch knowing it's ruining various families and children, you decide !

Yeah, a woman ruining a family and man cheating in his wife on TV is not going to be good viewing.

i can't tell if this is sarcastic or not but if children are involved it does not make for nice viewing at all. period.

[Black Dagger]

Literally seen a cheating storyline with Steph and Jeremy as well so it's not like it's ground-breaking television either that shocks us.

It certainly could be, Ben to be the next Craig Coates :omgno:

No :laugh: i actually don’t think it’s going to be fascinating to watch or nice viewing. Its actually horrible that it’s happening.

A post watershed show, the target demographic is not children.....

[Alf]

Suddenly the Natalie crew are claiming to have morals, after championing a bully for the past week.

i'm quite clearly not talking about children watching the show, i'm talking about the children of the cheating husbands in there ! imagine as a child your father cheated on your mother in front of millions of people, it's not exactly gonna be something they'll get over next week

[Ant.]

Jermaine and his wife wife have a son I believe? 8 years old. Chances are Jermaine and his wife could split. That affects the child (and other children in the family)

there's a difference between privileged white girls crying because someone in their life for once won't pander to their ways and cheating husbands destroying families for a quick shag on national television x

[Elliot]

Screaming at people unironically wanting showmances this series

[DouglasS]

Yeah, a woman ruining a family and man cheating in his wife on TV is not going to be good viewing.

Many people also thought watching an aggressive screaming hypocrite was not good viewing also.

[Alf]

Screaming at people unironically wanting showmances this seriesThere's always been romance in Big Brother, you can go all the way back to Paul and Helen in BB2, it's a happy thing.

I didn’t know he had kids :omgno:

It's Jermaine causing that not Big Brother. If he is like this in the house he is probably like this outside and has probably cheated numerous times. It is still compelling viewing, I do not agree with it of course.

why would u find a married man destroying a family with kids 'compelling'

[DouglasS]

why would u find a married man destroying a family with kids 'compelling'

It's social interactions.. It's interesting to see how people react/act in certain situations and I find that interesting.

What you are doing is the equivalent of shouting at anyone for watching a murder documentary because that murderer destroyed peoples lives and its extremely tragic.. I also do find murder documentaries interesting... It's a ridiculous point you are making in my opinion.

You can also twist anything to sound like that. I could say 'why would u find an aggressive woman bullying two girls to tears compelling', I wouldn't say that though.

[Elliot]

So you’ll take ANY social interaction?

Natalie came out and immediately claimed a married man had already had sex in there, is that okay?

[Elliot]

What if that’s true?

[DouglasS]

I don't understand what you are saying, can you post in full rather than skip words out.

[Cherie]

What if that’s true?

Do you honestly think the producers wouldn't have shown it?

[DouglasS]

What if that’s true?

I'm pretty sure if it was true they'd show something that substantial on TV. That kind of headline would also benefit the show, giving the show press attention and would cause disucssion and so there is no reason why they wouldn't show it. I'm also pretty sure other housemates would have mentioned it knowing that they are also on TV... I think it is a massive stretch if you are believing the known liar over the whole camera crew, production, the other 10 odd housemates:laugh:

You said you like social interaction and you find humans dealing with different situations interesting. I wonder where you draw the line, because I kinda agree but certainly not when the people handling the situations are that of like Jermaine or dan, the most shallow bunch you’ll ever meet.

I mean I personally don’t usualy buy into this ever but I really, really wouldn’t put it past them. Also like a part of me thinks after that racism controversy the last thing they need is a married man and an engaged woman cheating on national tv

[lewys]

You can also twist anything to sound like that. I could say 'why would u find an aggressive woman bullying two girls to tears compelling', I wouldn't say that though.

but natalie's social interaction was not actually hurting anyone, the 'victims' were in the hot tub / playing games with her / chatting in the bedroom later on in the day, they were too oversensitive and they obviously didn't think she was a 'vile bully' because if i thought that about someone you wouldn't catch me dead in the hot tub having a gossip with someone i thought was a bully a few hours later after they made me cry. the HMs will forget about nat a few weeks after, it's what they signed up for before going in

what jermaine and dan are doing though is completely different. it is affecting literal children and families for life, not just the few weeks in the house, it will last for those children's life having a father who cheated on their mother on national television. how people react to situations is compelling. ruining a childs life is not
