Cameron & Lewis’ treatment of Akeem

[Daniel-X]

Is actually getting quite uncomfortable to watch? Does anyone else agree?

They seem to absolutely nitpick at everything he does, even when he is just genuinely being nice. I haven’t actually heard either of them say anything nice to him at all. It’s borderline bullying and Akeem has been very, very good in the way he’s handled them.

They’re ****ing disgusting.

[Amy Jade]

Sick of hearing them tell him to shut up and piss off.

During the task tonight he was just trying to encourage everyone and they spoke to him awfully.

[joeysteele]

No.
I can't bear Akeem and in tasks I'd be screaming shut up to him.
He never shuts up.

[Elliot]

****ing vile dreadful people and it’s actually concerning people are sticking up for them

[Daniel-X]

No.
I can't bear Akeem and in tasks I'd be screaming shut up to him.
He never shuts up.

But when he simply said ‘oh the seconds are going up.’ in today’s episode Cameron was like ‘OH GET IN SHOT THAT’S RIGHT AKEEM GET YOUR AIRTIME!’

It’s snipey and horrible. If it was anyone else nothing would’ve been said.

Lewis & Cameron are the attention seeking ones, I hope Lewis gets evicted tomorrow and Cameron leaves in pursuit. ****ing twats.

[Beso]

Cam was hilarious tonight telling akeem to get in the shot, I nearly passed out laughing.

[Amy Jade]

In all honesty nobody brought up correctly would scream at somebody to 'shut the **** up' when they are simply trying to motivate and encourage you.

[Daniel-X]

Cam was hilarious tonight telling akeem to get in the shot, I nearly passed out laughing.

Cameron worried Akeem is taking time away from his ~coming out~ arc?

[Matthew.]

No.
I can't bear Akeem and in tasks I'd be screaming shut up to him.

pretty much

he’s condescending and he reminds me of someone i know irl that i don’t like :fan:

[RileyH]

They're awful, awful people I nearly switched over at certain points :umm2:

[Jase.]

Wow you're easily amused

[Lostie!]

They're a horrible pair. Akeem's completely shown them up by always remaining classy while they continuously target him.

[Alf]

****ing vile dreadful people and it’s actually concerning people are sticking up for themStop being over-dramatic, It's a TV show.

That's why I watch BB son.

Imagine someone trying to motivate people to win is a skinny person while idoliseing a woman hate ugly twat

To reply to both posts.

It’s VERY common for people to motivate and cheer on, he’s doing it as an act of encouragement and means no malice? It may annoy some people slightly but their response was nowhere near justifiable for quite a kind act from Akeem.

[Jordan.]

Cameron wouldn't dare speak to Akeem the way he does on the outside, he knows he can get away with it with his gang handed buddy in there to protect him

[RileyH]

Stop being over-dramatic, It's a TV show.

A TV show centered around real people living their day to day lives

[Epic.]

I don't think it's been 'getting quite uncomfortable to watch' as the OP says. It's pretty much been uncomfortable from the start. They're a toxic pair who have mistaken Akeem and several other housemates' kindness for weakness. Their popularity is ridiculous. Tomasz gets loads of critique for how he's been to Akeem, but at least he's had just as many moments of having fun and getting along with Akeem. Cameron and Lewis just force themselves to tolerate him.

[Beso]

Well akeem has just told Cameron he loves all that banter, and loves his and Cameron's friendship...


Like I said would happen.

i wasn’t referring to what happened tonight, i wasn’t even watching at that bit, i was getting myself a cup of tea from the kitchen when that task was happening

i was talking generally, hope that clears that up

Everyone is fine with tomasz now I think
Haven’t seen a negative comment about him in ages apart from one homophobic thread

[Matthew.]

a good point

[BENDERBOY]

It's the Three Stooges really, hate to use the word BANTER.

[Beso]

It's pure banter between them

True, I just think it’s becoming more uncomfortable as the days go on.

I’m over Tomasz now, he’s not the star he was at the start of the series but he’s a decent HM and I’d take him over a lot of them left in there.

[BBDodge]

Mr. Motivator was actually quite apt.

Every task Akeem says "Let's do this guys".

[Alf]

A TV show centered around real people living their day to day livesWe see about 45 minutes of edited highlights that's manufactured on a story board.

[Jordan.]

And this is a negative?

[joeysteele]

Er, you really are insulting.

I was brought up correctly and your statement above is shocking
I would happily tell anyone to shut up if they were really annoying me.
Especially if I was concentrating on something too.

[Matthew.]

tomorrow i might go back and watch tonight’s episode back, i’ve clearly missed something and by my own admission i wasn’t paying much attention tonight

[Vanessa]

I think Lewis and Akeem are ok with each other now.

[Yaki da]

Constantly prodding away. The moment Akeem does anything they go at him. And no, it is not just banter. You can see they have no respect for the guy whatsoever.

[Elliot]

And this is a negative?

Imagine, if you will

Going through life thinking nice kind hearted supportive motivational people

Have hidden agendas and are actually deep down nasty and horrid

[joeysteele]

Like I said would happen.

False as anything from Akeem parmnion.

Akeem has nominated Cameron every time, including this week too.

[Beso]

Cause he had a valid reason every time joey, but I've noticed a change in them or at least we are being shown them alone more.

That clip on bots tonight showed that akeem takes just as much of the piss out of Cameron as he does him and no matter how much people on here say differently that clip proves them all wrong so hopefully it can be the end of that and they can stick to whining about him whining.

[Ant.]

I made this exact same thread last week and this isn't me being like "you stole my thunder!!" (Cameron anytime Akeem speaks teas) but more relieving that more and more and more people are seeing how AWFUL it is

[reece(:]

It's a good thing Akeem rises above the scum.

[Tribal Spaceman]

Akeem is always making little sly digs and getting away with it because he does it quietly or with a smile on his face. Lewis and Cameron aren't devious enough to do the same.

Akeem is highly competitive and likes to take over and can be a bit control freak-y and many find that off-putting.

[Beso]

So why would akeem tell Cameron he loves all the "oh shut up akeem" and "shut up Cameron" banter they have and that he loves their friendship for that reason if he actually doesn't?


Cause that's what a clip on bots showed tonight when they had time to talk alone in the kitchen!

Akeem has been Mr Motivator and the house prefect since he went in the house. He knows what he is like...they were just taking the piss and he loves it.
It's no different with his relationship with Tomasz...they both seem to like each other now..but they still nominate each other.

[Tribal Spaceman]

They're not each other's biggest fans but they don't dislike evwb other.

[rusticgal]

I think it's called a love/hate relationship..

Yes, they all hug each other after winning a task and are the lads if the house now so maybe it's their way of bonding rather than them actually being horrible to each other.

I do think though that we have seen the end of them nominating each other.

Is it not awful taking the piss out of someone's teeth like you have done to Cameron and Zoe...a personal attack on housemates Features...nasty and uncalled for...

[Nancy.]

Just saw the clip on BOTS of Akeem and Cameron saying they enjoyed their relationship - including all the bickering, so why are people offended on Akeem's behalf? If he doesn't have an issue then I don't see a problem.

Maybe because the constant sly digs and constant belittling is getting on people's nerves, Akeem laughs it off or tells Cameron it chill out because he's a positive nice guy . But it's not nice how he get's treated :nono: .

I doubt Akeem & Cameron will be blood brothers when this ends , tbh i don't even think Lewis & Cameron will be that close when they leave the BB house .

The digs from Sian and nastiness from Hussain (about Cameron and Lewis) are also getting on people's nerves, but I expect their fans don't matter considering Lewis and Cam are viewed as the devils spawn on here.

Why do people keep bringing up Sian making "digs" at Lewis wasn't that just twice?? :facepalm: . And Hussain confronts Lewis to his face about relevant stuff! .

Completely different to the issue with Akeem , where they keep goading him and poking him constantly for a reaction .

You're missing the very real point here - all the housemates who also called Akeem out for his gameplaying and antics (Isaac, lewis G) to name a few - have been evicted - so yes, it looks like it's focused by the others, but it's simply the fact that the majority of the house are fence sitters now.

And no... Sian has voted lewis up opportunity, never tried to get to know him, and hussein confronts lewis over nothing relevant because his dislike for him is imaginary and substanceless.

Tell me, what reasons does hussein have to dislike lewis? other than issy fanying him?

[Beso]

Hands up if you have seen the bots clip

[Liam-]

Hands up if you have seen the bots clip

The clip doesn’t doesn’t matter, people will ignore Akeems own words to push their view across, even though Akeem himself has completely busted their theory.

[Daniel-X]

Lewis was gross again to him tonight. And this is some people’s winner? :laugh3:

[Vanessa]

Akeem and Lewis just don't get on. Simples.

[Elliot]

The rows on big brother are usually iconic but everytime Lewis rows it just makes me cringe lol such a terrible predictable human being

[Daniel-X]

Akeem and Lewis just don't get on. Simples.

Lewis starts on him for no reason, at any chance he can get. It’s not that they ‘just don’t get on.’

Lewis started on him tonight because he was going out and having a laugh? he wouldn’t have took issue with anyone else doing that and you know it.

[Yaki da]

Yeah, Cameron seems to just take the pee out of Akeem. Lewis seems to really have it in for him.

Nobody is being disgusting to Akeem, he knows what he is doing and he can handle himself, either people pleasing or whatever.....

[jaxie]

Stop being over-dramatic, It's a TV show.

It is a tv show Alfie but it isn't scripted. This is how they are interacting and acting with other people. They are pretty unpleasant, specially when together.

[AnnieK]

I don't think they don't get on....Lewis gets quite argumentative with a drink in him and Akeem bites. Both sober, they have a laughy jokey argumentative relationship but when they've had a drink...lewis pushes it and akeem bites

[Jules82]

Why we have to pick on anything from tonight, I dont know. Akeem stopped Lewis going out because L wanted to go and comfort Cameron. He then proceeded to take over....So who started on who, thereagain is it really important? It was all brilliant.

That wasn't his issue. It was that Akeem told him he wasn't allowed out then decided he was going out himself.

[rusticgal]

Exactly...went out to get airtime and show us what a little tinker he is to maximise his support and as a result screwed the task up...:joker:

[rionablue]

I think Akeem got very cocky very early on when he was cock of the walk on top of the Big Coin leader board. When someone eventually had more coins than him he was not a happy bunny. He is a bit wishy washy in my eyes. I would never have asked BB to ask the public if I deserved a place in the final. I would take my chances and see how it panned out. Akeem is the polar opposite of Lewis who is a pressure cooker that is constantly exploding. The housemates in general kind of turned against Akeem because of the reasons I outlined and when it came to positive nominations he didnt have ONE friend that thought of him highly enough to positively nominate him. Lewis treats everyone like **** if he isnt getting his own way or is in one of his moods so I wasnt surprised at the way he acted. I do however think it was wrong and Lewis is bottom of the pile for me in the likeability factor
