She didn't say peodophile. If you watched live feed the other day, he DID say 'I don't like older men, I sleep with younger men'.
He also told her 'Your a slag, You sleep with old men'
Agreed.
If she is not ejected over this or booted out this week I'm gonna make a complaint.

Saying that Gerry sleeps with 15 year old boys means she is calling him a peadophile.
Normally I look down on those who make complaints, but I'm gonna make an exception here.
Ejecting Emily for saying one racist word which wasn't even racially intended IMHO is unacceptable if they're not gonna eject Charley for accusing Gerry of a crime he didn't commit.

Weather or not she makes it good TV, making this sort of accusation is not acceptable, think about peadophiles getting beaten up on street, people wanting them to get burned, she should of thought before speaking. Emily was better TV than Charley, but she was removed because of one comment, Charley's comment was worse of the series, she should be automatically thrown out.

My thoughts exaclty.
I am utterly ashamed at the actions of Big Brother housemate Charley Uchea for implying that fellow housemate Gerry Stergiopoulous was a paedophile.
I am also ashamed at the actions of Big Brother.
Big Brother ejecting former housemate Emily Parr for saying one racist word which wasn't even, in my opinion, racially intended is unacceptable if BB is not going to eject Charley for accusing Gerry of a crime he didn't commit.
During the night Emily was ejected, Charley repeated the offending word a number of times but faced no punishment. She has also become one of the most volatile housemates ever in the history of Big Brother.
I am considering abandoning the programme now as the actions of Charley, over the whole series, are disgusting and I feel uneasy watching them.
I am disgusted with the actions of Big Brother and I am disappointed that as a long time fan of the show I now feel I may have to turn off.
My complaint to Channel 4... anything I could add?

Charley's comment is not illegal. She said "You sleep with younger men", Gerry was one that brought paedophile into it. Also Gerry started it by saying that Charley slept with old men for money.
Both should have received a formal warning.

Coming from the country where BB was originally invented, I feel ashamed of it for the first time ever. In the first week Emily was evicted for making a remark (the now infamous N-word) and the whole of (politically correct) Britain complemented BB with this action. However, now that a (negroide, is that a correct word or should I say coloured? I've lost track) makes a completely OFF-track comment, BB takes no action.
I know it's all been said and done, but since the original BB (the Dutch version) has done a live birth in the last ever Dutch BB, Endemol is totally not going to be bothered about a few people on a forum (unfortunately!)
This'll be my first and last post most likely, I just wanted to say something about it. In my humble opinion this is opposite racism. To me it seems that Charley as being a coloured person is allowed to say whatever she wants as BB is not going to evict her for her words no matter what.

He didn't say she was a \prostitute', he said she was a slag- which yes, is offensive, but he did not imply that she was a prostitute.
I was liking her- read my previous feeds, but not now, big brother don't know what they are doing, because no matter how they showed it, some dickheads will shout it to Gerry on the street, you know that x

I would suggest that posters email Ofcom and Channel 4 about Charley's comments.
What she said was more controversial what Emily said, and Charley should get the same treatment.
If she does not then there are tollerating homophobia in exactly the same way the previously tollerated racism.
That has gone beyond the normal nasty comments.
This is potentially legally serious and she must be taken out as swiftly as Emily

She insinuated he was a paedophile, in my opinion that was so far out of order, it was sickening. Bringing something so serious into one of her petty arguments to give her some cred is just not on.

Charley AND Gerry said some things which could be seen as offensive to each other. If one person is going to be kicked out so should the other. You cant pick and choose.

Difference being, one insinuated illegal activity, the other didn't.
Now I don't usually bring homophobia into an argument but do you really think Charley would have said the same thing to a straight man? Had a straight man said "I prefer younger women", her first response wouldn't be "You sleep with 15 year old little girls!"

Although what Charley said is unfair, do you really think people complaining will make a difference?
Eventually though, they will relinquish Charley for Brian. BB want an ethnic minority winner, after the CBB fiasco (and as a black man, I do not wish to be associated with a fix!) the first twins to win, or a good looking bloke (Liam)
With Brian emerging strongly, we could see BB cutting ties with Charley and gathering momentum towards Brian, which they already have the latter and we know BB edit and fix things to favour their favourites.
I don't think they are ready to let Charley go just yet, but may do so in a couple of weeks.

Obviously Anti-Charley Logic (http://www.thisisbigbrother.com/forum/viewthread.php?tid=66029) is in full flow here, but I've heard several times Gerry brag about only liking "young boys". It's something which he has gone to lengths about to make sure everyone understands, that he likes younger people, and using the word "boys" is just making trouble for himself. "Boys" are male children.
Also, Charley specified she was unaware about the age limit, which is no great excuse, but considering Gerry himself has spent many an evening making sure people know he likes "boys", it was a mistake waiting to happen.

I am confused as to why people are making complaints to C4 and Ofcom - the views and comments made were from Charleys infantile and unintelligent brain and not the views expressed by C4 nor BB - perhaps BB bosses should put disclaimers before each programme to state this fact.
The comment itself is perhaps slanderous or perhaps homophobic in the sense that the comment was made as an attack to Gerry's sexuality in which Gerry has the right to make an official complaint to the police. Maybe on this fact that 'kicking' out Charley would be the correct thing to do and complaints can be justified.
But as we all know Charley cannot have an intelligent argument and will always use the lowest common denominater and says the first thing that pops in her head - unfortunatley on this occasion she was insinuating that gerry is a 'paedophille' by sleeping with underage boys.
Gerry has admitted in past programme that he likes his men younger but does not suggest under-age.
I do feel that Bb producers etc may have been OTT with Emily and a stiff telling off would have been more appropriate rather than 'kicking' her out of the house but as the Shilpa Shetty vs Jade Goody situation was still fresh then they made a knee jerk reaction to please Ofcom and shareholders then maybe the viewers.

What happened in January is a totally differerent incident to what happened yesterday, what made the race row even worse is fans that constantly complained about it and made a big deal about it.
Charley's comment is only one comment, which wasn't racial. Why can't everyone stop ruining the series by complaining. We all know that Charley is a nasty bitch. If Big Brother feel the need to interveine in the incident then they will. They don't need fans trying to interfere with the series and one off incidents.

Then that's going to make the whole incident alot more worse. There's no point you wasting Channel 4 and Ofcom's time and money investigating a silly little incident.

But as we all know Charley cannot have an intelligent argument and will always use the lowest common denominater and says the first thing that pops in her head - unfortunatley on this occasion she was insinuating that gerry is a 'paedophille' by sleeping with underage boys.
Gerry has admitted in past programme that he likes his men younger but does not suggest under-age.
I do feel that Bb producers etc may have been OTT with Emily and a stiff telling off would have been more appropriate rather than 'kicking' her out of the house but as the Shilpa Shetty vs Jade Goody situation was still fresh then they made a knee jerk reaction to please Ofcom and shareholders then maybe the viewers.
You are 100% wrong, this was Charley's comment;
He said to her that she was effectively calling him a paedophile and her response was "I don't care!"
She knew what she was saying and she didn't give a flying *****.
I can't believe Carole excused her... I can't believe BB excused her... and I can't believe people on here are excusing her.

The point of complaing about Charley is this:
Charley technically accused Gerry of being a paedophile, which is just as bad as Emily being ejected for saying just one racial slur, which in my opinion wasn't even racially intended.
If they ejected Emily for that, why not eject Charley for comitting a crime that was just as bad?

Also I am not excusing anything.
I just do not understand where the complaint actually lies!!! All we witnessed was an argument between two people jousting insults at one another - just unfortunate that an insult insinuated that one person was a paedophille wishing to sleep with under age boys which in fact turned out to be untrue.
Course she didin't give a flying *******!!! She was berating the man and she did not have the instant intelligence nor nobility to apolgise for such a comment till the BB voice told her that her comment may be construed as offensive and cause distress.
I will complain to Ofcom and C4 when I feel it deems appropriate and have nothing better to do with my time.

Not once in any of the posts did I say that she did not mean what she said nor that she was unaware on what she was saying. In fact I had suggested that she is not of the intelligence to have a proper argument stating facts but has little intelligence therefore accusing Gerry of being a 'paedo' rather than having anything constructive to say.
Saying she didn't care meant (well what I percived it as) that she said something offensive with all it's intentions and did not care if it offended. Saying 'I don't care' does not state that she was unaware.

Do you "complainers" not see the bizarre thing here? You are saying you want Charley out yet Emily should be let back in, by doin that you are doing everything you are accusing BB of......being unfair! You too are imposing one rule for Emily and another for Charley. They both said extremely wrong things so they should BOTH be out.
If you want to make a complaint about Charley's comment but then add "oh by the way put Emily back in" then you dont have a leg to stand on because you are contradicting everything you are arguing for.
Yes Charley WAS wrong and should be taken out but Emily should STAY out aswell.
OK, i just complained. Hi 5! lol.

Totally agree.I don't get why people even need to compare the severity of either of what they have said.
We all know Emily was the scapegoat to prove that Channel 4 had zero tolerency on racism. What Charley said was wrong but had Emily been allowed to stay in the house the backlash which would have followed would probabl have seen Big Brother taken off the air.

Everyone can see that and her mission in life, seems to be, to cause as much bother as possible and argue with absolutely everyone and hurt feelings and talk so fast, that we can barely understand her.
She breaks the rules and doesn't care. If she gets evicted, she doesn't care, if she never saw any of the housemates ever again, then she doesn't care.
Guess who let her in?

That is very true Jackboi89:thumbs:
They will suddenly have strong views against Racism, all of sudden, like a flash of light and opening up the heavens and making a cleansing in such a way, to make them oh-so-perfect
But, in CBB5, they had a different idea and money was sooo important.
Racism exists, but so does unfairness within that very word. It has many sides and forms and can discriminate on a particular group or person, regardless of origin, ethnic or colour.
Plenty of one-sidedness, as suited, when suited.

Charley accused Gerry of sleeping with 15 year olds,. which is saying you are doing something against the law.
Gerry could face serious repricussions from an accusation like that being publically announced.
Its more serious then the bullying/rascism comments that have been made in the past.
Regardless of whether or not the accusations are true or not, Gerry's reputation and well-being are in jeopardy which is very very serious.
Im not just saying this because I dislike Charley. I actually find it less credible coming from her mouth. But I would be angry about this even more if it was any other housemate. It is unacceptable for bb to give her a warning. She should be gone.

She didn't call him a Paedophile directly, but by saying he sleeps with 15 year old boys, is saying in-directly that he is a Paedophile! Which is just as bad!
It's the same as saying to someone "You steal from shops" which is saying they are a Thief. It's the same difference!
Charley should be removed like Emily was. Both should stay out of the house as they were both wrong. Yes Emily didn't mean what she said in a racially offensive way, but she still said it, therefore she is still wrong.

EMILY SHOULD HAVE BEEN KICKED OUT. She is a pratt, she thought she was being 'street' making friends with a 'cool black girl' she used the horrific n-word, who cares if she 'didn't mean it'. She used a word that has been digrading to many people for years and years. I am a teacher and if someone used that word in my school they would get expelled.
About her wanting to leave the country- exuse me, she doesn't look like she's having such a bad time in heat magazine, topless in the tabliods, she is horrible.
What I would like to know is why th country is being so soft on her, like they have been with racist Danielle Loydd? Because they are pretty. Funny how JAde and Jo O'mera got it worse than Danielle, when in my opinion DAnielle was much worse as she was SO too faced.
If you people don't think Emily has done anything wrong, then god help the state of this country x

I do not believe for one second, Charley does not know the legal age requirement for sex. She said that cos she knew immediately she was in trouble by the tone of the BB voice and she used it as a get out of jail card.
The fact she specifically said "15 years olds", to me meant she knew exactly what she was saying and BB knew it. She could have said young boys as Gerry had told her but to maximise the level of hurt she wanted to hurl at him, she deliberately put an age on on her remark. This is a girl who brags about being streetwise so don't tell me she is ignorant of the law.
BB again are at fault here, Emily's defence was ignorance as was Charleys. It's all right saying only one person was hurt here but the whole gay community suffer these slings and arrows and so it reflects on them as well. How would his family have felt hearing that accusasion against there son.
Pedophilia is an odious crime, murderers, rapist's and abusers are often in this category and to be chucked into this group by someone who has set out to cause maximum distress to a fellow HM and then let off by BB is a crime in itself. Being black does not fall into this kind of category. The "N" word is insulting I admit, but child abusers are universally hated and reviled much more.
When I heard it, the first thing I said was she has accused him of being a pedophile and she knew it.
All the crocodile tears were for herself because she realised she came within an inch of being thrown out like Emily.

He knew what he was doing, sucking his thimb and such, saying they preffered me to her etc.... He was trying to get a raise out of charley, and he got it!
By the way I love your new profile potentialsuperstar
Yes i agree wat your saying

I am not for one second saying I agree with what Charley said, it was appalling and she should have been removed, without a doubt but my argument is that Emily should also stay out. Its easy for people to say they arent that offended by her comment if you are white, but put yourself in a black person's shoes and you may see it in a different way......
Charley was wrong and Emily was wrong, they should both be out of the big brother house, simple as that

Arneldo, Charley did not say "Don't push me away you n****r", she said something to the words of, "you pushing it out ******", I think they were singing a something, which is a completely different thing. Check back on the original thread if you want to.

They were not singing at all. Charley was pushing her stomach out saying she looked big and then Emily said that. It wasnt a song it was Emily making a blatantly offensive comment

If Charley didn't actually use the word paedophile then I can't see much Channel 4 or Ofcom can do about the incident.

Thats what I was thinking, its an interpretation, Charley is just stupid for saying that, and she was well wound up by Gerry at that point. I would have bla,ed her if she meliciously said it, but Gerry was looking for a reaction from Charley, and she lashed out. But likie you said, if it was the law, there is no legal grounds there!

potential they werent singing! She said it in a sentence outright. They weren't singing at all and I think if you check it back you'll see I'm right
They weren't singing. Charley said "do I look pregnant?" to which Emily replied "you're pushing it (stomach) out ya n***er.

I dont like what Charley said anymore than anyone else does, however are we not starting to sound like a bunch of kids stamping our feet every time someone says something we dont like. In this culture we have of complaining we have all gotten caught up in the "if we moan we get our own way" type of thinking.
I agree that complaints have there place in this society but do we have to nit pick over every little thing. Had Gerry wanted a big fuss caused you can be sure he would have made one. He would have banged the diary room door down and demanded action be taken and kept going on and on until he was satisfied, as it is he did not.
Neither of them were particularly considerate of each others feelings when they argued but do we need a huge investigation because 2 adults had a row and said mean and hurtful things to each other

I could not agree more. This word sensitive treading on egg shells societ we live in today is bording on insanity....
As far as Charley is concerned she did cross a line that I would think is up to Gerry and his legal advisers to consider when they are out of the house. BB should do nothing other than what they have already done and let everyone get on with the show.
Throwing someone out every time an undesriable word or suggestion of a word is used would render a show like BB incapable of continuing.....
Oh for the days when people believed in the old saying of sticks and stones and had enough character to rise above insults without crying for help from nanny state or control freak organisations like Ofcom
I dont agree with what Charley said. But why are people comparing this incident to that of Emily's...just leave Emily out of it. These are two seperate situations.
Emily got kicked out because she used a racist word, which was not only offensive to Charley, but offensive to the public.
What Charley said, as pointed out before, was offensive to Gerry as it was a personal insult.
Whether Charley should get kicked out or not, i dnt know, but as we have seen she and Gerry have made up... but please dont be so ignorant as to say that Emily should be let back in, that is just condoning what she did.

I think what happened with Emily was a knee-jerk reaction on the back of the CBB racism row. The CBB stuff was made a national incident and Channel 4 didn't want the same thing happening again if they'd kept Emily in or given her a formal warning as opposed to ejecting her from the house.
With Charley saying what she did about Gerry, maybe they felt that her comments only affected and offended Gerry rather than the outside world and Big Brother felt it necessary for the incident to be sorted out among themselves. Having said that, I'm surprised Charley has lasted as long as what she has in the house with her volatile nature and the way she's turned on nearly all of the housemates, and after the Fake Eviction it seems she has more issues with a lot of them now after finding out who nominated her and what they said.

Weather or not she makes it good TV, making this sort of accusation is not acceptable, think about peadophiles getting beaten up on street, people wanting them to get burned, she should of thought before speaking. Charley's comment was worse of the series, she should be automatically thrown out.

This is just the highlights, Charley probably said more on Live which was edited out.
Originally posted by Lauren
She insinuated he was a paedophile, in my opinion that was so far out of order, it was sickening. Bringing something so serious into one of her petty arguments to give her some cred is just not on.
Originally posted by Lauren
Now I don't usually bring homophobia into an argument but do you really think Charley would have said the same thing to a straight man? Had a straight man said "I prefer younger women", her first response wouldn't be "You sleep with 15 year old little girls!"

Charley is totally out of control basically.
Everyone can see that and her mission in life, seems to be, to cause as much bother as possible and argue with absolutely everyone and hurt feelings and talk so fast, that we can barely understand her.
Originally posted by Keith_Can
Its more serious then the bullying/rascism comments that have been made in the past.
It is unacceptable for bb to give her a warning. She should be gone.

People were hating Charlie before she even went in on the opening night and people are allowing their predjudices to make them hear what they want to here and not what is said.
The age of consent for hetrosexual couples, IIRC is younger than that for homosexual couples, but it is known that "experimentation" between young peopple takes place, unfortunately.
In this light, picking the age of 15 out of the air in the heat of an argument, (Why were they arguing prior to this statement of 15), is quite likely to happen, and if there is confusion this would also add to this.
The Emily issue is a separate matter and should not be dragged in here.
BB dealt with it, and the matter should rest there
BTW Still Neutral

It isn't. The law (as far as England is concerned) was changed seven years ago.

My Bad (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ages_of_consent_in_Europe#England) :blush:
I was still under the impression that homosexual age of consent was 18 and hetrosexual age of consent was 16
But it did still seem like a figure plucked at random with out much thought.

If he doesn't they're liable to form a pressure group, up knickers and complain to OFCOM

Pandering to the Charley-haters with an attempt at humour?
Spacebandit, it’s clear to many here that you’re trying to pull the wool over people’s eyes (e.g. misrepresenting my post and claiming it was the one you responded to) with subterfuge for your original pretence (“Pro-Charley Blindness”). The fact that CharlotteSometimes has had to systematically dismantle your repeated, petulant rebuttals is evidence that you would rather string out the discussion along any tangent possible in order to ‘save face’, rather than simply admit your possible mistake. I’ll ask you now to please stop.
I’ll also ask you, one last time, to actually take up the debate in this thread..
http://www.thisisbigbrother.com/forum/viewthread.php?tid=66029
…where you can make a formed argument, hopefully erasing your pretence and proving you did actually have a point to make. This is one way, in my opinion, which you might save some of that ‘face’ you consider so precious.
I won’t comment on this (side-tracked) issue anymore in this thread.
