Gilbert & Grape are now Dead.

[Locke.]

The goldfish has gone to a better plaice...

We're accustomed to housemates making a bid for freedom but most of time they manage to make it out of the door. But one member of the Big Brother House has swam off for good. It's our first casualty series - one of the goldfish has left the building. At least it didn't get flushed down the loo.

"It's not your fault, you tried your best," comforted Kat as Rachel glumly made her way to the Diary Room with the dead fish. "You've been with it the whole morning."

"Let's cook it!" suggested Mohamed, possibly earning himself a battering.

"He's dead, Rex. He's totally gone," Rachel told Rex crabbily as he peered into a little cup that contained the ex-fish.

"I'm just gutted, I keep thinking if I did something different..." Rachel sobbed in the Diary Room. Doesn't she know you can't do anything about acts of cod?

"Look after him please, it's a sad day. It just looks like he was unable to survive the Big Brother House. I don't blame him," said Mikey in the little room. You're telling us. "We done the best to give him medicine and by this morning it was too late, we were counting the hours away." Maybe it was just time for it to go up to the big fish pond in the sky.

Big Brother comforted Rachel and instructed to bring the other fish too. Hopefully it wasn't off to join it's sole-mate, just yet...

For the record, no fish were harmed in the making of this story.

Hahaha i did find it hilarious reading it, but poor Rachel, so sweet :sad:

[fingers]

They killed them by constantly changing the water and putting the fish into shock by the sudden changes in temperature

[CassetteFinger]

only one has died though not both.

[Jase]

Aw, this is what I love about Rachel. I'd be backing her to win (if Stu leaves) but she just goes too far with it sometimes. At least she likes animals, that goes a long way with me!

And Mo said 'lets cook it' - kind of proves my point about Mo doesn't it!??

[Sticks]

OK

Where can I report C4 / Endemol to the RSPCA :mad:

[Willz]

Did Rachel actually cry?

[LilSis08]

Bless her... :flowers:

[bigbr0ther]

It's not Rachel's fault. It's the producers fault. Those fish didn't have any of the things goldfish need. Disgusting.

[Daffodil]

Agreed. No oxygen. They died a long death through suffocation. Not nice.

I already phoned in..... :bigsmile:

[LilSis08]

Why is it a 'sad act' to complain about their treatment of defenceless animals???

[Leonine]

Seems BB & the RSPCA already had plenty of complaints before the fish were dead:

...but did nothing about it.

Remember the kitten (http://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/entertainment/film_and_tv/s/167/167370_big_brother_6_rspca_complain_about_the_kitt en.html) in BB6 too?

BB producers have a history of this kind of ignorance & idiocy. All the brainless posts on here making fun of this make me wanna puke.

If a puppy had become seriously ill & died through neglect it's be on the front page of the Scum & everyone on here would be up in arms about it.

I cant believe that some of you would laugh at an animal dying! God forbid that some of you will go on to have kids, the poor little sods will have a fine example set to them.
