...there was such snobbery about her celebrity, such resentment...

The press seemed to really have it in for her

...whoever Jade was, whatever people thought of her and however bad her actions in the house...?...the media were worse, the irony of feeling that she was in some way beneath them and not worthy of her celebrity...

That was so sad omg

I agree RileyH, it was a very hard watch

I reckon they were all as bad as each other in regards to the bullying. Especially watching them on live feed. All three were absolutely repugnant.

But Danielle and Jack were the worst when it came to the racist comments.

Danielle really is a slag!

The newspapers back then were disgusting. Glad I wasn't old enough to be fully aware.

Kevin O'Sullivan seemed especially vicious and doesn't seem to even feel bad about it.

What a thrilling hour.

Jackiey is just something else completely.

I couldn’t imagine what the live feed was like. That must’ve been awful to watch.

I never saw live feed, before I started watching really but Jo and Danielle were worse imo because they encouraged Jade, they knew she was easily wound up and unfiltered.

Obviously not excusing anything Jade said but even in tonight's show Danielle was clearly gaslighting Jade at least 3 times.

x2

Jade’s problem with Shilpa was never her race, it was the fact that she thought that Shilpa looked down on her and thought she was better than everyone else and should be treated that way, unfortunately she just wasn’t intelligent enough to articulate it properly imo.

Danielle and Jack getting away with everything was sickening, the papers only went after Jade because she was the ‘star’ that they never really liked

Completely agree on Danielle. She actually got away with it the most out of everyone and yet was the absolute worst.

Scum of the earth.

In terms of who was the worst.

Jack > Danielle > Jo > Jackie > Jade.

Jack and Danielle are interchangeable.

Yep, she really was. She was enjoying every second of it.

The media were the worst of the lot.

Blew it all out of proportion and dropped Jade like a bag of sick then the minute she got cancer they were practically fighting over who published her obituary first.

...the irony of the media portraying her as ‘everything wrong in society’...when all that was needed was for them all to hold up a mirror to themselves...

I do wonder whether Jade thought the public wouldn't understand Shilpa the same way she didn't, but backfired horrifically.

There's no excuse for the abhorrent bullying, and the comments were racist whether the intention was for them to be or not. However, I do hope this documentary can put the entire thing at rest because the entire ordeal must be such a misery for everyone to go through again. As fascinating it was, there's just no need to relive it again. It's interesting that the press were the bullies that got away with it, but in a way social media has taken that badge from them. Even the comments from people online about this show are really disgusting.

I really do hope for peace for Jackyie, in particular. She's too vulnerable to be put in these positions and have to relive the trauma again and again.

Carole Malone was so slept on! I want her in the jungle!!

Didn't watch the show but at the time Jo disappointed me the most. I really liked her until she did CBB. Was shocked. Wasn't shocked by Danielle. A bitch through and through.

This was hard to watch. Some funny moments when the celebs fumed about Jades family being there though!

She really knew how to put her foot in her mouth god bless her. I cringed when she started changing Shilpa’s name again in the DR after being warned about it :skull: tbf if this was Ch5 CBB she probably would’ve won.

Sometimes I wonder why Shilpa ever did CBB. I was on her side but she probably did look down her nose a bit.

Her mum is just next level. She makes no sense when she talks and I hardly believe she never knew she was going in the house and was just shoved out the car door then realised she was doing CBB!

That was so hard to watch. The servants task was awful, tedious and uncomfortable to watch and really set the tone for the series. I don't get why they did the whole family thing, it was stupid. Jade entering by herself and mixing with 'proper' celebs would have been a good twist in itself.

The show that made her was the show that destroyed her. Her behavior was wrong but at least she held herself accountable and her apology was sincere. I agree with some of the previous posts, the others around her were worse but Jade got the worst of it because she was the loudest
