So you expect her to be running round doing really difficult physical tasks at 70 years old? come on Chuff I know you dislike her but thats just silly :laugh:

BB normally make exceptions for things like that tbf.

In this task ,yes she should not have been treat differntly,an assault course or something like that is different, but knowing she was going in has made the tasks lame to cover her age ,which is making dull viewing IMO

Germaine Greer, Rula Lenska, John mccririck, Stephanie Beacham etc all did their part of tasks that included physical tasks. Julie shouldn't be wrote out cos she's a couple of years older than the others

:thumbs:

She didn't recieve a single nomination either :(
Her act has worked

I agree with josy, I like the fact that all age ranges are in CBB at least, but we must be aware of their physical limitations.

There has been many times in cbb & bb where hm's have been excluded from doing a task because of some back prob, leg prob, fear of something etc... Julie is still involved in the task.

Fair play to them, but we have no idea if Julie is capable health wise of doing physical tasks.

Julie wasn't the only one that BB chose but no one is moaning about Martin I think's it's just a case of jumping on every little thing to bash her.

I did have a moan about Martin as well, think its very unfair its two "oldies".

Maybe they were physically fitter than Julie though? And Julie is participating in this task, just not in the bit that some on here were hoping, which could have more demanding bits in the task for someone of her age. Also BB had to chose two Gods, would some be making such a fuss if it were their favourites chosen? Plus we still have more Gods to be chosen.

Ive read somewhere she won it on default, how true it is i dont know will wait and see

As we knew it would

Come on though, even Jackie Stallone could take some fish guts over her or getting into a costume, they just write Julie off because she'd be a God and a god only. Life doesn't end at 70, my grandparents are as fit as fiddles and are still physically capable, as is Julie

I don't think of Martin as an oldie, what age is he? :laugh:

Also the task when they had all to stand in the garden next to the board that described them (can't remember the name of it now) I think Julie was the only hm to have a chair.

Of course life doesn't stop at 70, that doesn't mean that physically we are all at the same peak of fitness at all. So good on your Grandparents that they are still physically capable, but not everyone can have that same peak of fitness whatever their age. BB asked Julie on there, and if and we don't know for sure allowances have to be made, but if so, then they have to be made, as long as she is still entertaining and taking part in the tasks then I don't see the problem at all. BB chooses the taskers, the housemates don't choose themselves.

Lazy skank !! and she went in through diary room,so will leave by same way I would think

You know nothing of her medical history though. Just cause your grandparents are fit doesn't mean everyone is.

Look at Roberto (BB6) He was a strapping fella but conditions were made for him in the box task because he had a bad back. He was the only HM with a long box, so he could lie flat.

the remaining Gods will be chosen by Julie and Martin if I picked up the task correctly.

I would be more inclined to think she was unable to stand for a long time or make it up the stairs rather than say she was lazy.

Yes, that is right, but the inital task Gods are chosen by BB, the same way they do when they give out the secret tasks.

His is 50 and by "oldie" I mean in the older group, he refers to himself as an oldie and he is compared to Danica, Ashley, Rhian, Harvey, Sitch, Lorenzo...:tongue:

she's perfectly capable, just lazy it seems. She had high demands as she is known for (why she wanted to enter through DR). main point is, it's a little sad how predictable tasks and roles have become, why shouldn't she be a mortal - are the fish guts TOO much?
