Wow I never realised what boring housemates the Welsh make. BB needs to be a Welsh free zone.

The racism in this thread is almost overwhelming.

Also, don't refer to all Welsh as Taffy. Thanks.

its not racism , lets not be stupid now....its just the English winding up the welsh and vice versa....I live in wales now , wonderful country and the word taff is not racist at all, its a term of affection based around the river taff....
I think there have been some wonderful welsh hms ....who culd ever forget helen adams chasing her beloved paul Clarke or glyn prmoting the welsh language and boiling eggs for the very first time

I was not implying there was anything racist about the word 'taff' and you are exactly right about it referencing the river taff. However, this river runs through Cardiff, and people further West do not take too kindly to the reference.

Source: I have been born and bred in Swansea. Call anyone in Swansea 'taffy' and it won't end well.

Christ almighty Sam better not win this, so undeserved if he does

^^agree, he and Cameron would be the worst BB winners of all

Sam is not going to win, he never was going to win,

I honestly think Dexter, Charlie and Gina will be the final 3, and i think it's an open contest between the 3 of them as it stands,

personally i'd like to see Dexter win it, love him or hate him, as he's by far and away the best HM of the series!!

The Welsh overall make pretty bad HMs.

Totally agree with you on this point.

Those having fun and enjoying the experience are one of the reasons I do tune in to watch.

ah nonsense you may have met the odd looney tune who gets offended I certainly haven't and Ive been here many years....its not really a word that gets used that much in wales more to some welsh people living outside wales and ive never ever known any welsh man r woman say they take offence at the word.....same with jock or paddy.....taff t these are not derogatory terms they are terms of endearnment....but the term sheep shag*er is a derogatory term and if used again and again it becomes bring and insulting and yes I have seen welsh people rightly get annoyed about that.....but to imply the welsh get offended by taff implies the welsh are humourless which is the exact opposite of the truth, the welsh Ive known are some of the funniets most surreal unique characters ive ever met anywhere

I am basing my opinion purely on football mentality, when Cardiff play the Swans this coming season, call a Jack, Taffy...and see what happens :joker:

oh youre basing the judgements of all welsh people getting offended by the word taffy, on the worst level of morons who follow football...by that token we should then assume all Glaswegians are raving drunken maniacs....hmmm on second thoughts:joker:

I honestly cannot imagine many people actually lifting up the phone to vote for Sam, either to evict or to win.. he'll be the first out at the final

Macie Lightfoot 20-07-2013 05:15 PM

You're the only one who would notice slash care about such a councidence.

The only real similarity Rachel/Luke A have is that they're two of the only good winners this show has ever produced. And it has nothing to do with their Welshness because Mario sucked and Dave might be the worst HM ever.

actually when he yawned the other day he really offended me, so he's got my vote this week

reece(: 20-07-2013 05:18 PM

Glyn and Imogen were the only decent welsh HMs, not that that matters since I don't base HMs on nationalities.

Northern Monkey 20-07-2013 06:06 PM

Well,I think all these people voting for the Welsh to win are just sheep..........Lol......

I hate geographical bias. For God's sake vote for the best housemate regardless of where they are from and who they are!

I will never understand some of your very bizarre opinions.
