Double standards isn't it ?

Yes it is....the lads were only messing about with James...,they're trying to get a reaction and to get his attention ...James isn't integrating with the young ones and they're trying to accept him by joking around with him ....I actually think they want him to join in more and are trying to invite him into the group....I don't think it was meant in a maliscaous way

Saira situation is very different, she is integrating with the young ones but she's doing it by analysing them and patronising them...she has rubbed them up the wrong way and the three lads weren't picking on her in the kitchen, they were telling her how they feel about it....something she does all the time with everyone else...she just doesn't like it done to her

Marnie is a whole different thing and her situation with Saira was disrespectful, distasteful and offensive. And people who defend her while at the same time attack the boys are hypocrites. Marnie was humiliating Saira on purpose...the boys were just reacting to Saira by engaging in a conversation.

James can't expect to do that and then not get anything back in return, I bet he uses this as some sort of sympathy vote cos he's going to be up, and with luck he'll be going, especially since it's VTS and when he's up against someone like Bear

Agree with all you say :clap1::clap1::clap1:

I don't accept that someone can lay their hands like that on someone, it was clearly designed to try and undermine. Both Heavy D and Bear are like a couple of stupid school playground idiots who think they can intimidate someone. I think most will be cheering when James pours that powder over Bear.

He did indeed, he emptied 'all' the coffee over Stephen first, you cannot do that and not expect some retaliation afterwards.

As has been the case in many series of food fights,they do escalate too anyway.
James has no sympathy from me on this one.

Heavy D rubbed his head and he asked him to stop then HD and Bear continued to jeer and taunt him, he was cooking food so wasn't really in a position to walk away, good on him for dumping coffee over Stephen, he was being very childish along either his mate

They went too far teasing James to be fair...

I agree with this went right off Heavy D after this and Bear is such a petulant child really can't stand him at all..poor James

HD looked like an overgrown play ground bully :bored:
