It was an awful interview. Emma was being a bitch. How many times did she have to say Ann was going home to an empty house? Nasty.

Funny how people are criticizing Emma tonight when the same people were praising her for being the same way to Andrew. Talk about double standards.

Yeah I agree with this tbf, it was obvious what Ann's answer to the question was, she answered it clearly so there was no need to carry on with it.

I don't think she was actually talking about Ann changing her views though, it was more about whether or not she'd be willing to be more open minded, which is possible for anyone however strongly considered their views are.

Ann is who she is and she's not changing for anyone , and even if you don't agree with her atleast you know she won't turn into Dr Jekyll and mr hyde like some hm's :whistle: . And you know where you stand with her.

The "bollox" question drew attention to Ann's double standards re. swearing. It's ok when her bezzy mate does it, but not others.
Well done Emma.

Emma was brilliant with Ann. That’s not a lot of people Emma would allow to speak to her like that, as we’ve seen with the likes of Helen Wood, Stephen Bear and Winston McKenzie. She’s got a bloody gob on her!

Well done Emma.

She explained it was about context which was a fair reply

I didn't really get why Emma laboured the point that Ann lives alone, she seemed to be intimating that there was something wrong with that and that Ann must be lonely which I thought was a bit odd, I doubt she would have laboured that point with any other older housemate, a lot of people both male and female will find themselves on their own at Ann's age either through divorce, losing a partner or just because they were never interested in having a partner in the first place, I thought it was okay to be asexual or to choose how you live these days

Context? :laugh: What a convenient excuse.
Before you could at least claim she had some standards, even if they were dubious.
But now it's clear that like most politicians she is a bloody hypocrite. On top of being a bigot and killjoy. Sad.

Yes, Courtney has said many times that he cannot keep relationships going, so he isn't exactly leading a fulfilled life either. Emma didn't ask him about that.

Shouldn't worry about it, Ann doesn't.

Yeo nothing! And the thing about the cats I think was a deliberathe slight as well, in fairness to Rylan he is far more professional and doesn't show any bias

Jamie89 03-02-2018 10:54 AM

She said as well that she'd reasoned herself into forming her views over a number of years which was interesting, I think it goes to show that they aren't as dictated by her religion as often gets suggested.

Oop I didn't watch, what happened?

Emma basically asked her if the conversations in the house has made her reflect, she gave quite a firm no but Emma continued to push the question anyway, and then Ann said something like 'you can keep asking me the same question but you'll get the same answer' and Emma seemed a bit awkward about it.

Jamie89 03-02-2018 11:05 AM

Asking about Ann's dead cats was probably more awkward though :laugh:

Oh right. Well she should know with Ann that there's no changing her views, whether it be a situation or general life :laugh:

Actually what Ann said was right, it was the context of it as it was so random it WAS funny,no one expected it, but the constant swearing used by the 'boys' is bloody annoying and some swearing is said in an aggressive way as was Andrews when he called Ann a twunt,I have to say Bollox is my favourite swear word and usually makes me laugh,there were other things Emma could have spoken about imo.

bots 03-02-2018 11:21 AM

the fact that they analyzed a months worth of footage in the house and the only thing they could find was that she laughed once when someone said bollocks says it all

Livia 03-02-2018 11:22 AM

I'm usually a big fan of Emma, but I was really disappointed with her last night and her whole approach to Ann. Yes, Emma, Ann lives alone. No, her cats are dead now... do you have ANY researchers on the show at all? Emma's approach was not only kind of spiteful but also surprisingly patronising... she had that face on that some people usually use when they're dealing with someone with special needs.

Equality, eh?

That's funny to you? After I've read your posts full of how we should all be accepting?

THIS is what spoilt CBB for me.
