It is not particularly blatant. Who knows, perhaps if this Big Brother was set in 2007, a media shitstorm might have happened by now that would force BB to do something.

Or would they!?
What did they do stop Shilpa been bullied? nothing!

Ok, name some reasons. There aren't actually any genuine reaons for treating him this way because he's a nice guy and has more patience than about 90% of people i know or will meet. He doesn't even retaliate to their childish behaviour.
I can understand why you, and the housemates, might find him incrediably annoying. Yet surely they could at least try to see some of the positive sides to him? He doesn't purposefully try to piss them off, it's just the way he is. The grown up thing to do would be to accept you don't like certain things about him but to try to at least relate slightly and act like a civil human being instead of saying "i can't talk to you" and walking away. How is Freddie meant to annoy Kris less if he's just going to walk away everytime Freddie tries to resolve it.

you'd think so. if he wasn't white they would've done something by now.

sad but true

yes i think your absolutly right its a disgrace poor freddie i really cant understand why there allowing it to go on .I think the only way for them to do anything about it is to complain to ofcom about it which is what i have allready done but unfortunitly they need more than just me ringing so come on everyone if u really mean what you say ring up and complain lets put a stop to it .

How can they avoid him? They are lcoked in a house with him. They are doing tasks together. I'm sure if they could they would avoid him but they can't. Bitching about somebody is not bullying. If this was the case with Sophia, nobody would be complaining.

You also contradict yourself when you say you "avoid them" and yet "don't walk away from them when they are attempting to talk to me".

When ti comes to Halfwit, they other housemates can do no right in the eyes of his fans. To him, he is god.

The best thing his fans can do is take pleasure in knowing that he is most likely win this show.

because he isnt a different race.... its true though. if he was indian, pakistani or whatever theyd have picked up on it by now and thered be (another) race row. but because hes white the bullying almost goes unnoticed.

Your about to get flamed, but spot on.

I agree, i feel bad because i have hated on him. But now like alot of people Ive realised he is just being himself an being bullied for no reason.

Yes i have to agree ,i HATE the overused word ,but in this case it is true ,bb needs to step in

VERY true ,Shilpa never got this much abuse and we all know what happened then

Oh come off it, FFS. You know what I meant by 'avoid him' Obviously you dont avoid someone when they are trying to have an honest, one on one convorsation with you. Thats just called being an unreasonable prick. In fact, YOUR the one contradicting yourself. By simply walking away, Kris perfectley demonstrated that you CAN avoid him.

I am sure things would have been different had the others been in the room. Theirs dozens of more point I want to make, but some members have already made them.

Also, please. Dont get your knickers in a twist just because the boy has fans. His not god, but I am backing him due to the fact that he is a loner based on isolation due to his class status.

Sophie nominated him with the line 'he says too many intelligent words!'. Nuff said.

I get it, but it shouldnt go unnoticed, they should do something about it, its bullying, but thats what I think.

Its actually become quite hard to watch now bet it wouldn't be so bad if you watched live feed all day as it would be diluted but it seems every night its all about the freddie bashing.
I think big brother will do something to shake things up maybe full house up for eviction or something to make sure its more than just freddie and one other up each week.

Who was the chap ( Indian Scottish )who got "sent to coventry" a few series ago ? mad as a march hare ,but still terrible ,bb are letting it happen again

You are right that they don't like freddie, and this is why they are constantly making cruel comments to his face and behind his back, apart from Siavash and Marcus. It's more than obvious and there is surmountable evidence proving the various forms of bullying..

Shabaz! What a hero!

''Dontah fack with me fellahs! I'll hide your crisps!''

How come Siavash and Marcus do not dislike him? Even Angel had no problem with him..

Most of them are being downright nasty. Surely it is bordering on bullying?!
I think there needs to be someone in there who has a pair of balls and actually stick up for Freddie.
More housemates please. The posher the better!!! Haha.

what comes around, goes around and I cant wait to spend my money to get these a**hol*s out!

This is bullying.

Kris is playing the classic school yard bully tactics.

He is trying to isolate Freddie from the rest of the group
and make him the butt of the joke at every chance.

Lisa has already made it clear how she feels about Freddie
calling him a 'D@ck ed' to his face and looked like she was ready to rip into Freddie more but for only Marcus stepping in and putting her in her place.

Kris & Lisa are nasty bits of work.

I don't like Freddie, but what I see that bunch do to him and the nasty aproach they have towards him, fills me with anger.

That is why this is bullying of an insidious and sustained approach. Any decent minded adult (sadly, not much of those in the BB house) would challenge this type of behaviour. Instead, their closed little community fails to recognise this.

They are intimidated by his perceived popularity, they are unwilling to acknowledge he may actually have sympathy, if not support from the viewers. So, all they can rely on is their own petty vindictiveness and mutual validation of such appalling behaviour.

Since he went in, I have disliked Freddie, but I feel sympathy towards him for the alienation and contemptous manner they show him.

Even if Freddie gets voted out this week, the others behiour will not be forgotten. To my mind, only Siavash has shown any human decency and support towards Freddy, this has put him in good stead with the viewers. Needless to say however, Siavash will be the next victim the "hounds of hate" will be baying after.

I agree with the majority of the posts here and a lesser person would have walked by now. They humiliate Freddie whenever they can. The joke is nearly always on him. Sometimes I find it very uncomfortable to watch. If Freddie had gone to the diary room with a token in exchange for beer, before consulting the others, he would have been hung out to dry! When Kris and Charlie tried it on it hardly raised a ripple.

Lets all complain!

:spin:


I love Karly, I really do but tonight I just felt sick watching her doing that to Freddie :mad:

Siavash/Marcus and Freddie need to be in the finale!

There the only 3 that arent being dick heads and following Lisa and Kris!

Great thread :thumbs:
