its not even a real situation he can leave at any time
in a real life situation then yes i would feel the need to do something but not for a tv show where some one chooses to be there and can leave if he so wishes
Yes he can leave at any time but the point is he shouldn't have to walk out because bullies have made it hard for him. He worked hard to get there and has a right to remain there until he gets evicted. He should not have to walk at all.

Thats because there is nothing to complain about.

BB, for once, is right.

Freddie is in the house only throught his own choice, and he can leave at any time he wants.

He is an adult, an intelligent adult, who is able to asses his own situation and act accordingly. He dosent need nannys to watch over him and speak on his behalf.

He is where he chooses to be. Please try and understand that.

Seriously guys, by complaining you are only gonna force them the neuter and censor the show yet even further... This kind of behaviour is why Lisa tapping Freddie on the head wasnt shown on the HL. It's killing what tiny fraction of 'reality' thats left in the show.

Well, thats the game isnt it?

Noone said it was a nice, or fair, one.

Not that I have to justify myself to you, but at the moment I've LOADS of time on my hands!!! I can do what I want with it, free country and all that. You're obviously not too busy yourself......

:rolleyes::rolleyes:
Yeah with that in mind, could you please stop complaining about trivial things, so that the show is no cancelled because of people like you???:rolleyes::rolleyes:
I'm not going to sit and watch something that makes me uncomfortable and not say something about it. If that doesn't suit you I don't particularly care. There should be a limit to what entertainment is.

:mad:
boo hoo :rolleyes:

so you mean that theses sort of things should not be shown and swept under the carpet?

Addy 03-07-2009 05:52 PM

ignoring and just downright sleaze when they omited Lisa's poking Halfwit's head and saying he is paranoid!

How can that be fair for Halfwit? It doesnt show the true extent of the bullying!

BB is desperate and just covering their backside. Its a new low for BB!

Addy 03-07-2009 05:59 PM

How can C4 say its a reality show and they cant do anything but omit what was in reality done to Halfwit by Lisa???

Double standards.

Enid 03-07-2009 06:01 PM

Freddie is rock solid, he's not going to break. He's getting stronger with each week that passes.

Caramel77 03-07-2009 06:33 PM

Been bullied before so watching Freddie was very uncomfortable, excuse me for having a heart and there's no boo ho about it. I'm an extremely strong person who really doesn't give 2 cents if some people are pissed off that I complained.

okies 03-07-2009 06:38 PM

i got a similar response. i didnt expect them to do much about it, but the fact that theyve seen even a few of us complain and are aware that people arent happy is enough for me

bananarama 03-07-2009 06:40 PM

These need to get a life and forget about censorship moaners who complain about arguments occuring in the BB house are turning the series in to a treading on egg shells fest.......

We have enough trouble with the mind boggling fools at ofcom without encouraging BB to censor censor censor at every given moment because some poor sad sensitive noodle case can't bear hearing adult arguments.

This years BB thus far has been interfered with by BB far too early and has killed off one of the highlights of a reality show. Drama is its main strength to mamby pamby housemates and viewers alike is a nother effort to kill the series for good...........

You are just projecting what you (sadly) felt when you yourself was bullied onto Freddie and his situation though maybe? You are assuming, I think, that he feels now how you felt then, but there is no proof of that. His situation is clearly worlds apart from yours (unless you was a former HM? heh)

The truth is that he dosent need rescuing... he is an adult in a controllable environment, one which he can end at anytime he chooses to. He is the best judge of what he is going through, our intervention on his behalf isnt necessary.

Your intentions are good, I know that, but I think they are just misguided in this situation and will just serve to hurt BB in the future.

angelica89 03-07-2009 09:06 PM

Bullying
 
How do you complain???? Lisa is nothing but a ****in bullying cow so is Karly and Kris. Oh and well done Marcus he was spot on.....Sree needs to go Freddie to win.

brisbanebroncos 05-07-2009 10:26 AM

settle down guys, i made the comment tongue and cheek, read the rest of what i said after the first 10 or so letters, i act like an idiot, its what i do.

Thank you for contacting Channel 4 Viewer Enquiries regarding BIG BROTHER.

We are sorry to hear that you found the housemate's comments and actions
towards Halfwit offensive.

Big Brother has spoken to Freddie, a number of times, following his
arguments with a various housemates. As was shown in last night's
highlights show, Freddie took the decision himself to tackle Karly and Lisa
head on about some of their recent disagreements. Following his discussions
with Karly and Lisa, Big Brother spoke to Freddie in the Diary Room, where
Freddie said that he had had a good day and was pleased that he had spoken
to them. Freddie also talked to Siavash and Marcus throughout the day about
his relationships with other housemates and he continues to do so. Big
Brother also talked to both Karly and Lisa about their disagreements with
Freddie and will continue to monitor the situation.?

As you know, BIG BROTHER is not a scripted drama, but a reality programme
and one of the consequences of reality television is that at times
participants in the programme will express opinions or react in a way which
a viewer may disagree with or find upsetting. It is important that within
the context and structure of the programme that housemates have the right to
express themselves without censure as long as they do not contravene the BIG
BROTHER rules.

We do appreciate that some viewers will find certain comments or actions
unacceptable and we will always look at the context and the justification in
screening certain scenes or conversations in line with the Ofcom
regulations. We take our responsibility to our audience very seriously and
if a housemate, expressed views which were clearly in breach of the rules of
BIG BROTHER, then appropriate action would be taken.

I can assure you that any decision regarding the housemates is not taken
lightly and the production team are constantly reviewing the on-going
situation in the house as the primary concern of both Channel 4 and the BIG
BROTHER producers, is the welfare of the housemates.

We would like to assure you also that your concerns have been logged for the
attention of the programme makers.




No wonder Lisa's playing nice now......
My girlfriend also sent a complaint into Big Brother about this issue. She got, word for word, exactly the same comment back. Basically, they have skirted around the issue, as Freddie has not gone into the Diary Room and complained..maybe he doesn't want to be the grass? Maybe he wants to try and sort it out himself but needs some help from time to time. Lisa and that smug 'ladies man' Kris have been absolutely awful to him, and Big Brother has said nothing. Not one thing. They take the mick out of his accent..Marcus does that to Sree, he gets shopped into the Diary Room. Fair? No. So frustrating this year because they aren't sorting out what is right from wrong. Big Brother are the racist bullies and quite frankly i'm glad this is the last series because the whole attitude of the show is beginning to grate!

Kore 05-07-2009 11:33 AM

whats the point in complaining, they wont do anything about it.

i just think, if you dont like whats being shown, dont watch it. If the housemates are uncomfortable they have theyre own mind. They can leave at any time remember.

I'm sorry, but you've obviously never been bullied in your life, 'Mr Perfect'. The point in complaining is to show your feelings about the situation, and to make Big Brother aware of the fact that you disagree with them for not doing anything about the behaviour of housemates. We didn't expect Big Brother to receive our e-mail then instantly invite all parties involved into the Diary Room for punishment. Younger children watch the programme, and it's showing them that it's okay to bully others without the consequences of punishment, this is why i feel Big Brother should act.

Ah, i don't know why i bother, 1.9m viewers on an eviction night? How is the show still running?

ok.. /deep breath...

No, BB are NOT 'racist bullies'. Thats just ridiculous.

BB are forced to take certain actions regarding percieved racial attacks because they are forced to by a vocal minority of over sensitive knee jerk complainers who cry out at the slightest percieved offense.

If there isnt a history of complaints about an issue, BB tends to leave it alone to play itself out.

All complaining and letter writing does is force BB to further neuter and censor the show.

All HMs are in a very controllable situation that they have chosen to participate in. They are free to leave at any time. Noone is a victim on the show unless they choose to be. It is a game show and they all understand the rules.

Please, lets not throw around pointless and inflammatory statements like the one in your quote? It helps nothing.

No need to try and insult people.

Like others before you, you are obviously projecting your own past experiences on the HMs and assuming that they feel the same way as you did in your situation. There is no evidence for that.

The HMs are adults in a controllable situation. They are there by choice, and have the power to change it as they wish.

They don't need you to nanny them.

Insult people? Are you Big Brother in disguise?
I think more the fact that Big Brother reaches a wide audience. Part of this audience is children, or younger teens, impressionable. They see Kris as cool, and will love Karly as she is fit. They will copy these two housemates in their behaviour. All of the Anti-Bullying campaigner's hard work is being undone by a few people on one show. Luckily, of late, Freddie has reacted by giving it back, which shows the young un's what they should do if they encounter that situation.
Controlable situation? So they took the mick out of his accent and went unpunished, yet when Marcus did the same to Sree, he got whipped?
More unfair situation.

I'm not gonna rise to your goading, but you seem to have missed the point of what I am saying.

They didnt act on Freddie's accent being immitated because there wasnt a history of public complaint on the issue and he didnt play the victim card.

They did act on Srees though because there is, and he did.

It's as simple as that, nothing to do with BB's 'racism' at all. They are just forced to take certain actions based on the vocal reactions of a minority of over sensitive veiwers.

You are way over reacting to the 'bullying' in the house. You seem to want to create a victim out of Freddy, even though he obviously dosent want to be one.

What better example is there then for a show like BB showing a HM that is in a difficult situation face that situation, analyse it, and take positive strong action to improve it in a calm and healthy way?
