i am going off her, she comes over badly in interviews. If it was just Ann, i could let it go, but its been countless occasions now. She is far to bias and far to light weight for her to be considered seriously. We could say its only BB who cares, but when its set up as a method of challenging peoples behaviour in the house it should at least be consistent and professional.

Emma is beautiful and the best presenter in the UK Ann doesnt like human contact which was established in the house and Emma possibly decided to respect that. The only time I saw someone hugging Ann it was very very awkward

She didn't refuse a hug. That would imply Ann offered one and never. Perhaps Emma was being respectful of Ann's boundaries.

Emma never hugged Shane Lynch either but lo-and-behold no outrage to be seen over that :laugh:

For Emma to 'refuse' to hug her, Ann would have to offered her a hug in the first place. She didn't. So no refusal.

Ann doesn't like a lot of physical contact. She was also sat down. She'd also just been very abrupt to Emma. I saw no reason for a hug.

And if all of that STILL isn't good enough, Emma offered Ann a hug as soon as she came out of the doors of the house.

exactly!

misleading title and an issue over nothing.

You mean like she did with most of the hm's - just like she did with most of them again at the end of each interview?

Whether Ann doesn't like physical contact is beside the point. She could've asked "Do you want a Hug, Ann"? But she just swanned off leaving Ann looking bemused...then again, maybe Ann was bemused by her shocking interview technique and inability to handle "Difficult" hm's after all these years.

Yes you are quite right about my research being as bad as Emma’s. That is because I am neither a researcher nor Emma. I am merely a member of a forum which allows us to state our views. The views I stated were my own views as I was trying to think of any possible reason (of which there could be many) for why Ann chooses to represent herself in the manner she does.

I am grateful to you for your research which now disavows me of my clearly incorrect submission.

I will now have to give some thought as to other possible reasons why Ann behaves as she does if it is not for financial gain.

Thank you.

If Emma had of hugged Ann I could imagine a similar thread demonizing her for having the audacity to hug Ann.

:facepalm:

Utterly disgusting replace Emma with kim woodburn

Ann was rude through the whole interview and made a comment about how many times Emma asked her the same question about Ann changing her mind in regards to her personal views.
