Careful Kazezza.. don't make accusations like that.

Even if she didn't mean it in a racist way, it was stupid and she should know better, she needs to learn that she can't get away with everything she says, there's many racial undertones to calling a black person a gorilla specially given the fact that she is a caucasian woman saying it, white men enslaved black men and called them apes 'cos they thought they were inferior to them, the word "gorilla" carries a stigma to it and I wanna believe she didn't know what was coming out of her mouth (mainly 'cos she's just a moron) but it still was an ignorant comment and needed to be addressed, can you imagine if this would have keep going on? the black british community would have been all up in arms, Big Brother did the right thing even though it's clear at this point that they aren't really running this show anymore.

I didn't even occur to me that Caroline was being racist.

Housemates that look like gorillas:

Carole BB8
Jay BB 12
Dave BB11
Mario BB 9
Chris BB13

it was not racist the problem is word association in the past and present real racists will call a black person any number of names that refer to members of the ape family

if she said he was an over weight unhygenic lazy smelly excuse of a man we would not have a problem with it!

Awful,her parents must so proud of what they have produced

I don't think it was in a racist way, if she would of called Chris it people would not have a problem..

Obviously not, Chris is white, white people were never referred to as Gorillas as a racist slur.............black people were.......

Yeah but i don't think Caroline said Gorilla in a racist manor, i just feel like people are over reacting and using this as a new reason to dislike Caroline by claiming she's racist.. What i was typing made more sense in my head.

Regardless of whether she meant it in a racist way or not, it is a well known racist insult, it was the first thing I thought of when she said it so she needed to be reprimanded for it

Niamh get over it, just because you look like a trout

Be quiet badger boy

I thought to call Black people a Monkey and make Monkey noises was the common racist slur. I've heard of white and black people being called Gorillas for the fact they're big and hairy.

Yes me too,and as you know Im sick of racist/bully being bashed out daily on here,

Same i've not heard Gorilla as a racist term but as an insult to "big people".

Yup. She thought Deena was the culprit of the curry powder incident. Tsk tsk little white rich girl, so spoiled, with superiority complex :devil:

It was yet more disgusting poison from a dreadfully behaved person. can you imagine the poison she would spew if the cameras werent rolling 24/7 she is one of the most grotesque bullies Ive ever seen in the BB house

big lol:joker:

Caroline appears to me to look for 'weaknesses' that she perceives in everyone, is it really rational to believe that suddenly she's going to over look the fact that Adam is not white and could in her eyes, easily be targeted for that kind of racist attack? I don't think it is!!

Don't be so ridiculous.

she spews to much venomous poison about everyone , Im beyond caring whether shes racist sexist or whatever other ist you can think of....her behaviour is a disgrace and yes of course shes a sociopath

As I predicted nasty peice of work would end up humiliating herself and having to grovel and play the innocent little posh girl.But being spiteful is in her DNA-she wont be able to contain her bile and may yet say something that gets her the boot.

In these hyper sensitive times regarding racism to call a black man a gorrilla is at the very least idiotic and incredibly niave.You can quickly end up in court for much the same as this.

ofcom has had over 50 complaints already about caroline. not as bad as conor though

Showing her getting a real warning on air during the same show makes a difference. If they'd done the same for Conor, most of that would've been avoided.

If somebody stepped on an ant I bet they'd get about 25 :P
