Did Scott attend his sisters funeral?
 

Sorry if this has been brought up already and passed through the pages of time. But i was wondering if Scott did go to his sisters (I think sisters) funeral as we appear to have seen him, at some stage, on every nights HLs shows?

It's none of our business imo.

He must not have been close to his sister. I am sure most housemates would leave the house if their sibling has passed away.

who are you to judge anyone's response to something that personal? It's none of your business and has nothing to do with the TV show Big Brother.

He got very upset with Becky when she mentioned his sister, some might say his anger with Becky came straight out of the blue. It did suggest he's grieving for her.

We don't even know if it was his sister, other than the daily star i don't think anybody else reported it was! Last year Tom went to his grandfather's funeral but from the highlights we wouldn't have known.

Blimey - sorry I asked

Well if you can't respect someone's right to privacy over something as personal as that, then what do you have respect for? Certainly you've got to draw the line somewhere, don't you agree?

If he wanted privacy he should have went home. People are bound to be curious.

Ic so people's curiosity trumps the right to privacy? really?

I'm not saying it should, I'm saying it will. That's just the way people are.

He could have been. It does not have to necessarily be mentioned on the highlights show.

I think BB are keeping things about Scott and his loss close. And rightly so :)

Are you sure it is his sister? He said the other day to Becky I think when she said he was a nasty person something along the lines of "you wouldnt want to meet my sister then thas how we talk to each other all the time. Its a joke". If she had died would he really say that.

I understand the death of one of his family members was always going to cause controversy but it's not for us to decide what's appropriate for him to do. It's a personal matter and it's up to him to choose how to deal with it.

I agree with Lostalex and Redway, it is none of our business. It's a very private matter and I also agree as to the comment made above when Scott retorted to Becky about his Sister, clearly it is a sensitive subject.
I just hope, if he needs it that BB are giving him any support behind the scenes that he may need.

Yeah I don't see much point in speculating

Beastie i love your sig. She is beautiful

He could have more than one sister :p

If there are members on here who seriously labour under the stupid illusion that they are in any position to decide what someone who clearly has their own mind - and who they will never see again (and don't care much about beyond the show) - then I do worry.

Incidentally, coming from the guy who doesn't worry enough about the effects of smoking to not do it, that's saying something.

I will just say this. My mom died in 2005. And i didn't want to have anything to do with the funeral preparations. does that mean that i didn't love my mother? does that mean that i'm selfish and horrible? i had some family members that judged me based on that.

I would submit to people, that unless you have had such a major loss in your life, you don't know how you would respond.

Me not wanting to have anything to do with my mom's funeral had nothing at all to do with how much i loved her, and in many ways it was the exact opposite.

Does it not occur to anyone that maybe some people don't want to have anything to do with a funeral because maybe yu arn't very happy to be planning a PARTY for someone's death, that maybe you need to deal with that loss in your own way, and maybe you need to do things in your own way and in your own time.

When it comes to death i think people need to keep their opinions to themselves.

lostalex, calm down. Your replies seem very rude

i havn't said anything rude. If i did i'm sure you would have given me an infraction by now.

Because you haven't insulted anybody. But I don't agree that you can just shut a thread down like that and snap at people saying it's none of their business etc.

It's a forum, to discuss BB related stories, Scott's never going to find this forum and never going to read this thread.

It is strange that somebody wouldn't go to their sister's funeral

I didn't shut anything down, you are a mod though, so you actually do shut threads down. i think it's hilarious that you as a person that has actually shut threads down is accussing me of what you have actually done.

I didn't shut anything down, i'm just emotional about this issue because i know what it's like to be judged for the way i've greived about my loved ones. I have not been rude in any way though.


and saying that Scott is never going to read this threaD/ we have had many former housemates post on this forum, so why would you say that??

Don't take this personally but you're personal circumstance is of no interest to me and maybe you should not use it to justify dictating what people can and can't say. I WILL speculate about Scot. This is a discussion forum, Scot is on TV to be discussed and one of the few SLs with Scot is his possible bereavement. You don't like me discussing it, tough.

Don't you take this personally... everyone's personal circumstances colours everything they think and do, and sometimes using your own personal circumstances justifies your own opinions. We've heard an awful lot about your own personal circumstances, after all.

Everyone treats death differently and everyone copes differently. There is no right or wrong way, only what's right or wrong for you.

i never dictated what anyone can and can't say around here. I'm not a mod and i have no power over what people can and can't say. I only gave my opinion.

You telling people to keep their opinions to themselves = shutting thread down.

He went to his sisters funeral with half shaven red curly hair?

I don't have the authority to tell anyone what to do. I think i explained my position in a rational way.

There are certain mods on this forum that would love an excuse to infract and/or ban me, and i won't give them the satisfaction, and because they don't have an excuse to infract me, they decide to just try to intimidate me instead. I'm fully aware of what is going on here.

Sorry, but i'm on to your game.

:laugh: Seriously? I do not intend to intimidate anybody, I wouldn't know how to start. You need to just stop being so rude and snappy at people on this forum.

You stop that and you'll stop the MODs getting on your back. We're trying to make this forum a nice place for people to come on and not get into arguments with people, yet some members chose to be rude which then intimidates other members.

I'm not being rude dude, i'm giving my opinion about something that i've had personal experience with. Because i've had personal experience with this type of situation, i shared my experience, and your lack of sensitivity is more rude than anything i've said.

read every post i've made, they were all on topic and i made no attacks or rude statements to anyone.
Do i think people wanting to judge Scott based on how he mourns his loss is obscene and inappropriate? yes. i don't see how that's rude though.

You're pretty much shutting everybodies opinion down because you've experienced death, we've all experienced death. We all have opinions but it doesn't mean you get to quote everybody who has a different opinion to you and drum it into them that they shouldn't think that way.

well i havn't heard anyone else talk about their opinion from a personal point of view. i havn't shut anyone down. You know perfectly well that only mods can do that.

Closing a thread doesn't mean you shut it down. There are other ways of doing it

I'm leaving this now :idc:

Lostalex causing a scene again? Not like him.

Scott more than likely did attend his sisters funeral and now he's back in the house, his call whatever, people grieve differently.

I don't want you to leave, i just wish you'd talk about the issue of the thread, i.e, scott's loss and the issue of people wanting to judge him based on going to a funeral or not, but instead you've used an entire page to chastize me over something that you yourself even admit isn;t even a rule break. You tried to make the thread about me but i was on topic the whole time.

you can understand why i feel targeted now then.

A funeral only takes like an hour, maybe a few hours for the wake or whatever.

It would be very easy to slip away and the HL shows not say anything about it.

Scott wanted to keep it to himself (he said this when he was informed of the death, when he came back out of the DR) and I think his/his families privacy should be respected tbh
