Allowed to have a view that isn't fashionable
 
What a fantastic interview from a wonderful, entertaining housemate. Well done Ann. :clap1:

The attitude towards someone like Ann is "She can have her view because she's old and she'll be dead soon so it doesn't matter"

It's the rest of us who have something to fear over the next 25 years.

I've quite liked Ann in there but I thought it was mean spirited to call out Emma's interviewing ability and try and show her up like that. It's not a combative political interview, it's supposed to be a friendly chat about her time in the house, there was no need for her to be so defensive

Marsh. 02-02-2018 10:17 PM

God forbid society no longer tolerate dated bigots.

Can’t wait for the victim complex millennials to take over!!

She’s allowed to have a view that isn’t fashionable but people aren’t allowed to act in any certain way around her which she deems to be offensive (which is literally anything)

Huh...emma pushed her and pushed her to waver from her views even though she stated clearly the first time..i found emma really rude and judgemental....something she should never...EVER be.

smudgie 02-02-2018 10:23 PM

I enjoyed the interview.
Ann sticks to her principles, she isn't interested in currying favour.

It's Emma's job, she's a big girl and she was pushing.

poppsywoppsy 02-02-2018 10:35 PM

Emma is amateur compared to Ann.

Loved the crowd being fair at the interview.

Marches 02-02-2018 10:36 PM

Wait did Ann kick off or something I couldn’t watch

Emma was asking the same question over and over again though in slightly varying ways. Was slightly painful to watch her try her hardest to get Ann to say Shane had changed Anns views when obviously he did not :laugh:

Yaki da 02-02-2018 10:41 PM

Did Emma ask any evictee if Ann changed their minds?

It was a bit poor tbh , no mention of Ann's friendship with Amanda or the jacuzzi Emma just talked about her beliefs more or less.

Tbh Emma didn't talk much about Ann's time in the house it was more about her politics,so can't blame Ann really but I don't think she was rude to Emma

Her time in the house was 99% about her politics.

Shane J was shoving his beliefs down everyone's throat apart from the three weeks he got side tracked falling in love with a vile human being who disrespected women :shrug:

She used that friendship against her...they must have looked and looked and looked and all they could come up with was amanda saying bollox....it stunk for me..you could see emmas disaproval all over her face..

It was an awful interview. Emma was being a bitch. How many times did she have to say Ann was going home to an empty house? Nasty.

Funny how people are criticizing Emma tonight when the same people were praising her for being the same way to Andrew. Talk about double standards.

Yeah I agree with this tbf, it was obvious what Ann's answer to the question was, she answered it clearly so there was no need to carry on with it.

I don't think she was actually talking about Ann changing her views though, it was more about whether or not she'd be willing to be more open minded, which is possible for anyone however strongly considered their views are.

Ann is who she is and she's not changing for anyone , and even if you don't agree with her atleast you know she won't turn into Dr Jekyll and mr hyde like some hm's :whistle: . And you know where you stand with her.

The "bollox" question drew attention to Ann's double standards re. swearing. It's ok when her bezzy mate does it, but not others.
Well done Emma.

Cal. 03-02-2018 08:06 AM

Emma was brilliant with Ann. That’s not a lot of people Emma would allow to speak to her like that, as we’ve seen with the likes of Helen Wood, Stephen Bear and Winston McKenzie. She’s got a bloody gob on her!

She explained it was about context which was a fair reply

I didn't really get why Emma laboured the point that Ann lives alone, she seemed to be intimating that there was something wrong with that and that Ann must be lonely which I thought was a bit odd, I doubt she would have laboured that point with any other older housemate, a lot of people both male and female will find themselves on their own at Ann's age either through divorce, losing a partner or just because they were never interested in having a partner in the first place, I thought it was okay to be asexual or to choose how you live these days

Context? :laugh: What a convenient excuse.
Before you could at least claim she had some standards, even if they were dubious.
But now it's clear that like most politicians she is a bloody hypocrite. On top of being a bigot and killjoy. Sad.

Yes, Courtney has said many times that he cannot keep relationships going, so he isn't exactly leading a fulfilled life either. Emma didn't ask him about that.

Shouldn't worry about it, Ann doesn't.
