she made a mistake! people should get over it! people that didn't like the look of her from the start are just looking for something to bash her with!
Should she have put a dummy like voice when she made a mistake perhaps? Like sophie reade who didn't know where anything was? would that have been better?

It gets more confusing when comparing the British Isles & the UK... The whole of Ireland & Great Britain make up the British Isles... The UK consists of England, Wales, Scotland & Northern Ireland, but does not include the Isle of Man or the Channel Islands...
