Helen Wood's Racist Remarks Edited Out Of Show

Quote:

Helen Wood has been warned multiple times in the Big Brother house, pushing some fans to call for her pass to the final week of the competition to be revoked.

In one of her latest arguments - to be seen in tonight's highlights episode - Helen was seen mocking fellow housemate Ashleigh's accent - who's from Northern Ireland - in a video uploaded to the Big Brother YouTube account.

However, the video was swiftly taken down by Channel 5 who replaced it with the same one, but with the racist undertones edited out of the video.

Having reached out to Channel 5 for comment on the removal and editing of the video FemaleFirst has so far gained no response.

This isn't the first time we've seen things go unaired or edited out by Channel 5. When Jale was on the outside of the groups in the house, she commented that she had been called a "non-woman" whilst speaking to Danielle, but this was never shown on the main show or Big Brother's Bit On The Side, or even addressed.

Similarly, there have been reports that Helen has received over ten warnings to-date, and keeps raking them in, but we've only ever seen two on-screen. Former housemate Matthew Davies replied to a fan on Twitter saying she had been reprimanded "around 15 times".

Pauline was also reportedly warned for her behaviour towards Jale, but once again we never heard anything about this.

Are Channel 5 doing their best to keep the show entertaining by glossing over cases which really should be made into a big deal, or are viewers over-reacting and getting the wrong end of the stick? How would you like to see Helen punished for her actions in the house?

Kinda annoying how they just edit her mocking Ashleigh's accent out of the video and then don't comment on it at all. I'm not sure why they're protecting her from the public when she's already a finalist...

Mocking an irish accent is not racist

They had a task a few weeks ago, encouraging them all to do impressions of the others!

I don't write the articles, I read themhttp://exhalecdn.breatheheavy.com/pu...ueenflopga.gif

Helen the racist, Danielle the homophobe

Eject them both and it would improve the show for the second half

Just cause she is crap at it, doesnt make it ok!

I also think he voice is like grinding metal.........

Mimicking an Irish accent is a "racist remark"? :laugh2:

The straws! :laugh3:

Ashleigh has mimicked quite a few housemates whilst slagging them off, is that racist?

I have had enough of Hell-en and her racialismist abuse of the Irish and their proud heritage in the potato wars

sick of it

:fist:

The cheek when she's got the most common trash accent in the house

Not sure how you can call Danielle a homophobe??

If its part of her religion to believe what she believes!

Im sure you wouldnt say the same thing about a Muslim HM, would you?

Plus I have never heard Danielle having a pop at gay people, she just said she didnt agree with gay marriage, which within the catholic church is not acceptable!

For something to be racist it has to have historical connotations

Unless Helen stood on a chair brandishing a plastic AK 47 wearing a balaclava and shouted in a broad Belfast accent 'Britons out of Ireland'

Then it's not racist

Well tbf on your OP it did sound like you thought that it was racist.

Tbh people would attack Helen if she sneezed at this point, it's getting quite pathetic from the media and the viewers that watch the show.

It doesn't surprise me that Helen is racist. She's from Bolton after all.

well said Mockinator!

She wasn't even mocking the accent. She was mocking Ashleigh by mimicking her, just the same as when the housemates were mocking one another in the diary room and pretending to be Toya saying "Calm the **** down!"

Nothing to do with her being Irish and everything to do with her childishly imitating Ashleigh.
