Ashamed to be British?
 
Am i the only one who is concerned that the three biggest international celebrities in the house are getting the view that the british are a farting uncouth bunch of trogs? oh what wonderful ambassadors for our nation the goodie trio are.......

Nowhere 07-01-2007 10:47 AM

I doubt the celebs see the trio as a representation of ALL british citizens, I know when I meet someone, I don't judge them, and label everyone else (in their race/religion/colour etc) as the same. Every person is an individual,unique. So I'm not too worried,i'm finding them to be entertaining at the moment. :bigsmile:

Siouxsie 07-01-2007 10:47 AM

Good point but it is entertaining lol:thumbs:

Jade, Jackiey and Jack are the American equivallant of trailer trash. That's how Jermaine will see them as anyway.

Siouxsie 07-01-2007 11:00 AM

Thats very true Andy . They probably look like guests from the Jerry Springer show to Jermaine and Dirk.

Lool! That's a great comparison Scoob! :thumbs:

Wonder why we've never thought of that before!?

Although you could say Big Brother is almost becoming the equivalent of a Jerry Springer Show!

Oh yes and Dirk of course.

Thankfully the other Brit celebs are doing ok I think. I was even warming to Donny at the end. His quote about Jade and her family as he jumped over the fence was utterly priceless!

Emilee 07-01-2007 11:34 AM

I'm British lol.
And thats how i see them! :whistle:

easypeasy 07-01-2007 11:36 AM

A mental asylum, perhaps!? :hugesmile:

Siouxsie 07-01-2007 11:43 AM

They wouldnt pass the entrance exam to qualify for the asylum :spin2:

I dont think Jack is that bad to be honest, he does not really have a lot to say and when he does he just seems pretty polite.

Siouxsie 07-01-2007 11:49 AM

Yes i suppose he is very polite so i wonder what the attraction to Jade is then :thumbs:
I just find him a bit boring . Wish he would open his mouth a bit more thats all.

Ruth 07-01-2007 01:07 PM

I'm not ashamed to be British, but I do cringe if I think that people like Jade and her mother are considered to be typical of all Brits.

Where? Are we talking about in the house? because there are a couple of other brits who are nothing like the Jade trio, so why would the others percieve the goodies, as typical brits?

Siouxsie 07-01-2007 01:33 PM

good explanation nowhere:flower:

Chrizzle 07-01-2007 01:34 PM

I'm not ashamed to be British, even if the Goody's are in there.
If being British means being entertaining then bring it on!

Nowhere 07-01-2007 01:35 PM

Thanks scooby :bouncy:

The_Hitman 07-01-2007 01:42 PM

Its just the way modern British society is. This country isnt the great country it used to be, morals dont have an awful lot of value these days and everything seems to be about exploiting the media for money like Jade Goody (the 25th most inflilential person in the world.)

Im not worried. I have values, I know other people who have values, Ken Russell has values and people like Shilpa can come on tv and show people some values. Its all well and good ignorant selfish people having their day of glory, but you cant keep good people down, and the good will get back on top in Britain, of that im sure.

Chilltown 07-01-2007 01:44 PM

God I hope the Goody's go home within the next three weeks. :(
