Neither have a case to stand on

Withano 24-06-2015 10:13 PM

Victor and Brian should leave her a penniless skank and then refund Ashleigh for the money that Helen stole from her

Defamation of character look it up.

Saying look like is different from saying you are.

qwerty42 24-06-2015 10:14 PM

Crimson Dynamo 24-06-2015 10:15 PM

People need to quit taking the hysteria pills

Patricia4 24-06-2015 10:17 PM

SoFarSoGood282 24-06-2015 10:21 PM

Under common law, to constitute*defamation, a claim must generally be false and have been made to someone other than the person*defamed. Some common law jurisdictions also distinguish between spoken*defamation, called slander, and*defamation*in other media such as printed words or images, called libel.


Helen would be the one without a leg to stand on because in order to be defamed you have to have been accused of or insinuated to have committed or be a criminal last time I checked marrying for money isn't a crime neither is being an ice queen so try again.

This.

Sue her for what. There was no defamation of character, she said look like. That's opinion. You're allowed have opinions, even if they are vile.

Niamh. 24-06-2015 10:33 PM

People actually defending Helen, I despair

Rob! 24-06-2015 10:58 PM

Two ex housemates suing her in the space of a week is pretty good going to be fair.

Even people in the wrong deserve defense when claims are being exaggerated. Helen did not break any laws in regards to defamation of character. She wasn't nice and she overstepped but she didn't defame. It wasn't slander.

Helen will never be penniless. She will just go back to selling her skanky body.

Wizard. 24-06-2015 11:20 PM

She never said he was a rapist/murderer, she said he looked like one. She didn't accuse him of the crime so case dismissed.

Vicky. 24-06-2015 11:22 PM

He could try, but he would fail. She was an utter twat tonight, but she didn't break any laws. The victor thing she is possibly on dodgy ground with mind.

This

to someone like Brian being called a murderer must have been heart breaking.

helen doesnt have a heart to break.

I get the feeling that channel 5 are worried. They realise that they crossed the line and allowed Helen to break every rule in the book. The buck stops with Channel 5, and the production team are sh****ing themselves.

Why else would they be all over Brian now, being nice as pie? when a housemate 'walks' and breaks the contract, they usually are not very happy with that housemate and certainly wouldn't be inviting them onto BOTS.

Good for Brian. He did the right thing by getting out of that hellhole.

sungrass 24-06-2015 11:31 PM

true - defamation was allowed and encouraged by BB in this situation = Helen is like a brute - she is not chipper and having her in there is irresponsible.

A world of a difference, well said.

Arrest Helen for slander!
 
The vile cowardly pigs at big brother who allowed this evil woman to call a decent man a rapist , a psycho and murderer should be ashamed of themselves...how the hell they didn't drag her into the diary room and kick her out ill never forgive

im shaking with rage watching this utter trash

the worst thing a man can be accused of is rape and murder

why should he have to put up with that?


she also slandered victor as a drug dealer who wasn't even there to defend himself and yet they still aired the footage? and emma willis fakely tried to laugh it off....victor too should sue channel 5 and big brother

Ive said this for years, this show is sexist against men and has gotten worse
the vile abuse women get away with is unbelievable...

these are the worst comments ive ever heard while watching this rapidly deteriorating show.....if it has been said against a woman or a gay person or if it had been a matter of race as with the delightful shilpa Shetty it would have made parliament as it did then

but its men and all men can be called rapists and murderers and no one cares, it didn't even merit an immediate warning...but of course the evil bore works for the daily star which is like working for big brother anyway

FCK YOU BIG BROTHER youre vile and evil like Helen and morally bankrupt:nono:

Robertocarlo 24-06-2015 11:36 PM

You cannot be arrested for slander in England. It's a Civil Court matter not a criminal one.
