Awful Treatment of James (not Fun or Joke)
 

When one is completely not willing to take part in physical and emotional prank (or whatever) of others, and it continues beyond resistance and not playing; it becomes borderline bullying.
It went too far in my eyes!! If it is all fun and joke, then on whose expense??

It looks like the young seem to ostracize the old..

If you mean the food fight clip James invited that behaviour by starting it, unfortunately it backfired on him and he got it back in triplicate.

That's the way I saw it too

They hassled him first AND HE RETALIATED, he didn't instigate it. Job done, kids scolded and the winner was James when he did the Alpha and told them to stop, which they did. Amazing how some people see things like they want to see it AS OPPOSED TO THE TRUTH.

It looked like things were gonna turn very nasty...

Bear certainly didn't like it and turned quite nasty (there's a surprise) .
He likes to dish it out but he didn't like the fact that he looked a fool covered in the brown stuff.:joker:

They started mauling him while he was cooking,he told them to stop,they started taunting him ,so he dropped the bag of powder over Bears head,then they did it back but had to go one better an use water too,James said that's enough,looks very much to me like Bears,heavyD etc,fault.

I'm surprised you're allowed to lay your hands on someone like that really, but BB is always inconsistent with the rules. The news story on their website tried to make out James was not 'a morning person' and the others were just acting like loud brash youngsters. Continuing the long tradition of biased presentation of news stories.

Where was this I've not seen it ?

James was being antagonised by those two prats, that Bear is one of the worst housemates ever.

maybe i was too early to judge based on a short clip, but the whole story and circumstances might be different..

I think you need to re watch as you have the situation completely arse about face. Those 2 twats started it.

Shown on BBOTS last night.

Don't you worry about James, if he really gets annoyed, he will annihilate them young ones mark my words. I just hope he's in there long enough so we can see it.

Funny thing is Bear and Heavy were deliberately winding him up. Bear doesn't even call James by his name...he refers to him as 'baldy' and Bear doesn't really like him. It was a deliberate act. I liked James tipping that coffee all over his head but he must have expected retaliation. James took it well and was right to put a stop to it...but you could tell he wasn't happy.

Tbh, i think that is Bear all over. It was ok for him to do what he wanted but when it came back at him he has to ramp it up more. There is definitely a nasty streak there.

People on the internet have compared him to Maxwell.

Thanks for that

On this series of BB anyway.

And I'm sure if the older Housemates were the majority the younger ones would be patronised out of the house like Jason tried to do to people like Ryan in the last Civilian BB.

I dont watch BOTS but someone put the video up ,you can see by the noms video a lot of people have put James up ,but I hope he stays

People might not like Maxwell on the Internet, but he was a big character for his series.

Although tbf nearly everyone except for the final two and Orlaith was big characters in BB6.:laugh:

Er,excuse me,Jason never patronised anyone,he told the truth about Ryan.:shrug:

Winding people up seems to be the theme this time

Heavy D started it, Bear joined in later ..,James took it a step too far but it was acceptable

Saira started it...Marnie took it a step too far but it was NOT ACCEPTABLE

The big diff is Heavy D was not setting out to be unkind like Marnie or to patronise and analyse like Saira....it was just lads banter and James gave as good as he got...it all went a bit far but it was James who cranked it up a gear and good for him....now the lads know who they're dealing with.

Marnie was a whole diff situation and actually made me angry as I watched....and I don't even particularly like Saira but I found the whole thing highly offensive.

NO...James didn't like it and took it up a gear.....you got it back to front there...I'm with James, someone hits you, hit em back twice as hard I say....but it want Bear who started pouring food around it was James
