I don't see any real nastiness this series but there are undercurrents of not very fair play.
In the main to Dexter for instance,who has become an easy target for 'all' the housemates, not just one or 2, he is not given an easy time at all in there.

I was livid too last night when BB themselves forced him to sit through all those nominating against him,then virtually humiliated Dexter, keeping him right to the last, only to then tell him he was barred from nominating after asking him to stand up.
I don't think I have witnessed such a rotten way of doing things as to a housemate before by BB especially in front of all the others too.
Way out of order in my opinion.

I do though take on board that we are only observers as to all else going on with the housemates and each other and that we also only get very short periods of seeing bits of what goes on all day every day.
They live with each other and sleep in the same bedroom with each other for every hour,24 hours a day for 7 days every week.
That must be really difficult and there is always likely to be some friction and getting at each other.

So,I don't really see anyone as nasty.intimidating or bullying myself. I can see why maybe Dan could be seen as a bit intimidating by some of the others just by his being a former Detective,however we are 3 weeks in now and they all should really be used to that now.
That is likely his personality from his training, just as others have negative elements to their personalities too.

I also haven't the slightest problem with people standing up for themselves or for others in the house, just as on the other side,if someone has something to say they have the right to say it,right or wrong though it may be as to what they are saying.
