Perhaps making an effort to find out how age and brain injury can affect a person and their abilities to carry out what are simple acts of cleanliness when we are young, might not go amiss. Not legally requiring a carer does not mean that an elderly person does not still find such activies difficult. You clearly demonstrate a complete inabilty to understand that.
If you object to old people who find this difficult going into bb, maybe you should voice that opinon to bb and attempt to encourage them to disciminate against old people and keep the show simply for the plastic, brain-dead rubbish from Towie and Geordie Shaw. I think far more people would be offended by that!

I don't have a lack of understanding when it comes to that tyvm, i'm perfectly aware that old people have difficulties.
I think the problem is that people are painting Gary out to be this fragile old man when he's not, he was rolling around on the floor with the rest of them one day towards the end of the series, even with his knee brace on, people who need help to even get into the shower, can't do that.
I never once said i object to older people going onto the show did i? I simply said that no-one went in there to look after him, they aren't carers, nor did they sign up to be, Gary is way more capable that anyone is giving him credit for, people shouldn't have to be running round after him 24/7 in there, but they did go out of their way to help him, whether they disliked him or not, whether they bitched about him or not, it doesn't take away from them doing things for him when they didn't need to, but they did because they felt they had to.
