But yeah, comments aside I'd be finding him tiresome anyway.
If he'd made the comments a week ago it'd still be silly, that was my main point. The fact it was four years ago only heightens that really.

Like, if we're just going to judge housemates by their actions outside of the show, why don't we just get an entire background check of all of the housemates life histories with character references from people they know, and judge them on that, crown a winner and let's not bother with the series? Because if people are just going to hold things against housemates for things they've done outside of an entertainment programme and the false reality that the Big Brother house is, then I don't really see what the point of us watching is, or even the housemates bothering to show up.

Those being to judge housemates by their life histories (of which we know very little about, btw - a few tweets don't tell you everything) as if it's at all relevant to an entertainment television programme? Or to judge housemates as people rather than as housemates? Which is counterproductive. Or perhaps both?

Either way, there'd still not be much point in watching, so maybe you shouldn't bother? Might be best for the series too
