Would someone please clarify for me whether those crisps were actually Sunshine's instead of having pizza? If so, why did so many people give her a hard time? Does anyone else think that Nathan, Ife, Keeva etc were really rude? If they were my crisps I'd really tell them where to go....

I didn't see it but by all accounts my judgement is that they were out of line.

According to Wikipedia -

'The suffix -gate derives from the Watergate scandal of the United States in the early 1970s, which resulted in the resignation of U.S. President Richard Nixon. Note that Watergate does not meet the -gate construction rule, as the scandal was named after the Watergate complex in Washington, D.C.; the complex itself was named after the "Water Gate" area where symphony orchestra concerts were staged on the Potomac River between 1935 and 1965'

Sunshine did only get two tiny Vegan pizza's & the others has loads of mahoosive Domino's pizza's to share, but she still shared her tiny pizza's with them... Then that vile Scabby & her shadow Quaver started going on about her not sharing her crisps & how selfish she was... even though they got a slap up three course meal the other day!

If I was Sunshine I would have sat on the crisps, thus reducing them to crumbs, then gone into the bedroom & poured them over the heads of Scabby & Quaver... Scabby would have been picking bits out of her filthy hair (that she only washes every two weeks) for weeks...

Well, watergate was a big drama, so people use "gate" i.e "crispgate" to refer to something as a drama as well.

Hope that helps.

As far as i understood it last night, they all got crisps and pizza as a eviction night treat but sunshine left hers for later (although picked off the veg off the pizza) - shabby and caoimhe asked if they could have either the pizza or the crisps, initally sunshine said no but under pressure she eventually said they could have the pizza but she wanted the crisps for a crisp sambo when they got some bread!

i personally thought they were way out of order!

There is no need to aggressively respond I did point out that i wasn't certain by saying as far as i know!

Either way they were out of order in suggesting she was wrong not to give them the crisps!

Tell me what was aggresive, I won't respond again, mate. The capitals were to emphasize the fact that they were Vegan crisps.

But that will be the last time I respond!

Since the water gate scandal of the 70s "gate" has been used as a suffix to express a scandal or high drama event!

It made sense in Eastenders when the Sharon/Phil affair was called 'Sharongate' because that invovled the scandalous recording and then the big fall out - much like Watergate. But since then it's almost lost all meaning

Sunshine got crisps because the others got pizza, it was her treat. They didn't give her a treat at first which was equivalent to the pizzas the other HMs got. Sunshine has already shared some of the vegan pizza she got as I understand. The other HMs are just greedy, they ate well enough last night anyway.

And all this was really just to try to get a controversy up before nominations on Monday. The usual tactics are question her about her name or her vegan diet to isolate her, so that's what the bitches were doing.

She's already shared the pizza. It's not like she gets very much for her to eat from the shopping list either.

Her CHOICE ,she CHOOSES to be vegan so should not be treat as a special case

And the others CHOOSE not to be vegan. If they chose that lifestyle, they would get the same menu as Sunshine, and wouldn't need to guilt trip her out of her food. Works both ways

so what? she isnt under any obligation to share anything with housemates who she knows dislike her

you clearly dont like sunshine, would you share some crisps with her?

she should have eaten them all sat on the grass in front of smokers bench while they all sat there salivating, licking each crisp then offered one to the camera "u want a crisp gollum"

[Alpertinator]

Yeah it sounds like they were very unreasonable. Who were they anyway? Which housemates went all mardy at Sunshine?

BTW Nixon was an American President!
