Default Was this episode being aimed for 5 year olds?

I know that I can be irritable, which I freely admit.

But to me, last night's episode felt like a 5 year old's attempt at trying to grasp Politics, I honestly thought that I was meant to be watching BB not CBeebies.

And the editing team bleeping out Dean's swearing towards the end of the episode, we're not all scared little lambs that need a safe space you know, ITV.

What do you guys think?

I liked the fact Dean got annoyed, showed a different side to him. I don't recall much being bleeped out before.

We are living in a society which is becoming more sanitised by the day Mock.

I didn’t hear anything being bleeped out. I heard the C word. Maybe they bleeped it on itvx if that’s where you watch

I had it recording on ITV2.

Thankfully I could make out what he was saying, but preferably I don't really like ITV trying to censor words on Big Brother.

Yeah he dropped the CU Next Tuesday. Considered the most derogatory word. I personally enjoyed last night's episode as it had a sly dig at the powers that be, or at that time. Quite blatantly. I thought it was quite well executed and entertaining.

To add. We all have different views on things which is sometimes refreshing when we have different stances on subject matter, or the way it's portrayed.

…I don’t think the word was cut/edited for the fan’s little delicate ears so much as BB didn’t want that to be the focus of media attention, maybe…?…and it would have been with calls for AXE IT/outrage BB and the like…also that CBeebies approach as you say, Mock…?…well there will be fans with different political views and I think sometimes, it takes that type of stripped back lightness and approach for us all to laugh together, no matter what our political leanings because politics gets far too agitating at times…we’ll, lots of times…

They always bleep out the C word before watershed same with the swear word MF .

The cbeebies bit was Lily thinking she could be prime minister, she doesn't even know what an election is .

Emma was good I'll admit.

She helped stop the Task from being a disaster imo.

I mean, in a world where people like Lily can vote maybe we do need to aim stuff at 5 year olds.

It terrifies me that some have an equal say in the future of our country in all honesty.

But, overall I had a good time with it as an episode. The super short edits ruined it a little, but in terms of modern BB it was a good time.
