Default my e mail to ofcom re Freddie

For days now bb10 has been painful viewing ,but last nights show was too much ,The treatment of one of the housemates(Freddie/Halfwit)was down and out bullying ,Lisa,Kris,Karly and in some way Charlie are victimising him to make him walk from the show after nominating him for the 4th week running and the public keeping him in ,After a row with Karly last night Lisa,Kris,Charlie all came into the garden and were pacing about around Freddie like a pride of vultures around the prey ,BB called 2 of the husemates to the diary room and talked to them ,but im sorry this is not enough ,Shilpa Shetty was NEVER bullied like this and we all know what happened there !! Sree the other day was ridiculing Freddie dyxlexia,if it had been Freddie doing the same thing about Sree colour or faith it would have been different ,I am a member of bb forums and they are all up in arms about the bullying in thsi years bb ,PLEASE intervine ,Thank you ,Linda

I agree that you were totally right to complain, although feel I must add that Shilpa was faced with one of the most vile and repulsive people I have ever seen on television!!!

HELLIWONTGO the only thing that made Shilpa's case more different as she was used racist words ie Shilpa Pomadom. Fred is still harshly picked on.

In my dictionary and even on wiki ,a POPPADOM is food ...not a race or faith and STILL there were people called racist for saying this ...one of the sickest things ever on tv

It was painful to watch, and it was exactly like how Freddie says like sheep/wolves.

Freddie talking to Charlie, as charlie is saying he likes everyone! Freddie gives his oppinion..Lisa prowls over right at the time Charlie says he dont think Freddie is not liked. Freddie explains how Lisa don't like (as Kris also to him this) Karly prowling around waiting for her moment to jump in, then its two on one, and then in background who butts in? Kris.

Lisa was fiddling with her costume looking in mirrior etc during this argument, IMO thats showing us the she knows he is on to her.

Freddie has done nothing wrong, he is the subject very clever bulling because of his background. It is very wrong and I feel for him that nobody yet has stuck up for him.

Yet I think if Lisa and Marcus had a confrontation over something I bet he would bring up her treatment toFreddie then.

Too many nastys in bb and unfortunately they have control.

I want to complain too because it was horrible to watch.
How do I complain?

Accrding to Heatworld an investigation or whatever is going on about Sree insulting Freddie's dyslexia because people had complained.

I'm not gonna complain to Ofcom about this... It's not that I agree or support whats going on, you all know I don't, but Freddie is there by choice.

It is his decision whether to play this game or not, and he can stop playing it at anytime he chooses. He is capable of determining his own level of 'too much'... He dosent need us to protect him. He understands what is going on, so instead of walking he chooses to take it and rise to the challange.

Imo complaints will just serve to get the show even more neutered in the future.

I agree and tbh, he's handling it very well on his own and Marcus seems to have his back as well. He's very strong mentally I think so we should leave him to it!!

Unfortunately I don't see Marcus doing enough to support Freddie. Marcus should jump in when he sees that Karly and Kris have become involved. Athough I think Marcus was inseide the house when this was going on. The nasties do pick their moments, making sure that anybody who likes Freddie is not around. This is very tatical school yard bullying. But I reckon there is no need to complain to Ofcom unless Freddie becomes a broken man. The nasties can't cope with Freddies composure and dignigy and, in a way, you could call that reverse bullying but not in the 'in your face aggressive type.' Ofcom should stay out of it unless it really gets to the stage that Freddie wants to walk, but Freddie is a smart young man and will have realised that the public don't like Lisa etc. and I'm sure if it really got to a certain stage BB would step in. I didn't like the dyslexia comment from Sree but this just goes to show Srees ignorance.

I would have complained if Freddie was not coping with it, but he is. Like he said everything Lisa and Co say to him just goes over his head. If he was seriously suffering i would be the first to complain.

I am going to see how the next week pans out first.

On live feed last night he was joining in the the fun and frollics and was having a good time, bless him he deserves it.

The question of Sree allegedly calling Marcus a "white B*stard" in Hindi has still to be raised and answered properly.

This is racial abuse ? no?

I don't agree with the housemates picking on Freddie, but I don't see the point in complaining to OfCom as I would say arguing is part of the game and Freddie is a grown adult, if he cant deal with it then he should leave. I don't think the answer is for viewers to run to OfCom everytime something goes the way they dont like. As much as I dislike Sree, when Sree was the one getting picked on - although it wasn't half as bad, I didn't see many people on here making a fuss then. One of the main parts of Big Brother is the show isn't scripted, I don't think people should complain about petty arguments.

I see what everyone here is saying, BUT...

If the same thing was happening to a Freddie that wasn't white/British then everyone would be complaining to the station about racism. They wouldn't be expecting him to handle it himself because he signed up for the show. Know what I mean?

I do see and agree with you but at the end of the day, Freddie as an individual seems more than capable of handling it himself and I'd say, by the sounds of it he'd prefer to handle it himself, he said himself he's not a victim!

Much as i do not in any way agree with the way they`re treating Freddie i will mot complain as i feel that would just give them more ammo against the show. I think Freddie knows what they are trying to do and is a strong man and will not let it get to him.

nah I don't think they would....if he wasn't white/British and they were bullying him using the fact that he was Indian or whatever THEN people would be right to call it racist. If the bullying hms just called this non white/British guy an annoying prat then I don't think people would use the racist card. People on this forum are trying to make out Sree is hated due to his race but they pretty much get owned every time they try it.
