The way support-workers do so much hard work but are so severely unpaid. And if an erroneous, allegation is made against them, individual managers might be pretty understanding, sure, but HR itself will be more opposed against them in the favour of the liar. It’s a horrible sector to work in as far as fairness is concerned. HR ain’t got mandem’s back, whatsoever. They’re the sort of people who’ll enable fragrant narcissism at the expense of the good support-worker’s, and sack them over things as petty as accepting a cottage-pie off an obliging, offering resident. I’ve seen it happen enough times over the years on have zero trust in these enabling idiots. In-general it seems to be hard work, including rank abuse (potentially), and disgraceful pay. It’s a rotten, rotten sector for fairness.

So yh. Support-workers do some of the hardest graft you’ll ever see, yet they’re paid next to nothing.

As regards the BB house

I often wonder why they don’t provide the house with a table tennis set / pool table/ dart board and darts / badminton set or a general knowledge card game ..


Just something where they could compete against each other .

One of my most vivid , enjoyable memories is of the time one series used rolled up paper and frying pans to have a tennis tournament!!

I seem to recall Brian Dowling either playing or doing a funny commentary ..


They could also play a dance track every hour just to liven things up - they could even reward the best dancer each hour with a sweet treat ..


Maybe ...They should have an alarm go off every waking hour where BB or the viewers suggest a topic that HAS to be discussed by a minimum of 3 varying housemates.. to earn luxury food items for the house

Lacey Turner’s (Stacey, EastEnders) voice used to be a lot lower. What happened?

We’ve all goaded and baited people unnecessarily but there’s a line at-which that can become toxic on BB and that’s when it stops being pleasant viewing. BB7, for all the buckets of fruity (not in that way) quality it had, had flashes of that, and this current series, from the bits I’ve managed to catch up, seems to be a bit of a breeding ground for that but without the same quality of housemates or relational cohesion (I mean, I know it’s early days, still, but … still). Even compared to last year, they all seem a bit blergh, but you just know that some of them are going to find reason to kick it off with each-other. And I’m not sure that’s going to be entertaining based on what they’ve been able to lay down on-screen and establish of themselves this past week. I’m not so sure this series is gonna be a good one.

It will be spiced up after today’s split

Even yesterday’s ‘grassing’ people up has got some backs up .

I'm pondering whether @MTVN is still on the Isle of Man, or if he made it off. I know he was flying. If the strong winds got under his cape he could be in Norway now...

I never made it there! My plane got halfway across the Irish sea then returned to Bristol and there weren't any more flights this weekend. Maybe for the best as I was supposed to be visiting my Grandma who's currently confined to her room anyway with shingles. I was quite looking forward to being on the stormy island though

Sorry you never made it. Speak to Crimson Dynamo, he'll order good weather next time. I hear he has that power...

Any ideas why the Big Brother app isn’t being used by the series !!

It looks to be stuck in the last celebrity big brother series

That’s rough. Sorry you’ve been going through that.

Recently, my worst dreams have centred around grief. I don’t want to go into it too much but I feel the vividness when it’s something you’re very emotionally connected to, but when there’s something like that to point at and contextualise them, at-least then they’re not nightmarish-scary. Just sad.

Are you the sort of person who believes in dreams having meanings and stuff or would you just shrug it off most of the time? I know for me I believe that might be elements of truth in astrology but it’s not something I turn to, even out of casual interest, for anything. It’s not a source of potential interpretation for me, or how I analyse personality (mine and the personality of others). It’s all-the-way in the background, but I think there’s the slightest tinge of something in it.

Next ponder: David Platt and Bart Simpson have a certain synergy (although Bart was never as annoying as the spawn-of-Satan incarnate that David was for much of the mid.-to-late noughties). Once you see that link, you can’t un-see it.
