Default An open letter to Channel 5, Initial and the producers of Big Brother UK.
As written by myself.

Quote:
To whom it may concern,

I am writing in regards to the situation between Brian Belo and Helen Wood as shown in tonight’s edition of Big Brother (24/06/2015).

The situation in tonight’s show was bullying. There is no desputing that. However, the fact that you have forced Brian out as a result and kept Helen in is disgusting. Brian was visibly shaking with emotion after some of Helen’s more tame comments, yet you let her continue, with her even going so far as to accuse him of looking like a “murderer and a rapist”. The fact that you have only let her get off with this with a formal warning is abominable. These are not small things to accuse another person of. It is wrong, and quite frankly, you should be ashamed of yourselves. A formal warning just doesn’t cut it. At the very least, she should have been ejected.

In a situation where you have already lost many Big Brother fans’ and viewers trust through many previous occasions, letting Helen Wood stay in the house is certainly not going to win it back. It is not alright to trivialise such incidents as well with photos such as the one below.



All tonight’s show has proven is that there is no low you will stoop to for “entertainment”. It shows that you have no respect for your audience at all, which is abominable. At the very least, you should take the time to read some of the viewers concerns and act upon them. Maybe then we’ll start to trust you again.

– Zak Murray

Spot on. They'd stop them from going in the pool but let her verbally assault him. Awful

Fully agree, but will not help at all I'm afraid. BB producers are for Helen all the way.

Agreed. You'll all be moaning when it goes back to the HM's sleeping all day.

I feel I should point out that the last time an open letter was written to the producers was when it was revealed last year that they'd be evicting somebody with the most nominations. Fans were in uproar at this massive and unforgivable change to the established format.
Not only did they obviously ignore the contents of the letter and Marlon was evicted, they then did it again the following Friday when the newbies evicted Danielle

My point is, as correct as you can make an open letter, it's falling on deaf ears.

Actually the fact that Helen is even in there again shows they couldn't give two ****s.

(plus, they've refused to comment on when they're leaving)
