[the truth]

theyd be crucifed and warned and possibly ejected and rightly so

why is it ok to invade the space of a man simply in the kitchen making breakfast ? to grab him and touch him when he made it perfectly clear in a polite concise way he didnt want to be touched|? yet it went on and on and no one cared and BB ignored it and the bit on the side thought it was all just a bit of fun

it was group bullying it was intrusive it was calculated and premeditated as that idiot said earlier in the day in the diary room, that they would now target james

its 100% double standards as always, no means no, in a workplace situation hed have been perfectly entitled to put in a claim of abuse

BB sort out the sexist abusive bullying

[Clootie Dumpling]

Well said - I agree completely.

BB must do something about bullying by this group.

[lewis111]

If they done it to Saira it would have been ignored cause they can't have their precious reality stars looking bad
But if like James and Ricky etc done it to Marnie yea something probably would have been done about it

[Clootie Dumpling]

Typical BB dodgy double standards!

reallly is infuriating and spineless rylan clarke treats it all as a joke,.....if it happened to a woman hed be on his high horse...its wrong regardless of gender or sexuality...period

I doubt it.

They all blamed Hazel for everything three years ago. Just bell ends on that show.

BB doesn't seem to care what they do anymore. They want more and more outrageous behaviour so they aren't going to give out warnings.
Cbb in particular is getting more tasteless, crude and unsavoury with every series. They can only manage a few half decent celebs now and they have to scrape the bottom of the barrel to make up the numbers - and look at the scum they found at the bottom of that barrel...

100% agreed. Those 3 should of gotten a warning long time ago. Imagine if james went nuts. That would of been big brother fault

[hot2go]

Imagine if BB antagonised one of the housemates like that ..... Oh wait, they did, to Jason, and that was OK according to a lot of people.
I didn't agree with what Marnie did to Saira but it wasn't just because I liked her, because I don't like her... I disagreed because it was wrong. I think some people only have issues with bad behaviour if it's being perpetrated against a housemate they like.

[Ammi]

..I'm not sure how it could be sexism when BB seem to have ignored what have been two 'bullying' acts in the house and one toward a female and one toward a male, so it's been equally dismissed for both..?...it wasn't just an invasion of personal space with James...they were actually putting their hands on him when he repeatedly asked them not to and he's so obviously been targeted as the 'bald eagle' as they refer to him...

[Ellen]

I agree, Lewis had already said they were giving Saira time off and would now target James and the fact they did not stop when asked too.

[Absorption]

Yep, I agree with most of these posts.

The self-named 'squad', ironically, is made up of people whose combined careers amount to less than a fraction of those they're targetting (and even they're not exactly full-blown stars in the traditional sense).

[jaxie]

I agree that the younger group have overstepped several times in this way and they absolutely should not be touching someone when asked not to. Marnie exposing herself in Saira's face was also an invasion of personal space.

However, I can't help feel that to a degree some of the older house members have thrown down the gauntlet with their aggression and lack of tolerance, particularly James and Saira. And the children have picked it up in a very childish way. I don't think the intention is as intrusive as it is becoming I think it's defensive. But in this case the reason why the smoke is getting silly and sinister is because someone lit the fire.

I think this has the potential to become a very divided Lord of the flies type house. While that might be good telly it can get very much out of hand and it's up to BB to nip it in the bud.

It seems to me these days that BB don't really care about this stuff at all they will let whomever get away with whatever as long as it gets them publicity. And you are right they have ignored all the stuff thats happened so far no matter who its been against because they want controversy

(Hey Ammi hope you are having a good week )

[rusticgal]

The sad thing is the mindset of these people....acting like 5 year olds. At the end of the day they have been shown up for who they are. James handled himself well but I think they will target him again.

[mr rochester]

Pack mentality is never easy to watch. They behaved like Bozos. Hideous. Shocked BB did nothing about it...This gives out the message that it's OK and it's not. UnBearable looked such a twit when James poured the coffee on him...

[Beso]

It's the same in real life really.

I saw a man in Edinburgh dressed in a kilt walking along the street when he was approached by a woman who lifted his kilt up.

When the bloke went off at her and her and her 3 pals, she just told him to calm down she was only joking, then her and her friends just walked down the road laughing.

Jeez that's shocking, who on Earth would think it's ok to do that to a stranger (or anyone but especially a complete stranger)

I have seen this happen a few times..everyone always seems to think its hilarious. Have been tempted on more than one occasion to keg the girl (its always a girl...) involved, including knickers, infront of everyone to show how it feels. No doubt I would get done for that though.

Marnie, Bear, Biggins, Heavy, Lewis and Renee should all receive warnings for their actions. It's ridiculous that BB have let it slide.

They seem to be very lenient about warnings, but it's Bear they should watch out for. He doesn't care much for rules
