What George said is not against the law so why weren't the housemates allowed to sort it out between themselves. If they didn't like it, they can nominate him and let the public decide. I don't like this dumbed down, stupid policy. How is it a social experiment if people arent allowed to speak

Exactly! BB is dead if people have to watch what they say.

I still don't see the difference between Gani mimicking Jennys accent and what George did? but treated completely differently, also as has been said given Sam and George sorted it out surely a warning should have been issued only if it happened again?

Gani did it in the DR. George did it in front of everyone.

Not saying I agree with either, but Jenny still has no idea Gani did that.

I think that it does make George the bigger douchebag out of the two personally.

But I waited for someone else to say it, as I don't want to look like I'm just pulling George up all of the time.

He was put on the spot to say something about each HM which he did and only one took offence

I get that, and I don't support BB giving him a warning.

But I just find George tiring tbh.

What I do want to remember though, is who asked for George to insult that many Housemates? Because they're the real villain of the story.

I wouldn’t question Sam being offended, it wasn’t pleasant and he had the right to be upset.

But think because him and George had a convo about it and it wasn’t done with malicious intent, a warning wasn’t needed.

…also, Sam was initially very upset and tearful about the mocking, having gone through similar experiences in his life so BB really had to address that also…/duty of care etc…

Frankly I thought it was funny but I would imagine if Jenny went in there doing an Indian accent the outcome might be different?

George was asked to name one bad thing everyone had something bad said about them not just Sam

Not saying I agree with either, but Jenny still has no idea Gani did that. And it clearly upset Sam. But again, I don’t believe George did it maliciously, and a warning wasn’t needed as they discussed it with each other. Had he said it in a malicious way then a warning would have been warranted.

Maybe BB is a parody of the government with their authoratarian slant

If George had not apologised I could see the reason for the warning but he seemed genuine in his remorse

…I find this guy Yazzfetto really interesting because he generally has a balanced take on all things BB…and it’s interesting what he’s saying here because I’m feeling very similar atm…I mean, I like George as a housemate, I think that he’s going to be a pivotal character…but that’s the thing, though…I’m feeling more and more that he is a character and he’s only George on the surface and he’s feeling for me, very contrived and devised and composed and all that jazz…and that would be ironic really because so much criticism is always laid at those housemates that are ‘social media’, so not your general/regular person as such and more on a career boost or whatever in BB…and then along comes George and isn’t he refreshing …but as Yazzfetto says, what if he’s not at all and just playing into a character…

…anyway, that will give many talking points I’m sure…



…I don’t know with the warning, was it deserved…?…well, BB can’t just ignore either because of the outcries over that…screams if they do/screams if they do don’t type thing…but these things aren’t always one size fits all and therefore one warning fits all, either…and I think that for this, the best way was to talk about it themselves, which they did and already had …so maybe to have asked them both to come in together to refer to it with also adding that resolving together as they had was the better way but that BB had obviously noted it all…anyway, probably not explaining well but BB shouldn’t remain static in things like warnings and that one size fits all forevermore thing…/…it should all fit to whatever it refers to at the time…
