I saw the end of it there and there were doing everything they possibly could to make Shilpa look bad, and responsible for what had happened in the house.

Dermot was coming out with some really leading questions and the clips were all designed to make Shilpa look bad.

Unbelievable how biased that was.

I thought the same Mike, but I've always found the psychologist input on BB to be manipulated to affect the public opinion about different housemates. They've been doing it for years and people generally accept it more cos it's coming from someone who purports to be an expert in this area. I usually take the psychologist stuff with a pinch of salt, cos there's nearly always a hidden agenda behind what they're saying.

Because so many people are feeling sorry for Shilpa, I think last night's Big Brain was designed to show that can Shilpa can look after hersef. While she may have scored low on the manipulation tests, they kept emphasising what a strong and intelligent woman Shilpa is and how she could argue rings around Jade or Danielle if they were on their own which is why the gang up. They were trying to show that people shouldn't be feeling so sorry for her.

I think it was an exercise in damage control by Channel 4, considering all the complaints they've got about "poor Shilpa".
