I might like or dislike housemates, and I do have a family member that has a mental disabilty,..but to make out that I can't have an opinion on this is a bit harsh I think...my post was deleted..although other personal posts are allowed it seems..I meant no offence at all....Mental health issues are no laughing matter.

This is not about mental health but about your ability to communicate. Last night on Live Feed it was clear Sam hadn't heard a conversation that one of the twins thought that he clearly had. He also didn't hear the crowd's reaction last week when he was up for eviction.

This is a tough show. Game playing has now reached new heights. That means that it is very hard for people even with good hearing to take part. I'm afraid it's a simple fact of life on a reality game show and one the producers should have realised.
