I'm all for hms creating drama but not at the expense of someone's character and reputation. I personally think BB dropped a bollock by giving it credence and formal warnings and have redressed the balance by allowing them to hear the crowd. Roxanne has spent 24+ tarnishing Ryan's reputation amongst hms (and for all she knew the public and future employers etc) by massively exaggerating the incident, she told the "lads" who seriously could have reacted aggressively towards the supposed perpetrator etc etc. Ryan or any other hm do NOT sign up to be judged on other HMs behaviour, only their own
