It’s not her fault that she’s a delicate soul..
I bet most people would struggle like she has under the pressure that Paul has been applying to her for quite some time

well that's fair until the 'head wobble' bit, but Noky only ever seems to display negative emotions. I'm not saying she has to join the 'I'm here for a laugh Paul Olivia gang' but she could lighten up a bit, it wouldn't do her any harm seems to me

…so far as Noky choosing Trish for the task as opposed to Olivia, for instance…?…I’m not sure how long she would have had to choose a ‘possessed’…(..I would think…)…that she would also think of who she felt would be best for a task partner …but also, whatever reason…she was choosing for a task, she didn’t know what the task was…she didn’t know anything that it would lead to in terms of any hostility …she just chose the person she felt would do the task well with her so that they passed, surely….
All of this. You put it way better than I did lol.

Really, I think the complete opposite. Loves dancing around at any parties, is very playful (see how she was with Zak, in the cork throwing etc), gets really into every task, has a very infectious laugh etc.

I think she's one of the liveliest personalities in there

yes you're not wrong just goes to show how we all focus in on different aspects of a housemate.

She did try to make the most of Yinrun's party but the jealous Paul ruined it for her and his behaviour was appalling. That said she has spent an enormous amount of her time sobbing or avoiding conflicts she was if not the instigator of, certaininly one of the main protagonists

Yeah agreed but it only takes the slightest thing to unsettle her due to her delicate state of mind in there .. thankfully Trish is there .
She’s the only one switched on enough to see when Noky is upset or struggling with something

The producers should be investigated when the series is over

They have not given the weaker ones any protection at all and targeted Trish because she’s made of strong stuff

Disgraceful

Fair enough, personally I don't think she's been at fault for any of the conflicts starting and the last week she's had would test anyone. I think she's actually shown a lot of strength to endure it and carry on

Bullying? no I don't think so. Bullying is a word that is way over used and to call that bullying detracts from real situations where people find themselves in desperate situations
Spot on!

Calling Paul a bully is most the 2023 thing ever.

I think the viewers of Big Brother are desperate to have a villain and it's landed on Paul this time round. It was Kerry before him, and funnily enough people have warmed to her since her interview.

By the way, i'm not Pauls biggest fan but to call him a bully is wild.

And you're right, it diminishes and detracts from real situations were people have been bullied.

People need to remember they're stuck in a house with not much to do - tensions are going to run high and they are going to blow up over little things.

It's also pissed me off people calling him racist/transphobic/homophobic on social media with literally ZERO evidence. It's scary how witch hunts happen these days.

…I don’t think that Noky is a delicate soul, though…as she said, she’s someone who doesn’t involve herself in group situations ….she’s very much her own girl and that’s the way she prefers it…there would be strength in a group, that’s a large part of groups forming in a context such as the BB house…but she chooses not to be a part of that strength…that would make her a very strong person in many ways and she’s certainly very accomplished in her out of the house life…but she’s not someone that thrives well in confrontational/hostile situations etc …those situations are not part of her skill set or comfort zone if you like…but I would say that she’s shown great strengths…

…..if anyone who is interested to know more of Paul’s back story, as it were…his fighting career and what it means to him and his mental health…I found this vid, I haven’t watched it all myself because it’s a long watch, I’ve just watched some small parts…anyway, for his fans…or non fans…

Paul's own friends Jenkin & Chanelle could see he was being a pr1ck .

Chanelle said something like " if I wasn't invited I wouldn't be that upset"

Jenkin told Paul to stop being a tw@t


Paul took it further than the other un invited hms , he threw objects ,he said he specifically wanted to p1ss off "Noky & Trish " , he wanted the drama. He provoked it . And when Noky didn't react ...he started bullying her by saying " what you looking at" . He tried to intimidate her and she answered him back.

Noky didn't expect Trish to fight ' her battles ' , she was just upset and Trish noticed this .

Paul can't handle Trish so he goes back upstairs like the pathetic creep that he is . He started the whole thing ,then he gets upset when people defend themselves and stands up to him....he needs his head testing .

He even tried throwing away their cocktails. He's like a sad little baby who didn't get his bottle .

It's also commonly disregarded way too often when people have tunnel vision on what bullying is. It can be subtle and insidious, it's not always the high school "give me your money" stereotype.

Yes !

Even a sly look off someone can be intimidating when you are aware of their danger / capabilities

People willing to jump through hoops to explain Paul's behaviour.

But Trish & Noky are criticised for any move they make. Interesting.

Yeah Suddenly we should worry for Paul & Jenkin's mental health. I guess Noky & Trish are made of stone ? .
