I think Rula hit the nail on the head when she said why most of the housemates won't challenge Pete. She said that he would so nasty if they did that it would cause a terrible atmosphere throughout the whole house.

I do agree that whether that 'pour me....' phrase is in common use or not, it was still a disgusting thing for George to say. I agree with Charlotte that Michael perhaps needed to answer that one for himself - which he did I think! However, what got me most about that whole thing was that George had previously interjected while Michael was talking, to defend Dennis, but he acted like Preston had no right whatsoever to do the same thing and defend Michael.

But, as I've posted elsewhere, the instigator of that whole argument was Pete. He stirred it all up, then pulled up a chair to watch and revel in what he had caused.
