What he did was simply disgusting but in all honesty they are going to let it blow over sadly and hope the public will forget it.

I think BB producers believe Deana will go on Friday so whats the point of getting rid of him. Plus they might think it might give good press even though its bad if they keep him in there meaning when he's up for Eviction people will phone in record numbers.

Sadly money and ratings are the reason he's never going to be let go.

Nothing will happen to him and it shows that in the world today a large television company embraces violence to women. Quite sickening in fact and also quite scary.

The Fact Emma on BOTS was laughing and joking about it shows where they stand on it.

[vortex]

Sadly nothing will happen and that episode was painful to watch, I had to skip most of it.

[JTM45]

I'm inclined to think that nothing will be done (sadly!) but having had a look around all of the official BB sites (Facebook, official C5 BB site etc.etc.) earlier tonight there really does seem to be quite a major backlash going on which almost gives me hope that the BB team will feel that they have to act on this or risk losing control (and viewers).

I'm quietly optimistic but having seen the disregard Channel 5 have shown towards the opinions and feelings of the BB fans and viewers last year and again already this year my pessimism is feeling heavier sadly.

If anything is going to happen it will happen today i would imagine.........but i'm not holding my breath.

[joeysteele]

No, they cannot do anything other than punish him the way they see fit to, really the only person who can demand any action from him is Deana and according to BBBOTS, she has been told the incident, he didn't say it to her face and she is okay as to it.

The public moaning so much is likely one of smaller reasons Channel 4 dumped the series, the public cannot say they want a series where we see them as they really are and then demand the public take over if a housemate some of them don't like does something unacceptable to a housemate they do.

I hardly think for one second that Emma would condone any violent threats to women,we will just have to wait and see if the housemates nominate Conor next week and then those who want him out can set out to save whoever he may be up against.

That is the extent of the public power to this show, that we vote who stays in and who doesn't from the housemates nominations,if they start giving in to the publics demands then the show that is BB is really long gone then.

Despite the public outcry Jade and her gang were not evicted either until the public got the chance to vote them out. That is how it should be,for me anyway.

I agree, i think they will be hoping it blow over and the best they will do is make Conor say sorry to Deana. I'm hoping this has ended any chance of conor winning BB13 and hopefully has made Deana into a contender.

[Callum]

He should be removed, no question about it. People have been removed in previous seasons for much less worse than this.

Emma wants to keep her job.Emma will do as she's told. I think anyone male or female said what Conor said should be thrown out of the house. You know he won't be put up for Eviction Joey and its laughable to even say it. The house is full of nasty characters who have bullied Deana. The easy way of getting rid of the complaints is getting rid of conor simple as.He wouldn't be a massive loss to the show.

[thesheriff443]

nothing more will be done
he has sealed his own fate in bigbrother
the problem is he did not say it to her face and deana has been asked about it and she has not made a complaint about it

[mizzy25]

connor was absoltly disgusting and shud have been removed immediatly

I really couldn't believe how lightly they took it on BOTS - pathetic is all I can say - what a sorry state the world is in if we all condone this sort of action.

[fruit_cake]

It's not the first time he threatened physical violence either, he did the same to Ben after the curry powder scandal.

seems to me that he should have been severely warned then, and this time he should have been thrown out.

[Livia]

When the Shilpa/Jade event happened (and I am in no way drawing a comparison to the nature of the incident, what happaned last night I don't believe for one minute was a racially motivated) the viewing figures for CBB went up significantly as people tuned in to see the fall-out. There's no way that BB will remove Connor because I think they're hoping this incident will have the same effect.

[BBDodge]

They will be hoping he receives his comeuppance from the voters.

But they have to get him up for a vote first. ASAP.

[smeagol]

they are making a big gamble if they think deana will go. if she stays its only a matter of time before the thug conor and co use race hatred its just who they are . animals.
its a risky game bb are playing keeping him in.

Absolutely agree, because who's to say with the way Deana has been treated, people will feel sorry for her & keep her in, I honestly believe Conor should have been removed for the way spoke about Deana.

making perfect sense again Joey 100% agree

[Petershaw1984]

He will get away with it

[Fish_Fingers]

They should show the footage to the whole house. If Deana knows about it, then this seems reasonable to me. Then let nature take its course.

this sounds like a good idea, 'name and shame' them in front of the whole house maybe they will realise how vile they were.

I appreciate Jamie East more because he said he was disgusted and he did not waver from that point of view.
What kind of message does it send out to young viwers? The BB staff probably thought it was hilarious. They concentrate on sexual exploits every time. This should have been firmly dealt with and not shown as a 'highlight'. They did not show Jay's venture into the freezer.

People on the outside are not going to overlook his ugly rant.

Yes... To be honest, it's made me question myself as to why the hell I'd want to be watching this.
