She keeps going on about how "hard" Coleen hit her in the face. But it was plain to see that the ex-LW was gentle with the pie.

Julie is not to be trusted. Plays every angle she can.

This. No one 'loves' everyone! I agree, think she is being unfair about Coleen, the clip with the pie shows that Julie is simply exaggerating for sympathy and to turn people against Coleen!
I know she has her catchphrase, but I find it really annoying the way she keeps slipping it in. If Martin Kemp had one, there's no way he would go around saying it for the cameras!

She IS playing a game... Tonight she said she isnt going to tell them she saw everything and tell them what she thinks..... she doesnt mind telling them what they want to hear to keep them sweet though does she???

Thats cowardly and two faced.... and ensuring no one votes her out.

I love Julie. I don't care is she is 'playing a game' or whatever - she has been entertaining, she doesn't give a flying ******, she isn't being horrible to anyone, she is smart and observant, and she was Bet Lynch! Kill em all, Julie! lol

Whether she is playing any sort of game or not hasn't stopped her from being really entertaining and humerous,she hasn't really said anything really insulting or offensive about other housemates, she will listen and talk to all other housemates.
She may be a bit eccentric,she may seem cranky at times and but her main integrity remains intact as she just gets on with the businesss of being in the house.

She has done not a single nasty thing to anyone in there and she also doesn't really talk offensively about others even in the diary room.
She has my support and I am glad some on this thread and on others see her for the decent individual she is, even with all her faults and being a bit odd at times too.

At 70 she is still going strong and doing a great job in there, as her catchphrase says,(although it originally comes from a film I think).
Get it, Got it, Good.

I thought she was 70, I think she means well.

She's 100% playing a game but that doesn't mean she isn't making good TV (tonight's banana clip aside).

[Heaven = Winner]

As Julie herself would say...DON'T TALK SH*TE!!

She's as fake as a plastic piece of dog crap.

She is interesting though, so I hope she doesn't get evicted before the finals. Then she can get evicted asap imo.

Great post!

[ransom]

Sick of her "I'm your mum now" bollocks to the younger lads and lasses in there. Her views completely change depending on who she is talking to. Likes to come across as the loveable old bird but she's really put me off her.

[ConnieLingus]

Stupid old tart.

She can't act, and is as false as Danica's tits.

Piss off with your tired Lancashire rough patter, you pathetic old cow.

So what part of the world is your rough patter from then?

[joeysteele]

Her catchphrase she has used as her theme in there is catching on.
In shops and bars where I go, people,( who clearly must be fans of hers or are watching BB because of her), I have heard a good many times now saying, ''as Julie says, get it, got it, good''.

A group of people said it to a waiter taking their order one night last week, they all laughed too.
As for not being able to act,onhere that is what people who don't like her say she is doing all the time,if she is she is doing so brilliantly.
Also after on and off 25 years in Corrie with a vast range of different storylines, you don't get the awards she got if you don't act to near perfection the roles you are required to.

She was sheer brilliance in Corrie, I love watching series of old episodes that Bet Lynch dominated Corrie in for years with great storylines all played to perfection too.
As the first task when they went in the house showed too,Julie has still 'got it'.

Agreed! She's brilliant! I wouldn't watch the show if she wasn't in it.

I loved her as Bet she was great in the role. Shame they didn't bring her back even for just a few episodes when Betty died.

My heart sank when I tuned in to the first CBB episode to watch Julie Goodyear enter the House and, so far, she has lived down to all my expectations.

I admit to a bias against her, based on decades of doing my best to avoid her woefully caricatured performances as alter-ego Bet Lynch on Coronation Street, from which soap, (allegedly), she was eventually sacked for making increasingly prima donna style demands.

I find it hard to make any distinction between Julie Goodyear, the 'actress', and Bet Lynch, the fictional character, and this difficulty seems to be shared by the lady herself. Why else would she enter the House wearing a T-shirt emblazoned with a catchphrase which is not her own, but was written by a jobbing Granada scriptwiter?

Quite apart from her limited acting ability, as demonstrated recently in the pitiful charade enacted with the equally disappointing Cheryl Ferguson on the CBB opening night, she seems to have no saving graces.

She can't be blamed for the effects of her advancing years or the fact, as she herself admits, that she's never been an oil painting, and her dogged persistence in clinging on to what she clearly regards as Bets' trade marks, like her penchant for leopard prints and her over-processed hair, lend her an air of frantic desperation associated with an old hasbeen rather than of as a doyenne of TV soap opera.

There are some areas in which she could help herself, but in which she seems determined or unable to make a good impression. Her ungainly posture, (as alluded to above in the 'growler' comment), the affected and unsightly way she holds her cigarettes, her ceaseless 'chawing' of nicotine gum, which offends both ear and eye, and her constant, exaggerated face-pulling are ugly to behold and remind me of some of the worst traits of the late Jimmy Savile, from whom, I have become convinced, she was separated at birth.

The icing on the cake, (or polish on the turd), is her thoroughly unpleasant personality. Fake, fickle and foul-mouthed, but failing to be funny; mawkish and manipulative; crass, coarse and cruel; dishonest and duplicitous; there isn't a saving grace in what I've seen to date.

She took an instant dislike to Coleen Nolan, (never a favourite of mine in the past because of the 'Loose Women' connection, but I've warmed to her since Julie's made it plain shes out to get her), and seems determined to goad her growing gang of 'lads' into making her life in the House a misery.

As the saying goes, 'Every dog has it's day', and it's time someone took 'our' Julie to the Vets. Get it? Got it? Get her out!

[TomXe]

she's 70, imo have some respect

[Clootie Dumpling]

By all means - if its due. Age alone isn't an automatic entitlement.

Exactly attaining a certain age does not automatically grant you respect - that has to be earned - and great post Clootie!

[Clootie Dumpling]

Thanks, Lynne

[parmnion]

I agree about the Jimmy Saville rumour.
