[HBB1508]

I read this thread yesterday and couldn't comment as I hadn't seen the live feed - I watched it last night and am really not sure what all the furore is about really. Yes James had words but he is allowed to air how he feels as much as any of them to another HM - the way he talks to Gary could be taken as condescending but I think he is talking to him as if he thinks that Gary lip reads - that's my opinion and I could be wrong but it's how it comes across to me. I would agree with James that Gary thinks that as he is a big star people should stop talking and engage him.

Claire and Dee both spoke to him when he went into the garden so I don't see him being blanked there at all.

It was only in the kitchen that he appeared to be socially awkward following people around and just hanging out and that is probably down to him not being able to hear when there are so many voices in the room.

I admire Gary for his acting and I think he's a great housemate but I'm not looking through rose tinted glasses.
