Haha. It was very borderline for me.. if they kicked her out for her behaviour, it would have seemed like a justified punishment for me. A warning doesn't seem severe enough, but I agree there are worse things she could have said yeh

She should have been removed for deliberately antagonising Brian and admitting she was doing so when he visibly shaking and on the brink of tears, sat in absolute silence as Helen continued to smirk and get enjoyment out of his weakness. That is bullying, it was uncomfortable and it was disgusting. Far worse than the comments she made afterwards.

perhaps brian should act like a man and laugh off a little banter instead of erupting like a manchild?

First of all I'm going to need you to define a 'man'

And then secondly I'm going to have to point out that deliberately antagonising someone when they aren't retaliating and are on the brink of tears is not 'banter' it is calculated bullying.

But of course you know this and are just trolling, usually it's funny but there is a line and you need to know when not to cross it

yup

[joeysteele]

No way, not at all.
The warning was warranted and right but not an ejection issue.

calling someone a troll because they do not share your view is probably on page one of the "things not to do on forums if you wish to retain any semblance of integrity" (volume 2, Collins, 1996)

On page 2 their is a bit about tv programmes and hysteria

I see there's no definition of a 'man' provided, funny that

I think removing her from the house would have been too far, the formal warning was enough, but if anything like that was to happen again she should be removed immediately.

[JTM45]

She just shouldn't have been put in there in the first place. She doesn't fit the criteria!

[mizzy25]

yes, people have been removed for far less

Off topic Mizzy,hows Tinsel Tibb? I take it you don't like Helen then?

Oh and one other thing, it isn't a 'view' it's a fact

Just how it's a fact that Jade was a bully to Shilpa and not the other way round

Shilpa had it coming

How dare you speak ill of the dead

So someone had being the victim of bullying 'coming to them'? Good to know you support bullying as well now

[EspeonBB]

Well people have been removed for far less offensive things

And it's not as if she's a one time offender. She has repeatedly bullied people over 2 seasons, and even drove someone to want to leave. Ofc production loves her so she could literally assault someone in that house and she'd probably still only get a warning

[ruiphillips]

yes. ugly witch

[HBB1508]

Yes anything to get her off my screen!
