Remembering Kerry

Who'd have thought that Biggins,with the few others in there who are more aggressive and volatile,that he would be the one thrown out first.
If we get to see the full reason he was evicted by BB and the full wording and it is as insinuated, then what an idiot he has been honestly. He has sat on bbbots loads of times criticising others for what they say and do in a series and now this. Being thrown out too, jeopardises his fee as well,e may not get any of it or certainly most of it. What a waste of time him ever going in. Wonderful Biggins,obviously not. (just seen Thrice shy predicted he may end up going out like this, so one person did). |

The reason employing him would be a bad move is because there would be a witch hunt against any company that did it. This is how censorship works in societies that can't use the power of the state for such things. Yet. An example of this is the witch hunt that followed after it was revealed that Mozilla Chief Executive Brendan Eich had donated to campaigns opposing same sex marriage.

Quand il pleut, il pleut

..well I'm really glad that he's said what he has and showed the full extent of his thoughts/prejudices/bigotries' etc..it's always good to know these things in people and with celebrities, so that we can decide whether we want to contribute to their incomes ..

an odd one, but I'm gonna wait and see what he was ejected for before I judge. he's a favourite of the production team so I don't think they would have wanted to chuck him out

That's the problem, without the knowing the truth we cannot comment, only judge from rumours.
Very frustrating. |

If I can also add, this episode confirms what I've always thought. If you are seen as a "goodie" on the outside, even worse if you are a national treasure as Biggins was, you should never go on CBB. Everyone eventually cracks on BB and if you are seen as a nice person initially the only way is down once you've said something wrong, and the merciless vengeful pack will descend on you and destroy you. On the other hand, if you go in as a "baddie", the slightest display of a better side will be lauded. It will be said you've been on a "journey", and you will be loved. I have every expectation, with the proviso they are clever enough to see this, that Bear and Marni will try and follow this path. Last edited by johne; 06-08-2016 at 10:53 AM.

Too glam to give a damn
|
I've been away and last night was my first highlight show I've watched since launch night. I can't comment that much on the bisexual comments, but from what I've read I think people have the right to be offended by what he said. idk why people think it's necessary to put his ignorance on the people who have been vocal about his derogatory comment.
I'm going to have to wait and see what I make of the situation of him being ejected. |

Thanks for pointing this out, Toy Soldier. I wouldn't accuse anyone directly of being a tw*t on a message board, I was just answering his/her question, but I apologise anyway for this reply, as I said, it's not what I would have said if that question hadn't been posed.

What I find intolerable is when certain people on here group together to take part in an offensive and insulting onslaught of abuse directed at another forum member, and even worse, to continue to do so even after they have been clearly told they are causing offence. You have stated the other side of the debate in a civil and informative way, which enables people to look at another side of the debate. |

The gay community will enjoy the gossip far more than they will dislike the comment. And they will shut him out in an instant if his face no longer fits. In my experience the rivalry between gay guys and their gay friends is far greater than the rivalry between gay guys and their straight friends....if he thinks the gay community will have his back he is mistaken. |

It's quite ironic that I spent the week before he made the comment being told I was terrible for saying I can't stand him,when everyone thought he was wonderful, and now I've got the same people telling me I'm terrible for seeing his perspective. |

My understanding is that Biggins was talking about gay people who pretend to be bi. He was pointing out that some gay people pretend to be bi in order more easily to gain acceptance. There is a weird desire to share oppression and to perceive opinions as crimes. Free Speech is even more important than freedom from Hate Speech. It's a tough idea for people to accept but the right to cause offence is vital to the concept of Free Speech. |

i don't like biggins. he's exactly what hot2go calls him = a silly old fart
having said that, if that transcript is true (and i'm not at all sure it can be) then he must have been drunk, is suffering from senility, or having some absolute mental crisis! his beliefs match those of an era long gone; 37 years ago i had a boss who thought that way and he was in his late 60's. biggins may hold those views, but to open his mouth and let them escape on tv? i find that really hard to believe. i hope it's not true - not for his sake, but for the sake of believing things have moved on so much farther than when i first worked in a london office with an old colonial bigot.

And I do believe that the gossip surrounding him will have a bigger impact on the gay scene then the impact of his out dated opinions. |

Oh dear:
Big Brother UK @bbuk · 46m46 minutes ago We can confirm that a transcript claiming to relate to Christopher Biggins' removal from the #CBB house is 100% fake |
