Bang out of order. You might have a difference of opinion but that was uncalled for. I'm no fan of Deana's either, by any stretch but Jords has never been offensive to anyone like you just have. Wind your neck in a bit eh?

That's just your view/opinion on Deana and thank god that not many people share it!
It's like listening to a stuck record

Like a good old classic from the 60,s his record is always good to listen to. When the day comes that our views of Deana are accepted as OUR OPINIONS AND VIEWS that will be the day the posts will be looked upon as opinionated and not nasty. Just because you love her and cant hear bad about her dosent necessarily mean you are right and we are wrong.

They were laughing at Indian people eating with their hands... sort of is offensive/ignorant even though I dont believe they meant it specifically that way.

Jords their actions and inferances where ignorant due to a lack of understanding of that races culture but defo not rascist in any way. If as someone else has said they said it all with Putt Putt accents to mimic Asians then that brings the inferance up to a different level but as far as I can see nobody has proof of this action, it all seems to hinge around conspiracy theories.

i still hold with they where ignorant and needed a good slap but to lable them rascist is a bit strong, infact it borders on stupidity. Did you see the shows producer there tonight on bots, the thick prick didnt even know what colours the teams were blues or green and he agreed that noms were different because of face to face and it was unfair. he f..king authorised it the dumb prick. Man he makes my bum itch.

Totally agree with the comments in here. Channel 5 and the people using the "bully" word at any opportunity and the ofcom callers are totally ruining BB. It has now got beyond a joke. It is going to get to the stage where we are just going to be watching a roomful of people staring into space scared to say or do anything for fear of being called a racist or bully. I think the producers are digging themselves a big hole by doing this... I really don't see how the show can continue for much longer because all entertainment value is being sucked out of it.
I have been an avid fan of BB from the first series and have not missed one since. I love the show but this series has been ruined for me. I am genuinely struggling to persevere with it. All the fun and entertainment has been sucked out of it week by week after such a promising start.
It's so upsetting to see a show that I loved being reduced to this contrived mess.

The bully word is over used. Bascially it's used by people who are not intelligent enough to win a legitimate argument. They lose and suddenly the 'victor' is a bully. Annoys the sh*t out of me.

I lived and worked in Dubai for 3 years and it is 80% Asian. When we went out at night to go for an indian to the real downtown Asian quarter, my wife took her own fork, why BECAUSE THEY DIDNT GIVE YOU ONE WITH YOUR MEAL. Their culture is like that and they try to uphold it and are proud of it as well. An asian friend of mine said they only use one hand because its one to eat and one to wipe with.

These idiots in the office are letting this series get away from them and actually are embarrassingly handing Deana this series on a plate by allowing her to be percieved as the victim, it isnt Deana thats doing it anymore, its them. Dozy tw.ts.

I agree in part,but lets never forget the times a day Deana tells us she a victim ,how many times has she said Conor doesnt like her or speak to her, yet SHE nominates him every week and doesnt speak to him either, the fake cow is playing a blinder ,shes got this in the bag on PITY not merit ,makes me sick to think people are so gulible to fall for her weel planned rubbish

Eating with one's hands is an activity that lot's of cultures indulge in
Some ignorant people think it's filthy and primitive and whisper such behind the backs of these cultures in condescending tones. That's because they wipe with either hand indiscriminately and never wash them before shoving their fried mars bar, fish and chips chicken burger, pasty or pizza's in the gobs.

What about when people eat sushi with a fork? Should we laugh at them for not using chop sticks? Eat how you want people!

It's like the whole Sree BB10 Thing again

'Let's give Marcus a formal warning for mocking Sree's accent - but it's perfectly fine for Sree to mock every other housemate's accent.'

Big Brother have been doing it since that ******ing bint Jade ruined the show in 2007, all they do now is find little things to pick up on and make a big issue out of and all it does is making the producers look racist, for even making a difference.

Jade didnt ruin that series Shilpa and Jackson did, Jackson said the only racist thing in that series NOT Jade

This I agree with!

Taking responsibility for your actions is an adult activity

simple denial: deny the reality of the unpleasant fact altogether
minimisation: admit the fact but deny its seriousness (a combination of denial and rationalization)
projection: admit both the fact and seriousness but deny responsibility by blaming somebody or something else.

and this!

I have to ask, if they were not being racist, what was the warning issued for?

And agree again! (Chuff, it was the attack on another forum member I didn't agree with, no need to get personal with posters on here).

2 reasons I believe

1) Possible chance of offending Indian viewers by being stereotypical
2) Verbally singling out Deana - the comments were made to be insulting

I thought Ashleigh's comment 'Wanid to giv her a ****ing spoon' to be very ignorant.

I thought Ashleigh's comment 'Wanid to giv her a ****ing spoon' to be very ignorant.

But does Ashleigh actually grasp British culture, let alone anyone else's? Personally I don't think for a moment she does.

Example: I used to work with adults with learning disabilities, each week we used to take a group for sewing classes at an elderly centre. The 'golden oldies' used to segregate themselves from the one's with LD's, even making them line up after they had queued for food! One day, an elderly lady approached us, it wasn't that she was being against anyone with disabilities, she just didn't understand through lack of education, blame a generation or whatever. The elderly lady became good friends with the people I looked after and genuinely cared for each and every one, and involved her friends. It was just something she'd not known about when she grew up.

Ashleigh isn't far off the mark either from my example. Should her parent's have educated her more with regard to social skills, oh yes! I grew up in a tiny mining village, where 99.9% were white folks. My children were taught to respect life, not the colour of skin. IMO, it's all about education in socialisation, first and foremost. But it cuts both ways.
