My stomach was in knots watching the vids on the Channel 5 site, and I don't want to be told to just stop watching. I've been watching BB from Day one and if I or anyone else don't agree with something, it's not fair to say too bad. After all, we have spent money over the years on the show and if we don't agree with something we have a right to say so, and not be told to it's easy to press buttons. It's not on.

What did I make worse? that post you quoted was a reply to another mod, we were having a bit of a laugh along with another forum member, but silly me forgetting what serious business the internet is eh.

As for the quote from the original post, since this is a forum and on forums we discuss things, regardless of what the OP posted, people will do and have a right to post an opinion whether they are in agreement with the original post or not.

Considering Charlie & Sophie had to follow orders from Gina like the rest of the HM I cant see how you can call them sheep. It wasn't bullying, its a task, some people in this world want to be offended.

[user104658]

Saying "it's just a task" is a cop-out. It's like looking at someone being singled out specifically, sneered at and laughed at, by a boss in any workplace and trying to say "Nothing wrong with it, it's your job and they're your boss so suck it up".

It's not Gina though. The producers are using her, she's a bit dim and doesn't really realise. The producers have been singling Hazel out with all sorts of tasks, for weeks. Morning gunge, eating weird things, who is the snake, popularity line-up, and now this? They try to get away with it by saying "it's all down to the public!" but when they set these things up they know EXACTLY how they're going to pan out. It really is sick. It's a heartless, once-rich, now-floundering company essentially torturing a girl to improve their ratings. The more the public bays for her blood, the better for them. They're like a Roman emperor in their box seat it the Colosseum, sending out the lions to rip someone to shreds for the entertainment of the crowd.

^Sound observation.
Thats exactly why I made this thread: It's NOT about being "anti-Gina" (though goodness knows, I find her utterly repellent).
Its a message to the producers to let them know that we see whats going on and that their bullying in the name of "entertainment" won't allowed to continue with impunity!

It's quite funny how you asked anyone who saw it as bullying to sign up and leave a message,and yet you got a load of people disagreeing that it was bullying! Debate is good,but I don't think you meant it as a discussion thread!?! Many years ago,if someone asked you to sign a petition to free Nelson Mandela,would you sign it and then write down your argument as to why he should be kept in prison!?!

^Not sure whether its ur deficiency in Maths or ur poor English comprehension that's giving you problems here but most posters on this thread have said that what we saw tonight WAS bullying.
As for bringing up Nelson Mandela... LOL! Pathetic! Try again!

Well put !
Wouldn't at all be suprised...

Also makes me wonder whether they're doing it deliberately to create a backlash, which makes the vote closer which ker-chinggg, is good for them.

Are we the paying voting public being taken for fools too ?

At the end of the day, few bother to vote for a shoe-in.
Surely they MUST know that ?...

They definitely catalyzed the dexter and callum situation to get more people to vote, since both were up and people were taking sides. I don't really understand what they're doing this week at all as Gina isn't even up! There's no vote to polarize for cash, unless they expect the votes to jump to Charlie instead.

Whilst it seems unlikely for them to predict that Charlie would be picked as head guard (and a backlash would ensue) I wouldn't rule it out.

For me it begs the question...
If you were running the show and wanted to boost voting profits, what would you go with ?

[mazzz]

I think giving power to Gina was an orchestrated attempt by BB to set up Hazel to be targeted. I did not enjoy tonight's episode one bit. I am actually disgusted with BB producers. Three girls and Dexter ganging up on Hazel who has in my eyes just being herself, standing up to queen Gina and totally duped by Gina and Charlie who were enemies one minute and friends the next!

^Yes it is. Its a "reality" TV show. And the reality here is that someone is being bullied.
Does the fact that we're seeing it on TV make it less real to you?

No, just confirms to me you don't know what the word 'bullying' means.

^At what point, according toyour definition, does it become bullying then?
When Gina and her minions are jumping on Hazel's bloodied corpse??

Tonight was DEFINITELY bullying!

[Northern Monkey]

They've used electric shock pads before multiple times.Hazel knew this when she signed up i would assume.She must have signed a contract.No wonder the show is getting dumbed down with silly complaints like this.

[M X]

This is ridiculous. And I'm not just saying this as a Gina fan.

They know what they are signing up for when they go in Big Brother, and the 'shock' suits have been used for years.

Gina wasn't bullying Hazel. I think everyones forgetting that Gina was excluded by the entire house for the first 3 weeks? Where was everybody calling the other housemates bullies then?

I don't mean I found it 'annoying' or 'unfair'. I mean I actually found upsetting.

Although the bullying is CHANNELED through Gina, it's still the producers who are orchestrating it.

Please sign this thread or leave your comment if you were angered or upset by the events that were broadcast tonight.

l agree gina has shown what a jealous bitch she is leave hazel alone WHY IS GINAS B/F ON SINGING ?????

[MrWong]

Yet more hysterical nonsense from the OP.

[YodaBB]

Lol. So not having three course meals is now physical abuse & Big Brother physically abuses housemates each series with shocks & nasty eating tasks?

[MrMinaj]

Why was Gina made queen bee
