Its little wonder this woman is on suicide watch

I have just noticed that you wrote this in your post. I hadn't noticed that or realised that anything had been said about this issue.

When BB started, all those years ago, contestants were assessed for their psychological fitness to appear in the show. Has that changed? Psychologists were also employed by BB during the making of the programme. Has that changed? If it hasn't changed, then presumably they must feel that she is coping or they would pull her out of the show.

I'm not a psychologist, but she appears to be coping OK for now, and if she was sharing these thoughts before she went into the house, then it's maybe been a good thing for her to enter the house and make new friends, have a laugh at times, get off benefits and have the opportunities which the show will present. Yeah, a lot of people have hated her behaviour on the show, but in a way, that will give her far more opportunities than the more bland characters like Sam and Ollie - who'll want to listen what they say about it all? I don't, and Ollie is my favourite. Samantha Brick, Liz Jones, Katie Hopkins and others like them have done very well by stepping into areas of controversy. If Linda plays her cards right, she'll do alright.

Her own sister opened that door but it wouldn't surprise me given the Nolans back story to believe it was a victim card play because she cant win based on her merits and as for going in and making friends...all she has done is bitch at \jim from the get go. Hardly a trait that will earn her friends.

I still think Jim's gone ball deep on that once.

She's a strange one - I don't know what to think about her. It's best that she is out

Maybe.. But Linda is making friends in the house: she's as thick as thieves with Luisa; Jasmine nominated her because she's Casey's friend; Sam really likes her; someone (Ollie?) nominated Jim because of the atmosphere between Linda and Jim, so that person must see Linda as an ally or easier to live with. That said, if Dappy, for instance, has been upset by the way she acted after he asked everyone to be quiet in the bedroom, she might be up for eviction next week. Dappy just wants everyone to get on (dream on, Dappers )

Totally agree, some people actually need to go on the dole, it must be a very hard thing to come from a successful girl band then to have to swallow your pride and go to the job centre.

Financial hardship isn't really something we should mock a housemate for, I just don't get the British public they love to watch people fall, it actually entertains them to see someone struggling.

Jim hardly has a glowing credit score he was a tax dodger and filed for bankruptcy not to many years ago. I dont gloat about that or spew hate it just is what it is and has no effect on my views of him as a person. Money has nothing to do with anything.

In regards to the first post "No wonder shes on suicide watch!????

WTH!?!?!

Its little wonder this woman is on suicide watch, she really is a piece of work. Please do the right thing, take her out and send her back to the dole queue, she isn't a celebrity, she is part of a dynasty that she had very little to do with and is linked by name only. Even her own family have disowned her and BB should be ashamed of putting her in there as she is clearly out of her depth and is resorting to lies and character assassination to get some airtime.

Big brother should have stepped in weeks ago. she has lied and slandered his name throughout and faced no repercussion. how jim has taken it Ill never know. He should take legal action when he gets out against the show and her.

ugh I missed all the action

[smeagol]

i cant believe she is still in there and funny lional is gone maybe they didn't like his brother tony but its odd

You say you don't like slagging people off then you go and slag Jim off. Please stay away from my posts if they upset you so much, please just put them on ignore as your comments are pretty transparently aimed at demeaning my comments. There are other posts you can play in and please don't say you can play where you want to because we all know what you are after. Nobody is undermining the dole but paupers that play queens deserve to be ridiculed. She has designer clothes, talks a big game and we are supporting that lifestyle after she has pissed all her hard earned up against the wall. She hardly lives in a council flat eating beans, does she.
