That's funny. If it had been a women/one of the unpopular gang bitching I think everyone would be up in arms about it, but suddenly when it's a favourite it's just 'honesty' and 'saying what we all think' maybe, but it's still bitching.

Anyway, I don't particularly like Dirk. He's a bit of a grumpy mare and seems a bit like a desperate old man whenever he's around Shilpa. It's utterly cringeworthy.

I certainly know she doesn't have one backbone in her body...

How can you say Dirk doesn't have a personality? Jack fits more into that description...

[CJ4Life]

Edwin hit the nail on the head. Now if only he could tell me where he put his hammer.

[jermaineordirktowin]

Yes, Dirk has a great personality, he's really funny at times.

How can people say cleo is boring and has know personality and say jermaine and dirk are more entertaining.

Jermaine just sits around all day doing nothing and dirk just smokes cigars and does nothing.

Whereas, Cleo has been far more entertaining and had me and others in the house in fits of laughter. So how dirk can say she doesn't have a funny bone in her body is hard to belief.

Cleo and the others, did have me in fits of laughter last night aswell, but overall I wouldn't say there was a great difference between the actions of Dirk and Cleo.On a normal day, I tune into Live feed, to find them both just sitting around talking. I don't find either one of them boring though, they both equally have their funny moments, I don't think it's very fair to say Dirk just sits around smoking cigars all the time, he does get involved most of the time, and makes the majority of the housemates laugh.

Because it's true, Jermaine and Dirk have a laugh and have enjoyed themselves just because they don't shout and jump about don't make them boring, Cleo hasn't been entertaining at all IMO, she does nothing at all.

I did untill the night of the argument were she just stood and watched and never bothered to break it up, in the end Jermaine had to come and break it up.

Why do people keep saying it was Cleos job to break it up. There was 7 other people in that house who could have broken it up.

Dirk and Jermaine were in the garden, the bullies wouldn't of broken it up as they loved it, Cleo was standing right next to Jade and Shilpa at the time.

[Siouxsie]

Ian said it was jade and shilpas argument
wimp

[Chrizzle]

I don't think Cleo not breaking up an arguement makes her horrible.
Shes a person who doesn't like conflict.

I can see this whole Dirk vs Cleo arguement really taking off, and there being lots of 'its a joke' 'its a fix' rubbish when the other one wins. I love both Dirk and Cleo. Both nice and both funny.

When Cleo slags off Dirk, she is jumped all over, but it is the other way round and Dirk is hailed a hero.

I know it's so annoying.. then they go on about how Cleo never stepped in and nominated Shilpa..
1. She doesn't like arguments she stated that, so why should she get involved and Shilpa could handle Jade herself.
2. She nominated Shilpa and Jade so doesn't that further prove she doesn't want the argument to continue..

[Sasha]

oooooo he thinks shes a fake

[Hippy]

Cleo is a bit of a dark horse, I'm not really sure what to make of her.

Dirk does have his ups and downs; but overall I think he's ok. Sorta reminds me of me actually, only 35 years older!

[Keith_Can]

I think Cleo nominated Jade and Shilpa because she is afraid of them. I liked her alot until her recent non-actions towards the whole gang up on shilpa. Its true she doesnt have a spine and in my opinion truly isnt funny like dirk says.

[Ruth]

Sorry CJ4Life - you know I love you {), but you knew I'd disagree with you about this.

So...here's my take on things.

Dirk was sleeping when Cleo went in and deliberately woke him up to pester him. I'm not saying that the housemates shouldn't have gone in the living area - it's there for all of them to use, but to deliberately wake him up to pester him is damn rude.

He asked her to stop a couple of times, but she wouldn't. So he went out of the room, and still she followed him around the house doing what she knew was winding him up. Why would someone do that? If someone was upset, why keep pushing it further and further? Because it's funny to see someone upset? To provoke an argument? Who knows? But even the other housemates clearly thought that Cleo should leave it and not follow Dirk out of the living room.

I also thought she showed a nasty side when she was in the diary room and said, "Dirk's about to crack - I think we should play on that." Why?? If someone is on the edge, why try and push them over it? Is it funny to see someone crack up?

Her reasons for following him around were that if he dishes it out, he should be able to take it. What a stupid reason. She mentioned that he was talking to Jo and Danielle about porn and she didn't seem to like that. Well first of all, it was obvious that he was JOKING! Secondly, Jo and Danielle have the filthiest mouths out of all the housemates, so it was pretty obvious that they wouldn't be offended.

Same when he was playing around with Shilpa...Shilpa clearly wasn't bothered by it, as she was laughing around with the rest of them (plus, she has been flirtatious with Dirk, and playing on the fact that he fancies her).

If either Jo and Danielle, or Shilpa had asked him to stop - like he asked Cleo - I'm sure he would have done. He said himself that if he was teasing someone and they told him to stop, he would.

I find it hilarious that Jo said that Dirk had no manners. The words pot and kettle come to mind. Since Jo has been in the house, she has proven herself to be bad-mannered, bad-tempered, foul-mouthed, spiteful and bitchy.

She also commented that Dirk had said she couldn't use his lighter any more. I didn't see him say that, so I don't really know what context he said it in...however, it sounded like the gas in the lighter was going down. Regardless, it's quite ironic that Jo is moaning because he said that to her. She has constantly been bitchy and rude about Shilpa (she's only stopped because Jade was evicted and Jo and Danielle are worried that their behaviour towards Shilpa was not liked by the public). As Cleo herself said, "If someone is going to dish it out, they should be prepared to take it." Maybe she should tell Jo that.

Incidentally, humour is subjective. I personally found Cleo's 'Tiara' character about as funny as a hole in the head. It was just plain annoying.

[sarahtheangel]

what started out as a joke on cleos part went over the top as you could see he was uncomfatable with it but because others thought it was funny she went on and on and on .

[Ruth]

Yes, and she kept banging on about how she could tell that he was annoyed when he was in the living room. Why then did she follow him throughout the whole house?

Cleo's true colours are coming through now - and they're not nice.
