Hahah no, not that I know of...She could be a dark horse.

But he didn't 'interrogate' her as far as I'm aware. That's just nonsense.

In that case I look forward to a visit to the moon and a good feast of cheese then.....

'Bullying' seems a bit strong............however, Rex does seem to have some sort of fixation on Rachael, when others are coming across as far less trustworthy. Ok her VT may have been 'enthusiastic'......but don't they all sell themselves in the same way?? Oh, and while Rex and co. were originally cowering from Alex when she had a go at the 'mighty' Bex in the first few days, it was RACHAEL who came to her defence in 'CHIPGATE'. LEST WE NOT FORGET....................

Nope. Not remotely Ofcom material. However Rex in my opinion went well OTT with his pestering of Rachel on the subject....To the point of being a bully!!!! I think so like many others.....Her friend Imogen from a previous BB has also published a complaint in the press...

Wish Rex would leave Rachel alone - you would near think he fancied her for he is constantly badgering her for no reason all the time. So she spiced herself up a bit to get on the show but sure they all act like tossers in their vt!

I don't think Rachel gets a chance with all the big characters in the house - they always say that she never has an opinion and sits on the fence but in fact she is the only straight person in the house - when someone talks about her behind her back at least she has the decency and the balls to go to their face and challenge them, also when Alex was picking on Bex it was Rachel who stood up to her - i never saw any of the "fun" housemates stand up to her (except Steph ) In fact Bex & co coward in the corner

it seems as if the other housemates are jealous of anyone who isn't into bitching group. so glad Bex left she is vile Luke & Dale are as bad -didn't think men got on like that

Hi & welcom.......I agree with your defence of Rachel but not with your strong views on Bex and Co except for Dale he is a bit of a creep.......Still we all have differing tastes in human behavour....Enjoy TIBB. Great forum....

Rex seems to have landed in bb by accident ... he keeps trying to be nasty to people, to get evicted, but can't really carry it through, and ends up hugging them.

I agree with Bananarama ... Rex probably fancies Rachel a bit, which is why he keeps going at her ... he's annoyed she's not tough enough to take him ...

Rex should have his arse kicked by midgets, in space, on a Saturday morning...and his pants should fall off.

I hope she just turns around and says "oh off, you boring

I wish someone would say that. There's been all this "oh, I think you're boring etc" and nobody has just said "Like a give a steaming what you think you dull poser."

I think that bullying is in the intent. Had he behaved the same way to Dale, who is very confident, (who's VT was truely something foul) it would not have been bullying, but from the beginning certain housemates have been sniping at Rachael and putting her down for being boring (is it any wonder she has not been the bubbly character of her VT) Rex was deliberately hitting at her where she must already feel vulnerable after all these weeks, and not letting up. He seems to delight in making other people feel small, like saying to to Kat that she just looked like a really fat baked potato in her VT, and you could tell by her face she was so hurt. Deliberately hurting others and getting pleasure/a feeling of power from it is the definition of bulling to me.

I think the complaints to OFCOM are silly however I do think Rex behaved terribly towards Rachel and to a lesser degree Maysoon. He has no right to constantly chip away at someones self esteem. He behaved like a school ground bully who had found something new to pick at his target with.
