I heard or read, he set fire to a bin.

Not exactly the Fire of London but if he was prosecuted he has had his collar felt.

Can't help you any further but it has been scrupulously investigated by his detractors and nothing found as yet but do let us know if you find anything else out about it.

Dying to know.

Think about it, he could have been getting warnings for weeks but they might have kept him for revenue then jettisoned him before the final week to allow their chosen winner to romp home.

I don't vote. But if I had voted for Lewis then I would want answers.

Well there is a theory that he has been used and abused, this was brought up by the attack of the three witches on BOTS and Hussain being given the privilege of shouting "get Lewis out". All too much of a coincidence tbh, he went the next day.

In another forum it was said that he had walked, a day or so before it happened. This forum has now taken on Akeem as an administrator. When challenged the person said he was only joking. Just makes one wonder.

Hopefully the punters will get satisfaction one way or another, if it were me I would want to find out. Many pay 100s.

He didnt bolt though and this is what all the confusion is about. Proof is needed as to what context the word was said.

Garfie, I don't disagree that it should've been shown..and If it were up to me it certainly would've been. But I can also see why they decided against it. For what would it do apart from bring unwanted attention to the channel(a channel that has just about ended its association with the franchise), the programme itself(that is now desperate to find a new home), and the ignorant fool who said what he said?

Some things are dealt with behind closed doors for the benefit of all concerned.

This thread is basically saying that BB should never eject people lol...


What kind of logic

Wrong.

This thread is saying that if you eject people then you need to show the paying public WHY you are ejecting them.

I challenge anyone to tell me that is an unreasonable view.

It's unreasonable because the public don't pay to allow a particular HG to be immune from getting expelled. Their save votes are only good for 1 hurdle at a time. Their votes got him over each hurdle he faced, so they got their money's worth. Before they were asked to pay again to get him over the next, he was rightfully tossed out for inappropriate behaviour. His unwillingness to express what he said should be enough for everyone to understand it would do him more harm than good. His "outraged" fans can't blame anyone but the moron himself.

This is a C5 thing being politically correct. Even when the Jade and Shilpa thing went down we were still shown what happened, but C4 was ridiculed for airing it. I suppose it’s just easier for them to not show anything at all and give a vague reason. Still BS though. They’ve taken the appropriate action. They should still show what went down, or at least provide a statement.

They've ejected him so that Cameron can win and push their right wing agenda for one final time before Ch5 sell the show to Netflix/Ch4.

Their right wing agenda? What in God's name are you talking about? Is there anyone who works in television, especially reality television who is right wing? Most of them are homosexuals for starters. They were elated when Courtney Act won over Ann Widdecombe earlier this year.

Ch5 BB has worshipped Housemates with far right wing views such as Katie Hopkins.

Thankfully the public rebelled against those types of Housemates most years, but you do get the odd Jim Davidson victories on this show that disgusts me personally.

That's two housemates. Hopkins (who is not "far right" btw) was not "worshipped" by anyone and was almost certainly disliked by most of the production team who nevertheless understood her to be a good housemate. Davidson was an old fashioned comedian who made a name for himself in the 70s and 80s when the jokes we find "offensive" today were standard fare. He was probably the last of those older comedians to still be on television in the 90s. He was always likely to be the runaway winner because of the profile he once had and his lack of competition.

How a show that has consistently promoted every fashionable cause of the liberal progressive left over the years can be said to be promoting a right wing agenda is beyond me. The reason they like Cameron as a winner is probably because (1) he's the same age as the show and (2) he's a "journey" housemate who came out as gay during his time in there. The only thing "right wing" about him is that he doesn't like feminism much and admires Winston Churchill.

I would add also that there is evidence that the production team fought to keep Lewis in and that it was Channel 5 who made the decision to kick him out. That rings true to me because of the decisions that have helped Lewis stay in longer than he might otherwise have done up until he said whatever he said.

What evidence is there though? Every series if someone is popular with the public the same things are said, I will be honest and say in the past I have thought it as well but what evidence now unless we mean the last episode when they will have used him and then abused him when they didnt need him for the last week.

VTS VTE each of these refer to all HMs, now we will notice that we are voting for our winner. They couldnt make it VTS as the deal was that it would be VTE for the rest of the show. Mmmm so who do they want to win now.

BOTS made it obvious on the show before Lewis went, that the three witches on the panel were dead against him, Hussain shouts out "get Lewis out" was the plot being made or was it coincidence. The cheers were mostly for Akeem. Not often three on one panel so dead against one HM especially after he had had so many cheers from the audience before.

Another forum, they have Akeems family registered there, the organiser puts out that Lewis had walked, this a day or so before he went. Did they know something? Dont forget that Akeem was allowed a public visitor, supposedly the dog, was that questionable? We could go on and on and on and tbh if there is a fix it needs to be sorted right from the beginning. There are so many ways of looking at everything and there is always two sides to every coin.

Akeem would have done better had Lewis stayed because now Cameron is getting the backing from Lewis' fans along with his own and Tomasz and he will most likely win, I hope so tbh as it will make it easier for Lewis it wont have been in vein.
