The Irish are not a race.

Also Pauline was shown given a warning I thought and if it did show Jale speaking about Helen calling her a non woman then it did get addressed on the show.

It amuses me how the word "racism" is dissected on here when everyone knows people simply mean bigoted against someone because they are different. Racism is just a catch-all term.

Get a grip folks, imitating someone's accent doesn't make you a racist. Helen's like a petulant teenager and a thick one at that. Her rants are so unnecessary and getting really tiresome to watch, it's time they revoked her pass to the final.

PC gone mad!....It wasn't racist at all!!...it was actually the only time that trashy-Helen has brought a smile to my face!...it was genuinely funny! ....and i've heard other housemates and even the people on BBBots mocking Mark's camp scouser accent...but haven't seen anybody claim that that was unacceptable!....Let's face it, Helen has enough genuine faults to be pounced on without inventing other crap to have a go at her for!!
