Default Imogen was miss-translated!!

On tonight's HL show It said that Imogen said, "I am staying" she did not say this she said "I am for staying meaning I would like to stay.

How can BB miss translate this? It made Imogen look very c*cky!!

Was it an accident or delibrate???

I wondered myself whether they translated it wrong, funny how someone else thinks the same.
But I can't speak Welsh, so who knows.

She was miss-translated, my aunite said she was and she can speak Welsh.
I doubt they'd have done it by mistake cause it's 'Big Brother' so i'm thinking there just trying to get Imogen out.

Do you mean she said 'I'm for staying'? Well if so that is an awful thing to do.

I need to sit down.

I think its only done so people vote her out rather than spiral and michael. If this was misrepresented then big bro MUST apologise and CORRECT the situation asap.

Why all the mis-trust? Are they not allowed to make mistakes? E4 make them all the time! For an hour the other day they had "Catch up" under their logo instead of "Live". Remember these people are human too!

Just shows how far bb will go to get people to change their minds,. the bookies all have Michael and Spiral to go so they are making Imogen look full of herself like Sezar saying she will stay so it hopefully changes peoples minds.

reminds me of when Sezar turned and said to Imogen, if we go up together you will go because the girls are bound to vote for me...

ahem - where are you week 10 Sezar ?

Haha yeah.

Im quite suprised the welsh haven't gone up in arms about this, does anyone know what the exact words for "I am staying" and "I would like to stay in welsh"....is there much difference?

Haha pinched this from another forum, anyone confirm it? Whoever did the subtitles should be sacked.

Rwi am aros = I would like to stay
Rwi am bod yma am y finale = I would like to be here for the final

IRydw i yn mynd i aros = I am going to stay


All this is another reason why they should NOT let them two speak welsh, Most of the watchers are english and cannot understand a word of welsh therefore we rely on the subtitles but when they get it wrong it is worrying. I am neither a fan of Imogen or Glyn as you all know BUT this is totally unfair trying to sway the viewers to vote out Imogen.

I think its great that they did that lol, wrong, bit i loove it. That would have lost Imogen some fans and gained her some Haters, let votes for her when she get to the final, happy days.

Well done Channel 4!

I think Imogen has just dug her own grave bitching in welsh tonight according to teh subtitles...Glyn and her both slagged off the housemates in welsh which was annoying.

Would YOU like this if Richard was misinterpreted by big brother? No.

Im quite suprised it hasn't been blown into a big thing to be honest people don't seem that bothered as its only Imogen...just my opinion. If it was a big character like Nikki, Glyn, Rich, Ash etc I think there would be more talk about it.
