Normally they'd warn housemates over the smallest of things but this series we've had Marnie flashing her boobs in Saira's face, Lewis admitting to his group picking victims, Biggins's comments on bisexuality, James's comments on religion etc and yet not one warning has been given (or at least shown) so far?

Seems kinda odd And they've gone back to head-to-head evictions again just randomly out of the blue Production seem to be always switching their criteria lmao

[Jake.]

yeah, if it carries on like this then sure, go for it

[Clootie Dumpling]

Well, they let Jason get away with booting in the door to the diary room - rather than chucking him out for being violent, they let him win - so I guess it's par for the course!

I agreed with him - from what I remember, he said that all religions were nonsense.

Stop twisting things, I'm not saying he should've been warned at all, but him saying religion is nonsense is the type of thing I'd expect C5 to warn him about for "offending viewers" or w/e

I know what he said, I am just a bit baffled as to why it was added into the op about things that would have been a warning in the past?

He's as enitled to have an opinion as anyone who believes in religion.

[Clootie Dumpling]

Sorry for causing any confusion, Hayden. I thought you were suggesting that James's comment about religions was equally as bad as the Marnie tit-flashing incident and 'The Squad's' bullying.

He's just saying C5 are usually really strict and anything slightly constroversial like that could get a warning so he doesn't go too far

He's got that right ... Religion and the church are just crowd control and if God does exist then neither Religeon or the church have got anything to do with it. ... It's only about money and power.

Because the producers make it up as they go along. They've never ejected someone before for breaking out of a fire exit, even in past series when the same person has done it multiple times. Last regular series they needed to get rid of HM's because they decided to cut the series short and chucked Emma out. Will they stick to that rule in the future, no of course they won't.

[Maxxie.]

Religion wise I find Renee's comment about Islam more offensive than James's anyday, not that I care though. You're an adult and you're supposed to deal with these things.

On the subject of the production team intefearing a bit less, I like that, gives more of a back to basics feel.

If a housemate ever does it twice I think they will you know.

[bitontheslide]

i think there is way to much over analysis of each little thing that a housemate does personally. I've been out with friends where a little horseplay will occasionally get a little out of control. So what. It happens. If its consistent, then its a different thing of course, but the occasional prank here and there shouldn't warrant a warning. Also, i'm all for free speech. Let people say their piece and see where it leads, otherwise, what's the point in watching the show.

They can't win really. Give out warnings and they are too harsh and should let them all get on with it. Don't give warnings and still wrong

[armand.kay]

It's better this way.

Thank you! I'm glad someone actually gets the point of the thread!

BB fans are generally fickle as hell these days and love to feign offence It all boils down to if you are a fan of the housemate or not
Fan = so what stop being so PC
Not a fan = I am so offended this is a disgrace action needs to be taken.

I miss the middle ground it doesnt seem to exist any more i find being a cheerleader for 1 housemate no matter how they behave and slagging off everyone else so boring and silly but that seems to be the way these days and all it does is kill any chance of a decent discussion.

oh Hayden loov its clear you're not moaning the chicks need to let you live.

[aj2463]

Good. It's been a bit ridiculous. Warnings for violence sure, but for sharing your opinions on sexuality/religion... No. It used to be the point of the show. Different personalities, different views and opinions.

All you had to do was explain it a bit better.

It isn't that simple bobnot.

A few times after praising a Hm and then next day ripping into them for something people start slating you and branding you a troublemaker or troll.

Which I suppose is the fault of the mods for allowing people to insult other members at times.

[starry]

They may have said something but nothing was shown, and just tried to keep quiet about it. Particularly if they didn't want to paint an even worse picture of Bear and his gang.
