Struggling to get my head round Kirstie Alley being in it. Wasn't she a proper actress and stuff?

Seems to be an Auton in the House this year

BB put out a statement about Stormy cancelling at the last minute https://twitter.com/bbuk/status/1030465414994767872

They don't tend to go public about these things, but they wanted to let everyone know she fucked them over.


Hecate

That bloke up there's dropped a couple of N-bombs already and they just gave him a warning.

They must have changed the rules since 2007 - http://www.channel4.com/info/press/news/emily-removed-from-big-brother-after-using-a-racially-offensive-word

I remember feeling quite sorry for Emily. Even though she was a dumb posh thing, her use of the word was misguided rather than used to cause offence. Then dragging her out of bed and evicting her while still half asleep and not really knowing what was happening. But it was not long after Jade's gang so they were taking no prisoners back then.

There's something about the way Chloe speaks that I can tell is gonna bother me.

Surely nobody can look in the mirror with that face and think "Yeah, I'm happy with that". Actually, maybe that's his problem, because he never is happy with what he sees. That coats shit as well.

In the opening show it was said that he'd had 4 ribs removed so his waistcoats fit better.  Yeah right.

Bazooka

His hair looks better then mine, but can he walk very fast?

Elderly Sumo Prophecy

Is walking very fast one of your talents? That sounds smashing. I can only manage an ungainly lollop.

Yeah, that's the thing. People are comparing this to Emily but it was a very different climate back then. BB had a racist stink on it, so they were going to nip that in the bud quick. These things are on a case by case basis anyway, so anyone saying that HMs have been kicked out for less might not be looking at the context of those situations.

Hecate

Spoil sport. and it was on a different channel back then and it was the civilian show, there's probably a bit more paperwork when there's a hefty fee involved.
I think Emily did it partly to shock, she knew the climate and was rocking the boat, hopefully just enough to make a name for herself early on.

Do celebs still get their fee if they get booted out? What about walking?

Nobody watching then?

I find Hardeep pretty annoying, but at least he stirs things up a bit. Was hilarious how fully he committed to the "Dan, Dan, Dan" bit to absolutely blank faces.

up_the_hampipe

Hardeep's alright. Natalie is turning into the villain of the series with her treatment of him. It's entertaining enough so far but it feels a bit empty.

The House Rules given to all contestants clearly state:

Big Brother will intervene and take appropriate action if Housemates behave in a way that Big Brother considers is unacceptable.
Unacceptable behaviour includes: behaving in a way that could cause serious offence to either their fellow Housemates or members of the viewing public including serious offence based on the grounds of race.
Housemates who act in a way that is seriously unacceptable will be evicted.


By today's standards of people getting easily offended you'd think the house would be completely empty in under 24 hours.

Clownbaby

Natalie seems to be one of those people who is full of opinions but can't process other people's without getting angry. I'm finding it oddly hilarious how she keeps giving Hardeep a talking to and "final warnings" and he just couldnt give a shit. He even calmly suggests to do exactly what she is wanting him to do and she's too stupid to realise and gets all prickly. Like how she approached him about his being in  the kitchen and doing all the cooking, he was absolutely happy to step aside if she wanted to do her own cooking, said that, and she somehow managed to take it the wrong way. I know I would hate her if I was in there.

So far I don't like anybody and that psychic bit was so, so, breathtakingly shit

Her smug face when her cold reading bits had little nibbles. Jesus. I wish Hardeep would have had the balls to just come out and say he thinks its a load of old bollocks. Cos it is.


holyzombiejesus

Is this worth watching? I usually tune in but haven't this series (apart from the opening night). They're all dickheads, aren't they? A bunch of legendgarys, shitheads, nothings and that Hardeep the socialist slum landlord.

Hecate

Sometimes a terrible line-up can make for a cracking show, though it hasn't happened yet.
It's usually best to skip launch night (always deathly boring), and sometimes the first week while they're settling in. It should start picking up now, but don't hold me to that.
Do you want me to page you if it starts getting juicy?

There's a gobby cow who picked an argument with them all just as they were doing nominations thus ensuring she'd get nominated.  It's her and Hardeep up this week so Hardeep will probably go because the Great British Public usually like to keep the obnoxious ones in, don't they?


Hecate

Some people are saying this is why he got hoofed - https://twitter.com/LifeWaterUK/status/1032192265584881664

QuoteLife Water has regrettably ended its sponsorship of Celebrity Big Brother after 7 series, following the producers' failure to evict housemate Rodrigo Alves for using deeply offensive racist language. Life Water continues to urge Celebrity Big Brother to reconsider its decision.

Some people are saying he sucked himself off in the shower.

The media are saying it was "too shocking to show", he had a hysterical paranoid fit in the diary room, psychologists were called but couldn't convince him to stay.

Would be nice if they announced something on the show, you don't have to go into gory details or show anything, just give the viewers some idea as to what the fucks going on. Probably deliberate in this day and age, isn't it? Get the show trending on the social meejas?

Clownbaby

I bet all it bloody is is that the producers got in trouble for keeping him in after the N word so they just evicted him later.

But I would prefer if he had actually done some disgusting lewd act in the shower

Clownbaby

It never stops amazing me how fucking childish some people are. There's always a group of housemates that behave like a bunch of horny awkward 14 year olds. Sending little notes? Fuck off haha. I'm not a fan of Hardeep but what he said. Just fuckin get on with it. And they're never, never honest about what their relationship situation is outside. So irritating.

Well, that's just because they want to cheat.

I know that. That's why it's annoying. Anyway it never works for them cause they're CELEBRITIES and the OTHER CELEBRITIES  have heard bits and bobs about their fellow housemates before going in so why bother at all

up_the_hampipe

Must be a first for CBB to have two people destroying their serious outside relationships in the same series.

up_the_hampipe

Well, Jermaine is a fucking dirtbag, isn't he. Even Emma can't hide her contempt.
