Well it means the obvious. Someone is saying they look black. Who said it? Corin? if so I doubt there was malice in it but BB would probably give her a ticking off about what can be said and what can't.

Yes, it means all that. Was it Coirin said it? She comes out with some really quaint expressions for someone who's only 29. My daughter's that age and I can't imagine she's even heard it!

It doesn't mean that at all, it means they are naive.
And as it was from JJ to SS it's understandable seeing as he comes from Australia.

No it was JJ to SS just now on live feed
Do you think so? Surely Born Yesterday, as in "Do you think I was born yesterday?" means green round the edges, no life experience.
But why I have never heard that saying before. Its it ment to mean Black people are stupid who came over in the 60's

Thats what I thought.
No. I dont believe so.
Why are you confused? Do you want it to be a racist remark, if so, why?
I'm confused as no one mentioned it in the WHATM thread and everything JJ does is jotted down in there.
Why Austrlia never came over on Bananna boats thou so why say it.
Wrong......It means...."do you think I was born yesterday"...ie "I`am not that stupid"
It`s not racist....and anyone who says it is; is talking absolute BS
An ice cream dish.
A boat with bananas in.
I think it is. I dont think JJ is racist but the term is.
Im mixed race and the amount of times Banana boat is used to put a balck person down is very common
Ive been on one of them!!
I was thinking the same thing
I immediately thought of those inflatable bannas that are dragged behind a speedboat, but given the replies I'm thinking that's not correct...
As do I.
