Quite profound from Dee speaking to Kellie in garden

Milhause · 20/08/14 - 21:06

Kellie speaking about fighting who he is for years and saying he felt he had "lost" and Dee asking although he felt he had lost but had he won too?

I am liking her more every day......shit!!

From a self proclaimed benefits scrounger hater....

Don't forget she had coaching from the pr agents, so I'm still waiting to her to become real, but time will tell

Yes, but even at that....I feel her advice/support cam from the heart. No amount of pr coaching can bring that out imo.

She was like that on Benefits Street she does seem to be very good at listening to people and giving advice

vanora · 20/08/14 - 21:40

It will interesting to see her in action when she forgotten the cameras are there

I'm just watching on the plus one. It is heartbreaking really. No one would go through all that a sex change brings with it unless they had no choice, especially at her age. I also think Dee's advice is from the heart. I only watched one episode of Benefit Street but Dee came across to me as very caring. She looked after some of the more vulnerable people in a very delicate way.

That's what struck me too.......LISTENING

In a house where they tend not to listen to anything but the sound of their own voices, it was really nice to see

I find their chats about as exciting as watching water boil.

Great post. I don't get the hate for Dee, she came across as a caring lady, especially when she helped a neighbour by taking him to hospital with a cancer scare and when he was going to meet his son. I can imagine she would be a loyal friend. Hope I don't end up eating my words (Pauline was my favourite at the start)

This. It is nothing to do with coaching and PR. She was exactly like this on Benefits Street when she thought it was a show about community and had no idea how huge the show was going to be.

Maybe not "exciting".......probably insightful/thought provoking/supportive?

Absolutely.

Not you as well?

I'm backing Dee too

I think she's a nice bint who's made some dreadful mistakes for which she's paid dearly and now it's time for her to start living again.

I wish her all the luck :cool:

[Deleted User] · 20/08/14 - 22:20

She seems extremely genuine so far. I can't help but like her

Kellie is coming across well too.

Haha, I also really liked Caroline (from Luke A's year) at first. Maybe not as good a judge of character as I think

Oh dear. The sheep are buying it hook, line and sinker I see.

You don't have any objection to me completely ignoring your patronising old bollocks do you?

I am no bleeding heart (having worked in high security forensic mental health) and could be described as hard nosed.

So what exactly am I "buying into" do you have some insider knowledge of Dee being some sort of worse in the world satan?

Yes, she has made mistakes, I know she was done for fraud etc but maybe she HAS....deep down a nice personality.

Ever did anything stupid...or are you just perfect?

Pardon me, I didn't specify. I was referencing Kellie. I quite like Dee.

Given my opening post was clearly about the support Dee was giving Kellie is it not the case you are trying to back track.........given the fact that no-one agrees with you?:D

Why is it that when people stand out as NICE and good housemates from the word go then people start talking about 'chosen ones' and 'fix' - some people simply come over better than others and become a talking point.

I find all this 'chosen one' rubbish a bit silly - and the talk of sheep offensive.

Would you please explain why Dee should be the 'chosen one'. What is to be gained in favouring her or anyone else come to that?

I'll admit I didn't read your opening post!

I saw a mention of Dee and Kellie's conversation and I thought it was a case of sympathy for the devil, so to speak. Apologies.

ETA: And no one shall read any of my replies but my initial one....

Yep that leapt out at me too Bunions and curvybabes. A housemate that listens - first in 14 years??
