I think the problem is that Sam finds it really hard to read her lips her accent is very strong and the sound doesn't match her lip movements, she hasn't got any idea how deaf he is and should maybe try harder. Sophie and the twins don't make sure Sam is looking at them when they speak to him and if they are all talking he must miss a lot.

He wears twin digital hearing aids. He can hear when he wants to. He can bitch when he wants to. And he's never talked about his deafness in an educational way, despite saying when he went into the House that he was 'doing it for the deaf kids' or whatever. All he's done is actually moan about it on the live feed, aka gone for the sympathy vote.
It's all been done on here before, but if Sam finds it too hard and expects sympathy, he shouldn't have gone in for Big Brother. I'm not sure that really answers your question Soppy, but to be honest, people care a lot less about Sophie than they do about Sam.
You really don't know enough about Sam to say what he hears. So petty to say such a thing. He does not moan about his deafness. He has brought it up on a couple of occasions, that is not moaning! You have made it clear that you don't like him but stop making up things about his disability.
Clique, isn't it.
You/ Sega Gamer et al don't need to defend against every little thing said about Sam; it's embarrassing and also a little patronising. Sam is a grown man who put himself up for public scrutiny - he is therefore as fair game as anyone else is to be criticised.
BTW, I don't dislike Sam, I just don't find anything especially good to like about him, and certainly don't want someone to win on the back of the sympathy vote or just because they were the least offensive. I may have accepted that in the early days of BB, but I think the prize should go to someone who deserves it, who's earned it.
Or, we might as well not bother having a Big Brother and just give the money straight to charity?
He aint deaf, hes got hearing aids.:rolleyes:
He's 70/80% deaf.
Don't play ignortant, and what's with the roll eyes. Very unnecessary imo. He has 70% hearing loss in one ear and 8% another.He wears hearing AIDS,the clue is in the name
He can hear with his aids in, so dont you play ignorant :rolleyes:
The same feeling many get watching her on the Highlights Show.
OMG,words almost fail me,,but here goes..HE IS DEAF. You can spin it what way you like, dislike him all you want but it doesn't change the facts. His hearing apparatus "aid" him to partially hear & he combines this with lip reading to comunicate with others.
I know someone who is deaf, have aids in and can hear ok.....chilllllllll
Practise what you preach..I cannot comment on your friend..what I can comment on is Sam and he is deaf which you said he isn't. Ok that clear enough..
No, please explain how he knows when BB call him to the diary room.And dont say the others tell him.
Please dont start attacking forum members, keep to the housemates :rolleyes:
Yes it is your so right
I'd like to agree with you on this but i can't.
The reason why i can't is down to Sam himself after Callum got evicted and the rest were all in the garden talking about it, including Sophie. There were at least 6 people all talking over each other and not once did Sam stop anyone or show any kind of problem hearing any of them at all.
That's so true he has 70% in one ear and 80% in the other and that's WITH aids, without he said he has none at all.
Good point but I think he is just so unsure of what he hears is right or not right he just doesn't get involved, god why am I fighting his corner I am no so keen on him as a person anyway lol
Why does everyone in the BB house feel they have to like everyone . Surely we all know or realise that in any group there are some people you like and others less so . Sam and Sophie don't click and their heart to heart on last nights LF only confirmed this because at the end it did nothing to bring them closer.
Wow, you are totally clueless.
I have never and will never stoop so low as to attack a forum member, so do not now, or ever throw that accusation at me.:mad: Ridiculous!!!
I have pointed out to you that you are persisting in ignorantly stating as fact..that Sam is not deaf. I have therefore in my responses to you told you that you are wrong. This is not an opinion, but Factual, whether you choose to believe it or not. And again...Sam is DEAF.
