It isn't. I am older than Gary and I still go camping occasionally and sleep in a tent. I'd hate to be treated differently just because of my age. It's patronising and demeaning.
Exactly. I know plenty of people older than me who are far fitter than I am. I don't think Gary is one of them though.
Emma has just made a good point about one of the younger ones stepping up and taking Gary's place
So true, the youngsters should have stepped in here. Bad choice from Leslie, but when u are out on the spot it is difficult, however someone should have stepped in and offered. Gary will walk and this is sad.
Indeed, with all of his problems and his age, he will not be able to sleep outside without a bed.
Surely he shouldn't be in the house at all? It's never going to be a picnic in there.
I agree with sleeping outside in this cold - for anyone, not just Gary.
I do not like Gary's sense of entitlement
Emma has a point there - didn't hear James/David/Ricci offering to 'take one for the team'
I thought that was "naughty" of Emma to suggest that. James/David/Ricci have probably seen the show so could rightly have thought BB would veto any offer to do so.

Well you go do it when you're 70 and in poor health .... then come back and tell us how cold it is!
Lionel Blair was in his seventies and participated in everything didn't he?
Good on Leslie for telling him to go if he can't take part.
I definitely heard a couple of guys say that BEFORE Leslie made his picks. Though I have to admit, when Gary was picked they seemed to go quiet.

But Lionel Blair didn't have same health issues as Gary has!

Not all 70 year olds are the same
Poor health ? what the hell is he doing in there then ?
He accepted the money to go in the show. If he can't be treated like the rest of them then he should leave.
