insipid is the word. You're spot on.

Hardly supportive in my eyes.

She WAS a drama queen during the task but that doesn't give Conor the right to behave the way he did!

She'll be too busy laughing at sweet fcuk all to do that.

Sorry for using the example, but if he'd told her to go away and cook a curry he'd be in big big trouble.

But threats to jam a sharp implement up her vagina and punch her in the face? 'His heart's in the right plaaaace!'

That's because racial hate speak is actually against the law whereas people can be disgustingly sexist quite freely without threat of punishment (unless there is a job involved in which case it is discrimination).

Who knows how she feels in private? She's the host of a light hearted spin off show so anyone who is expecting her to get irate on behalf of the housemates during the course of bbbots are of course going to be disappointed. She has to be impartial, it's not that hard to get your head around. Dermot used to say the same when he was hosting bblb. It's her job to have fun with the audience and chat amiably to us at home basically, imagine the outrage if she was seen to be supporting certain housemates over others or petitioning to get someone out? It's also bound to be a legal minefield.

She's OK at the light frothy nothing stuff, but when things get serious like last night, she's just totally out of her depth and has absolutely no idea how to respond to any vaguely controversial opinion, other than the stupid vacuous laugh.
