Wow, 50,000 - puts my pathetic post count to shame.
Congratulations again Wonkey and thanks on behalf of all Luke Anderson supporters for your sterling defence on the main forum. Unfortunately, as my mum used to say, you can't argue with ignorance. What have I got? http://bigbrotheruk-s2cdn.channel5.c...eApainface.jpg Sorry about the rather poxy choice of photograph to illustrate it. Half the stuff on google images won't link to digitalspy. Came in the post just now. ![]() ![]()

Wow, congratulations on 50,000 posts. It only seems like 5 minutes since we were congratulating you on 40,000.
It probably was. ![]() I could do with a PM chat with any/all of our regulars if anyone's up for it. Serious stuff I'm afraid.

It's turned into a hen-witted game of 'he did!', 'didn't!' 'Did!' 'Didn't!' Though of course I am right. The poster obsessed with penises sounds very familiar indeed.

I've messaged Val both here and on facebook. If anyone has heard from her I'd be grateful if they'd let me know to put my mind at rest or maybe explain the problem.

I'm here, don't worry!
Thanks for the offers, it'll probably be late tonight when I've got together what I want to say. Please don't panic, there's just something concerning me I need to mull over with you lot.

Was looking back at the part 1 appreciation thread (not the whole thing, just a few pages) and I had forgotten how disillusioned and angry we all felt on 3rd August. Here's my post from that day:
http://forums.digitalspy.co.uk/showp...postcount=3411 It was a horrible twist, and I still feel livid that Conor skipped off with half Luke's prize money. ![]()

I don't feel livid that Conor skipped off with half of Luke's prize money ... I'm livid that (a) Conor got anything at all and (b) that money could have gone to Adam (who probably really needed it), and/or Deana who surely deserved something for everything she had to put up with, when she had probably a greater claim to have a cushy number in Celeb BB than some of those who have been in. Heck, I would even rather Luke S got it because at least he provided entertainment and was probably the least nasty of the Insider group.

Yes, fair enough. I see that the thread attacking Luke A has been locked. Random. I wonder who reported it, and for what. I thought I was very reasonable, so hopefully not me.
Strange that in their logic no one disliked him because he was transgender but everyone who supported him only did so because he was. I did notice some of the posts after mine were getting personal and there was a link to the banned poster's thread so that may have had something to do with it - or maybe it had just turned into a discussion on the reasons people voted for Luke rather than discussing the original post. Either way I'm glad it's done, it's exhausting trying to argue with someone who will always twist what you say to make it mean what they want it to mean not what you actually said.

It certainly wasn't me who reported it either although I meant what I said about not contributing any further. I laid my neck on the line and related many of the personal reasons I supported Luke only to be told that it only proved that it was all due to his transgender status
The post in which you gave personal reasons was this one. It's not quite clear what "all" in "it was all due to his transgender status" refers to, but no one said that post proved your support for Luke was all due to his transgender status or that all the support for him was due to his transgender status. But a couple of people pointed out that in a different, earlier post, you wrote: Quote:
In my opinion he won DESPITE his transgender status not because of it ... for the simple reason that he convinced enough people that someone can be born female, change their gender, go through a painful operation and endure lots of hatred just for trying to be the person on the outside that they feel they are on the inside ... yet still prove themselves to be genuine, nice, kind, funny, caring and a really good friend to those who deserve it.
I think that's a perfectly good reason to support Luke, btw, but his transgender history is rather central to it.At first, that was interpreted by some as being your reason (for supporting Luke) too; but if it isn't (and it doesn't seem to be, given some of your other posts), fine. |

Routine transphobic abuse on twitter. Or is it?

![]() Very shocked and saddened to hear about this. I hope both him and Becki are okay and that their split was at least amicable. My goodness, this has put a dampener on my evening.

they say it's amicable. A lot of pressure on both of them I think. But yes,

It was a pleasure to find such a lovely person as Luke (and Becki too) but much of the rest of the show left a bitter taste for me. I hope people give Luke and Becki a bit of breathing space after this - they seemed so much in love and Becki was positively magnificent in standing up for him but I guess in the end there's only so much anyone can endure before the cracks start to show. |
