Am I in a minority here?

I think Bobby Davro - and I'm not a fan - was dignified and spot on at the end of the episode against Farah (and the other one).

If they all treated her the same way and didnt argue it would drive her demented.

If you call baiting someone being dignified.

I wouldn't argue with her, just ignore her and walk away. She doesn't know the meaning of the word dignity.

He did the dirty on his friend of thirty years,farrah did some research.Not saying what she said was decent but it was truthful to an extent.

Diversity of opinion is great.

For me, it was the sight of a fifty-plus person sat in bed, talking, against a striding, shrieking, I won't choose the noun that follows....

Dignity discussion not needed.

He was NOT dignified .
My God he told her he felt sorry for her because clearly she had past issues ! The cheek of him dissing anyone else over their past when the skeletons in his own cupboard are rattling like castanets .

He should have put his hand up , stated he was NOT debating with her , and left her to rant at thin air . That would be dignified . Not aggravating her and then playing the innocent victim out in the garden later .

IMO he was so light on her. She should be treated yhe way she treats others. Don't care how it makes me look but if she spoke to me like that I'd go all Helen Wood on her ass. She attacks personal thing, so would I. And by God would I win the row. I would go for 4 hours if need be

I'm not a fan of Davro trying to come across like butter wouldn't melt in his mouth. He's sly and devious. Farrah is the wrong one to mess with because she literally feels she's nothing else to lose and will let rip with everything.

I don't know. I'm suspicious of the editing and what gets missed out.
Something preceded that incident which wasn't shown. It seemed to start very abruptly and I wasn't sure what was going on at first or how it started.

Likewise at the end, I didn't understand what was going on. Something else which just suddenly started with little context.

I think that there is a lot that's missing from the edit.

Farrah's an idiot and appears to have no guile or intelligence. She doesn't know how to play the game.
Bobby on the other hand strikes me as quite intelligent and very cunning. He puts on a very 'innocent' face but I'm not sure if I buy it. I think he knows how to play the game very well. People who have been the most similar to him in previous series always seem to do. I'm speaking of course of older mainstream comedian types who have been in the entertainment business for decades. They tend to be very good indeed at controlling the situation around them. People like Farrah have absolutely no chance against them.

How does she know about bobby's back story? Opening nights are supposedly where they get to know each other. This lot have had their agents clueing them in for weeks now on who their HMs are.

Completely agree and just said the same in my post.

He could have just ignored her but he knew what he was doing. I don't think it's difficult
to win an argument with Farrah , she just shouts ,swears and insults you.Just her talk and nod back...job done .I laughed at him out in the smoking are all chuffed with himself at "winning" . I am no fan of Farrah's but I find him sly....not a fan .

I wonder if BB are trying to get the UK HMs more involved, while keeping the ranting US reality scripted pros busy... and called Farrah to the DR and fed her the stuff on Bobby to throw when she got the chance.

I meant to comment on that actually .
That story only emerged in the papers after CBB started . Farrah couldn't have read it . Even if it had come out prior to CBB I doubt it would come on her radar when she didn't even know he would be in the house with her and he is too much of a nobody to Americans .
CLEARLY bobby has told them . Which stinks . It was a story that hardly covered him in glory and I doubt the others involved in his alleged bed hopping exploits will enjoy him mouthing off in BB . Boasting ?
He should have kept his gob shut and she wouldn't have had that ammo .
