Did you find the David Bowie / Gest misunderstanding situation amusing or not?

I can see how others would find it funny, but I personally found it get very tiresome, very quickly.

You'd have to have a heart of stone not to laugh.

In the most grotesque way - I'm afraid - yes. It's bloody hilarious.

Other - I am disgusted.

Watch it back, Tiffany was distraught and genuinely thought Angie meant David Gest - Why, when Tiffany was about to go into the Garden and tell EVERYONE (AGAINST ANGIES WISHES) didn't BB call Tiffany into the Diary room and nip the confusion in the bud?

Yeah you may laugh, but its disgusting to monetize a situation.

No one seemed terribly bothered about David Bowie actually dying.

I haven't really lahghed but I can see why people would, especially that David Gest was in bed with the covers over him too and then they went to check on him!

True.

it was allowed to get out of control. But I guess that's exactly what they wanted.

It was a LOL moment but really ....................it's pretty despicable.












I am still tittering just a little bit though.

I must admit, I'm absolutely devastated about Bowie, that really made me laugh. I'd like to think with Bowie's humour, he'd be up there laughing like the Laughing Gnome

It was just a misunderstanding, Angie should have said DAVID MY EX HUSBAND HAS DIED, FFS.

I feel like it should have been funny, but that it wasn't actually because it didn't feel real. I don't know whether that's because it was badly edited and 30 minutes were condensed into 5 with various bits missing, or whether it's because it was staged. I can't believe they would stage something like that, and yet it felt distinctly am-dram. Ultimately it just left me kinda 'meh'.

It was extremely funny in some parts and extremely uncomfortable in others. Uncomfortable to see Tiffany receive that "news" and her reaction to someone's death but also quite funny knowing that she got totally confused.

I feel sorry for Angie and Tiffany, It was a misunderstanding that was allowed to blow out of proportion, and both of the above are entitled to be angry - watching the others (led by John) calling for Tiffany's ejection is disgusting and not fair at all.

"Could Angie and Tiffany please come to the Diary room" is all that needed to be said.

The funniest episode of BB ever,I laughed until my sides ached....I've put it in my planner to record on +1 so I can save it and play back when I feel down. I'm sure David Bowie would be splitting his sides too RIP Beautiful man x
