It showed everyone's character really clearly. John's a shit, tiffany is a thicko who can't quite understand English.

It was great, if could win Megan the series.”

Agreed it will certainly take her to the final

I'm a day behind.. can't wait to watch it tonight when I get home!

FWIW though, it makes me laugh that because she said Ghetto everyone is assuming its racist... as it goes I do think Tiffany's attitude and demoir is quiete 'Ghetto' - am I racist for thinking that, nothing to do with her skin color!? :/ I don't think so!

No. She was hysterical and out of control. There was no humour in it. She was just saying one nasty thing after another and every other word was a curse. I can't, at the moment, remember anyone else going on like that. If security hadn't gone in she would have completely trashed the diary room. I think she should have been thrown out. It was horrible viewing and if she drinks again it will probably happen again

Tiffany, again, had to behave like an idiot as well. Lunging at people like that. What kind of people are they in there. People behaving like animals is not what I want to see.

Spot on. "Ghetto" is an attitude not a colour..

Could you be called racist for describing Aislyne Horgan-Thingy as "Ghetto"?

I don't know if Megan was being racist or not, but people shouldn't automatically jump to that conclusion.

Edit - The bad language being used by Megan, Tiffany and Gemma is disgusting. None of them have an iota of class between them!

Not In the UK. As an insult, its akin to chav, or ned but can also be used as a positive ie Ghetto fabulous. I don't know what thd connotation is in the US and it doesn't matter.

Thanks. I just couldn't connect that to "the housemates didn't care if the others thought they were crazy or not". (I still don't see that as fitting Makosi vs Saskia.)

There was nothing classic about it as it was completely staged by Megan imo. She may have been tipsy but I don't believe she was drunk and rather than being a drunken rant it was more a carefully thought out way to grab some attention and air her grievances in a staged manner.

I think shes one of those people that act all sweetness and light but are incapable of airing any 'issues' in a calm manner. The only way she feels comfortable airing them is by staging a meltdown - that way she can have her say but be excused afterwards because it was just a 'temper fuelled rant'.. and she still wants to be liked.

It also gets others to see her point of view (turn them against John to eliminate the possible competition) without it damaging her in the house, particularly as she can turn on the little sweet charm afterwards and most will excuse her behavior because she was 'drunk'. They wont see that it was a tactical move and they wont see her as a threat in the house because it was 'just' a drunken rage...maybe even quite endearing to some in the house once she starts acting all coy about it afterwards.

I think her comment to Scott about him having his moment in Geordie Shore was very telling. Who in a real drunken rage is aware that they are in a drunken rage - aware enough to state let me finish my rage as you finish yours when its being aired.

All in all a very boring and unimaginative staged rant from an attention seeking, spoilt little girl with a massive sense of entitlement. Stroll on Megan - we've seen it all before a thousand times and generally 'done' much better than that to boot.

I meant that because of how they argued. They said some very un PC things. No where near as bad as Saskia and Makosi though. But the thing with them two (and Megan and Tiff) is that they can give as good as they get. It's not like in the past years where one is more overpowering than the other and we feel sorry for the "quieter one" and brand the B word around.

Makosi and Saskia were very direct and non bitchy and were even worse when they had a drink, same as Megan and Tiffany (and if we must...Chanelle and Charley). I think all 6 were quite non bitchy, they were more "direct". If Megan has reacted in the same way against a HM who just took it and was quiet, she would have been called a bully. Obviously the two being as stubborn as each other avoided that.

IMO, i prefer people who attack head on rather than cowering and bitching for 80 days straight. That could be said for a lot of HMs. Caroline for example. So silently bitchy.

Hasn't Tiffany referred to herself as Ghetto though?
Besides, it's probably more to do with her attitude and not the colour of her skin. For instance, no one would refer to Winston as Ghetto would they?
Probably the same as calling certain people chavvy.

White people also live in Ghetto's. They're not exclusive to the black community just the poverty stricken.
