The media are reporting that there is a lot of bullying happening in the big brother house? You got make friends in there and get someone on your side. Is there physical or mental bullying going on?

There has been no bullying at all. A few confrontations that you would expect, and where both sides have more than held their own.

The only really unacceptable thing that has happened so far was James Whale pouring coffee over Bear.

Is the constant antagonizing and physical assault of people when they've clearly stated "stop" no longer considered bullying? So what's it called now then?

I am amazed at these attempts to rewrite 'coffee gate' to exclude the absolutely horrible behaviour of those that instigated the whole thing.

James was REACTING.

That was perfectly acceptable. No, that was more than acceptable.

It was bullying all right. Lewis had even said they were giving Saira a day off and would have to find another target. And they found James.

The way Marnie - on the encouragement of HD, Lewis and Bear - pushed her boobs in Saira's face etc. was classic school yard bullying.

The way Lewis, Bear and HD ganged up touching and groping James the other day was classic school yard bullying.

So, let's completely disregard what happened before that, shall we?

3 "grown men" invading James's space after he repeatedly told them to stop?
Bear retaliating with sugar and pan of water.

Lewis sitting in the diary room saying after the Saira /Marnie tits incident they were going to leave her alone and look for a new "target"?

Yeah right.

Do you live under a bridge by any chance ?

I'm not a fan of James Wale but I think he held it together well considering the provocation - by not one housemate but THREE. Having asked them repeatedly to stop....and as already mentioned, Lewis said in the diary room that their next "target" was going to be James. Classic bullying. As was the Marnie boobs incident. Nasty bunch.

It would have only been slightly unacceptable if the coffee was already in steaming hot water!

Lewis seems to have a bully's mindset, while Stephen is generally an angry and stupid individual. Put those two together and they are truly unpleasant.

I must have watched a different show, I only saw Heavy and Bear doing what they were doing to James - who is the 3rd?

Lewis was there cooking or something wasn't he, but he wasn't participating in the physical harassment of James.

Oh I think Stephen is a classic schoolyard bully - antagonise, get a rise, then over the top comeback.

Often followed by protestations of innocence and strategic telling of half the story.

He's angry and stupid too mind.

But I agree about Lewis.

As I remember, it was dying down and Stephen encouraged it to continue.

So it is ok for 3 men bear being one of them to invade someone's personal space and to constantly touch him and to be asked 3 times to stop it, but they chose to carry on invading James personal space so can't see how you can single James out when he was only reacting to constant invasion of personal space and he want laughing when he asked them to stop it -they wanted a reaction and they got one

Who the hell is Stephen?

ETA: Just remembered, that's Bear's name. I'm not keen on this using the names they aren't using on the show to confuse everybody malarkey. They are using different names on the show, why are FMs insisting on confusing everybody with their real names - did people do that with Dappy too?

I may be wrong but I think he was also joining in with the stupid noises although not physically participating in the head slapping etc.
