They cheered everyone didn't they?

I suppose the consolation for her is that both have gotten her on Tv.

But when Bear talks about having someone stick finger up his arse, that's 'entertaining' or 'interesting?'

It probably is, if you're 12

I keep seeing people saying this, yet they provide no evidence to back these claims up. I have also searched for it myself bu can't find any, so these claims are pointless without evidence.

You know, it's interesting. If you're very young or have the mental age of someone young or have no power in your life then I can see that some one like Bear would be appealing in a 'yeah, show 'em' kind of way.

Maybe that's the appeal?

Shows you can't be watching that carefully! It was Bear turning on his boyish charm that drew those 2 stupid women in. He started 'flirting' with them and they lapped it up. I thought Aubrey and Renee had more backbone.

Someone posted the figures a few days ago but this is what I've found just now.

Thanks, but that to me looks like viewing figures are dropping? I'm looking at CH5 total, assuming that it includes CH5+1, it goes from 2.31 million to 1.87 million. That signifies a decrease and not an increase, as some people are implying. Not unless they are comparing these figures to the last CBB series?

We're here to discuss Big Brother, not other posters.

Read the rules, no personal insults. That's not an insult.

Doesn't matter if it's an insult or not, it's not allowed. I have no wish to come over as some ancient school marm because this is a good thread, if anyone starts to wander away from the point of it we all know just how many trolls will jump on board.

Really? Because 'get over it' was such a great contribution to the thread?

Do I need to check with you in advance if it's ok to post in other threads too?

Send me your email and I'll send all my posts to you first for approval.

Btw, if you can link me to the part that says it's not ok to call someone a gem it would be appreciated.

Immature, and no need for the sarcasm. If "your out" you're only doing yourself no favours, you obviously enjoy posting, why let one [what I thought was helpful] comment bother you?

Are you a moderator?

Lol, it would take a lot more than that to bother me

I'm still waiting for the link or rule that says it's against the rules to mention someone is a gem.

Each time I go to respond you've edited your post, so I'd make a lousy moderator wouldn't I. I'm far too slow to monitor

Anyway shall we leave it, I didn't mean to come across as hectoring or being a know-it-all. I don't post as much on here as I do elsewhere and the mods come down on you very quickly on other forums.

I'm a serial editor

I'm of course still open to dialogue with anyone, yourself included. My advice would be if you think a FM has committed a serious rule break on this site then it may be best to contact the moderators directly about the issue. Let them handle it.

And if I do make a mistake (which does happen) I'll hold my hands up.

No personal comments? You only need to go against the dominant line on here and insults rain down about IQ levels, superficiality etc. I got called a bed wetter for defending Marnie.
