I'm not a Katie fan, but I 'get' where she's coming from. Who wants to know that people are talking about you behind your back and calling you 'weak' and 'unstable'? The whole scene reminded me of bullies at school. Aubrey sets it all up by being 'honest and open' (and then sits back and watches the shit hit the fan) along with Renee. Aubrey also pretends to be Katie's friend whilst sticking the knife in. If I were Katie I would be just as confused and hurt. Yes, she's fragile, and yes, she isn't talking sense as far as voting for Frankie is concerned - and yes, I think she's been pretty disloyal herself - but what I just saw in that little scene was really nasty. There's a lot of projection going on in there and unfortunately for Katie, she's the perfect screen for it.

She talks about people behind their backs as well.

I was surprised at Katie's reaction because she handled Heavy D's insults very well.

I liked Frankie saying, "You don't tell an unstable person that they're unstable, I'm not crazy".

Not really, she went off the deep end and then stormed off.

I kinda liked her, but she over-reacted and displayed quite a volatile side to her character.

Yes, she called Frankie a game player. But there's a whole other dimension to ganging up and whispering that someone is unstable. They see her as fair game and that little scene was set up by Aubrey to achieve just what it did. They could see that she was upset, so Aubrey twisted the knife by pushing Frankie to 'say it to her face'. That was a sh***y thing to do.
I was watching Anthea Turner talking today and she said there was a nasty undercurrent to this series that she hadn't seen on other series, and tonight proved that to be so.

But that's what I liked, it was controlled aggression and retaliation, with a calm explanation in the DR. Tonight was different.

When HD and Bear were throwing food one time, she lost it a little then - breaking down in tears and unable to deal with the situation or articulate why she was so angry.

She is really not ready for the BB experience - she doesn't have the right make-up. She is way too insecure, under-confident, not comfortable in her own skin and completely intimidated by the stronger personalities.

I didn't mean just tonight.

Katie has been tittle-tattling behind others backs from day one. She's been part of the little group that gossip like a little coven around Renee's bed.

They all do it. Surprised she's so upset to discover it happens behind her back tbh.

She should have laughed it off instead of playing the victim.

Aubrey is a real mean girl, Heathers type, disguising bullying by saying 'there have been conversations around your instability' in that awful robotic Californian accent.

She also seems to go out of her way to stab those closest to her in the back.

Some sort of self destruct thing? Or she thinks she's being clever or something.

There's something neurotic, but also very arrogant about her - and she switches from one to the other.

I agree. Just never taken to her.

We also only get to see the edited version of events, and it's very clear from other controversies this series they are covering stuff up. Who knows what else has been said and not shown to viewers.

I don't like Katie at all but even I felt a bit sorry for her tonight. Something didn't feel right about all that tonight. Even BB stuck the knife in showing footage of her demanding her money.

Spot on. The way she pretended to call to Katie when she came out of the toilet... 'Kadee, Kadee...' as if in sorrow that Katie was so weird.

And I've said I'm no fan of Katie's - I agree that she's not behaved particularly well. But there's a whole other dimension to what went on tonight.

I think she wanted Frankie to be honest. She doesn't believe he nominated her because she's a serious contender but because he feels he'd have a better chance of making it further in the game if it was him against her on eviction night because he believes she's the weaker in terms of popularity.

So sorry you have to put up with the "awful" Californian accent. With the so intelligent sounding British accents on display in there, I understand how it's painful to hear.

Katie bitches and moans in this game-show she's on, that people are "playing the game."

Katie is a loon. She's having issue because she was nominated. Boo-f'n-hoo. She doesn't think that Frankie should nominate her, but it's okay for her to nominate him. She flips out that Aubrey says that people have called her weak, and Frankie says to her immediately that he'd never called her that, but she goes mental, MENTAL, that he called her weak.

Apparently, she can't understand his "awful" American accent either. Or maybe she just hears the conversation going on in her head.

So yeah, It's all Aubrey's fault.

Well, the last line's the most accurate.

She's sucked up to all the Americans, especially Aubrey, pawing and constantly hugging her and also Ricky but then nominated Ricky her so called friend and then Frankie!

Well said!

What puzzles me is that some HMs are playing the game so hard when there isn't even a prize at the end. Are they just after an ego boost?

It's human nature to be competitive and want to win. I know I'd want to win if I had lasted this long, even if there was no financial incentive to do any better than anyone else.

We don't what else is going on and being whispered. Maybe she really is crazy, but it's impossible to know for sure from the edited footage we see that has been sliced and diced every which way to make good TV.
