Just wondering if there is a list of all housemates' that have been removed from the house and their "crimes".A few I remember (not their names).Bloke that spat in Mo's face.Alexandra and her "pow pow pow".Biggins and the bloke from the summer show and the twin,lol.Forgot their names already.
Housemates removed
1 of 2
That list is not entirely correct. Coolio wasn't ejected for unacceptable behaviour in UBB. He left under mutual agreement at least that's what BB told the house. During his diaryroom exit BB said to him since you are having trouble with several of the HM's where do we go from here? In which he replied he is not going to change anything about himself, the show must go on and if BB thinks the house would be better off with out him then open one of these doors. So his exit was negotiated so he got paid and he was even at the finale.
So just 2 removed for past offences that weren't properly researched before they were accepted as housemates.

Yea,very tame these days.He was kicked out like he had murdered someone.

Especially when one considers how BB have become so blatantly selective for the favoured few.
Looking at that list, 2 people were hard done by.
Nick. Understandable as it was all the way back then. The other..... Andrew. I still can't believe he got ejected for that which he did outside the house.

Ahh I remember that wee eejits name..Dennis the spitter.He was supposedly a "friend" of the shows producer.I always remember that daft mare Sylvia squawking and "falling" to the floor when bb announced he was getting kicked out.
I always wondered if Emily in BB8 was "set up".
Not defending IN ANY WAY what she said ........however.... could it have been avoided by the Producers. ??
Especially as BB8 came straight after CBB5, with all the appalling racist behaviour by the Producers "favourite" Jade Goody, who did not get expelled for either bullying or racism
Emily was a Posh girl at boarding school - closed circle of friends - used the N-word when slightly drunk to Charley Uchaea
Shocked in Diary room to find that N-word was forbidden in today's society.
IIRC she said something like "my friends and I call each other that all the time, it's a term of endearment between us"
Cannot imagine that in all the preselection interviews / screenings etc that this did not come up.
What if it HAD come up - and they KNEW she would use that word as she thought it meant "friends" - it meant they could expel her from the house for using racist language.
One researcher having a word with Emily before she went in - advising her not to use the N-Word as she does not understand it's real meaning, would have probably prevented the whole thing
.
Just a thought - but they needed to show they were "strong" on racism and a pretty Posh white girl getting booted out, was just what they needed

One of my fav moments was when Darnell stormed into the "posh" bedroom stating "who in here thinks it's okay to spit in someone's face!".Luke the plook nearly wet himself.

Another factor that could have played a part was that week's eviction. Emily went up against Shabnam in that week's vote and prior to the ejection both the bookies and the polls had Shabnam as the favourite to be evicted. Baring in mind that this series took place straight after Shilpagate it would not have looked good for a posh, white girl who was being portrayed as the villain of the series to stay in the house over an Indian girl whose biggest crime was that she was slightly annoying.
Still really pissed off at the unfairness of Emma's ejection whilst the rest got away with it all.
Alexandra's made no sense; she was up for eviction against Mario and was almost certainly going to be evicted that week. In fact, wasn't it just 24 hours until the eviction? That's probably why they booted her - they were going to lose her anyway, so might as well make it dramatic and grab a few more headlines.
The editing of Dawn's was really odd. Still don't really understand what went on with all that. Read several 'theories'.
Disagreed entirely with Emily's eviction, and the fashion in which it was done (naked at 3am) was shocking. Charley's OTT reaction to it all still has my eyes rolling out of my head.

I don't think it warranted more then an official warning because it wasn't said with malice in the context it was used. I think she was more naive then anything else.

I felt sorry for Emma because of the way they locked her up in that bedsit on her own for almost three days. I would have gone insane.
I don't think Charley was OTT. She was trying to downplay it wasn't she? I remember Shabnam making a huge fuss of it.

Nick getting ejected, made him a lot more famous/infamous than if he hadn't been. It also gave BB massive publicity and arguably, helped Craig to become the undeserved winner.

The situation with Dawn was that prior to entry she had arranged a code with her family on the outside to let her know how she was doing in the eyes of the public, what happened was she told the producers beforehand about a family member being seriously ill and asked to be kept informed which they are allowed to do. However no one was ill, the family contacted the producers to ask them to tell Dawn that the ficticious relative was wasnt as bad as she had been and was improving... hence the code!

I felt this was exceptionally unfair, just a tiny bit of common sense was required to see it wasn't racially abusively intended, really felt for her
I wondered for a second which housemates had been removed. But then realized a series has to actually be happening for someone to be removed. Whoops.
It was sad how the whisper crew latched onto Darnell freaking out in a desperate attempt to distract from Dennis's spitting. I wonder if they feel silly about that now they can look back on it objectively, not just playing who's friends with who.

What is really weird is she wanted to leave and told them that before she got the message. Telling HM's about the code was stupid, if you want to leave just tell BB you want to go!
I don't think we can say Nasty Nick was too hard done by. His ejection was one of the biggest TV moments of 2000. Had it not happened, I doubt he'd have become as iconic as he did. The media attention surrounding his departure was astronomical and he ended up making over a million from it.
I still think part of BB's longevity is down to the success of the Nasty Nick storyline - it was truly landmark reality TV that ensured the entire nation were hooked on BB. It almost feels like he was an actor hired to make sure this, at the time, untested format was successful.

To me, that sounds like attempted damage limitation. I don't know of ANYONE - particularly anyone from a privileged white background, who uses the word at all, never mind as a form of endearment. I'm sorry - I just don't believe that it's true.
& it is not the producers responsibility to coach contestants on what is and what isn't acceptable in terms of language. If people don't have the common sense, savvy and intelligence to know that certain terminology is simply taboo - then frankly, it's difficult to feel much sympathy.
All that aside, I do think Charley milked the situation to the nth degree.

Well she wasnt the sharpest tool in the box, not in the house anyway, as she was a qualified nurse or something i recall?

I agree with this, even if it wasnt the very next series after the the notorious Shilpa/Jade CBB, no one with half a brain would ever think it ok to use the N word in ANY context but after that CBB - it was totally insane!
