I find Nigel & Rhona equally irritating. They are both incredibly bossy & simply want everything thier own way.

Nigel just got annoyed that they were there and someone was moaning. That someone was Rhona, I doubt their sexuality had anything to do with it!.

If I was in the jungle like them I would try and get on with everyone and make the best of it. Everyone has their faults, its the way you tell people about their faults determines if you are a good communicator or not.

Seen as Uri and Christine both eluded to the fact Rhona being gay may underline some of the clash with Nigel makes me wonder about what conversations have been going on in the camp which we obviously won't be privy to...

They are as bad as each other and are the two contestants who have disappointed me the most. I expected Rhona to be much more friendly and humorous but so far she's just a painy grump. Nigel is an inflexible, dogmatic sod I thought he'd be much more thoughtful No wodner the two of them clash.

Yep... so far Rhonna has only come across as bossy, moaning and with little sight of the humour that she's made a career of... watch career nose dive! She was also so bloomin certain that the milk price was 'B', even damned obstinate about it! I think the others just went along with her as she was so 'certain' she was right... NOT! Oh Rhonna...

She needs to stop taking herself so seriously, that's for sure - she's probably never going to be a mainstream entertainer, but if she could relinquish control and laugh at herself a bit, she could turn it around, a la Alex Sibley.

I think she should of kept the fact that she thought the people voted were hated by the public because shes hurt Tara again.

What got me was that when Rhonna turned out to wrong over the milk (and to be fair I pay the milkman about 40p for mine) the whole thing was supposed to be Christine's fault for not stopping her!

I thought I was going to like Rhonna!

yeah! I liked that turn about! Problem is Rhonna is just no Jack Dee. She seems to be just a bossy very opinionated woman with a big chip on her shoulder. And no one likes her.

Rhona being gay has nothing to do with anything !

She is clearly using her sexuality to gain the credibility that she totally lacks as a so called comedienne ( because she is not funny ), or as a contestant on this show ( because she is only there to raise her profile with the public and not to play the game ), or as a decent human being (because she is not ).

I am so disappointed with her in so many respects - Rhona is coming across as an arrogant, rude, argumentative, boring, stubborn, unreasonable, selfish git ! She believes the world revolves around Rhona and if you don't like it or if you don't fit in - then get off before Rhona throws you off ! YUK.

I do feel really sorry for Rhona. She does seem to be being picked on a lot. She is acredited with being a moaner because she tells people what she thinks if she doesn't like something. I don't think there's anything greatly wrong with that. In some instances it's really good. And I think I've agreed with everything she's 'moaned' about. She was right that Tara does act childish sometimes (that's not exactly the worst thing you could say about someone) And she was right that people vote someone to do the challenge who they currently don't like.

That little clique (sp?) of Darren Day, Tara, and Nigel Benn are really getting on my pip. I now think Darren Day is a really nasty bloke. He's soooo sucky up to those two and if he wanted to say to Rhona 'Shut the **** up!' why didn't he say it to her face!? Because he would be shown up for what he is.. a rude selfish sod!

They don't like Rhona and she knows it. She must feel the atmosphere and Nigel has told her that people don't like her (it wouldn't take a genius towork out his gang have been bitching about her). Tara is the new Adelle.......

No, no, no

I dislike Adele so much, but I like Tara.

If you where there with them & had to put up with that moaning, loud mouthed, unfunny, farting lesbian – you would bitch.

If I was with a vacuous, loud mothed, baby voiced, brain fried society leech I'd have to complain and speak my mind to her. You see - I don;t find "You've been Framed funny" so I don't find Tara falling over funny. You don't see Rhona bitching......

I didn’t find Tara falling over funny, but You’ve Been Framed brings a smile to my face occasionally. Rhona isn’t bitching because she’s too busy moaning & besides who can she bitch too, they all try to avoid her.

Tara is a wee bit sensitive, Rhona should take a leaf out of Tara's book. Play the little girl, leave the other's to cook and clean. It seems to be working for Tara

Or perhaps he knew that she's prone to aggressive behaviour and thought she might spoil his looks.

Tara has been doing her fair share of jobs around the camp. That vacuous society leech thing is a bit of a myth, in this camp, at least.

I really wanted to like Rhona - I saw some of her stand up in the early nineties - but I'm failing. Last night, when she insisted that a pint of milk was more than 35p, and got it wrong, and then turned around and blamed Christine for not being loud enough with the right answer, was the final straw.

is it completely radical to say that i don't like tara or rhona?

rhona's whinging and unwillingness to be flexible in the group would drive me mad (not sure why some people find her being a lesbian to be irritating though?), and so would tara's maddeningly irritating voice, lack of a brain and obvious love of herself.

is it allowed to dislike both of them?! (there seems to be a bit of a BB pattern developing, where everyone's forming into 2 camps over the contestants).

Is Rhonna being gay an issue?

According to the other celebs Nigel has problems with her sexuality and there have been undercurrents of people expecting her to behave in a more aggressive way due to their preconceptions.

This can be a self-fulfilling prophecy if she feels she's being excluded and has to put her views forward more strongly as a result.

I also think she was cheesed off quite early when Tara remarked that Rhonna had said she quite fancied her! According to Rhonna all she'd said was that Tara looked better for being less dressy. Obviously Rhonna didn't want other people to think she was hitting on the other women - as indeed she hasn't - which would only reinforce the stereotyping.

Having said all which she has indeed been a pain in the butt!

btw I can't stick the accident montage progs either, but IMHO Tara's fall was funny all the same!

You have permission to dislike both. Beware, those of us not in the Cult of Tara are considered dangerous heretics.

If I were in the jungle with the celebs I'd want my voice heard to be honest. Alas cliquey groups are forming which leads to exclusion. Rhona has attempted to smooth things over but it seems to be to late..the bitching has started.....

No...I respect your opinions. That doesnt mean I agree with them though!.I just happen to like Tara a lot more than before she was on this show. I dont think she has a bad bone in her body.

Bless. You'll be starting a mutual support group next.

Now where are the stakes and the kindling?
