Celebrity Big Brother 2007

[danny la rouge]

I used to work with the executive producer, I bet she is pissing her pants now, she never seemed all that hard nosed.

I've complained to Ofcom and you should too.

http://www.ofcom.org.uk/complain/

They even have a 'complain about CBB' button on the front to make it easy.

I've written:

"The treatment of Shilpa Shetty by other housemates, particularly Danielle Lloyd, has been unacceptable. The programme's producers should have intervened early to tell Ms Lloyd especially her behaviour had gone beyond reasonable.

It is arguable that some of the remarks made - again particularly by Ms Lloyd - had racist undertones, but in any case constituted bullying.

The programme now needs to in some way publicly reprimand those involved in bullying Ms Shetty, so that viewers are left in no doubt that the behaviour was uinacceptable. This should happen whether or not Ms Shetty complains."

my other half said to me the other night, it's going to be interesting to watch what happens to danielle after she's out considering her other half is a footballer and many footballers happen to be black and a few of the younger ones coming into the profession happen to be asian, it's not going to be good for him if his girlfriend is seen to be a racist in the public eye.

 

[Treacle Toes]

It doenst take much for Indian nationalists to take to the streets.

Bollywood is at the centre of popular culture in India. That includes the music industry and TV. Stars are worshipped in that environment. They are respected and protected. I'm not surprised that they have reacted badly. Imagine how this story is being reported and looks to them.

Maybe Sheringham will finally retire ?

I doubt it will make any difference at all tbh

I'm pretty sure that most people couldn't give a crap about all this and see it as a storm in a teacup.

The only people getting really worked up about it are outraged right-on pc liberals that can't wait to stir up some kind of race war and the ethnic minorities that they are manipulating into doing so

 

[pengaleng]

I dunno tbh, racism within football is a pretty hot topic and one which they will take very seriously however thinly veiled it might be.

i reckon the obnoxious scally bint will be dropped like the sack of shit she is...

jo thick essex bird doesn't really understand the wider implications and is jsut tagging along to not have the bullying turn on her which is why she's freaking out wodnering if shilpa goes will it turn on her...

jade, manipultive but ultimatly can't make her mind up from one minute to the next has absolutely no consistancy in how she applies herself or in what she says is ultimatlye 100% in the influence of what ever is happening at that time and was the first time round too. if one group of people appear strong she tags on and spouts their ideas out parrot fashion with out considering the implications of what she's saying if antoher stronger influnence speaks then she then agrees with that... she doesn't know her own mind becuase she simply cannot comprehend things on that level... it's almost autistic in her reactions and constant mind changes with the same level of convistion.

clio, blown it big time from being favorate to win after donne left nad leo exploded in to nutcase city... althoguh she is clearly biting her tounge for a large part of what's going on she will not stand up to the more dominant girls and lack confidence to speak out.

shilpa is typical of many rich well off mumbai residents, she's very typical of them in fact. same accent saem attitude same level of informed interlect but naive charm she isn't playing it and is beign very very mumbai, in that way she does appear false, however this is a constant from the culture of which she has lived and worked. is she milking it sure of course but she's in line to win and i think she knows it...

face and jermaine hopeless old men who should know better. jermain should stnad up to them and say hang the fuck on people wtf and the face should be standing up for the girl he fancies if he really is all that shooting hiking wilderness mans mans shite he keeps coming out with... whose the other one

oh jades boyfriend ... what a thick twat... really yorkie should use him for quality control...

they need to stick jon lydon back in there for a bit ... that'd sort things out... that or Samuel L Jackson...

 

[GarfieldLeChat]

Wow, we're finally going to see some indian football players

maybe lower under 21's team football doesn't always = first team football does it... there still some way to go before there is acceptence and i'm goign to cringe like fuckery when they inevitably do that whole 'first muslim/sikh/hindu player in the premiership'

 

[revol68]

Samuel L Jackson, Retarded slags on a plane?

True. Don't really know much about football, but when I get a question about indian football players, I never have an answer. I usually just say, we're too busy being middle class professionals

 

[PursuedByBears]

Now then - tonight, three people were supposed to be going into the house. That's been abandoned due to this 'race row' fiasco.
There may now be more than one person evicted on Friday night.
And I should be getting you nomination results this afternoon with any joy.

Yes...throw Lydon in there. He'd take no shit. The current representation of Britain in there is embarrasing.

Wow. You can tell that. You must be very special being able to gauge the mood of the nation just like that.

Those stupid ethnics eh, being manipulated by evil liberals. Not a genuine concern amongst them, oh no, not at all. How glad that they must be that they've got you there to set them straight.

Cock.

 

[RaverDrew]

Those stupid ethnics... blah blah

Your words NOT mine

You are sick

 

[pengaleng]

errr.... isn't everyone an 'ethnic' something or other?

 

[danny la rouge]

I'm ethnic.

 

[han]

errr.... isn't everyone an 'ethnic' something or other?

Yes, we all come from Africa, if you go right back..

 

[pengaleng]

well iirc I'm 0.09% black so that would make sense

 

[tarannau]

Your words NOT mine

You are sick

I'm not really am I Drew, considering I'm more than a bit of a Heinz 57 myself. I think you may need to understand sarcasm

And get a fucking grip - don't grandstand and pretend to know what other people are thinking, just to add another lazy jibe about 'liberals' and some ludicrous the 'white working class have got it just as bad' posturing.

Yes, I think the reaction is slightly hysterical, but I'm pissed off that you're belittling people's genuine concerns about the actions in the house. Like it or not, some folks who've experienced bullying and racism in their lives will recognise just how depressingly familiar this whole sorry state of affairs is. Don't try and tell folks what they're feeling, let alone tell them that they're being manipulated by others.

Can't you understand why your point-scoring and pettiness on this thread is more than a little offensive.

 

[dirtysanta]

I'm as black as they come.

'Indecisive Dave' from the Fast Show

I don't think she's quite this dumb though after seeing her talking Shilpa (end of Monday's show) into believing why the group turned against her - lots of bullshit and manipulation there. And little backing down from the need to belittle Shilpa... quite a sustained attack I thought.

 

[Lisarocket]

More from reverse ferret over on DS

"the three people going in thing has just been abandoned temporarily, i'll let you know when a decision has been made about if it's ever going to happen.
as for the other questions - good grief no, endemol are not ignoring it. it's a huge deal. but while they put on a million viewers with this 'race row' and are congratulating themselves over it, they are panicking a bit now that it's gone global and been raised in the HoC!
early nomination steer - i can't say yet (sorry) but it should sort out the problem, put it that way"

Oooh. Jade has just come out of the diary room (noms) looking really pissed off. Do you reckon they have told her she can't nominate?

Lack of irony prize to you.

Can't you understand that the editors of all the media stations, newspapers, tv producers are creaming their pants at the fuss that has been kicked up over this ?

I'm not belittling any of the debatable bullying or racism that is going on in some poxy tv show in Elstree. I think it's pretty minor in the scheme of things, and that people should be allowed to make there minds up about what they see on the tele. Shilpa is more than capable of complaining to the producers if anything really out of order is affecting her that badly.

What pisses me off is the hysterical outrage kicked off by (yes I know you hate the term) the liberal pc brigade. What purpose have they served with there stirring, campaigns to get the program taken off air, and the whipping up of lynch mobs ? Very productive. Well done to them.

The newspapers are laughing, I bet the papers are flying off the shelves. The editors are getting some "TV Gold" footage as well.

Call me a cynic

 

[tarannau]

Will you concede that everyday people may be genuinely offended by what's happening in the house rather than falling for some media conspiracy.

And if so, will you give the arse-numbing tedious 'it's about the liberals' nonsense a fucking rest would you. You don't have to keep repeating your pet hobbyhorse on every thread - it's no more perceptive an interpretation of events than it has been on your umpteen other threads.

Credit some people with intelligence - if you can see through these evil pc liberals don't you think some of us 'ethnics' (note the sarcasm please) can too?

 

[RaverDrew]

Lack of irony prize to you.

Sorry where is the irony in distorting what I've said ?

It is sick to twist peoples words for the effect of cheap petty pointscoring.
