Big Brother 2008 - General Discussion

i do agree with everyone saying Jen was being really over the top with her reactions, but i also think Rex was really winding them up because he quite obviously wasn't sorry and was smirking away and this was infuriating her even further.

and also, omg, what was with Darnell totally kicking off like that?! it was scary and seemed quite out of character.

and finally, a note to Mario and Lisa- they seemed like the vaguely responsible mum and dad of the series last night! ok, so people might say Mario was playing up to the cameras to look like a hero or whatever, but in a situation like that he really did diffuse some of the tension in the boys room. and every now and again i heard Lisa pop up as the voice of reason in the other room.

Just been watching it on Channel 4
What is Jen doing?! She must have repeated herself about a million times!
Rex said sorry... what else was he meant to do? All she did was cry uncontrollably which got everyone wound up. Silly girl. Grow up.
I lost respect for Bex aswell for getting up in Mohamads face like that. There was no need at all!
As for Dennis! I'm glad BB made the right decision and threw him out. Spitting is the most disgusting vulgar thing that anyone could do and there is just no way it can be excused!
Dale just got on my nerves. He's so agressive and angry.
Fair play to Mario. Even though I think he can be a creep I had a great deal of respect for him for the way he acted in the situation.
If all the housemates reacted in the same way as Kat, Rachel, Mario and even Lisa... I doubt any of that would have happened.

The first chants btw, I could have sworn they were saying "Get Dale out" and the second chants were "Get Jen out"..we can only hope eh? :)

Bye bye Sylvia :thumbsup:

gutted that Sylvia went. that's 4 phone calls i wasted eviciting mohammed. the public piss me off - they always vote out the characters and leave the boring *******s in. once again mohammed ends up playing the victim and gets the sympathy vote.

rex and mohammed are total morons, why even bother being there when they know no one likes them? their days are numbered, it's obviously going to be them two up for nomination this week.

i'm on jen's side with all of this, it's the principle of things. rex had no right to ruin her painting, it doesnt matter what it was it was the fact he disrepected something of hers when she didn't warrant it. good on her friends for defending her.

I think Darnell should have been removed, how agressive was he!? far more than dennis! Yeah dennis spat in Mohammed's face but it looked as if Darnell was proper going to beat up Dale and Stuart when he started shouting off.

Good episode last night, the ****s starting to hit the fan, and Alex can't be blamed for this one for a change! Just gutted Sylvia went...

I really hope that Mo doesn't go up for eviction this week, if he does i think we all need to make sure he doesn't go.
All he did was just try and stop it by saying' Its just a painting', which is true there was no need for the whole argument. Jen was being absolutly pathetic about it.

Poor Mo, Bex was the one who came in his face, sqauaring up to him. She kept going back to try and start something. And Mo didn't react.


This week i think they should all go up because of their actions
Lets only hope that Jen & Dale will be gone.

Dennis will be questioned by police after spitting in Mohamed’s face.

Channel 4 and the show's producers Endemol are said to be cooperating with police, according to a report in The Sun.

A spokeswoman for Channel 4 said: "We are aware that they are looking into the matter."

Meanwhile, a source from Borehamwood Police Station, near the Big Brother house, confirmed that spitting at someone classifies as common assault.

The source added: "We’ve been speaking back and forth to Big Brother and Endemol. The chief inspector is looking into it. We will look at the footage to see if any offence has been committed and we’ll take the appropriate action."

Dennis was removed from the house yesterday. If charged, he could face a fine or six months in prison.

six months in prison for spitting? has this country gone mad! I must be the only one here not to see spitting in someone's face as that big a deal? sorry but where i live and what i've seen in life, it's common... :searchme:

I just caught the repeatthis morning, now I dunno if its been cut a bit cos it was shown in the morning but it was really random, Dennis came out of no where, I mean one minute he wasnt involved and the next he was :confused:

I'm starting to like Mario now, he's becoming a bit of a legend. Him and Lisa really helped difuse the situation last night.

The group really is divided now, this week's nominations are going to be VERY interesting.

On Big Mouth and on the DS forums, Jen is really getting a lot of flack for the argument. But i don't think that's fair - she's done nothing wrong. Smug smary Rex was in the wrong. As was agressive Darnell and gobby Stuart/Dale/Bex. I think everyone over-reacted, having had a bit too much to drink.

Will be interesting to see how things pan out this week in the house.

rex was in the wrong for slightly smudging her piccie BUT she went totally over the top and he did apologize and still she went on and on and on!

i agree about mario, although he is a pain i dread to think what could happen in that house without him in there to calm everything down!

I hate to say it but Mario is starting to grow on me too.. :o He did well controlling the situation as did Lisa and they really are starting to make me laugh with some of their comments, even if I don't like them as people - some of their deluded comments do make me chuckle. :D I think they should be kept in for the entertainment value... even though I don't really like them.

I am glad the police are investigating, sorry but Dennis's spitting was completely out of order. I really do worry about our society when I actually watch this now ... Jen cries uncontrollably over a picture, yet she doesn't seem to acknowledge her own child that she has left on the outside.. Rex was in the wrong for smudging the picture, but Jen played up to it and overexaggerated it in an attempt to be attention seeking even after Rex apologised in an attempt to gain sympathy and it did work.. I think Rex was smirking as he knew how ridiculous the whole drama was over a smudge on a picture.. he probably knew she was overreacting and smirked, I didn't blame him..the whole drama was bizarrely quite funny as a mountain was made out of a molehill! If I was in there, I would have told Jen to get a grip lol! Mohammed is more of a man than Dale or Dennis could ever be because he didn't react aggressively, he was only trying to make a point and he didn't react when Dennis spat on him and if that happened to me, I would have reacted. Mo is more of a man as he stepped back and didn't retaliate.

I am gutted that Sylvia has gone though - I thought her interview was great with Davina. She definetly should have stayed. In a way, I wish Mo went, then atleast he wouldn't have to put up with Jen or Dale any longer.

just watching it now, how much of a tool is dale? rex said sorry (not very convincingly, but anyway - it was a sorry) and he went and blew it up again, sylva is a twit too

it was sorted then everyone got involved and jen milked it for everything
