When I heard about this I just had to see it for myself. Hilarious and awful. Angela Bowie is far from a saint - her son, director Duncan Jones, has not wanted to be around her since he was thirteen - but ol' New York is still an idiot.

 

And that's Danniella Westbrook? The years have taken a toll.

It was a simple mistake on Tiffany's part though. I hate how they all immediately brushed her with the 'aggressive' stick and now they are scared of her. 

 

John's sly ass chicken comment didn't go unnoticed either. Funny seeing as he was bitching about Winston's comments about the LGBT community a week ago. 

Of course it was a mistake. New York's problem is she has no concept of how to back down from acting foolish, so it becomes this ludicrous farce where she tries to put the onus on the grieving old lady to salvage her fragile self-esteem. I think everyone on this show seems absolutely ridiculous and remarkably unlikable at a glance, but really.

F--K EVERY LAST ONE OF THEM

Oh Lord. Big Brother is gonna be a hot ass mess tonight....

 

 

OMG, these promos are sooo overdramatic and slowly paced   I'm dead

F--K EVERY LAST ONE OF THEM

What on earth happened?

What on earth happened?

Pretty much every one in the house turned on Tifany. Angie found out David Bowie died but decided to keep it to herself. Tiffany saw she was upset and naturally wanted to know what was wrong and comfort her. Angie then said David died.. Tiffany thought she was talking about David the houseguest and got hysterical, screaming bc Angie kept insisting it wasnt a joke and that he just died of cancer. This got the attention of everyone else and  eventually Angie said, it was David her ex husband, not the houseguest. Everyone rushed to comfort Angie and turned on Tiffany for making an honest mistake, when in actuality its Angie's fault for not being clear.

 

They then said they dont feel safe or comfortable with Tiffany in the house and that she needs to leave. She pretty much said F all of ya'll bc Im not going anywhere. She is pretty much astrocized now and by herself bc they dont want to have anything to do with her. To their credit, Nancy and Christopher both approached her when things calmed down and were at least human. The rest are acting like she's some crazy dangerous person that they are done with. John is the worst, leading the pack to get rid of her. The treatment of her tonight was absolutely disgusting. She's a scapegoat and they are trying to brand her as the villian when in actuality she did nothing wrong.

f--king bastard. He thinks he's real slick. I havent liked him from day one. Phony mothaf--ka. He's playing up this heroic leader role for the audience but I see right through him

@Cheap21, boo, I had to lay down off that sh-t. It got me heated. I am glad that Tiffany let them know off bat that she ain't go nowhere without them voting her out. She put them b-tches on notices. 

 

Kristina (with her husband humping ass), Daniella, and John need to go.

I'm going to hell...but the comedy of errors about which David died was hilarious.

 

+1. That's exactly Tiffany's problem. She tried to turn it around onto Angie, when what she should have done is just said she made an honest mistake and that Angie made an honest mistake and what a tragedy the whole thing is. Tiffany kept saying it was Angie's fault, which it was in a way as she wasn't clear, but she had also just been told the father of her son had died. Tiffany could have totally salvaged herself by being slightly humble about how off the wall she reacted. However, Tiffany was clearly in shock and she calmed down a lot after Big Brother intervened. And when she calmed down she got logical. Nobody could have calmed down that quickly given the shock Tiffany was in. 

 

John is the worst though, with Kristina right behind him...they're awful and they ganged up immensely on Tiffany. I don't think the rest of the house actually did gang up. I think most of them were in total shock. 

 

Nancy, Christopher and Gemma all showed Tiffany compassion. Nancy is particularly fair. I loved Gemma's Essex wisdom at the end of the episode, telling Tiffany that if she doesn't calm down she'll "do [herself] like a kipper." Gemma is like a 75 year old hardened East End woman - like a character out of EastEnders. 

 

Sorry to see Jonathan go because he's such a pampered princess and I liked seeing him with Gemma. Talk about a weakling though.

@Nothin'ButAttitude I got so heated as well and I never let this show get to me. Im glad Tiff stood up for herself to and didnt back down although Im sure they will be coming for her next week when she doesnt have immunity

Yes it was a comedy of errors nad I was dying over here laughing. Tiff's reaction was so over the top and was a riot. It almost became the funniest BB episode until it got ugly.

 

I hated Gemma saying she wanted her shoes back. What a bitch. She did show some compassion later but she did it with a hint of shade. You are right in that the house didnt gang up but they followed like sheep. John led the pack and they just followed along with him. I dont know who made him ambassador of the house bc he then relayed it to Tiff that everyone is scared of her and wants her gone.

 

Im not sad to see Jon go. I hate when people threaten to leave and never do so Im glad he did. IA with the BOTS panel that this wasnt spontaneous. He had it planned from before he got into the house. He's a drama queen and wanted to make a spectacle

Edited January 13, 20169 yr by Cheap21

A lot of people are calling out BOTS too b/c they feel that Jonathan shouldn't've gotten an interview on that show seeing as he is considered a "walker." I agree even though he did make an argument that Tiffany is the most deserving winner while majority of the others are not. 

 

I feel like these next few episodes are gonna be so uncomfortable to watch as we have to watch Tiffany becoming docile so she won't remain the target. Such full of sh-t. Plus, I am not eager to see Tiffany in the task today where she's the puppet and John is her puppet master. I saw a clip where she practically was pleading with him that she wanted to stay and make things right. It was like watching some slavery type mess as John remained aloof to her. They better be glad this sh-t airs only in the UK b/c there would be an uproar here and Big Brother and many of the houseguests would catch hell. 

 

But I knew John was gonna become a prick on this show. After the Winston incident and everyone pitying him, I knew he was gonna land in the power position, which he'll most likely stay. Unlike BBUS and BBCAN, where production would knock him off his ass and shift the power quickly, it rarely happens on this show. Look at last season. Austin and Natasha were both twats but the audience ate the crap fed by the press, Emma, and Rylan that they landed in the final three. John's lame ass will probably land in the final three as well. 

 

Once Tiffany goes, I am done. 

John's chicken statement is under investigation with Ofcom now.

That is hilarious. OfCom does have to investigate most complaints and often they come to nothing...but it reflects poorly on John and makes him a liability going forward in his career.
