Yeah, Craig's issues go a lot deeper than his feelings for Anthony. His friend who appeared on BBLB last night said she was concerned about him.
Most of us have been in the 'unrequited love' situation, and sooner or later we look back and realise we have made a bit of a fool of ourselves. Craig has done that on national television, and a sensitive person like him may find that hard to deal with.

I'll wager that this isn't the first time Craig has behaved this way, nor will it be the last.
It *would* be awful to display this roller-coaster of love on TV, but that's what BB is all about. You could easily (should you want to) psychoanalyse Craig's behaviour. It's not unusual for a gay man to behave this way with a new and attractive straight friend - and even more excusable when locked in a house with the subject of your affections.
I've done it; and I'll do it again. I'm a decade older, and to the best of my knowledge I don't have cameras on me 24/7.
Craig will be fine.

Not normal - but this isn't a normal scenario.
In the last few minutes, Big Brother showed Anthony tangibly squirming at Craig's incessant 'penis-size' chatter.
The discomfort for the viewer is huge because we are evesdropping on Craig's obvious flirting - but he is only 20 and that's what some 20 years olds behave like.
In the real world of course he would be unlikely to be spending so many consecutive hours with Anthony, so these awkward moments would be spread over a much larger time - surely?

So that "They're evil Anthony, they're out to get us Anthony" stuff was normal, lovelorn behaviour?

I think Derek and Eugene are both the only sensible people in the house! Just a shame they're both up for nomination - typical.
Craig gets jealous the moment anyone even goes near Anthony its pathetic! He now thinks Eugene fancies Anthony. Why the guy is still in there drives me insane.

Yes but I still would.
I'd go elsewhere for stimulating conversation, obviously.

The only thing Anthony deserves is to be shot in the head.
He is the most boring, unwatchable housemate of them all. There's nothing remotely watchable about him, and his personality is entirely dependent upon the other housemates' actions. He's as thick as pig muck, too.

And if Ofcom have any sense, they'll throw the book at C4. They won't of course, but this is just the latest in a succession of lamentable incidents in this sad excuse for a programme. Surely now the time has come to put this animal down.
The IBA would have evicted Big Brother years ago.

They say that Channel 4 recieved 80-90 complaints, even though it was shown pre-watershed (i think thats the right way to say it) and the announcer warned viewers.
