Apparently tonight's show makes for uncomfortable viewing. It got very heated yesterday. I watched a bit of the live feed last night and to say Jade was nasty would be an understatement. It may not be racism but it is bullying to the extreme.

Jade is just being a bitch, an evil twisted bitch, and so is Jo. The younger one is being racist. Making little comments, and doing little things, that not everyone might notice, but I deffinatly think her face, and the fact she washed her hands straight after, is racist. Making out shes 'dirty'. Out of order, get them out. Replace these three, with the new three.

It's all quite exciting and I am quite enjoying the publicity it is all getting; simply because I hope Jade's ''amazing'' career comes crashing back down to earth. She came into the house all smiles, but I think this bad move to go on the show again has finished her career.

And I can bet you my bottom dollar when any of the three bullies are interviewed, or even Shetty herself, Davina McCall, already being branded ''spineless'' by the press, will pretend nothing has happened and she will ignore the fact thousands of people have complained. Her interviewing of Makosi Mumbassa revealed her true nature, in my opinion, and to call her a rubbish interviewer is just the start. The woman is clearly a nasty piece of work herself. She seemed to laugh at Jackie's branding of Shilpa as the ''Indian.'' I also wonder why Dermot O'Leary seems to steer of course when the word racism is mentioned. It's ridiculous. Ok, so it could lead off into debates the C4 could get into trouble about, but surely the best thing for the channel to do is to allow discussion of racism on its shows to prove they are taking it seriously and have noticed it. Otherwise, we feel alienated and that C4 condone racism.

If Ian (H) is so upset by Shilpa's bullying then I am puzzled as to why he cannot voice this?! Is he a man? Same goes for Jermaine, really. But for him, I suppose it is a class issue. He doesn't want to tell the little girls off because they are seemingly beneath his dignity.

On the other hand, I blame Shilpa Shetty herself. She arrived in the house with this haughty attitude in that ''nobody has ever spoken to me like that before.'' If she is so utterly tormented by the show which she describes as ''the most mortifying experience of my life'' then I'm afraid she isn't convincing. Surely she should take a firmer stance and talk to Big Brother other than retreat to the bedroom and have a predictable conversation of whispers with Jermaine Jackson, of all people.

Tonight's Sky EPG describes the epsidoe in some detail, and that there will be a huge argument over a stock cube. I have not seen Channel 4 publish details of the highlights shows on the EPG before, very unusual, and it just adds to the suspicion that this is all helping the channel's ratings. Advertising the fact Shetty is yet again in an argument with Goody is surely the worst thing C4 could do right now?!

According to C4:
Quote:
Big Brother may ask a housemate to leave the House if they behave inappropriately, for example, if they engage in violent or abusive behaviour, or damage the House or its contents.

Ah, but you have to remember Dermot is an employee of Channel 4/Endemol. He's hardly going to say the exact opposite of what the bosses are saying, is he?

i did think when she went in that it would be ironic to end her career at the same place it (arguably) started.

Yes, very ironic. Tragic, even. It's even more irnoic how Danielle Lloyd once was an advocate for an anti-bullying campaign in her local area, as was Jade Goody. Taking a look at the Times of India website, the Shetty storyline is quite high in the running order and makes me wonder what kind of reputation the UK is getting abroad.

Live stream: Jade's really getting her bitching head on now about Shilpa!

"I don't even know who she is, I know many Bollywood actresses but Shilpa doesn't spring to mind"


Oh, I bet Jade is always watching Bollywood movies!


On that note, some random media commentator on Sky News kept referring back to when "Jade won Big Brother" - with no one correcting him that she didn't actually win. She actually came last in the final!


this is disgraceful tv, why have BB rewarded these bigots with alcohol, you can tell what Endemol are saying to the viewers who have complained, and that is fook u!
yawn


so I take it you hate indians then Evil or Very Mad


Good grief Harshy. With an attitude like that no wonder the press are all over this "racism" row.

That's the most ludicrous thing I've ever heard.


Well I was pissed off admitabbly yesterday, anyway I am not watching this show, however it looks like C4 do seem to be saying racism is going on, but overt as they put it.

It has to be said Shilpa hasn't helped herself, she's acted too Indian I think(admittably she admits the whole experience is a learning curve), been too bossy over the cooking, why for fook sake was she so domineering in the kitchen, if it were me I'd love to tuck into fish finger sarnies!

Having said that, Jade, Jo, Cleo, Danielle and Jack should hang their heads in shame for giving a bad image of Britain.

They all say they are all part of a management company, apparantly Jade is part of it as well as Cleo.

Cleo? As in she hasn't done much to help the situation?

There had been a "cultural and class clash" between three other housemates and the Indian star, the channel said.
