To think collene Nolan isn't a nice person

Just watching the loose women with the woman from how clean is your house, I think she's being treated so unfairly. Shame on ITV for putting this stuff out, it's lower than Jerome Kyle!

I thought yesterday was massively damaging for Colleen as it did come across as goading/bullying. Kim W is a difficult, but clearly vulnerable, woman and having her in a situation where she felt victimised was never going to end well. Ultimately the responsibility lies with the show who set it up though

Colleen either has real boundary issues with her son or considers any publicity to be worthwhile as there has been an article recently where he complained she had pulled him away from kissing a girlfriend to hug him and had told another "He'll never be fully yours"

cheesemongery · 30/08/2018 15:20

Didn't have an opinion of her until yesterday, after watching a clip and seeing the tweets I think she comes across as a nasty, smug, bullying bitch.

Took me back 30 years to the girls at school and couldn't watch it again.

I had no opinion of Kim either, but I felt desperately sorry for her.

@Shmithecat The only time I have ever voted in Big Brother was for Jim Davidson. Linda was so vile she made him seem likeable

FASH84 · 30/08/2018 15:26

Kim was an absolute nightmare on CBB, but Coleen is no angel either

TheQueef · 30/08/2018 15:26

Cheesy I agree wholeheartedly.

Yesterday was triggering and I think some don't see it because they've never been victims of this kind of bullying.
I watched cbb with Kim and it was bullying. Kim's fight or flight kicked in then with Colleen and Nicola you saw it happen.

LW completely set Kim up here and should be ashamed of capital ising on Kim's discomfort.

LeftRightCentre · 30/08/2018 15:27

They are all vile.

ShatnersWig · 30/08/2018 15:27

Huge thread about this already

www.mumsnet.com/Talk/am_i_being_unreasonable/3349973-Kim-Woodburn

Vast majority of people backing Kim (even if they don't like her) and over 3,300 complaints to Ofcom within 24 hours.

Bugjune · 30/08/2018 15:32

I got the impression that Kim's eye is down to plastic surgery, I could be way off with that though.

Yep, way off... www.mirror.co.uk/3am/celebrity-news/kim-woodburn-opens-up-health-7735090

Shmithecat · 30/08/2018 15:32

@IvorHughJarrs same! She needled at him constantly, picking for a fight, then when he handed her arse on a plate to her (Frank Carson's dressing room 😂😂), she'd go crying to other housemates, 'my dead husband' 'My breast cancer' blah blah blah. Amazing how she can pull those emotional stunts to reconcile her abhorrent behaviour, but KWs shitty shitty early life is just boring and repetitive? Those Nolans are just a pair of cunts. 'Scuse my French.

yesterdaysgone · 30/08/2018 15:33

That Coleen herself might have had a tough childhood (she didn't, not on the same scale as Kim anyway) or be "in pain" doesn't excuse the fact that she's a bully. Kim isn't really a very nice person but she certainly isn't a bully. People should stop excusing bullies.

When Linda Nolan asked what talents Kim had, she answered "what's yours". Linda then went on about being in the Nolans. As a backing singer maybe. It was only Bernie that had any talent.

businessModel · 30/08/2018 15:39

@TheQueef

So if you have additional needs it's fine to hire a hooker or were your attempting to be PC / woke?

I'm pretty sure that despite being a bit dyslexic, you're still breaking the law by buying a woman's body.

firehousedog1 · 30/08/2018 15:40

If this sets the path for loose woman to be scrapped then happy days. Programmes like this do woman no favours at all.

Leesa65 · 30/08/2018 15:41

Is Bernie the sister who sadly died ? I did like her .

I didn't care about either party til yesterday but the two Nolans came across terribly in the clips I saw. Just terribly. There's never an excuse for an adult bullying another adult, nor is there an excuse for deliberately goading someone already upset.

TheQueef · 30/08/2018 15:45

@businessmodel no additional needs isn't about being woke, he doesn't need his Mummy making arrangements for him.

And if you wanted to pick holes watch the clip.

DameJulie · 30/08/2018 15:46

Believe it or not but The Nolans were a very popular group when I were a lass. Bernie (RIP) was the most talented - fantastic in Blood Brothers.

Coleen and Linda were vile to Kim.

RibbonAurora · 30/08/2018 15:46

gottastopeatingchocolate Interesting idea that we shouldn't discuss anybody who is potentially a mner but since, literally, anyone with access to the internet and a keyboard could potentially be a mner that's going to kinda limit discussion around here don't you think? Unless you mean we should afford CN the same anonymity when we discuss her as we might our MIL or CF neighbour?

So, for example this thread would be headed:

"To think this TV presenter isn't a nice person? "

And then the OP would read:

"Just watching that programme aimed at women on the tv with the woman from a show about cleaning your home, I think she's being treated so unfairly. Shame on this tv channel for putting this stuff out, it's lower than that other male tv presenter!"

Nah. If CN is a mner she's just gonna have to take her lumps like any other goady fucker on here.

yesterdaysgone · 30/08/2018 15:47

Yes Leesa65 she was. So sad, i don't think they'd have had the success they had without her. She had a lovely voice.

businessModel · 30/08/2018 15:48

@TheQueef

You mentioned a son with no additional needs. The only reason for you writing this is if you thought it had an effect on whether buying a woman's body for sex is ok or not.

Please clarify.

ManicUnicorn · 30/08/2018 15:48

Linda managed to make me feel sorry for Jim Davidson. No mean feat that.

TheQueef · 30/08/2018 15:51

According to you the only reason Business but as I just clarified for you I mentioned it because his Mum shouldn't be trying to bed her child or have any dealings with it.

Sorry if you are trying to wedge an argument about prostitution in but it wasn't.

Tomatoesrock · 30/08/2018 15:51

I still think she is a nice person, although she did come across as bitchy bully during Kims childhood issues, at the same time people like Kim often try to justify their behavior or place blame on their childhood, I couldn't cope living with Kim for 3 weeks, she would turn anyone against her.
