New thread and still wondering why there has been no apology or acknowledgement of the incident in Loose Women last week.

And I wish someone would do a round up of the polls, I saw one which had over 220,000 votes and can’t find it now. It was, as they all are, in favor of the programme ending or firing those involved.

Twitter now saying Coleen Nolan was paid £10,000 plus expenses for a cancer campaign (yet she mocked Kim for saying she went on LW for money).

I love Twitter! Can you tell!

Just read what CN was saying under her breath as KW was talking about her childhood as I couldn't hear it in the show - 'She's going to cry in a minute' and 'We had this every day in the house'. Awful behaviour and for some odd reason I expected Linda R and JSP to stand up to her. I do think Linda was being genuine when she tried to comfort Kim, though.

PrickWhittington · 02/09/2018 21:43

This bullying incident is all over Twitter

Yes - though the ITV/ LW bosses seem to have missed it all as still no acknowledgement let alone apology to either KW or their viewers Hmm

the public are absolutely and overwhelmingly on Kim’s side

As it should be too.

I've read a bit about Kim's early life. Just the fact that she gave birth to a stillborn baby boy, totally alone and had to bury him in a park, is enough to cause severe mental scarring, however on top of that, she suffered a horribly abusive childhood. I think the fact that she has worked hard, been successful, maintained successful relationships and is very highly thought of by many who have worked with her, shows what a strong and kind lady she is. She is, however, still to this day traumatised by her past, which is totally understandable, and it does explain why she behaves the way she does, especially when she feels she is being bullied. I used to love her on How Clean is Your House. Many of the people on there had a lot of deep emotional problems which lead to their homes getting in a state. I thought both her an Aggie were very caring and compassionate towards them and tried their best to really help them to improve their lives. If that is Kim's talent, then that is a very noble one to have and is far more worthy than the Nolans 'talent' of singing dodgy backing vocals on a few records many years ago.

Pretty sure that was mentioned back in the first thread

Anyone still on wiki watch? Grin

laddersandsnakes · 02/09/2018 21:56

Beyoncé she ain’t!

If this big announcement she’s trying to flog on the back of all this publicity is some singing gig, she’ll look a fool.

redshoeblueshoe · 02/09/2018 22:08

I've just been discussing this with DH, I said CN, JSP, LN, and LR should have all been sacked, plus who ever set it up.

What I think will happen is that the wanker who set it up will get a massive pay rise.

NancyDonahue · 02/09/2018 22:11

This must be the big announcement?

Dear lord. Looking for a pre Christmas show. Have already decided against "It doesnt get tougher than this. An evening with Greg Wallace" and here's another reject.

laddersandsnakes · 02/09/2018 22:24

What? That’s it?

🙄

marants · 02/09/2018 22:25

It can’t be it, it can’t be! She’s been bigging it up all week!

Hahahaha😂

Will the petition reach 20,000 by midnight?

(I’m on petition watch 😁🤗)

laddersandsnakes · 02/09/2018 22:31

Never Too Late to say you’re sorry Coleen.

laddersandsnakes · 02/09/2018 22:31

She probably thought the LW viewers would go!

redshoeblueshoe · 02/09/2018 22:34

Marants - its going fast, I would be surprised if it doesn't hit 20k by midnight

laddersandsnakes · 02/09/2018 22:36

She’s going to Worthing

worthingtheatres.co.uk/show/coleen-nolan-the-never-too-late-tour/

Publicity starts off “it’s been 40 years since...” 😂

laddersandsnakes · 02/09/2018 22:38

And Wellsprings Leisure Centre in Taunton if anyone’s interested.

Magicmonster · 02/09/2018 22:42

I’m in two minds about this. Some of Colleen’s reactions were not great, but at the same time I think some of the anti colleen sentiment since it happened almost amounts to bullying against her!

Justmuddlingalong · 02/09/2018 22:54

Oh Coleen. I think you'll find it waaaay too late.

I said in the last thread, I wonder if this is going to be the line CN/ LW are going to take in response. Poor -Colon- Coleen. I can already see her sitting there, all misty eyed, while some of the comments are read out..

If so, some are playing right into their hands. Abhor her behaviour, yes, but personal attacks could be seen as bullying which as well as being unpleasant detracts from the original issue.

redshoeblueshoe · 02/09/2018 22:57

Magic - don't you think Coleen was complicit in this ?

CN has always been a bully, didn't she publicly bully one of her sisters

superfly2018 · 02/09/2018 23:01

Who was heading up the show the day KW was on?
Does Kaye Adams not work on it anymore? I thought she did?

5minutes · 02/09/2018 23:02

😂 at the comments on the Mirror page breaking her “big news” 😂

This is going to keep me amused until bedtime.
