Who needs cocoa when you've got a cheeky Sauv Blanc before bed?

Anighty night all. Keep safe and don't look at the moon through glass. 🌒

Nightie Night told

I was thinking to myself earlier that I bet Ann's had more hugs this year than the last 40 years at least if not more.

I wonder what Shane J will think of Andrew if he watches the whole show back?

picklemepopcorn · 31/01/2018 22:49

I teresting link. I was looking for something about Ann giving her fee to charity, but found this instead.

haven't had a chance to watch it either live or on you tube so will have to try tomorrow afternoon.

From reading some of the latter posts and making an inference from their references to "defender of unborn child", though, anyone who's saying that Ann is reality tv game player and in it for the win... not something you say if you're 48 hours off the prize and trying to game the BB UK 2018 audience surely Confused

sheldonesque · 31/01/2018 23:46

The only self righteous bitch on there is ShaneJ.

If he could drop his poor little persecuted me by big bad nasty Ann one man mouthpiecefest as quickly as he managed to accidentally drop his skirt on his debut, then he would be a more likeable and better man.

His sulky little petulant face is getting right on my norklettes.

Enough of the bullshit already, I'm as tired of it as Amanda was.

That, and the whiny voice. Sadly I think he will win.
And I have to get this out of my system... The guy on CBBOTS tonight, towards the end. Okay, it's reality tv and all that, but really...

helenoftroyville · 01/02/2018 07:03

I really don't want Ann that win, on the basis that I feel she would be a terrible role model for youngsters with her outdated judgements, a 'defender of the unborn' she says. Her antiquated views are very damaging and I really wouldn't want anyone like that around my children growing up. How could someone like that win a popularity competition like BB?

MrsJayy · 01/02/2018 07:20

Jim Davidson won Steven bear won he had several dry humps from chloe khan. A girl who pissed the bed when drunk won colleen nolan smoked fags and not much else won, soooo why not Ann?

MrsJayy · 01/02/2018 07:22

Btw I don't want her to win but she is in with a chance like everybody else, clearly ch5 want Shourtney to win.

mirialis · 01/02/2018 08:08

I can't see the problem with Ann winning. What do you think is going to happen - Britain's youth are going to turn anti-abortion and anti-gay marriage because Ann Widdecombe won CBB? No chance.

I would quite like her to win actually but it's surely going to be Shane.

picklemepopcorn · 01/02/2018 08:10

Given the choice of someone who disapproves of certain behaviours and holds certain beliefs but treats people the same anyway, and someone who stirs and dramatises and plays favourites, I know who I'd go for.

futuristic1 · 01/02/2018 08:14

*I'm not sure if Ann thinks she's on a higher level Missrabbit but she definitely believes the views she subscribes to are the one true way, while at the same time acknowledging that she's out of step with the majority and that her views aren't populist.

She's certainly known that she's alone in her opinions in the house and isn't stupid enough to think they're mainstream outside of the house. Point being, she doesn't care.*

In what world is that an acceptable approach to everyday living?

If none of us cared what other people thought, and we just did what we believed in, and demonstrated the full-blown 100% intolerance that that approach to others actually amounts to, where would we be?

The rubbish Ann and Amanda put into Jess's (fake) head about "why should you care what other people think?" - is literally rubbish.

You should care about what other people think, because if you don't, then they won't care about what you think, and bad shit will truly happen - to you!

People like Ann (and Jess and Amanda) can only be free to hold those views because the rest of society holds in place the rules which prevent other bonkers people from also "doing what they want and believe in".

Don't take too much advantage of peoples' willingness to defend your right to think nonsense by then choosing not to care and respect what those other people think.

AMANDA IS ON LORRAINE KELLY.

Craftylady28 · 01/02/2018 09:14

Sole last year I did SW and put on 3lb in the first week - ie the week that you should realistically lose 5lb.
After another couple of weeks and putting on more weight, I realised it wasn't for me, as I don't have an off-switch when I'm eating, so "eat until you're satisfied" wasn't ever going to happen. Therefore unlimited pasta was just another excuse for me to gorge Sad

I've done so much better by filling the house with fresh and delicious things, and ignoring the calories/fat in them. eg I love avocados, yet they are classed as something to avoid when dieting as they're high in oil/calories. However, if I have an avocado with a couple of boiled eggs for lunch, I feel great but don't really think about snacking in the afternoon because it satisfied me so much. In other words, it's not all about being "full" for me, it's about really enjoying what I eat for meals, then I'm not as likely to go looking for a quick-fix treat later.

Sorry, that went on a bit...

BMW6 · 01/02/2018 09:18

I'd like Anne to win just to see the look on Scary Eyes face........

Craftylady28 · 01/02/2018 09:22

I've finally caught up with the last few nights' episodes, and I don't really get why a lot of you are so cross at Shane J - yes, he's done some not-great things, but jeez, if I had cameras on me 24/7, I hate to think what people would think of me, when it's edited down to 1 hour of footage!

Re the mansplaining, I KNOW that it's nuts that the 3 ladzzzz learned feminism from mansplaining, BUT that's fairly realistic these days - so many ladzzzzzzzzzz think of feminism as a bad word, and the minute a woman tries to explain any of it, they just don't understand. So actually, if they picked up some things from Shourtney, then surely that's not all bad.

At the start of CBB, almost everyone posting here was very pro-Shourtney and pro-Malika. Malika changed as she was so homesick, and spent time in her bed when others were having fun (or maybe she was out of the house completely, do we think...?) Shourtney hasn't changed much - still having reasonable chats, not going off on one when someone annoys him, etc. Shourtney joined in with the bantz, but all 3 ladz said that Shourtney told them when they were going too far. OK, he does some annoying things, but so does every single person in the house.

mirialis · 01/02/2018 09:31

Crafty, we don't know what they actually picked up from Shane other than them saying they learnt more about feminism from him. We saw him say don't victim blame when they were all talking about Trump/Weinstein and we saw him say we women might feel emasculated by having doors opened for us. I can't see that the lads behaviour or language with regard to women improved at all after that, indeed Andrew seem to get progressively worse.

Shourtney has not gone off on one when someone has annoyed him but I would find it preferable if he did, rather than going off for one to one chats about the person rather than with the person.

MrsJayy · 01/02/2018 09:49

Shane J was quite happy to cosy up to Andrew while he was spouting bile about hanging out of jess or he would smash that when talking about Ashley reduciing women to a hole for his pleasure. Shane J didn't give 2 hoots about feminisim then as his fragile ego was being stroked by Andrews snuggles Shourtney is imo a hypocrite when it comes to his own pleasure.

MrsJayy · 01/02/2018 09:51

Shane basically fancied Andrew and all his morals and principles went out the window when it came to Andrew Angry

SinisterBumFacedCat · 01/02/2018 10:00

miralis to blame Shane for the ladz not listening to him is just another deflection, why not blame the ladz themselves?

And not everyone thrives on confrontation, some people find the best way to get their point across is to talk to other people individually. It doesn't necessarily mean they are sneaky, sly people. Maybe they just don't want to have the usual boring BB slanging match.

mirialis · 01/02/2018 10:08

I'm not blaming Shane for the lads not listening! I'm saying we don't actually know what he said as those were the only things we saw wrt Shane educating the lads about feminism. He didn't pull Andrew up for saying "I'd smash that" about Ashley other than to be a bit "wow, G has only just left" and "I'm not being a jealous girlfriend, I support your seed sowing."

If you are talking to other people about someone, how are you getting your point across to that person? In this instance it didn't work at all because he'd been clocked for having the chats on the side about Ann and that wound Amanda up and she was upset after their clash and told Ann that it had been about her. Thus the next day, when Shane came to approach Ann she said, "I hope you're not coming to mount a challenge". At which point they made peace, fine, but no point actually made to the Ann at all. The point is being made to the camera, not Ann.

SinisterBumFacedCat · 01/02/2018 10:21

If I've had problems with people at work or friends my first point of call is to speak to someone else about, not because I'm playing up to whatever the real world equivalent of "cameras" is but because a) I don't like confrontation and b) I find talking to someone else can give me a better perspective on how to deal with the person I have a problem with, especially if I'm not that close to them. I don't do this because I am sneaky or sly, trying to plant seeds of dissent in other people's minds. I think Shane J is closer to Amanda and Wayne than he is to Ann so he chose to talk to them instead. I can see why he's getting riled by Ann if she's talking like she did last night in the diary room last night.

mirialis · 01/02/2018 10:33

That would not go down well in my work place - a chat with one person about another, fine, but multiple chats with multiple people (Wayne, Ashley, Malika, Amanda), no does not look good to the rest of the team. Hence he got 6 nominations.
