This may be my last BB thread PWBs... off on holiday at the weekend. Can't believe I'll miss the final final.

Judging by crowd reaction Cameron fav to win. I want Akeem to win.

itswinetime · 26/10/2018 23:35

Twitter seems pro Cameron now and he will get the Lewis and Thomaz votes too so I think he will walk it.

I would rather akeem won but I don't think he can.

itswinetime · 26/10/2018 23:37

Not even going to discuss Lewis in bbots all very odd!

poppym12 · 26/10/2018 23:40

They never discuss the ones who get booted.

Crowd definitely pro Cameron.

HannahnotAgnes · 26/10/2018 23:53

Just catching up now - gutted Lewis has gone. Doesn't seem to make any sense?

itswinetime · 26/10/2018 23:54

There seems to be 2 rumours on twitter re Lewis 1 is he said the P word to akeem
Some say it was accompanied by cunt

Some people are claming to have spoken to his family who have said it wasn't racist it was a comment said in a conversation with Brooke and Cameron

LadyRochfordsSpikedGusset · 26/10/2018 23:55

I want to know. I want to know. Going to sulk throughout Bots.

HannahnotAgnes · 26/10/2018 23:55

Akeem is white surely (remembering his mum & dad on launch night). I think BB didn't want him to win & were waiting for any reason.

BelfortGabbz · 26/10/2018 23:58

He had it in the bag, must be kicking himself.

HannahnotAgnes · 27/10/2018 00:00

I agree Belfort.

itswinetime · 27/10/2018 00:10

It's all very strange to remove him without a warning! It's very odd!

poppym12 · 27/10/2018 00:11

It's got to be something racist or homophobic but I can't imagine Lewis being either of those.

itswinetime · 27/10/2018 00:14

No and I can't understand why not a warning! His apology made it sound like it was a comment open to interpretation! Yet it was bad enough to be removed with no explanation strange

poppym12 · 27/10/2018 00:21

As I said earlier, they wouldn't have him winning as I doubt he'd be as easily manipulated as other winners.

SinisterBumFacedCat · 27/10/2018 00:23

If he said what it was alluded to it's right that he was removed. That's unacceptable. He's also had form for calling people "fucking cunt" during arguments which is fairly aggressive in itself so I don't expect this to be the first warning.

Glad he's gone anyway, he's a narcissistic bully who should not be rewarded for his bad behaviour with attention, it's a shame he was never taught that.

itswinetime · 27/10/2018 00:35

Yes I agree if he has said what is suggested he should of gone but then I think people should still know at the moment it seems to be 50:50 between him being a victim of bb manipulation and unfairly removed and him being and evil racist!

Whatever he said should he released so people can judge him based on facts not speculation!

I didn't like him but I think everyone deserves to be judged based on facts not speculation.

OkPedro · 27/10/2018 02:17

Is akeem white?
Why would anyone think Lewis couldn't be homophobic or racist? Most homophobic and racist people don't advertise it

HannahnotAgnes · 27/10/2018 08:04

I'm pretty sure Akeem is white - he was named after the Eddie Murphy character in Coming to America (Prince Akeem). His mum & dad were both there on launch night & both white.

poppym12 · 27/10/2018 09:49

That's the impression I got too hannah.

Everyone is presuming his removal is due to a racist slur but that's based on reasons for previous removals from the house rather than waiting to hear the facts.

MostlyHungryAgain · 27/10/2018 09:59

Aww Thomasz turned out to be alright in the end.

What was 'the news' that Emma asked Rylan if he had heard about? And he said yes and he was excited but a bit sad?

Akeem is a Beautiful Human and deserves to win. Cian can come a close second though, he is very kind to his fellow BHs. Zoe can leave anytime soon.

Vixxxy · 27/10/2018 11:18

I think Lewis might have called Tomasz a faggot, with venom. See the excuse about it just 'slipping out' or whatever doesn't wash, because words do not just slip out unless you tend to use them in everyday life. Like, I would never ever accidentally call someone the N word because I don't use the word ever.

Its got to be something bad.because BB have been setting him up for the win, every twist the past couple of weeks has been to save him. And they know how much cash he would have brought in with vote to win. They wouldn't just randomly sabotage their cash cow. Hell they even planned to open the win lines really early to try and stop him being evicted. And Lewis fucked himself. Ahh Grin I did think he would end up ejected, but I thought it would be for violence, going too far in an argument or something. Seems very unstable and BB is a bad place for someone like that.

This ^ 100%. Absolutey Vixxy the same could be applied to the racist plane guy and the people now trying to excuse it and say he was just angry not racist. If these words aren't in your regular vocabulary, the don't slip out.

I always wonder on launch night who won't make it to the final due to being kicked out/throwing a strop with the editing. It's a shame Lewis didn't get to answer for his actions in an exit interview. Might have opened his eyes a bit.

I thought Thomasz was easily the best thing on BBOTS last night, he would make a great regular panellist.

itswinetime · 27/10/2018 14:29

So I went down the Twitter well those that were at his home coming are saying it wasn't racist or homophobic and that it was c5 that wanted him removed not bb.

Rebeca the PI from last year has said it was something he said about historical events.

It reminded me of Christopher Biggins I think he was removed for say things about HIV and aids wasn't he? Lewis is paranoid to the extreme so maybe he said something about a historical event that channel 5 couldn't let stand. Also might explain why it's not being aired as c5 wouldn't want to give air time to certain things.

It's all twitter speculation though it seems unlikely they will be able to keep it under wraps forever.

Of course his family are going to deny he did anything wrong. However he actually said he didn't mean to offend anyone over race, gender or sexuality, or something like that.

There is absolutely no way this was about something just being taken out of context like many on FB are claiming. They would not outright eject him for a borderline comment. Not just before the win lines opened.

Its annoying they won't show us what actually happened. I kind of feel..no matter how offensive it is, it should be shown so we know. It it reality TV, sometimes reality is ugly. Plus Marcus prefaces almost every segment with warnings anyway..so if people really didn't want to be offended, they could just not watch. Its ages after the watershed. They even do offensive language warnings for gods sake Grin

itswinetime · 27/10/2018 15:06

I agree family will obviously defend him as expected I just wonder if it's less clear cut than using a racist slur of homphobic language.

It wouldn't make him any better in my eyes or some innocent victim but I wonder if he said something about say the holocaust or hiv/aids or 9/11 or something that channel 5 felt was to disrespectful or racist in itself but not one one word of your with me. What he said will still have been massively offensive I'm sure but possibly not as easily explained as Lewis said the n word or whatever.

It's hard because it would be skirting close to freedom of speech but from what we have seen of Lewis something like that something that he thinks is clever deep and meaningful but is actually factually inaccurate and can be offensive!
