This is Big Brother. Please swear as much as you like here

[TellingBone]

Launch show tonight 9:00pm on ITV1, ITV2 and ITVX. I understand that housemates actually entered the house last night and that part was recorded.

Broadcasts will be at the same time nightly, followed six nights per week by Late and Live, and then a live stream after that on ITVX.

Bring it

I agree @MaryLivingOnDreamsAndCustardCreams - Olivia is not my cup of tea, but she was taking the pee out of her own accent & not being disparaging to Yinrun at all! Its horrible how people seem to look for offence these days & try to get others into trouble!

I've a strong Irish accent & live in England and have taken the pee out of myself and how difficult I am for other (english speaking!) people to understand!

I thought she said her mum was paying for blockers for her from when she was 16 and she stopped them because they ran out of money, but started taking them again just before going into BB. She said if she won she'd give some of the money to her mum to pay her back.

I thought it was a mixture NHS then mum but I’d probably zoned out by then

Oooooo don't like the Lizzo background music!

I really don't think a lot of her, but I really feel she just can not stop herself.
I did see the clip with her telling Yinrum to stop apologising.
Although I'm sure she was trying to be helpful she was shouting and it came across quite harsh.

Regarding Olivia and her telling Yinrum that she wouldn't be able to understand her.
Again she most likely ment it with no malice but like with everything she comes across brash/harsh and is obviously just the way she is.

R.E Kerry yeh I hate people like that at work, making out they are busy with their to do lists... like that means anything.
Also so passive aggressive and actually anti social in big groups when it comes down to it!
Tension in the air always.

Their vibe is that when they are in the room no one is allowed to relax. Life's too short for that atmosphere!

Has no one on this thread mentioned Paul's OnlyFans account yet? ;) along with some very 'problematic' tweets apparently. He's flying under the radar so far in the house

I saw his pics. Not very impressed.

Olivia reminds me of the school bully- loud, bitchy, nasty. I want her out.

I don't understand the complaints about Diversity. BB has ALWAYS had diversity.

The only housemate I dislike so far is Olivia.

I will give it a chance. I think the last series I watched had Rachel, Rex, Mario, Mikey, etc in it - on Channel 4!

Didn't even know there was someone in there called Paul.

@MrTiddlesTheCat that made me laugh out loud I never know names for the first 2/3 weeks

Oh no, I liked Paul. What's he done that's problematic?

Homophobic tweets apparently but not confirmed as his account was locked down quickly

In previous BB s esp longer epic series they add a few new housemates. To spice things up and keep it interesting.
I doubt that will happen with a 6 week Series.

Oh wow that's a bit of a difference to the past series

Yes, they're going to have to get a shift on if they don't want ten in the final

We have decided not to watch another big Brother programme. I don't know what is wrong with ITV. The only programmes worth watching on ITV and their extended channels is in for a penny and the chase the rest is shit. They are all likeable people and AJ asked on the after show to her guests who would you be friends with. To tame for me I want to actually be entertained.

I would 100% win this current challenge 🥴

Na I'd fail for sleeping

Reminiscent of my favourite box task, except they got toilet breaks I think.

You might as well get straight out if you're not prepared for a long slog.

I'm finding it quite interesting how my perspective is so much different now, I watched the first few series as a child/teen, then stopped watching. I remember thinking of even the youngest ones as so well put together and grown up, and now they seem so so young!

When I started watching it I was 16. I'm now 38.

I'd pull a Henry too. Fuck this, I'm off 😂
