Hope I haven't cross posted with anyone else.

I agree @HurdyGurdy19 - as the episode went on, I've struggled to see how it wasn't a racist joke?!

usernother · 07/11/2024 22:18

I don't think she was being racist at all. It was just a well known phrase that's being used a lot atm and that happens to rhyme with gloats.

HurdyGurdy19 · 07/11/2024 22:18

Kerry is currently in an advert that keeps popping up on my Facebook feed for a clothing brand. It took me forever to work out where I knew her face from!

purpleme12 · 07/11/2024 22:19

Kerry?

Who's using this as other than Nigel Farage, I've not heard it?!

ShyMaryEllen · 07/11/2024 22:19

It seemed to be about stopping people getting into a room, and someone 'Nathan?' called them gloats (as they were gloating, I assume), and Sarah made a 'joke' about Stop The Gloats, to rhyme with 'stop the boats'😵‍💫

Probably not deliberately racist, but why would you have that phrase as a reference?

Kerry?

Kerry on the mobility scooter from last year. She's on Late and Live now

What's booky

I've no idea! 🤷‍♀️
Just what Segun said when Hanah was telling him about the gloaty comment in the bathroom.

MrsPeterHarris · 07/11/2024 22:21

I agree @ShyMaryEllen - such a weird thing to rhyme with. They were gloating so that was not in dispute. The boats thing was out of order.

Turmerictolly · 07/11/2024 22:21

I hope Sarah isn't kicked out, I think she didn't say this with malice but it was totally tactless nonetheless and I can see why Hanah would call it out and be upset.

Lily has got to go surely - she's a real pain and none of the housemates are finding it funny.

MrsPeterHarris · 07/11/2024 22:22

I agree @Turmerictolly & don't think she has racist intent but it's a fucking weird thing to rhyme with (or even think of!)

GroundControlToMajorTomCat · 07/11/2024 22:23

I HATE it when someone's apology pretty much saying 'I'm sorry if you feel offended' rather than saying 'I made a joke, but on reflection it was ill advised, I didn't think and I'm really sorry I caused offence.'

Lily is fucking annoying me too. Hope BB punishes only her rather than the whole house.

purpleme12 · 07/11/2024 22:28

Let's hope so

OldFred · 07/11/2024 22:38

Why was only Sarah pulled up for it, didn't they say it was both her and Nathan during the V+V task?

MrsPeterHarris · 07/11/2024 22:39

Only Sarah said it @OldFred

OldFred · 07/11/2024 22:48

Thanks @MrsPeterHarris

AhBiscuits · 07/11/2024 23:29

I think BB dealt with it well, she needed a warning. Definitely sounds like the kind of thing Nathan Farage would come out with.

JaneJeffer · 07/11/2024 23:49

What can you expect from someone who voted UKIP? And how come she said she's not interested in politics. Isn't she a mayoress?

JaneJeffer · 07/11/2024 23:50

Anyway I don't think she did it to be racist but she didn't think about how it could come across.

JaneJeffer · 07/11/2024 23:51

How come there was only two tasks?

JaneJeffer · 07/11/2024 23:52

Booky means shady

JaneJeffer · 07/11/2024 23:54

And who said Hahah had a bad education? She studied international politics and got a 2:1!

Booky means shady

Oh thanks that's useful to know!

JaneJeffer · 07/11/2024 23:57

Lily has basically lost them every luxury budget. How is she still alive?

CellophaneFlower · 08/11/2024 01:38

I think there's confusion about Sarah's comment. I think she made it with regards to the vampires, so Ali, Emma, Segun, Thomas, Dean 🤔 Hanah thinks it was made about the upstairs gang. I get why Hanah would think it could be racist if about her group (not sure why she laughed about it with Sarah though then went straight to Segun to moan) but it wasn't aimed at them.
