That's a good question, but I'm sure getting sick of 'Princess' Leah's shouting.
It's going to be interesting when the wall between the two houses comes down this coming week though.

HCS, I'll probably watch that, mainly because I want to see how it was constructed etc.
After that they can all drown in the newly revealed pool for all I care. Although I'm not sure many will swim in it because Carlo will probably piss in it.

Carlo probably will piss in it... what a revolting thought. But if he goes tomorrow night (please make it so!) he won't have a chance to...
I don't know why they didn't kick him out, I just hope the Oz public has enough sense to do it.

Hopefully he goes!
On the website he's polling lowest out of all the nomaniees...
So that looks hopeful!
Ha leahs scared of inclosed spaces, especailly tunnels.. sounds like me!!!
I havent watched it since the first.. Dont need to though, Everyone tells you whats been happening and plus the website does too...
(wow that was a really badly constructed sentence)

The official Big Brother forums are temporarily closed because users of this website have been attempting to discuss a particular topic in a way which if published on the website, may expose us and themselves to criminal penalties.
Is that about the Belindas sister thing?

You mean her 17 year old sister who is doing time for murder?
It's funny that they air it all then have to go and close their forum because people are discussing it.... I mean, come on channel 10! What do you expect?
It was all a ratings grab in the first place. Thought the public SHOULD be aware of all those, such as Belinda's sister, who have committed murder so we can be wary of who to avoid.... plaster their faces all over the place (include rapists and child molestors).

Wont she be in jail?
How long did she get?
If the :rolleyes:justice system is as bad in Australia as it is here she'd get about 6 years maybe?

I'm surprised she's in jail at all and that some Civil Rights lawyer didn't help her enough.
You can be "white" and "adult" and kill someone, and get 1 year in prison, or "black" (ie: Australian Aboriginal) and "juvenile", and get 1 year for stealing a packet of biscuits.

Not a fan of mandatory sentencing then Kurmudgeon?

I just think that white fellas should at the least be treated the same as those we oppressed and stole our land from.
AusChic

I understand that. I also see the irony in that sentence about an aboriginal getting a year in prison for stealing biscuits, seeing that my ancestors didn't choose to come here but were sent to "prison" for stealing bread or some other relatively harmless thing. You think we would've learned something from that hey? As for mandatory sentencing I know that since we've had it in force up here the crime rate has increased.

i've only just discovered this thread... don't know how i missed it!
i'm in the thriving metropolis of Orange, NSW...
it actually is a lovely place to live!
regarding more states for oz.... i don't think we need MORE government! I agree with chook... lets ditch the ideas of states altogether! then maybe the state of origin series will be abandoned and we can all be relieved of another footy boofhead tradition!

re big brother...
it's infiltrating my dreams! i've never watched it b4 but this time i'm well and truly addicted. i can't make up my mind about carlo... he's an arrogent bugger but good to watch.
i really have a problem with belinda... she just annoys me... can't think of a better reason because the truth is that simple!
i think she is secretly attracted to carlo... just see how she carried on drunkenly when she was confessing about her sister...
it's bizarre how they haven't talked about it since...
hmm... mandatory sentencing... that is interesting Auschick... i have no real opinion on it because i haven't seen any evidence for or against close to me at this stage...

I've heard talk of getting rid of the State governments..... apparently Australia has the most politicians per person. And we know what a waste they are (us tax payers are even supporting two governor-generals at the moment).
And for sure, do ANYthing to lower the amount of sport!

Carlo is a sexist arsehole, I don't particularly like watching sexist people. Or listening to them speak. I wish he would get evicted and not get a live show, his conduct doesn't deserve that sort of fun. Anyone who thinks Carlo is cool needs their head examined IMO, especially if it's a woman who thinks that (btw, that's not directed at you Kat New, you didn't say he was cool). I don't even find him remotely entertaining to watch, just nauseating. Belinda isn't my favourite by a long shot but I feel sooooo sorry for her.
I am against mandatory sentencing too. I definitely agree with what Kurm said.

it's ummm interesting reading all about BB ... i'm not even there to watch it but know alot about it!
thanks guys! i feel not so homesick :p
hahaha NOT!

i'm all fired up for the eviction tonight...
i had a big dilhemma deciding who to vote for between carlo and belinda. in the end i figured carlo is bound to piss enough people off sooner or later, so i went for belinda...
my hubby actually showed me some more info he found on a BB thread about THAT conversation and now i feel more sorry for her and a bit guilty!
i am not a shallow person, but i admit that i can be a weak opponent against my own jealousy of skinny pretty girls... it is a terrible vice that i battle everyday... maybe it has gotten the best of me this time!
BUT since Reggie has moved houses Belinda has spent alot of time bitching in general... it's quite funny because reggie acts the bimbo and smiles and nods a lot and belinda just keeps ranting on (like i am now, actually!)
i'm beginning to think that reggie's bimbo-ness is actually just a cover... she is actually totally clued in at it is a clever defense!

Hey Kat (a fellow BB fan, great!)
Carlo is gone, and I am soooo happy! I don't have a problem with skinny pretty girls (I was one once apparently) but I am amazed at how many girls I know hate Jo "just because"... it's obviously a jealousy thing. I feel sorry for Belinda tonight as well as Carlo completely ignored her. I actually don't blame Belinda, if I had spent 2 weeks having to be silent and being treated like sh*t and someone came in who was a sympathetic listener I'd vent too. She didn't bitch about Carlo anywhere near as much as he did about her. It annoys me how there's always this double standard, guys can always get away with SO MUCH more than women can... but at least the public showed definitively that Carlo's behaviour wasn't on... Saxon is now in my targets because of his little boy sulking tonight! "Justice has not been served..." WTF? Drama queen...
Just having my little vent! :D
I don't think Reg is acting like a bimbo, she is quite fiery really. She's just a little more outspoken and maybe not as quick-witted as the others, but a quick wit is not necessarily a clever wit...

Has anyone watched Australia's Worst Driver? They have people who are bad drivers and put them through tests, and there's one girl (whose Mum is on the show with her) and I am sure both of them are faking it...... surely no-one can be as dumb as they seem to be.
Kat New

shewolf!
i can't agree!!!
carlo isn't my favourite kinda person by any means... but i really do feel that he was true and real, whereas with belinda she just seems fake... and i do find that hard to cope with...
after i doubted myself on this post tonight watched the show and thought... no it's true! she does drive me mad and that is that!
i was once a skinny girl too... but i think ive been too hard on myelf actually... there are plenty of pretty skinny girls out there i'm not jealous of... but belinda's fake style drives me nuts...
each to their own!
carlo is a loveable rogue... can't help it! i am one of those girls that gets on better with guys than girls too, so that may have something to do with it...
the house is duller because he is gone, i reckon... and too many smitten boys are taken in by belinda's charming looks!
i agree about Saxon though... he is the biggest drama queen of all!!
ahhh... my vent is out too! feels good huh?!
i haven't seek Australia's Worst Driver.... hmmm... but some people actually ARE that dumb!!!
but not reggie!

Did Gretel hug/kiss Carlo after he got kicked out? If she did maybe she should get a tetanus shot.
