Loose Women? Loose morals more like after hypocritical handling of Kim Woodburn

There are many that will think that Kim Woodburn has a lot coming to her, after a fiery Celebrity Big Brother stint and some noticeable public outbursts since. Whilst she is a bit of a loose cannon when it comes to live television, it is clear that she has had a lot to contend with as she battles demons of her own. So, it would seem slightly unfair that the producers would try to exploit her renown temperament in a veiled attempt of serious debate. From the moment the idea was muted of bringing Kim in to face her CBB nemesis Coleen Nolan, for 'clear-the-air' talks, it was probably privately hoped that she would kick-off. All involved with Loose Women must have been rubbing their hands in delight as the drama unfolded and Kim stormed off set, sending social media into a frenzy. It was unfair that producers looked to exploit Kim's temperament It was soon apparent though that this was not the most savoury incident to ever happen on the ITV daytime show. Public opini...

Celebrity Big Brother: Why the 'Banter Notes' should see Jermaine removed from the house

Morality is often low down on the list of priorities for the celebrities that enter the Big Brother house but there are times when the motives of the housemates need to be addressed. The eviction of Chloe Ayling was probably the right choice if this series is going to drag itself off the floor but her treatment by Jermaine Pennant should see the former footballer following her straight out the door. Controversy is what keeps the Channel 5 going and after Natalie Nunn was dumped in the public vote, there was a huge personality gap in the house. This was compounded by Rodrigo's removal, so there was a desperate need for someone to start the tongues wagging. What we didn't need though was Jermaine showing that he could have a bit of adulterous fun, just to brush it off as a bit of banter. After Chloe revealed all to the housemates about why they are on basic food rations and what was written in the secret communications between her and Jermaine, his reaction was more dis...

Celebrity Big Brother: Why this eviction could make or break the series

In practical terms, the next eviction on Tuesday night (August 28) is a straight choice between two housemates but in terms of this Celebrity Big Brother series, it could be make or break. After the eviction of Natalie Nunn and then the removal of Rodrigo Alves, there was a danger that the house would descend into normality and thus, be very forgettable. Hardeep is definitely not everyone's cup of tea in the house This coming eviction could seal the fate of the series as being one of the worst so far, unless the viewers make the right choice for the entertainment values of the show. Hardeep Singh Kohli is definitely not everyone's cup of tea in the house and he is quickly burning bridges left, right and centre. His interaction with others are almost certainly going to rub them up the wrong way but with two big personalities, surely he needs to stay - at least until others step up to the plate.

Celebrity Big Brother: What needs to happen to stop this series being the worst ever

No matter what you think of the antics of Natalie Nunn and Rodrigo Alves, it is safe to say that this series of Celebrity Big Brother has lost two of the biggest characters in the house. The problem that the Channel 5 reality TV series has now is that it could take too long to find its feet again and find fans of the show turning off. Who really wants a house where there is peace and harmony among its residents Natalie was easily the most controversial housemate this time around and her bullying and confrontational style left a lot to be desired. Her behaviour though, is surely what the bosses had paid the money to see. Who really wants a house where there is peace and harmony among its residents.

The question is, who will step up and provid...

Celebrity Big Brother: Natalie Nunn's eviction proves viewers' moral compass is more on track than hers

After a week in which Natalie Nunn decided to drop a number of truth bombs on the her fellow housemates, it seemed inevitable that she would be shown the door. The antics of the US reality TV star left a lot to be desired for many but viewers had a difficult choice to make. The Big Brother house is a place where morals and rules in life are left at the door and the reason why the celebrities are incarcerated for our entertainment. Natalie has been all guns blazing from the moment she entered the house Of course, the main problem with this is that the characters with forceful personalities can take over the house, for better or for worse. Natalie Nunn has been all guns blazing since the moment that she stepped into the Channel 5 show and has shown no signs of holding back. In fact, she has waged her own war on people being 'fake' and has took it upon herself to put them in their place at all costs. So, this has meant the likes of Gabby Allen and Chloe Ayling have been...

Love Island: Why Megan Barton Hanson is making the haters eat humble pie

There were a number of the Islanders that really divided opinion with the viewers. The Love Island villa was never going to be a place for shrinking violets and most of those on the ITV2 show would have done anything for love (and a share of a £50,000 pay packet). Dr Alex started as a people's champion, with his gentlemanly manner but lost the respect of the public as he ran away when a relationship looked like it might step up a level. Adam was accused of gaslighting and Laura Anderson was spectacularly dumped, twice, before finding her man as time in the villa came to a close. Then there was Megan. She took a nibble from various dishes before decided which one she liked Her bed-hopping behaviour at the start of her stay in the villa was enough for a lot of viewers and social media commentators to condemn her forever. She took a nibble from various dishes before decided which one she liked but even when she made her choice, it wasn't really her true path. When Wes ...

Celebrity Big Brother: Has the reality TV 'player' had their day as eviction notice looms for Natalie Nunn and Hardeep Singh Kohli?

There was a time when being a controversial personality in the Celebrity Big Brother house was a sure-fire way of heading to the final of the Channel 5 reality show. Stephen Bear was crowned the CBB champion in 2016, on the back of being the most obnoxious character in the house and there seemed a time when bad behaviour would equal votes from viewers. Times have changed now and the reality TV 'professionals' that go into the house to cause a furore, are finding their antics are being looked down upon. Natalie Nunn clearly prides herself on being the 'baddest b*tch in the house' and where that may have elevated her to star status in the States, it has left a bad taste in the mouth over here in Blighty. Natalie clearly prides herself on being the 'baddest b*tch in the house' Viewers have called out the Bad Girls Club  star for being a bully towards Love Islander Gabby Allen and her fellow housemates voted in their droves to put her up for eviction at th...
