The paramedics would have noticed how much the blood had clotted and known he had been laid there a while and the ambulance was not called straight away. I know they wanted to link Freddie's backstory into Stacey's current one and his attack was OTT but they should just have called 999 straight away and been honest imo.

Unpopular opinion and im prob gonna get slated for this but has everyone forgotton how vile Jade Goody was to Shilpa Shetty?? I dont get why people are fawning over Bobby saying ‘oh your mum would be so proud’ etc, putting her on a pedestal. Its absolutely awful that she passed away from cervical cancer but lets not forget she wasnt all sweetness and light. She did redeem herself somewhat by bringing awareness to the importance of smear tests but it always annoys me when people forget the horrible things someone has done just because they died

No, this is my exact problem. Jade was either thick as tit or she pretended to be, neither was a good look. She was ignorant, crass, a bully and a racist. Of course she (via her PR team) tried to make it right but FFS, what adult in the 21st century thinks racist bullying is okay in the first place?

I will say though, the legacy Jade left in regards to screening and treatment for cervical cancer has been enormously significant and I probably wouldn't be here now if I hadn't had earlier screening thanks to her story.

But that said, she was problematic and pretending she was an angel because she died of cancer is just not right.

Certainly no outrage.

I'm old enough to remember her from the original BB. She wasn't great even then! She was half a numpty (I'll keep it PG) and that was the good half, but you can't tar Bobby - who probably doesn't even remember her - with the same brush. As far as I've read he's been kept away from the scummy Granny too. Didn't she come out swinging saying she had to pay for a ticket to the NTAs as Jeff doesn't let her near. And, even on the Celeb BB, it wasn't just Jade, it was Pringle Lloyd and Jo S Club. Shilpa is no angel either but that came out years later!

Yes, he's a nepo brat but hardly the worst being thrust down our throats right now.

Yes I agree it's not fair to blame him for his mother's behaviour. Have to say I wasn't keen on her either and I couldn't understand why she got so much attention in the press. It was sad that she died so young though.
 
Just caught up on the episode and oh my god. It really showed up Freddie’s acting skills with him just looking gormless and dry crying. Why did they need to make up a half baked story? The actual truth would have been enough. Just ridiculous. They should have rang Phil from the off!
I do love Eve though…I’m a straight woman but I think she’s sexy as hell.

As Eve said it would be seen as excessive by the police

I could’ve sworn Theo and Lily had a conversation about being left handed a few months ago

Omg I thought this too. Thought I was going mad lmao
 
Loved tonight’s episode but my main issues were:

Theo isn’t dead, so will not corroborate their story. Bobby and Anna saw Stacey in the street and she said Freddie wasn’t there… I’m guessing Freddie will go on the run (funded and arranged by Phil) the truth will then come out and he’ll come back (after competing on strictly)!

Jackiey (yeah a weird spelling). I think she lost the use of one of her arms in a motorbike accident or something. She was a horror. In the C4 docu, she said that Jade went in the BB house to get away from her.
