I was going to do a rating but I donā€™t actually like any of them šŸ¤£ syed/hashu is probably the only one I can really tolerate. Maybe Gemma/James just for the dogs.

Iā€™m the samešŸ˜‚I only really like syed and vithun. everyone else annoys me in some way. Andy wouldā€™ve been up there for me too but canā€™t get over the fact he got rid of billy and didnā€™t tell anyone about gemma lying!!!

But sheā€™s pretending sheā€™s Tallyā€™s geezer gal, saying she wouldnā€™t put anyone else before her and then put her LAST just to keep her catfish ā€œboyfriendā€ in because sheā€™s loving the attention

She has said she only trusts Andy, I guess when you canā€™t be 100% who is real youā€™ll say anything to keep your alliances, after all you need them to be in with a chance of winning. I do think itā€™d be great if they showed peoples ratings this time round.
 
Iā€™m not used to having to wait for the next episode, itā€™s not right!šŸ˜‚

Manrika really showing her true colours there rating Tally 6th. Out of everyone there including the catfish, she is by far the biggest fake and the biggest snake, that is quite an achievement but she really is a monumental witch. It really winds me up how she will slag someone, usually Gemma, off and then send them a really nice message seconds later. Her whole approach is just off for me and I canā€™t stand people like that in real life because you never truly know where you stand with them. I know itā€™s a game but you can play the game without being downright nasty. A couple of episodes ago, she mentioned how she had to grow up fast, well from where Iā€™m sitting she doesnā€™t seem very grown up to me. I really hope the others start to see through her tit. So hypocritical how sheā€™s against anyone else playing a game, yet sheā€™s already started with the backstabbing herself.

Canā€™t see Tally going, I hope she doesnā€™t anyway. Sheā€™s far more interesting than Dorothy and I reckon things could get heated with her and Manshrieka over this felix/Gemma business. #geezergalsdemise winky face emoji, SEND.

Not half as boring as the Syed character. My point stands. Utter outrage if white man being doing Syed voice on television.

He is Bangladeshi too, he may speak with the accent around family - he isnā€™t mocking

His "own" accent isn't even real. He dropped it for his race card sob story part of the character. I don't buy the idea that it's OK to put on the accent because it's his uncle. It wouldn't be OK for a British man to put on the accent because it was his mate.

Your comparisons are at different ends of the scale. Forget skin colour - a British Bangladeshi is completely different to someone who is just British putting on a Bangladeshi accent. As said at home he very possibly does speak with the accent, but in public in England he probably speaks how he speaks as Hashu

You can't say "forget skin colour" when putting on a comedy accent is only deemed offensive in terms of the accent and the skin colour of the person doing it.

think youā€™re on your own there thinking syed is boring as everyone else on this thread loves him lol. at this moment there isnā€™t a white man doing ā€œsyed voice on televisionā€ and even if there was outrage thatā€™s completely fine considering a white British person would be mocking an Indian accent

So if a white person puts on a strong comedy Indian accent with a level of broken English they don't personally speak with , that is mocking the Indian accent. But if a non white person does it then that's cool. Ridiculous double standard.

Skin colour is irrelevant because that doesnā€™t determine your accent.

As an example a Scottish person putting on a Jamaican accent for the lolz would be seen as horrific and racist in these woke times, but a Jamaican putting on a Scottish accent wouldn't bat any eyelids. It's everything to do with colour.
