Went to the WHATM thread on DS to see if they had more info ,but this is all that has been reported .
It could be something completely different.

I'm confused.

They should take BB's warnings as meaning eff all at all, if BB11 was anything to go by. Might scare Nick, but no-one else.

How do you know they've been warned? Did they mention it on LF?

Why the warning, is it a secret brothel or something? That is against BB rules.

Victor is/was a doorman in RL. Please elaborate on WTF is going on. Ta much

That'd be right up Michelle's street. Lea's probably in there now, charging extra for bum...

There's not a lot anyone can add to that. 

I missed most of it but I think it was about Michelle saying something in reference to gays because she kept apologising to Brian, she seemed upset - not crying - at what she'd said

Oh God don't tell Makosi or she'll be right in there and spend the rest of the show permanently bent over with her bare arse in the air hoping

I don't think Michelle Bass has tear ducts full stop.

Maybe she's just singing Pie Jesu?

A bit like Nikki then, I keep noticing now that when Nikki gets upset it sounds like she's crying but there's never any tears

Lea got there first and did the DVD

If this is what it was about I'm astounded Erin, Victor was the one that brought it up first and they were all laughing . 

Weird huh. 

Brian and Victor were having a bit of banter. Didn`t hear it all but the gist of it was something about playing the gay card and the race card. They were laughing. They didn`t show what she said but Michelle (according to what was said later) had joined in on the gay jokes. She was called to the DR. When she came out she said to Brian that it was unfair that she got into trouble because it was him and Victor who started it so they should be told off too. Brian was then called to the DR. 

So, they were told off for telling jokes?

I swear if you made coffee for a black person on that show and forgot to put their sugar in it people would scream discrimination and we'd have 'race row' all over the TV. It's beyond pathetic.

My gawd no wonder not many Irish programmes go to England, its too PC there, can't people joke together anymore incase someone gets upset, BB should wait for the complains then apologise if any come in....

Ah thanks erinp. Sorry, I got that wrong. I thought Michelle talked about the gay banter. It makes  more sense now. I remember they were all having a gossip in the nest and Victor was asked to be the look out incase anyone else was going to come in. That`s when he said "Just because I`m black doesn`t mean I`m security"  Brian also said "Oh, playing the race card now are we?" They were all laughing.
Like us, I`m sure Victor would be saying.. fgs what a fuss about nothing!!

IMO this OTT reaction creates divides which is the last thing anyone needs.

Spot on Lee. It's other people wanting racial tension where none exists just so they can cause a furore over it. I don't care what anyone says, nobody was more surprised about the Shilpa Shetty race debacle than Shilpa herself when she came out.

From the Daily Star online (3/9/10):

The latest race explosion happened when Michelle was talking to Victor, 29, gay Brian and “Nasty” Nick Bateman, 42.
Michelle, 29, looked them up and down and said: “It’s blacks and all sorts night tonight.”
As an uneasy silence settled over the house, Brian, 32, tried to make a joke and said: “It’s gays, blacks, villains and divas night.”

Not one of Michelle’s rival housemates complained about either her or Brian’s comments, but BB bosses dragged her in for a telling-off.

Michelle stormed out of the diary room and complained to Brian: “I didn’t say any abusive words. I used the correct terminology and I only said it because you said it and Victor said it.”
Brian replied: “Oh my God, that was just us being silly. We were just joking.
“Michelle, you’ve got nothing to worry about. I wasn’t offended by it because I said it, too. I don’t think it’s that bad.”
Brian was later called into the diary room and warned about his language.

The row led to a debate in the house. Ulrika Jonsson, 43, said: “They want to cover their arses. They can’t have anything upsetting the last series.”
A BB spokesman said: “Brian and Michelle were reminded about the rules regarding unacceptable language.”

Thanks Eugene.That`s cleared things up. It was the after talk about what happened in the nest that caused the fuss.
What a load of nonsense.

I agree. The Star usually falls over itself to exaggerate BB "scandals", but overall, their article on this is unusually (by Star standards) even-handed.
Yes, the headline is "New Big Brother Race Row", but on reading it it's clear that the row is between BB and the HMs - not between individual HMs...

Exactly.
BB have created something out of nothing.

Absolutely spot on Lee.

tch.. race row my ass.... plate face is many things but i dont think for 1 minute she is racist

Goodness knows what would happen if you used another wording for having that coffee without milk, too!!

Who runs the show ,what idiot read it as anything more than a joke between HMS.

I think there are folk out there who just sit, watch and wait for anything that is said that they can deem to be racist.  These sort of people have nothing better to do with their time and all they do is create division where there isn't any.

I agree.

Ofcom must dread BB season.

Of course there is LL but in this case it was BB who caused the problem. BB knew it was banter but decided to cover their back due to past stuff. They`ve stupidly created a situation that wasn`t even there. Whoever decided to call Michelle and Brian to the DR for racists comments..should to be sacked!
