After Bea's record breaking cryathon last night and the reaction of George Lamb on BBLB (he felt it was pure acting) I got to thinking how the charge of fake crying has often been levelled at various hms over the years with people swearing they never saw tears whereas others clearly saw them.
My own take on this is that some hms will do what actors do and tap into past hurts to make themselves cry. Hira demonstrated that she could do this and BB were obviously trying to insinuate that her tears at Rod's story were fake as well!
I think Bea does do this on some occasions, but on others like last night just works her existing levels of upset up and up as children do. Charlie and Rod also fit into this category I believe, although Charlie is also partial to a bit of am- dram as well.
Other people, I believe, unconciously tap the same resoviors of grief that the actors do deliberately. Because of this their reactions seem blown out of all proportion. Aisleyne was an example of this and later said she was shocked by how emotional she had got in BB7 and put it down to things in her past coming up.
Do other fms see things in a similar way, or are most tears in the bb house,( particularly by those hms we dislike) purely 'acting?
