Remember that oh so British poem "If"? If you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs...British men should not show emotion in public, it most certainly is not "manly".

I respect your reply, but what is there to be jealous ab out. How do you know whether I have made a great success of my life and not because I stood behind a bar for 25 years and have a spiteful mouth. Apparently she is well known among so-called celebrities for being a harsh type of person. I am 76 and I do not think it is becoming for her at only 70 to be sitting around with her legs wide open most of the time. She reminds me of Nana in the Catherine Tate show! Now I expect I will have an answer to that!

Julie Goodyear is a spiteful and hateful old woman oldtrout, so why would anyone be jealous of that. You sound just like an old trout.

Just to let you know that I am 76 and had since 2003, 7 operations on various parts of my body and I do not class myself as disabled. I had cancer in 1982 and do not class myself as disabled. To throw the line, I am a 70 year old disabled pensioner is wrong. Age should not come in to it. You can be young and be classed as disabled. She thought she would win because of her age but it did not come off. She said it was the true her, well if that was the true her, she needs someone to tell her to button it now and again. Although I will say it would have been a much duller show without her in it. Anyway why moan at me, did you hear the crowd the last few times booing her and shouting, Get Julie off!! I am not on my own. I believe the housemates would have nominated her earlier but they had respect for her age. Also they have all said what she is really like, so it is not just me. BB should have said when she went in, that she had medical problems and that she would be having her own bathroom and hairdresser and would not have to do anything in the house, then we might have understood more. They need not have said what was wrong, but at least we were in the picture.

I forgot to say I do not want to know the reason why she is disabled but we should have known that she was disabled then people might have had more sympathy for her. You think she made a success of her life. All she is is an actress who stood behind the bar in a soap, and I might add very good at her job. It is not brain damage to be an actress and I will upset you further why do these so-called celebrities get gongs for nothing. Plenty of us have worked in Banking etc., like myself for 40 years and did not get to meet the Queen to say we had done a good job. These people are well paid for very little effort so I gather that you are a relative or a avid follower of the soaps.

Have they corrected the mistake? It was side when I posted my comment.

Me too! Her non stop chewing got on my nerves, just like a cow chewing the cud all the time. Julian or Martin to win I hope.
