Well we are now almost 3 weeks into this series of Big Brother and I have never seen or heard such vile language from from young people like what I am hearing, its almost has though they are totally uneducated.
One an ex pro who had a fling with a famous Manchester United player before he had his hair transplant, is totally obnoxious and her control of the language is zero. She must have been educated at the Gordon Ramsey Finishing School, the same one that Mrs Browns Son's went to.
If this is an example of modern youth, then the UK has no chance in the future.......

I have not watched one for a while and thought I would look in, but after seeing this Helen woman I was shocked at what the young people of today are like, because that is how they are portraying te young of today. They are all at it so really its not just one...

Oh no they are not!
These people are there precisely because they are different to the majority of decent hard working young people. If they were the same, there would be a rather boring programme.
You are out of touch, move in a very limited social circle, or believe everything you read in the UK trash media.
I hope that you are not tarring your own young relatives with your opinion above - I would bet that they are far from the BB inhabitants and wouldn't appear on the programme for a million pounds.
Go get another coffee, reflect on what you have written - it's early in this beautiful day, be thankful that decency actually abounds.

Mad Dilys, I agree with you entirely. I spent my professional life working with young people aged 14 to 24 - now that I'm retired I don't miss work, but I DO miss the stimulation and enjoyment of contact with them. Big Brother and the Daily Mail are not true reflections of young people, or indeed anything else!

These ''contestants'' are exhibitionists pure and simple, 'simple' being the operative word. They look back on the likes of one past player, can't remember her name but resembled a pig on a bad day. The fame and fortune this woman garnered from her unfortunately more than her fair share of the fifteen minutes of fame brigade, sullied, in my opinion, the worth of this fly on the wall series. They get a high from producing the most foul language and terminology because they can, and its expected for some strange reason, on this show. I doubt very much that they would show this other face in their true public lives. The folk that watch this trashy production are little more than voyeurs, wanting to spy on the antics of a collection of morons in the hope of espying a little off camera jiggy jiggy. What totally, unproductive lives they must lead. In my opinion of course.

Not just your opinion Dusak.
The word "Appropriate" seems to have fled from the English language.
About 20 years ago I was in a communal changing room in a women's fashion store. Next to me were a couple of 12 yr olds trying on outfits. I remember one looing at the other with admiration saying "Mmm that looks really sexy"
Sexy?

12 years old?
That was when I noticed an undercurrent of to me, bizarre, dangerous and inappropriate
language and behaviour seeping into decent society.

My children were chastised for just using the word hell, I would not except any bad language from them at all. I remember years ago being absolutely gobsmacked when I left school and joined the adult world and heard this sort of language used on a regular basis, I am still not liking it, especially in mixed company. It seems this day and age people just cannot refrain from it. I never as a child, or youth heard my parents swear once, the same applied for me and my wife when we brought up our children. Its something that has stuck with me all this time. In an all male group I do not mind too much even though I find it embarrassing, but I do find it offensive if used in front of myself and wife together.
