Gilbert was called to the Diary Room due to his language towards Ashby, where Big Brother told him: “George, before you enter the Big Brother house, you were explained the rules of unacceptable language and behaviour. Big Brother needs to talk to you about the conversation that happened at the dinner table last night.
“During the game of Truth or Dare, when you were asked about your least favorite qualities of the other housemates, you said the following, ‘Sam, um too…’, then you began using both noises to imitate Sam, making fun of Sam’s way of talking and body language, including the limp wrist.
“Do you understand how your language and behavior can be offensive to both Sam, your housemates and the viewers?”
Gilbert said he had spoken to Ashby about his behavior and apologized to his fellow contestant. He said, “I don’t want to make anyone feel that way, so I’ll be walking on eggshells around Sam from here on out.”
