The AU series of Oh Brother has kicked off (apparently people still watch it! Though I have my doubts :P)
Anyways, talk around the office water cooler at the moment is centred around Emma, one of the contentants who's sick father passed away last week. Family have apparently requested that Emma NOT be told
My question is, if it were you, what would you like to happen? Would you want to be told, or would you prefer to wait until you were evicted to find out?

I've read about this on the Sydney Morning Herald website and I thought that they, the producers, should have told her.
Now the public won't vote her out to protect her.
I can't believe she missed the funeral.
I think she'll have bereavement issues with this in the future

I didn't think BB could get any lower in my estimation, this is a crazy situation. How is that poor woman ever going to get over it?

the reports i read said that the woman in question was well aware that this was likely to happen, and that both her parents explicitly requested that she was not informed.. i can only imagine if the TV station in question had notified her, people would have been up in arms for denying a bloke his dying wish!

It is unbelievble that someone would choose to put 15 minutes of fame before the death of someone close.

Personally, I would want to be told. If it were someone else (i.e. cousin, aunt / uncle etc.) yeah sure, wait it out. But your own father? Thats different.
