To all of the subs popping over to see what goes on here, my summary is this,
We were all once subs who enjoyed the channel.
When Mark took over the channel we felt a huge shift from light entertainment to offensive, inappropriate chaos.
We felt a family channel was not the place for their constant swearing, filthy innuendo's and constant removal of clothing, including asking their 12 year old to take the pictures of her semi naked mother in sexualised poses.
We felt uncomfortable seeing 2 grown adults live in absolute squalor, rats, mice and nits all recent visitors to their home, and their lack of interest in removing them.
We struggle to see how 2 grown adults celebrate such non existant personal hygiene habits, (not washing themselves for days, bedding not washed for months and 6 day old knickers used to dust surfaces are just a few examples)
We all started to see vulnerable subs getting manipulated and it was uncomfortable viewing which we call out when it happens.
We felt uncomfortable watching him film his 12 year old daughter despite her begging not to be filmed.
We were shocked at the amount of money that went missing during their weekly family quiz nights
We felt they used coronavirus to get more subscribers under the guise that they cared, as MANY vulnerable subs are constantly ignored whilst the ones praising them get constant attention.
We observed them breaking covid rules day after day holiday after holiday. They are now influencers and have a moral responsibility to follow covid rules but they constantly chose to ignore them as they please and relish in filming the whole families rule breaks.
We found it a contradiction that they did cooking slots for children as it was a family channel, then when the mood takes them they swear, argue, scream and shout, mock other people and influence exceptionally bad behaviour by stating the channels not for kids and they shouldn't be watching.
We struggled to see them go shopping almost daily throughout covid AND demand they were entitled to the in demand delivery slots because they were famous people who cooked spaghetti twice a week live on youtube.
We've all struggled to see them homeschool their children, a few gallery visits and cooking spaghetti every week felt a tad short of an education. We knew they sent them to tutors so that helped calm the fear their children were completely missing out on an education.
Purely for profit they wrote a book which they said was a guide to homeschoolong, it wasn't a guide and they didn't do the educating so we commented alot on this subject.
Watching a well paid celebrity admit to phoning up companies and begging them for freebies because she felt she deserved them felt dispicable, (the vlog where Nadia admits begging for the garden furniture a case in point)
We called out the way they got to 100,000 subscribers exceptionally quickly during one week and despite us all living through a Pandemic where the world came to a halt we questioned how they got a youtube plaque from America a couple of days after reaching 100,000 subs, we then discovered you can buy the youtube plaques online. We questioned why they never erected their plaque or mentioned the subject again.
Watching 2 people chose to behave how they do when they are being offensive and derogatory, then when they get called out on certain aspects of their behaviour and they both retreat to their own rooms to film woe is me films to gain sympathy, is something we discuss as it happens more and more. Calling someone out for lying or breaking covid rules isn't trolling, it's sharing a valid opinion.
I'm using the Royal "We" above, as of course everyone's here for different reasons, but in my time here the above themes have been common issues we've all discussed and agreed on. I am in no way saying everyone will agree with my comments, they are just my opinions on how I see things here.
We've found it peculiar the way they respond to the subscribers of their channel, anyone with a different opinion is mocked and muted on an minute by minute basis.
There are so so many more issues that can be seen if the threads are all read.
I hope if you are new, you take the time to get a balanced view and read all of the valid points made here. Of course there are things said which are purely personal comments made by people, but in general this thread is written to call out the constant lies and vile behaviour from two people who chose to monetize their channel, chose to keep themselves busy by putting out "So much content" and chose to constantly lie.
A liars worst enemy is someone with a good memory.
I personally stopped watching for the reasons I originally watched such as relaxing light entertainment etc. I purely watch them as they have made their life car crash tv worthy. I hold my hands up, I'm also a social scientist at my core and I am fascinated by people watching. People who keep saying if you don't like don't watch missing the point. I don't like crime but I watch police interceptors. I also resent Mark offering advice to people who suffer from mental health problems when he refuses to take any medication or engage in talking therapies (a couple of online AA mettings aren't the talking therapies I mean. I find it extremely disturbing as to why he feels its OK to advice everyone else what to do whilst ignoring any solutions to his own mental health issues.
I would happily speak directly to the Sawalha-Adderleys on any issue I've commented on and am neither unhappy in my life, mentally ill or hiding away.
Happy reading and welcome
