I think the "flatmates" are a metaphor for the internet community.
"Inability to load a dishwasher": Failure to understand the real clues and getting caught up in lots of trivia. Putting things in the wrong place, etc.
"too particular about how I do things": A comment about all of the complaints that the story does not move the way they expect it and that it does not reach the conclusion as fast as expected.
"Little Britian": An inverted reference here about all of the people complaining about the Gemma videos.
Just my opinion, but a lot more substantial than the idea she's setting them up to go outside (haven't they been outside?) |

I think she's just being annoying. Little Britain is a very popular TV series in the UK, and her mate doing impressions of Vicky Pollard - while it can be irritating, it's a little hypersensitive to moan about it.... if you want more info about Little Britain have a look here.... http://www.bbc.co.uk/bbcthree/tv/littlebritain/

That's what I immediately thought when I read the discussion of "is Gemma/Jackie really British?" I'm not deaf, and I don't know sign language, but I do know that the deaf community in each country has its own individual sign language. Just because the hearing people in two countries speak (basically) the same language -- like English with variations of dialect -- that doesn't mean that the sign languages for those two countries will be the same at all.

If so it might be worth someone who has time trying to find a copy of that book and see if the signs that gemma did are mentioned. Just a thought. |
Bree was reading what looked to me like an ancient copy of the Boy Scout Handbook. I'm sure that the signals she was using were hand signals from that book. The question would be, where to get a copy of that version? |

There is something to this, folks. I just can't figure out what. |
 whoa, the light bulb just went off in my head, i think maybe all of this is intentional, and they want us to notice, but we've just went in the wrong direction with it, gemma is faking for some reason or another, i really think she's with the people that are after bree and daniel
nm, as i kept reading i realised i'm about the 50th person that has said this  |
