    I think I read somewhere he and Faye were suppose to have a segment during Big Brother 13 season but they ended up withdrawing for some reason; might be because BOTS was quite cruel towards Aaron during his season.

    He's probably too busy sulking about something.

    Ah okay thanks for clearing that up, if I was him I would have refused to go on at all after some of the things they said on there. The finale night episode of BOTS was an absolute disgrace to watch.

    The story as presented by Aaron, and there seems no reason to doubt it, was that he was offered a special BBOTS role, far more than just on the panel, for BB13. They were going to do some broadcasts from his bar (that he was running at the time). Then, when they were about to launch, it was obvious that none of this was going to happen, and he was only going to be used as an ordinary panel member. So he was angry and refused to have anything to do with the show again, though he has said on here that he would like to do an Ultimate Big Brother, but only if Brian Dowling was in it, because he has a grievance about him and wants the chance to defeat him.

    Jay McKray also obviously fell out badly with Ch 5; I don't know the ins and outs of it at all. But it led to the rather odd situation that the main BB12 person during BB13 was Tom, who was not exactly a front-runner; fortunately for the show, he is an interested and articulate person.

    Unfortunately, he's an irritant with no especially interesting insights. I always go through an "oh no, not Tom again" moment when I learn he's going to be on BOTS.

    Never mind Aaron Faye has never been back to BB studios since the recording of the Winners show on the Saturday. Is there any wonder given how appallingly she was treated. As for Aaron BBOTS actually entered the realms of defamation. It is one thing commenting/having opinion on BB but when Producers start claiming as fact stuff about housemate character/thoughts which aren't true it is plain wrong. They even fed false information to Faye family. Producers I suspect never expected their duplicity to be exposed.

    Chit stirrer. He was lucky not to be nominated due to teams fighting each other. If he'd been up week 3 or 4 then he'd have gone. Govan got tipped out for less.

    He is frequently asked but considers it to be beneath him, that is what i would guess.

    He fell out with them over the show-segment that he and Faye expected to do for season 13 and has been critical of their aftercare, so I doubt they will be calling him anytime soon. Similarly, Deana criticized them over the Conor incident and also backed Aaron's criticism of aftercare, so I doubt that she will ever get the call either,

    I think Luke A also backed the criticism of aftercare, though, and he has been back.

    (Of course, BB might not have noticed his tweet.)

    Wasn't there a rumour/conspiracy theory at the time that Dowling suggested the idea of splitting the prize money because he didn't like Aaron?

    It wasn't a rumour Brian admitted it. Aaron says a disappointment in whole experience was realising what a nasty individual Brian was when he had been a fan previously. He said Emma was fine with him.

    Thread presumably from that time: [thread=1573541]Brian Dowling Had The Idea To Split The Prize Money......[/thread]. Some people tried saying it was a joke; some others argued that, noting being a producer, Brian couldn't have made the decision (which doesn't mean it couldn't have been his idea idea).

    We'll probably never know for sure.

    I think all the peanuts he could eat in the green room was a perfectly adequate offer.

    Did he really?

    Is he aware that Brian got more votes in the final of BB2 than all the HMs combined got during the entire series of BB12.

    Nice to see Aaron is still as big a pillock as ever though.

    It wasn't that he had a grievance against Brian, it's that he'd always considered Brian the best HM and as the winner of Ultimate BB he wouldn't want to do it unless he could compete against the Ultimate Housemate.

    He did say on this very board he knows it would never happen but would like the chance nonetheless given that Brian wasn't very nice to him.

    He was disgusted with the aftercare of the house mates. He then said on his Twitter that a couple of people from BB12 considered suicide (maybe said this during BB13) So, it was a very heavy subject. I remember Deana agreeing with what Aaron was saying online and backed him.

    Also, yes, he didn't like the fact that Dowling wanted him to give some of his money away, why would he?

    Aaron was a great housemate and was treated like an evil man on BOTS, even on the final when Pete Burns said what he did, so I am not surprised he didn't want to come back.

    Also it's worth pointing out that probably 90% of Brian's voters don't watch the show anymore whereas 90% of Aaron's voters probably do.

    I'd be interested to see them in a "best of"
