Yes the GBP track record for picking winners include the recent kerry Katona, matt willis, joe swash and now gino
Not good is it?? lol
The throroughly awful kerry katona had gullible souls reaching for her number to crown her queen of the jungle and she went on to be such a great person and turned out to be a worthy winner right?
Then you have matt willis who won because he ........wait a minute how did he win exactly?
And then you have joe "im a cheeky chappie me" swash who also conned the public and now shows his true character to be a rude, obnoxious perv, who thinks he is gods gift to women, men you name it they all love him.
And now the fake gino "itvs man" di campo

Not to mention the 'winners' the GBP have crowned in other reality shows - Brian Belo, Leon Jackson, Sophie Reade....I could go on.

Some very bitter people on here, he's a worthy winner and the reason I have stuck with the show this year, well done Gino

Ohhh dont remind me please

With Gino, what you see is what you get. There's nothing fake about him at all.

And im sure itv bosses will make you their employee of the month when you go into work tommorrow

Kim is much loved by her fans - Gino may have more voters tonight but there is only one Kim Woodburn.

Still good luck to both of them - two worthy finalists.

You don't think he over exaggerates everything from opinions to body mannerisms? I can see through these kinds of people, thankfully.

We have two type of GBP.

One type like watching someone playing up to the camera, reading HEAT Magazine and posting silly things on Digital Spy and the other type like watching real people be themselves.

Joke of the day.

ITV fixed it so that the person with the most votes would win!

I'm sure Gino could whip up a delicious dessert, even with all these sour grapes.

Do you actually know him?

Yes and he can serve it all up to the itv execs in their meeting to discuss his new show in the morning.

A worthy winner without a doubt. Kim was also good value, but Gino deserved to win nobody can dispute that!

Well yes we can actually

I can Although, to be fair, if he hadn't won, it would be hard to make a case for any of the others either. It was a very weak year in terms of the quality of the 'celebrities'. Don't even get me started on you know who being in there a week - that was the beginning of the end of it. Awful year, awful winner in my opinion.

What's this supposed to mean..

Who cares if it was by 1 or 1 million....fact is he is the winner

Its not like every show they called him 'ITV's This Morning's chef' is it. They just called him a chef or TV chef.

Sorry but I very much doubt ITV have rigged anything. They know what a mess they got into previously and they cannot afford any stupid cock ups like that now.

Gino won fair and square, just get over it, OK hes employed by ITV, big deal.

Well yes the fact he is employed by itv is a big deal, because thats what this thread is about

Ha, he's not even a real Italian

He def over Eggs it but but compared to that idiot that conned loads of people last year Joe Squash he is a Saint.

Let's get real here, they we're all in there for self promotion to one degree or another. Sabrina has just announced her solo career off the back of this publicity. Stuart and Lucy are actors and Kim, Kim, Katie, Justin and Colin do lifestyle based programs, all of them know that a good showing in IMACGMOH would have TV companies, ITV included knocking at their door.

Why would ITV set up Gino to win (a small fry in the cooking world who a lot of people hade never heard of before) to win from the start to the exclusion if so many others with whom they could forge lucrative deals if they did well on the show.

Gino was very popular with all the people who left the camp and nobody had a bad word to say about him. Reality TV isn't always about the big conspirancy story, sometimes it does just boil down to the best person winning.

Its an itv programme with an itv employee.
Its not rocket science

Actually ITV are probably a bit peeved that they'll have to pay him more now, or they'll lose him to another channel.
