Incidentally, the petition is at 108 signatures now. Not bad, sincewe only set it up yesterday morning.
Also, I wrote down Mario's number for a friend at work to vote for him. He watches HL shows only, yet he still dislikes Dave, and can't understand how he's still there, and Mario and Corin were his favourites so now he's happy to vote for Mario. He thought last night's show was the best in ages, and that naked Mario was hilarious. I think that sometimes, we over analyze what other, less obsessed people might think. I am also convinced that Mario is much more liked than BB or thr bookies imagine. Most people decide on who they like very quickly, and Mario was hugely popular as the mole, and all it's going to take is a few reasonable edits to get people picking up the phone to vote for him. It may still not be enough, but I do think it will be a lot closer than anyone thinks.”
I agree - I've heard nothing but good feedback for the naked Mario segment on the show last night. Given the lack of response to George when he made the comment about it BBLB, it looks like it actually may have been a point in his favour. And I completely agree that Mario is much more popular than the bookies think.
Plus, vote to save is when you need a passionate group of fans behind you, and Dave doesn't have that. Factor in a bit of Josie-fan complacency, and anything could happen.
Speaking of the Ch4 site, luvvin' the "Lime In A Vase" vid.
Yay for part three!
