Do you know if this is true as it would be lovely to see him on TV again.
Well he knew that he had supposedly been booked - but of course they can always renege on these things so he decided not to spread the word too much

If Emma has announced it then surely that must be a hopeful sign ... ?

Thanks. I was just checking as she said something before and Ben was not on.

Hopefully he will be on the panel and not shoved in the audience or part of some silly sketch where he gets made fun of.

We should play this by ear until Ben tweets about it though, as they've said he's going to do it before and then someone else was on instead,

I hope it is not some silly sketch either. It sounded like he was going on the panel with Amy Childs and Frankie Cocozza.

I see no tweet from Ben yet so who knows.

Well he tends not to tweet until last minute usually so it's probably a bit early yet. I will keep checking.

He's so much more articulate than either as well. Hope they give him chance to speak.

As good a reason as any to support her

I remember the incident where Ben was at the ball as a judge and one of the girls had "sexually molested him in a lift" because he tweeted about it, got to say he didn't sound very pleased at the time but he's obviously forgiven her now if they're friends lol

Darling ... I am not at all sure that he would go as far as that ...

It may well all be a little bit one-sided ... we'd better wait to hear his side of that particular episode, I think ...

I think Ben did well with his answers on Caroline - just the right approach - did not really confirm a friendship with her and thankfully did not feel the need to slate her either. Lovely to see him on the show and hope he is on again soon.

No maybe friend was a bit extreme. I thought he handled that well though, he'd been put on the spot and obviously hadn't expected it.

Ben would be a marvellous diplomat ... he never really leaves anyone's nose out of joint ... he just knows how to put things ... in a way that is kind and tactful and gentle and ever so slightly vague ...

I would have thought 'friendly acquaintance' ... but maybe 'friend' is indeed the truth of it (or maybe they are secretly betrothed and are keeping it under their hats for as long as they can get away with it ... )

Lol!!! Oh bless him.

Jo is correct though, he does seem to have lost weight. I hope he's eating properly and looking after himself. ( I
sound like his mum saying that lol)

Oh of course ... yes, she did, didn't she ... ?

Didn't he say something about if it were true, it must be down to stress or poverty ... ?

All true ... of him ... and almost everyone I know ... myself included ... oh Lord, how we all struggle ...

It is not usually visible on television ... but if he is getting thinner the result will be that his legs will be even more gorgeous ...

Yes from memory he does have nice, long legs. Perfect for being a male model, I'm surprised he doesn't get more modelling work actually.

Hello there Peeps

I hope you dont mind me popping my head in - Ive always loved Ben, he is one of my favourite housemates ever - and after seeing him last night on Bots I realised how much he is missed. My daughter said the same thing this morning.

Anyways I thought I would say a hello to you all as I know some of you very well from the Court Thread!

Hello Frillynix.

I agree Ben is missed. It says a lot that they still ask him to go on BBOTS from time to time, I think other than Josie he's the only HM from his series who does it.
