Yeah it's great to see that loads more people are starting to like him now and he doesn't have anyway near the amount of haters he had a few weeks ago. I'm actually starting to think he could possibly win again, he has always had the biggest fanbase after Gina and Dexter, and I really can't see either of them winning. He seems to be picking up more fans by the day as well, so fingers crossed!

Dan is now 2nd favourite with the bookies http://www.oddschecker.com/tv/big-brother/winner In good company with Gina at the top

Yes, I have loved Dan from the beginning and he has always been my winner. I think that with Dexter and Gina constantly in the limelight and always up for eviction that Dan could sneak through and he will also get the gay vote too!

Loving Dan the man!

Dexter being at risk of eviction this week will worry some punters. With Wolfy gone Dan has lost his one certain nomination and seems to be the housemate most respected by the others.

Yes, great news that Dan has gone up to the 2nd favourite now. He is easing up the ratings just nicely at the moment, which is great. Plus he seems the voice of reason in the house most of the time too! Great chance for Dan to win I think!

Get fed up of the ridiculous hate Dan gets on the forum. God forbid him looking out for his friend.

I know - he's been fantastic with Hazel and he's just the sort of friend you'd want if you were in there

Hope he gets to the end and wins the thing - great housemate and a great guy

Same here, some posters on this forum appear really immature and will slate him for anything. At least he tries to do the right thing.

Ikr. I actually thought tonight was an excellent night for him. He was so lovely towards Hazel, completely respected her and looked out for her & I adore their friendship.

On board & checking in...I reserve the right to change my mind...

Would be a worthy winner

Ever since I lost my mind in the very early days and posted in the Jackie Travers & Twins' AT I vowed to hang fire and not post in an AT until I was very, very sure. :-o I have even toyed with the idea of sawing off my hands with a blunt tool, to prevent further foolish forays.

I paid little heed to Dan initially and bought a little into all the posts that he was manipulative & bitchy, for a bit. I figured they couldn't all be wrong, eh, so I started looking out for it. But I'm afraid I saw no evidence of that all. Often to the contrary.

He's a good friend, open & honest, almost to a fault. Sure he's not perfect but i think some people just have this impression of him & they just run with it. When he's happy they say he's smug, when he's giving counsel he's a manipulative bitch.

One of my favourite lol moments here was the day Gina & Dex came back from the SH. I read the posts before I watched the clip. The posts would lead you to believe Dan was seething. One even posted 'Ha ha Dan's face!' Watched the clip. Dan's back was to the camera. And he wasn't annoyed in the least.

Well, anyway, I've seen enough consistently good things about Dan to confidently stick my flag here. He's actually gone from being not my cuppa tea to being one of my favourite HMs ever.

Wow just watched BBOTS from last night, and Dan got an absolute slaughtering from the audience and callers. Its a shame, I dunno what he's done to deserve such dislike and so little respect. In the conversation a caller called Gina upfront (which she is) and Dan devious and sly, when he is just as upfront with housemates - hence getting criticised for having a go at HMs too much... He can't win

It's so hard to be a Dan fan on this forum isn't it?

If Sam and Sophie pick Dan to join them, would Sophie be evicted over him?

I think Dan would unfortunately. A lot of people seem to dislike him.

Yeah fingers crossed, Dan doesn't get picked (sod's law he will be) Because he'd be a guranteed gonner (and leave to plenty of boos at that if he's against Sam and Sophie who will get cheers)

I'm confident in the fact that it'll be the Twins who get chosen to join them in the safe house, or even Callum. Dan will be fine

At the time of writing this post Dan is at the bottom of the least favourite HM poll, quite the change from a few weeks back when everyone seemed to hate him.

hi all thought id come join u seeing as i get slaughtered out there for liking dan

ive liked him from day one hes honest flaws and all and for people saying hes palying a game i dont se how

he actually said he doesnt want to be leader in there and i believe him

i think hes genuine and real

^ Hey Nice to have a fellow supporter. The main forum is ridiculous. I've just seen a post where the poster claimed Dan was 'so sour faced' last night because he realised Gina was popular...

Um I'm pretty sure Dan is one of the few housemates who's been friends with Gina all the way through the process....

The blind accusations are getting ridiculous.

Fingers crossed Sophie and Sam don't pick Dan! I feel like its unlikely but there is a chance he would go in, if Sophie wants the Twins and Sam wants Callum so as a compromise they take Dan.

i hope not aswell im hoping its tetwins or dan is stuffed

yep gina and dan have been friends from day one i think he was just upset about jackie

I would like Dan to win with Sam and Callum being in the Final 3, i kinda like them about the same but the other two would have no chance of winning, Dan may have a chance of stopping there being an undeserving winner like Gina/Dexter

Good on Dan for intervening when Charlie tried to start on Callum. Regardless of what you think of either of them she did seem to switch from Daft Drunk to Mean Drunk and just wanted to pick at Callum. Considering Callum doesn't really have much support there, with Sam in the safe house, I think Dan saw where it was going and stepped in.

I agree.

But of course certain forumer's are accusing him of getting on with Callum because Jackie got evicted and having a sly dig and Hazel and that because he doesn't particularly get on well with Callum, he shouldn't stick up for him.

The guy can't do anything right. They even insult his hair and his boyfriend.
