Nice to see you over from the Strictly thread, Terry. Who's your favourite this year? Sadly Joan Collins and Cilla Black are both no-shows once more.
OMG Matthew Wright

I think Matthew will be interesting viewing. He's not shy of having a strong opinion and can easily shut someone up if he's had enough of them (my dad thinks he's a dictator because he sometimes ignores and shuns opposing opinions to his) lol.”

He shuts them up by hanging up a phone on them, it will be interesting to see how he does it face to face.

Both likeable personality traits.

This is what I'll be interested in seeing, as I said earlier, it's alright being cocky in a position of power...............

I know they're not the most positive of attributes, but I meant from an entertainment perspective. I liked Eric Bristow last year cause he just said what he felt, and refrained from fawning over Helen like some of the others. To live with might have been hard, but to watch was funny.I'd much rather a celeb display some negative attributes of their personality (alongside some positive ones obv) then display none at all.

Matthew's dressed like a lesbian on a watercolour painting mini-break. (Nicked from Frankie Boyle, sorry)

Am agreeing with you Gilesb. I thought last night he was setting himself up as the 'scaredy' one to get plenty of air time. not liking him so far but I'll keep an open mind.
I think Matthew Wright will be the Kerry Katona of the series. She won it, IMO, by pretending to be scared of absolutely everything when she was actually as hard as nails. Makes a change to have a man as the baby of the camp, going on a 'journey', getting all hysterical and being picked for tasks only to complete them and being roundly congratulated.
He may have blubbed after the first task but he didn't flinch when those big snakes were actually put on him, and he got on with it.

I don't! He's a cocky git. I hope he gets voted to do every trial and they all involve lots and lots of creep crawlies.
