He just seems so boring. Have they got their moneys worth from him? The series looks like it never even needed that big name anyway.

If the rest could get a shot at some air time rather than the Lee/Casey/Jasmine fiasco then he may be worth the pay cheque.

We've hardly see much of anyone else aside from those three and Luisa.

I don't find him boring at all. He's just not as loud as some of them. It seems the louder you are on BB the more airtime you get.

Because all the focus is on Lee, Jasmine & Casey, we're not getting much chance to see him so it's difficult to say.

I find his segments more entertaining than Ollie, Sam, Lionel, Jim & Linda's.

he's not going to come out all guns blazing in the first couple of rounds, he will get a foothold and then take over in the second half of the fight with his superior stamina

It's probably good that he's been reduced to nothing but a few moments of incoherent mumbling about nothing in particular. Anything to stop another lecture from him and getting the show in bother. lol

Yes it was a slight waste, him and Sam are the deadwood this series.

I'd rather Evander's incoherent mumbling than Lee's incoherent fumbling all day long

He caused the biggest kerfuffel of the series.

His homophobic comments gave the show the most coverage etc so I'd say it's money well spent.

a bit of homophobia and racism always gets the show going, Jim needs to up his game or Channel 5 will be wanting half his fee back

I dont find Evander boring at all. I was lol when he was reeling all his kids names off. All beginning with E and his dancing was funny. Bear in mind that the hi lites show has been focussed on the young sexpots. Not really giving the others much of a look in.

He was never going to be the life and soul of the party with incessant chat, he's hardly known for his conversational skills. So they got what the paid for.

I agree shame the producers think we should be all interested in the triangle bollox or Dappy's pathetic antics.

He is an absolute disgrace fathering all those children, which he then fails to support .

The guy is supposed to have amassed a fortune of $250 Million and is now bankrupt and failing to pay his child support .
