Nick's privileged background
Has his family really got stables, tennis courts, swimming pool etc or was he just winding the others up ?

I think he has. The night that they went in my son said 'oh spot the private school/boarding school lad'.

He does give off that public school boy image alright . If he is from a privileged background that's something else kept pretty quite .

I thought it was clear from his VT and everything else that he's said in the house. He's obviously from a privileged background. I have no reason to believe he was lying about the stables, etc. Nor do I think that that would wind up the other HMs.

Also he does seem like the type, and weirdly I like him anyway. |

Me too I thought it was clear that he was doing nothing, because he could.

I like him too, but it doesn't surprise me. Wealthy people can be decent sorts, just like anyone, and you can hardly judge somebody for being born into wealth, can you?

True, I meant more the lazy ass part. But I can't really judge there lol I do think he is an interesting introspective type guy my fav at the moment.
Yes, he does seem like the type to live off his parents. And I suppose that could be seen as an indictment of his character, but he's only young, so I just take him as I find him; a pretty nice chap.

To me, Nick seems to be a bit of a Boris Johnson, Gina seemed to me to be a Hyacinth Bucket.

The difference between Nick & the character that was Gina Rio, is she was totally inconsistent with her accent & her back story. I believe Nick has had a privileged upbringing & like him as he seems to be a good lad underneath the 'I am not likeable' facade.

Further down in article it names Nicholas Henderson ( James /David Henderson's son ???) as stable boy for a Cheltenham Gold Cup trainer I have liked him from the beginning except for when he was entwined with Jade didn't he say (very early on )he worked for 2 years as a jockey and regretted giving it up ? I think he may have told Adjoa this |

He made it perfectly clear in his VT that he has never worked because he doesn`t have to & didn`t he also say he tried it out for 5 mins by getting a job in MacDonalds & he felt he was too good for that. Seeing his social awkwardness around girls, I agree he is likely from an all male public school.
