I cannot believe it. I thought he was awful on The Apprentice but I actually wouldn't mind him winning

In the past few days he's proved he has depth and he isn't argumentative which says a lot for this series of CBB

I've never watched the Apprentice but Luisa and James have been great CBB housemates.

As it stands at the moment - he really is the deserving winner IMO.

I like Natasha too but James has been a big player and has done just about everything right. He's a 'normal', down to earth, good guy IMO.

Yeah I really didn't like him on the apprentice and wanted him to go home most weeks, but he's come across really well on BB. He tries to calm situations down and won't be dragged into arguments, but he also is not fading into the background.

The same thing happened with Luisa, I thought she was nightmare on the apprentice, but I actually warmed to her on BB. I think it's because they are both quite bright and realise that the person who shouts the loudest doesn't win the argument and they think things through more before the say something. Luisa did get involved in arguments, but she was smarter than the other housemates and they didn't know how to comeback at her without just shouting.

James following Luisa in the hated in The Apprenticeto popopular in CBB.

2 for 2. Apprentice hms have been far better than the Geordie Shore, Chelsea, TOWIE crowd.

James to win. It's secured it for me now.

I'm liking James. I didn't think I would but he seems to have really grown up since The Apprentice.

He just seems to show his body off a lot. I don't know whether he is being sincere or playing a game.

I like him, he makes me laugh - I don't think he means to but he does. And I love his relationship with Austin. I also love the way he has bent over backwards to try and understand and get on with Farrah. Sweet guy.

He hasn't done anything though. He's cringily doted on the poisonous Farrah all the time and walked around with no top on. That's about it really. Get the impression his gameplan is to be as nice and naked as possible. Sounds like it's working from the comments on here :S

I never said he was obsessed with her I said he doted on her which is to say to give her way more time than she deserves. He's being too nice so he feels he needs to 'get along' with everyone.

I guess it makes life easier if there's a possibility to be on good terms with people you live with rather than be on the edge.

I really like him and would be very happy if he won. I didn't like him on The Apprentice though.

I'm assuming his tan is fake. You can't stay that dark for that long without topping up and they haven't had the weather. Has he been seen St Tropez-ing or is a personal tanning operative one of the famous CBB "riders"?

I liked Scoop... He did look like professor Zoidberg when he took his top off though!

I didn't expect to like him but he has shown himself to be a genuinely nice guy, fair minded with the intelligence to handle disputes without shouting and swearing.

Him and Janice are my top two.

The celebs get so many unseen perks its untrue.The women especially must have a pack of experts go in on eviction days to help them with hair, make up and outfits.

I don't know, James was always a bit on the tanned side, even on The Apprentice. In the first week of CBB, quite a few of the HMs were sunbathing (I think the temp was only 20c), but that may be enough to keep you a certain colour.

His tan looks more natural than fake. It's not orangey like Danny's from BB16 was at times. James is closer to Cristian colour (tbh he was a quarter indian)
