Can't say I'm looking forward to the introduction of the loudmouth Cockney bore.

I think he will get on some peoples nerves both in and out of camp, think he will mine.

Didn't like the way some of his first words in camp were to Scarlett saying 'here's the winner right here'....or something along those lines.

Hopefully he will get on their nerves. They're all getting along too nicely IMO. Though they all come across very likeable, I'm finding myself missing Lady C.

I too find myself missing her but in a good way, can't stand the cantankerous old witch she ruined last years show with all her attention, seeking antics.

I love Danny Baker but the fact he is so outspoken might get peoples backs up.

I cant see him causing trouble along the lines of a lady c or janice dickinson. He always seems so jolly and decent whenever ive had his radio show on.

I'm on the fence about Danny but let's wait and see what he brings to camp.

Didn't Danny Baker have some health/ or cancer scare a few years back. I seem to remember him losing a lot of weight?

Yes, he had cancer about 5 years ago from which he made a full recovery (fingers crossed)

Three points on Danny Baker:

1. He doesn't suffer fools gladly (a quote from Ant yesterday)

2. He is not happy unless he is the centre of attention

3. Given 1 + 2.. he will make a great contestant, for the wrong reasons (!)

Well I like him. Carol seems to have chosen a terrible team for him.

Danny moans that only thing everyone knows about him these days is that he's a cancer survivor... but this is all he talks about

I'm sorry he had cancer, but he seems to be milking it for all it's worth these days.

That's just a nonsense. When he was first diagnosed there were loads of interviews with him and he refused to go into depth about it. In fact, he said one of the greatest things I've ever seen by a 'celebrity' in print: 'I'm not fighting this, the qualified doctors are fighting it on my behalf. I'm not dwelling on it. Move on with the questions because the doctors are fighting it on my behalf'.
Criticise him for being a loudmouth, but there is no way he's ever traded on his cancer.

He's not outspoken - he's just bloody noisy and loves the sound of his own voice. He's said nothing of worth!

Danny Baker seems to have quite remarkable delusions of grandeur considering he's mostly known to the public for harassing wives on their doorsteps while clutching a box of budget washing powder, presenting Pets Win Prizes and drinking pints with Chris Evans in 1995 and helping enable Gazza's tragic slide into alcoholism all in the name of some good 'laddish hi-jinks'.

The guy seems to think he's some kind of national treasure. He is very much mistaken. A boorish oaf. A blow hard. The way he was celebrating that trial win just now, punching the air like he had won the FA Cup was cringe inducing television. His last 'contribution' to popular culture? An advisor on Chris Evans Top Gear, one of the biggest disasters in the history of television.

An insufferable tit of the very worst kind with his 'cockney sparrow' routine. Piss off Danny. Hardly anyone even knew who you were when you walked in.

I'm usually so relaxed i'm practically comatose and much winds me up but Danny Baker is one of the few people on earth who I just cannot abide at all.

He is the embodiment of most of my least favourite traits in one horrible package.

He and the show got what they wanted in people talking about him and how he has stirred it up, and I would think he's there until near the end now

So we can look forward to plenty of arguing until he actually goes

Didn't like the way he was rubbing it in when his team won tonight

Rubbish. He's probably best known for script writer on original TFI, 606, Saturday radio 5live show & Cradle to the Grave - funny & irreverent guy

Sorry didn't mean to quote you!
