He may have been witty elsewhere (although I've never heard him) but here he just drones on. And he has a very healthy view of him own importance -reminding his team in the spa that it was all down to him they are there. What's saved him is that Martin is so awful that the campers have accepted him and turned on Martin. He has spoiled it for me as was enjoying the interaction between this group.
Not all of us want to see hate and crying all the time; we want to see lovely human beings doing fun things. Which is why I've turned off Big Brother - because it's so hateful. |

Sorry again, where is all this hate and crying that Danny is supposed to have caused??
One immature woman playing the "win at all costs" playbook page by page and it wasn't even aimed at him Er. that's it. |

It was implied. Baker was lucky not to get nicked for threatening behaviour. Baker is from Deptford, not Bermondsey.
If Baker is so nice, why did the crew keep and pass on the video of the incident? I heard they were hoping it would lead to his dismissal from the programme. |

I've never liked him but he's doing ok so far. Loved the way he stood up to sore loser, whinging Martin.

Danny Baker's a nice bloke. I listen occasionally to his saturday morning radio show on 5 Live, and he's very entertaining.
He's not witty as such, just very freindly when he's on air, and he never stops talking. He always hands airtime over to the public when they phone up, and lets them waffle on about whatever they are talking about. He does big himself up a bit from time to time, but he doesn't go overboard. I never saw last nights episode, which was his first edit, so to speak....but, I think he'll be a good campmate, not a trouble maker. The stuff he said in the live trial was completely non-malicious mucking about. It was the homes under the hammer bloke that went a bit crazy over nothing. |

I've found him to be more or less the same as he is on his show thus far. I'm certainly not disappointed with him. |

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. He annoys the f*&^ outta me; always has done. |

I've always liked Danny, from when he was writing for the NME, through to his radio work and writing in general.
I like the way he seems to be able to talk on any subject and make it interesting and most of all very funny. I've got tickets to see his show next year, which should be interesting. |

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'.
. As for your comments about drinking with Gazza, not only are they inaccurate (he rarely went on drinking binges with Gazza, why do you think it's always the same picture the tabloids use when they bring it up?), but they'd still be incredibly stupid even if they were correct. I hope you've never been out drinking (having fun) with anyone who 20 years later becomes an alcoholic, or I might have to deduce that you "helped enable their tragic slide". |

Danny played a blinder tonight, taking everything in the right spirit
As for Martin, at least he wasn't gloating about winning the task like he mistakenly thought Danny did. No wait, let me rephrase that... |

I was quite looking forward to seeing Danny Baker in IAC, but I'm finding him really irritating, almost as much as Martin.

I think he's got such a joy for life, perhaps that's because after the cancer it feels like a second chance I don't know. He's really coming across well. Hope he stays in a while.

Have to agree, the man has been through a lot recently, all the best Danny, you should never have left so early with some in there, one in particular who has done nothing.
