Ha ha, we've got him bang to rights. How do you feel about him winning and Bart Simpson (Scarlett) coming second?! Travesty eh!

That's twice you've insu!ted the rest of us. I don't believe having different opinions to yours makes us stupid or dim.
its not about having a different opinion, its about talking crap. ive made it clear why hes not 'faking it', why hes just being a rather immature, hormone filled young man. ive told you i can identify with that behaviour because i was once like that. ive seen others act like that, and they arent on camera. his actions are totally in line with such a young man, that does not make him 'fake'. 'fake' is a lazy cliche used by idiots. if the cap fits..... |

thats only your opinion, we all have ours and I think he went over the top showing off, and showing off I hate, its not the same as being entertaining or funny, it makes me feel cringey when some people dont know when to pack it in.
i told you, i was like that, i know many others who behaved like that, yes its cringeworthy, but it is totally in line with such a person. Quote:
He's 28 and he's also an actor. You know, one of those people who perform for a living.
every reality show we get this... 'they are actors'... but what actor, could stay in character 24/7 for at least 2 weeks? not even larry olivier could do that! adam really isnt that good an actor, nor is he really that bright. |

you obviously havnt seen him act. i made the point earlier that if he had entered as adam barton, his emmerdale character, no one would see the difference. every reality show we get this...

Emmerdale hasn't been his only acting role you know, and as for the 24/7 thing, have you been watching him 24/7? Do you have special access?

I tend to think he was over-reacting and putting it on in the earlier trials. This was confirmed on the Crit 'n' Mix trial he did with Martin on last night's show. Before going for the trial, Martin appeared to be petrified at the prospect, but calmed down when they got to the place where the trial took place. Obviously, Adam would have looked ridiculous in comparison if he had carried on his hysterical act, so he did the whole thing with no outbursts at all.

Is it not simply a case of the time spent in there and coming out the other side of so many trials has meant he's gradually been getting over his fearful feelings towards the critters - including spiders? Two weeks ago he would probably have not put that spider in his mouth, but this far in he's now prepared to push himself beyond what he'd normally do.
After coming out last night, Lisa said she'd jump and run at the sight of just one cockroach before doing the show but after having 100s of them crawl all over her for the trials she feels much more comfortable around creepy crawlies. It's the same thing with Adam. It just appears to be a bigger change with him as his reactions were more vocal to begin with. |

I've always enjoyed his and Martin's friendship. They make a great comedy duo. Great idea from Scarlett and whoever to pair them off and it worked a treat.
Of course he was over-reacting at the start, it's hardly unusual for someone to have a game plan. ![]() I'm pretty sure he wasn't the only one in this series either. Who cares. It's supposed to be a light entertaining game show, until Martin winds me up of course!

I was beginning t think they were an awfully nice bunch of people but Adam is an exception. He's too loud and reactionary. He also has a perpetual grin ...I'm always wary of perpetual grinners. He shrieks like a banshee and he's annoying.
Martin is just a me me.everything has to be about him. Not an attractive quality in a man of any age. |

nah... its just how he is, i mean, how could anyone keep up such a pretense?
nah hes not 'wonderful' in emmerdale, hes not really acting, hes being himself and that character is totally in line with the real guy in the jungle. in fact if you were told that it was adam barton, his emmerdale character who was in the jungle, no one would doubt it! hes not 'fake', hes just a rather immature young man, full of the joys of youth and hormones. People need to see it for what it is, I don't think Adam is fake at all! |

Exactly this, I think Adam is great, having a good laugh with the lads, a wind up merchant but in a good way but really supportive to everybody when needed! It's just lads banter and I should know because I brought up 4 sons!

I dont care if hes fake or not. Him and Martin are the only two with a bit of life about them, yhe rest are in the doldrums. And if he didnt do something it would be the Scarlet show.
I can see him getting my votes to win if Carol ans Martin go. |

I don't think he is faking it but he does come across as immature for his age.

Oh no, he was in Waterloo Rd, another soap. Funny how soap actors just do the rounds of soaps, very few make it into real acting.
You do realise there are many soap actors who have gone on to do exceptionally well don't you? In any case there's nothing wrong with soap actors who decide a steady pay cheque is more appealing than a life of uncertainty. |

of course i dont have 24/7 acces, neither does those who think hes playing a role.... THAT was the point i was making... d'uh! Quote:
Well I thought he was well fake in the telephone box. It really was quite pathetic, and obviously fake.

Oh so "you making it clear" means you are right....not in my world. Your opinion, not fact, regardless whether you can relate to him or not. No, your third attempt at insults just confirms your desperation...epic fail
now IF he didnt act like he does in the jungle, in reali life/other roles - id agree hes 'putting it on'.. but seriously, hes not that good an actor and he isnt all that bright. now if you can support your daft claim that 'he is fake' with a reasoned argument that can counter my point...please do... but i suspect all you are doing is trying to justify the idiotic 'hes fake' claim with absolutely nothing to support it. |

THAT was the point i was making... d'uh! do you know what 'fake' means?... have you never met an excitable young man before? the point is that he acts like that in real life, so how can that be 'fake'?... nah, thats a ridiculous, lazy , cliche term idiots use. exactly! ![]() no.... it means ive offered a reasoned explaination as to why i hold the views i do. ive done that, it clearly explains his actions, ive explained that i, and others i knew, have acted in that manner. ive also highlighted the fact that in other roles and in real life interviews he comes across in exactly the same way. now IF he didnt act like he does in the jungle, in reali life/other roles - id agree hes 'putting it on'.. but seriously, hes not that good an actor and he isnt all that bright. now if you can support your daft claim that 'he is fake' with a reasoned argument that can counter my point...please do... but i suspect all you are doing is trying to justify the idiotic 'hes fake' claim with absolutely nothing to support it.
