I thought it was quite funny that Tim went up and confronted him, shook his hand and said, 'Hi, I'm the ginger ****'.

I'm not surprised that he's still got a funny on with Alex and his family. It wouldn't surprise me if his dad didn't have a go at him. After all, Alex was asked about what he thought of GN's gay jibes at the press conference, and he said, 'It's probably wishful thinking on Norton's part'.

I must admit, he did do one funny joke, about the HM's selling their stories to the sunday papers. Then saying, 'Jonny's been offered a 3 figure fee by the papers - 4 pound 10 to deliver them'.

They’re references to an excellent TV show Pistach, called "The League of Gentlemen". Several of the freakish characters in it bear a quite scarey resemblance to Alex’s dad.

BTW, Norton is woefully late with that joke/observation. It’s been doing the rounds for a while now.

I see Tim’s other remark to GN was "You’re that cowardish gay bloke". All that education at Daddy‘s expense and he goes around just making up nonsense words as it suits him.

As soon as i saw alex's dad, i wondered if he kept toads

What I find annoying about the Norton situation, is this. For weeks, Norton was making the most vile comments about certain HM's, like Jade resembling a pig, making gay jibes with regard to Tim and Alex, saying stuff like Alex/Sandy/Tim were like lovers, plus other horrible things about the HM's. This was done night after night, in the name of comedy, and to boost his ratings.

But, if any of the HM's, while in the house, had happened to utter his name, and start chatting about him. For example, making jokes about his sexuality, or slagging his show off etc, BB would have cut the sound for legal reasons in case of libel/slander.

So, it seems to me, that as long as you've got a television show of your own, and are promoting a C4 production, you can say what you like regardless of how hurtful or untrue those comments are.

Well how about this - I actually beat GN to it - when Alex shaved off his moustache, I remarked how much he looked like Herr Lipp from LOG!!!

See, I may be an Alex fan, but I DO still have a sense of humour!

You seem to have an unhealthy obsession with Harvey Denton. Are you sure your name isn't Natterjack not Fatherjack?

Jonny always reminds me of Herr Lipp

I think Graham Norton gave the HM's a lot of publicity and they should take it in good humour (and thank him when the bank balance starts building). I think that most of the stuff he did on the HM's was really funny.

Let's not forget GN is a professional entertainer and the HM's put themselves in the spotlight by agreeing to be on BB in the first place.

Yes you're right it was good publicity both ways, everyone's a winner!

Most people I have spoken to have really enjoyed this series of GN though..
