Hate him, hate her. Want him out. Talentless, egocentric, nasty man.

I think that he is a genuine, kind, likeable bloke and very funny.
Maybe you didn't see his 'spastic walk' he did on RI:SE a few years ago which Mark Durden Smith had to apologise for.

LOL...that's exactly what these cocky blokes do now and again. They put on the "Oh I'm really shy underneath really" act.

And it often works on gullible women like Lesley Garrett.

I lump him in with Trish and Shaun, far too desperate to win.

They are also delusional about their so called talent.

I have to agree with you to a certain extent. I have always liked him as a DJ and always thought of him as being a bit of a lad. I have no problem with his desire to win - however he is starting to come across as smug and cocky which isn't good.

His cockiness is unbearable. All the other contestants (bar Tricia and Shaun) have said at sometime that they cant sing or have weak voices. He has never said this and honestly believes he can sing. Instead of cringing like the rest when he watches back his performances he is smug and conceited. Even the ballad he messed up completely he put down to not breathing properly. Of course it is not helped by the ego massaging of the 'teachers' which they have to do to justify their position. Fred, Ray, Mel and Tim know their limitations and are not taken in by their reassuring praise. Colin Murrays reaction to Richard Parks comments showed him to be the scally that he is. He should know the game and play by the rules. Even when he was saved he had to go over and gesture to Richard Park. You can take the boy out of Belfast but you cannot..........

I just said to Mr Susie tonight that Colin was really up himself. I'd love to see him voted off, he'd be so annoyed! I think because he was associated with Edith Bowman, who won, he believes he should win as well.

Edith not only could sing but she deployed a pretty encyclopedic musical knowledge and understanding of how songs worked and she really interpreted everything she was given. She also covered a vast range of songs right accross teh spectrum from Shout to ballads and Coldplay. Colin has the benefit of being with Carrie hasn't done any of those things yet and has sung pretty much the same stuff.

If you could see him on live streaming right now I think you may agree with most of us. He doesn't even listen to Carrie properly, thinks he knows more than her.

I love the guy.

I hope he wins the show love his quote when he was told he had the same birthday as Richard parks "I didn't know bastards had birthdays.

Plus it helps he a die hard Liverpool fan meet him in the Sandon before one match a great guy.

I kinda liked him before he appeared on this.

This is the problem that I have with reality shows, I either dislike people who I used to like, or I really like people I didn't think I liked.

I love Tara in this, also like Angellica though she has a poor singing voice. Think Ray is great, though I had never seen him before this show.

He's probably ultra comptetitive and just can't bear the thought of not winning and therefore equalling Edith.

He was more annoying than usual last night. I can't take to him at all.

Personally I think he expects to win as Edith did last year and he has the backing and promotion of Radio 1 behind him.

Sadly... he probably will

I can't believe how arrogant he is, he really does think he'll be there in the final.

Where's that punch-a-celeb website. I've got to take my frustration out on someone.

Is it right he's been chosen to do the song with Sugababes/Girls Aloud?

Colin does indeed look like a an even smugger version of Ben Elton if that was possible. Interestingly, whilst Moylesy still supports Colin on his show he is also making a fair but of noise about Stubbsy now as well. Maybe even his fellow DJ's don't like him that much !!!
