yeah..ok..rather a controversial stance I know..but I really dont dislike any of them. I have my favs...(Phil, Daniella), but there is'nt anyone that I dislike yet.

Mind you, in all the major various reality shows ive seen since BB1, the only people I've activly disliked are
Stuart ,Jonny, Darren Day and Adele. But I guess thats another topic

Oh dear - feeling in a minority group yet?

Over 24 hours and still only you it seems - changed your view yet?

Thought I'd reply to get you back near the top...

Hi This is my first ever post on this excellant board although I have been following discussions with interest.

I think this year, the contestants are a far more likeable bunch and the only one I am really beginning to despise is Fash. I think he's incredibly patronising and egotistical.He obviously sees himself as the natural leader of the group even though hes shown himself to be a bit of a wimp during his task and fear of heights. I thought the comment he made about Waynes task was bang out of order.

All the others seem nice although Sian and Toyah will probably start annoying soon. My fave is Phil although I'd never heard of him before the show. He seems like a decent chap and a looker too.

MY opinions at this early stage

Wayne-Ive never really liked him but have found myself warming to him apart from the stage show bit.Excellent bitcher but also stands up for himself to peoples faces at the risk of being unpopular
Phil-Major laid back and I can see why hes the favourite to win.
Antony-Didnt think Id like him on it as he ussually comes across as me,me,me but I think he seems a likeable person and is mucking in well.
Chris-Trying to be a bit too Darren Dayish but he hasnt done anything to annoy
John-Embarrassing,taking this whole thing way too serious!!!
Danniella-Down to earth,likeable but the tears wont be appreciated for long.
Linda-Getting on well without pushing herself forward I feel she could be the strongest female in there.
Toyah-Dont dislike her but wish she would lighten up a little likes to be in control and I found her embarassing in the stage show,it was supposed to be a laugh wasnt it?
Sian-Never really liked her but she hasnt done anything wrong but feel she is a bit of a yes person with no backbone to stand up for herself fearing she may not be popular.
Catalina-Think she did well on her task whether the crocs mouths were taped up or not.Feel she may become a bit too sulky and hard work.Danniella asked if she was OK coz she was a bit hyper and she snapped at her and then bitched about her.First one to turn phsyco!

Let me know what your first thoughts are.
No doubt as the politeness drops over the next week the true characters will be reveiled and all our minds will be changed several times!
Oh Ant and Dec-Brill as usual.Taking the mick .

We share favorites again Metafis....things are balancing out again....

Sadly I can't claim to like everyone, it's just not in my nature and I think it would ruin the show for me if I liked them all....

Well, I feel in a total muddle with this lot. Started watching it with the usual preconceptions a lot of which have been turned on their heads -

Fash - expected to really like him, - although did feel sorry for him over the height thing (as a vertigo sufferer) but find him far too serious, too patronising, too critical of the others. Seems to have had a sense of humour bypass.
Sian - she has always irritated me big time (one of the celebs on my list for a slapping) - but she's just boring, couldn't be bothered to slap her anymore.
AWT - expected him to really annoy me - but have found him very placid and easy going, friendly and a good blender.
Toyah - was a vague heroine of mine back in the early '80, so expected to like her. However, find her a bit false and over keen and again seems to be lacking in the humour stakes.
Wayne - expected him to really, really annoy me - and he did at the beginning with his constant laugh. But - now find that I'm warming to him more and more. Thought he was great with the rats, love the way he bitches, but also saw a very sweet sensitive side to him when talking about dolphins today.
Catadoodah - had no preconceptions about her because I'd never heard of her. Keep changing my mind, but think my first impression may be right and she is simply a pretty bimbo - and not a very pretty one at that.
Chris - expected to dislike him, but find I've got no feelings either way - why does he talk as though he has adenoid problems?
Daniella - expected to totally dislike her, but find her honest and down to earth. Hope she lasts, as I think she's likely to be a catalyst for any rows.
Phil - didn't know much about him, but think he's great. Very relaxed, very funny and quite fanciable in a mucky sort of way.
Linda - is the only one that I feel the same about now as I did at the beginning. Think she's great. Very down to earth, no pretensions, chatty, friendly and looks bloody good for a woman of 41.

thanks!

Im quite easy going, I find it hard to hate anyone, unless they've commited a henious crime.
someone once said (some tv show, but I like the quote)
'its far easier to start hating than it is to stop hating'.
I like that view and think its true, so I try to not let hate become a factor when looking at people I dont really know on TV.
as far as 'dislike' goes, yes....I can dislike people.
Ive 'gone off' Fash a bit, I think he means well, but I felt he was a bit harsh on Wayne.

but really. still noone I activly dislike.
