or three years. so maybe when *two years* was posted, it was actually *three years* or even *four years*.

Ignoring your misplaced sarcasm I had a genuine point...How does anyone get a degree in only two years......If you don't know the answer then fair enough... ”

isn't the most likely thing that *two years* was a misquote?

I know it foregoes any kind of conspiracy, but its just a hunch...

Ok I'm confused. How do you know he only spent two years at university? According to Friendsreunited he graduated from Napier in 1992, (normal age for graduates) having finished at Stromness academy in 1989. ”

there we are then

1989/90
1990/91
1991/92

..yer three year scottish ordinary degree. all pesent and correct.

so what influence does he have exactly? over endemol specifically?

i mean, jeez - a presenter on Grampian TV huh? crikey.

Iain ”

Where does everybody get he's a presenter on Grampian TV from? He's not a presenter for Grampian, he works for Grampian TVs owners, STV. They both have their own seperate presenters and studios, with STV being much bigger than Grampian.

pretty much yes.

which company does Cameron actually work for anyway?

is it a company based in Orkney which happens to export fish to other european countries?

or is it some multinational based in Italy or wherever, who happens to employ people in places like orkney as their EMEA managers?

have you come across anything actually incriminating other than *he's a manager who earns £100k* that you read in a newspaper?

honestly mesotim, from previous experience, I thought you had more sense than this?

Neither his job nor his salary have any relevance to his right of entering the show or winning. However the way endermol portrayed him and the naivity he himself faked is relevant. In answer to you question I think he works for an american company caller North Landing.

from reading this forum, i was starting to think otherwise.

I think *the way endemol portrayed him* has been exaggerated beyond belief by posters posting here and subsequently having this opinion positively reinforced by countless other posts.

I *think* to a certain extent *all* the HMs are portrayed in a caricature kind of way.

LOL and that makes the fact that none of my Scottish friends have ever heard of him that bit more pathetic.

I've never heard of him before either.

He is supposed to do these shows, Scottish Action, Scotland Today and The Point. Scotland tonight is STV's main 6pm news/magazine show, but on Grampian we get North Tonight, so we don't get Julyan, thankfully.

Nor me, but then again maybe I have seen him but he didn't register. I would be hard pushed to name any of the North Tonight presenters either, mind you I did spot one pushing a pram in M&S the other week

You might end up getting him if you're unlucky. Of course him getting more work would have nothing to do with his brother because as we all know, neither of them wanted to gain anything out of Big Brother.

I was actually thinking along the lines of a gross myself, don't want to take any chances of running out of ammo, but that may take some handling and may spoil my aim.

An interesting opinion from someone who has confessed to not to have watched BB4 until the last couple of weeks?

Well ... hope you enjoy yourself, and please report back here.

Its a need to know thing - how is he really looked upon by the majority? Will anybody know him? Will he hear a single boo?

Have a great time

thats because A. I'm perceptive that way, B. have seen plenty of Big Brother to get the jist, and C. not paranoid.

do you believe Cameron's brother used his *influence* with Endemol to ensure favourable editing and clinch victory for the plucky orcadian fish trader?

You're wrong. It's entirely possible to talk about your achievements/abilities/skills without bragging about it. Do you never tell people about some of the more unique, impressive things you've done with your life? ”

I think you're getting mixed up with inadequates desperate to impress.

Do you think David Beckham tells people that he's won a European Cup winner's medal?
