Major Charles Ingram Just Loves Jade !!!
From the Wiltshire Gazette and Herald, a story to warm the hearts of even the most cynical amongst us ...
'Charles Ingram knew nothing of reality TV and was persuaded to do the show by his wife, Diana, who is a great fan. They met executives of the TV company and Mr Ingram's face went blank when the name Jade Goody was mentioned. He said: "I had never heard of her, but after the meeting but before recording started I happened to watch a programme about her in the series Tabloid Tales. I was horrified. I couldn't believe what I had let myself in for. She came over as being rude and obnoxious." But there was no backing out and, in May, Jade arrived at Easterton. Mr Ingram said: "We put up with each other for the first few days until it became her turn to organise the house in her own way. We then had a bit of a row. Well, that sounds a bit two-sided. In fact, she was on transmit and I was on receive. That cleared the air between us and from then on we got on like a house on fire. I haven't seen the programme but they shot about 120 hours of footage so they can make just about anything out of it. I hope it is funny, because it was great fun. "If asked would I do it again, yes, I would. Perhaps not with Jade, because we've done that, but certainly with someone else. I think we learned a great deal from each other. Jade has been through the mangle in her life and she has come through it. She has far more common sense and energy than anyone gives her credit for....' Read the full article here. |

Also Jade is the cover girl for the launch of the new Hello! magazine insert (I didn't catch its name) - and there were a couple of ads for that too tonight. |

Source: http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/article/ds12066.html As it has been heavily promoted by C4 and various magazines - it could be that Wife Swap will break the record for a non-BB related programme featuring a BB contestant? We'll have to wait and see! |

Charles Ingram may be a bit of a lying, cheating, twisting, conniving upper class bar steward but I'm kinda starting to like him!

I have not really read about all this as it does not affect Katie-but it seems a great dilemma whether to actually show it?
I am unclear -not that my views matter much-on this. I guess they have to weigh it up-i am a bit dim on it Well as I've written it I may as well post it-maybe it helps with the majors rehabilitation-if as it seems to show him in a good light. I guess the top people have to decide somehow?:yawn: :yawn: |

It's one of the Picks of the Week in the Sunday Telegraph - Coughing major is described as being matched with "professional nincompoop" ex-BB contestant Jade.
A whole load of new "Jade-isms" (Malapropisms to the grown-ups) were also quoted. Jade love, it's not funny when you do it on purpose! :yawn: |

Jeff was the est a real nice guy I think Jade was a natural with those kids too. I think I would prefer to live with Jade and Jeff than the Ingrams, even if they do argue a lot. Caz |

I enjoyed that but I was left feeling that there was a lot more that we could of seen ....
It was quite amusing that Jade had got her point over, but neither actually realised it as they were too busy shouting at each other ! Jade has not changed that much from when she was in the house ...... |

It all came across as a bit contrived to me and I didn't care for Jeff too much honestly. Jade is difficult but why has he got to diss her to everyone all the time? Its not funny and its not clever mate - especially as she's the one with the money and the profile .... :sleep:

She is however pregnant with Jeff's child, and it does him some credit that he has stood by her. If he didn't, goodness knows the upbringing the poor mite would have.

I've got it on tape so I'll have another look but I don't remember any instances of bullying, certainly not to Jeff.
Perhaps you could point them out.

Standing "in someone's face" and repeatedly shouting abuse/criticisms at the top of your voice despite their attempts to stand up for themselves is a classic bullying technique - Major Ingrams clearly recognised it from the Army. Jade did it in the BB House, in the Ingram house, and from what Jeff said, she probably does it to him too.
Darling criticised Jeff for diss-ing the cash cow (goose/golden eggs if preferred). Imho, he disses her because she's not very nice. Even though she has money (shock!). |

The playing Millionaire in the pub with people coughing was a classic moment.
