I rather like Dean and I feel sorry for for him for keep getting voted to do trials. He did extremely well tonight, no way could I have coped with the height, especially the last two stars where the castle board moved.
I think it’s unfair when viewers do this. They’ve done it before, the same person up for the trials night after night. The others get an easy ride when viewers do this. Most of them have never even done one trial.

Credit where credit's due, Dean did very well with that trial and without all the screaming shock.

The ones I like are Colleen, JK, Alan, Danny, Oti and Barry, Can’t abide Richard Coles at all, not keen on Maura.
Dean is selfish, lazy and sly. He managed a couple of small logs, Jane had a sack full. Keep him in doing the hard chores.

I agree, Dean is coming across as quite immature, although I do like watching him do the trials 🤣

I wasn’t convinced Dean was fast asleep. Danny claimed the new bed as he’d been sleeping in a hammock and had a sore back. Dean asked Danny if he would swap places and let him have the new bed and thankfully Danny refused. Then Dean decided to lie on it anyway for a nap and conveniently missed the fact that firewood was needed although it was his task. He has an unpleasant selfish streak that’s coming to the fore.

I agree with you and I don't believe him anyway, he didn't want to help get the wood, probably realised it hadn't gone down well and tried to make himself look like the victim.

I think Alan's a nice guy and didn't like the way he spoke to him.

Grannynannywanny Mon 25-Nov-24 17:48:42

The screaming is dreadful Smileless2012. He was very unpleasant the way he spoke to Alan. I’m sure he thought because it was dark and they were out of the main camp area for firewood that the cameras wouldn’t catch him. I think he showed his true colours in that moment.

I hadn't thought of that Grannynannywanny but at least we'd be spared the attention seeking behaviour and screaming.

I enjoy watching it and chatting about it on WhatsApp with my grandchildren. We do the same with Strictly. Dean’s attention seeking behaviour is annoying. I was hoping he’d be first to leave until my granddaughter commented last night that would suit him. He’d go straight to the luxury hotel and have a lovely time while the rest of them are still in camp.

Richard and Maura were comical together in the junk yard and seem to be blending in well to the main camp.

My vote is for Colleen Rooney- seems a nice girl. Wayne and she were dating from their school days. So obviously, married for love, not money

Aveline Mon 25-Nov-24 17:16:35

I reckon Maura could win although I'd prefer Richard.
Can't get over how huge Oti has become. Hard to believe she was a lithe dancer.

Smileless2012 Mon 25-Nov-24 17:11:56

I think Richard could win. Dean's spoiling it for me. I wish the public would stop voting for him for the trials then at least we wouldn't have to listen to him screaming.

Aveline Mon 25-Nov-24 17:02:03

The celebrities are paid what they're worth to the TV company. I'm still watching because I like the social side of it. I record the programmes so I can fast forward through the adverts and trials. Finding out the personalities when there's nowhere for them to hide is interesting. I usually prefer the older campmates as there's usually more too them. Currently, I like Richard Coles and dislike Colleen Rooney -famous for being famous.

Astitchintime Mon 25-Nov-24 07:53:07

Not me! I wouldn't waste the energy on it. And the fees the celebrities get paid are exorbitant.

Louella12 Mon 25-Nov-24 07:24:40

Yep, Dean. He will probably be the first one evicted. Hopefully.

Liz46 Mon 25-Nov-24 07:21:48

I started to watch it but have had enough now.

GrannyGravy13 Mon 25-Nov-24 07:18:12

I dip in and out.

Do you mean Dean the DJ, he is rather a screamer.

Allsorts Mon 25-Nov-24 06:34:52

Is anyone watching this? I’ve switched on now and then as like the camp chats. There is one guy in, never heard of him, however don't know most of them, who seems of very fragile mental health.
