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.

So why not have Wayne Rooney on the programme then? Oh wait, he doesn't need the publicity!
Re the 'sisterhood'- I like Jane and GK and Maura I just don't subscribe to the 'Colleen is great' mantra.

Wayne has saud he'd love to go on but hasnt been asked. No doubt he'll be there if he can get time off from the day job.

I think Wayne might want to catch the next flight out.
Plymouth Argyle lost 6 - 1 last night. 🙊

Oh no!

BIL will be upset!

Galaxy, another important point. My adult children are heading for 40 and a number of couples in their friendship group have separated. 50-50 care is seen as the norm. It enables many fathers to avoid any maintenance despite the fact the mothers went part time etc to become prime carer.
One of these fathers was largely absent till he abandoned his children and their mum, for a younger model. He’s now 50-50

Liking it this year, but my least favourite is Jane. I'd really like to see her evicted first.
She’s so sour 🙄 imagine she can be very nasty too.

petal53 Thu 28-Nov-24 00:04:39

If you divorce and the father is a vaguely functioning human being you will not see your children for 50% of the time…..

Oh how true those words are.
The father only appears to need to be able to breathe and he’s awarded shared care.

Anyway, back to I’m a Celebrity………I like Dean, with all his imperfections, I just like him.
I like Reverend Richard too, and Oti, and GK Barry.
I don’t like Jane.

Yes, yes, yes.
Men use this to prevent having to pay their ex wife and often to continue to control her.

I find Dean funny at times , but he is very lazy and just was unfair not helping Melvin with the chores.
Colleen seems a strong lady, a good mix of personalities this year...some very loud screamers !!

escaped Thu 28-Nov-24 08:23:14

Coleen's face when someone said Wayne must have had to "grow up" early! GK Barry is becoming my favourite.

Iam64 Thu 28-Nov-24 08:34:24

Spot on petal53. I know shared card can be the best option for some children, but it needs both parents to be entirely focussed on the children and behaving like grown ups. I’m not convinced it’s ok as the norm.

sassenach512 Thu 28-Nov-24 08:43:29

It doesn't matter which chore Dean is given, he weasels his way out of doing his fair share of the work.
Melvin is right to call him Houdini, disappearing instead of sharing the water carrying and when he did finally go, he chose the smallest pot and complained how heavy it was. He did the same to Jane, carrying a paltry three logs of wood while she carried a sack full. I'd have given the little twerp a good dressing down but I suppose none of them want to really say what they think

monk08 Thu 28-Nov-24 09:04:59

Your right sassenach512 if anybody has a real go at Dean for his laziness they will be accused of bullying so better not to say what they think.

Grannynannywanny Thu 28-Nov-24 09:12:13

I agree with everything you said sassenach512. Dean is not a team player and has shown himself to be entitled and lazy. I suspect the others are avoiding confrontation with him in case it shows them in a bad light. He comes across as someone who has grown from a spoiled child into a spoiled man child.

rafichagran Thu 28-Nov-24 11:26:41

I really dislike Dean, be is lazy and entitled, he has a excuse for everything, and he is for the most part lousy at the tasks.
He comes across as a obnoxious man.

Anniebach Thu 28-Nov-24 11:59:48

I agree raficbagran

Aveline Thu 28-Nov-24 12:43:26

Of course it's all in the editing. There could well be pretty negative bits they could show including any of the others. They choose the most extreme clips to show or to shape opinions likely to vote for or against people.
I agree he seems a silly little boy.

DanniRae Thu 28-Nov-24 14:13:24

I really don't like him .... I hope he gets evicted first angry

petal53 Thu 28-Nov-24 23:48:23

I don’t think he’ll be evicted first because he’s entertaining.
I hope Jane goes first.
I really like G K Barry.

Louella12 Thu 28-Nov-24 23:51:28

I worry with this vote to save. It's much better to vote to evict

People get confused.

I'm hoping Dean will go, if not him, Jane.

My votes went to GK

crazyH Fri 29-Nov-24 00:13:12

I like GK Barry although I haven’t ever seen her on TV

Neither have I. I have no idea why she is famous, but I do like her.

Casdon Fri 29-Nov-24 09:55:10

She’s not on TV, she’s a social influencer. I like her too.

petal53 Fri 29-Nov-24 11:25:19

a social influencer

What is this?
Is it a job?
Do influencers actually influence people?

I still like G K Barry, whatever she does.

Millie22 Fri 29-Nov-24 11:26:57

How many times can they show people with all those nasties being dumped on their heads. I think this year they are struggling to find anything of interest in the evening programme.

Danny is my favourite and Dean well he is just too lazy.

Anniebach Fri 29-Nov-24 11:29:07

Vote to evict would be so difficult , I like the chats between
G.K.Barry and Richard,

Yes, it is a job, successful social influencers make a lot of money.
