I think it should be shown to the public so they public can make their own mind up

I wouldn’t say the others are as fame hungry as the Thomas brothers.
Craig did it as his first go was cut short, Jimmy did it for the money, Scarlet said she did it for the money to pay for a new kitchen.

I’m pretty sure all these people could find other ways to earn money that don’t involve eating kangaroo testicles on TV. They all do it for the fame.

I shouldn't have clicked on this, but I've never heard of any of these people!

Me too, dare I ask someone to give a summary of who they are, whats happened?

Too lazy to look them all up, sorry!!

I think most folk would struggle to earn the amount they earned in the space of the few weeks they were away filming.

A lot of them have made an entire career out of ‘being famous’. You can’t tell me that Gemma Collins, for example, isn’t ’fame hungry’? She’s famous for nothing except being famous!
Harry Redknapp doesn’t need the money either, does he? So why is he on there, other than for fame?

Sorry can you let me know where I said Gemma Collins wasn’t fame hungry?
Ive said the Thomas brothers are, the plaster every single member of their family on social media, every single thing is posted or talked about, they don’t just want themselves to be famous they want every member of their family to be famous.
I couldn’t tell you Craig, Mo, Jimmy, Sinitta, Seann, David or Beverly’s children’s names.
There’s a difference being famous and being fame hungry

Wasn’t he the subject of a big brother argument too?

They are all there for the fame and nothing will convince me otherwise. That’s what their lives are all about.
I have no idea of the names of the children of the Thomas brothers. You must have to show some sort of interest in them to know that?

And that is absolutely fine, I’m not here to convince you of anything, you’re a grown adult with your own opinions, I’m not here to convince a stranger off the internet otherwise.
The same as my opinion that the Thomas Brothers are more fame hungry than others stands and I’m not looking at you to convince me otherwise, I’ve came to that conclusion on my own

LOCOJDS · 25/04/2026 18:16

We can only comment on what we've seen and as far as Im concerned Jimmy and David are nothing but bullies. Even if Adam had said all the C words going I wouldn't have blamed him.

PurpleAndYellowIris · 25/04/2026 19:32

ohyesido · 25/04/2026 15:18

They won’t. Adam’s agent is the daughter of the director of television, read into that what you will

Ohhh I didn’t know that…. Interesting

Harry said he absolutely loved it both times.

So that'll be why.

No that was his brother Ryan and Ryan was totally innocent
thankfully was caught on camera and the footage finally shown

well finally shown the footage after making him breakdown and cry and feel horrendous for days

makes you feel thankful to not be a celeb really
must be a horrible world to inhabit
and be on reality shows etc

As @PurpleAndYellowIris said that was his brother Ryan and Roxanne Pallett. That was truly awful tv on her part

I’m not sure what showing the full video will tell us, yes Adam was very very angry and said a rude word that could upset some people but not others. People seem to be forgetting that is was totally calculated on Jimmy’s part for his own financial gain

PurpleAndYellowIris · 25/04/2026 20:29

What is like to know is how many times did Adam call him a c ?
and did he saying f’ing c ?

Does it matter if he called it him one time or twenty? He’s said sorry

i love the word, obviously I don’t use it every day but I would if someone threw me under the bus. I absolutely get people don’t like the word but that’s all it is, a word

I think I might send Adam a T-shirt I own

Who thinks itv should show the full footage of Adam Thomas, kicking off at jimmy?
HipsterHighStreet · 25/04/2026 21:42

I don’t watch the show… I read a news article on this but could not for the life of me figure out what was going on!

cloudtreecarpet · 25/04/2026 21:53

If it had really been as 'traumatic" to witness as Craig Charles & Sinitta are claiming I think word would have got out before now seeing as it was filmed back in September.

I reckon what's happened is that some of the celebs don't like the way it looks as though they let Adam be bullied by David & Jimmy & did nothing about it so they are joining in and dramatising the row, calling it "traumatic" & "abusive".
It's all to save their own skins, Adam included. As ever, I imagine the real truth is somewhere in between everything we have been shown & heard.

None of them have behaved well but David & Jimmy were ridiculous last night. Very poor behaviour, just shouting people down and repeating the same thing over again. Very juvenile and sadly poor role models to the kids/teens who might have been watching.
Awful TV

GuiltyPleasure · 25/04/2026 22:56

I think it would be interesting to see the full footage, just for the public to be able to see, with the exception of additional swearing, whether it makes the scenario any worse. Adam obviously lost his head in the moment and he’s fully admitted that he used the c word and was aggressive. I don’t for a second believe that Jimmy doesn’t use that word regularly or been called it on many occasions (I personally think that word suits him completely). They are all adults and I find it hard to believe any of them were traumatised by it, with possibly the exception of Sinitta, who is a complete flake.
Jimmy showed up at the live final to fulfill his contract, which was all he cared about. I got the impression he’d have publicly accepted Adam’s apology if he hadn’t been for David egging him on to reignite the argument.
David is largely the problematic one in the whole thing. Everything about him is repulsive. He hates the fact that he thinks he’s an alpha male, when in fact he’s a complete joke, both professionally and personally & Jimmy, Craig and Harry showed themselves up and probably revealed a lot about themselves by not cutting him down in camp. Only the women stood up to his attitudes and behaviour.
I’d be surprised if this version of the programme will continue, because it just doesn’t work without intervention of the viewer vote throughout.

DNo · Yesterday 17:44

I think Adam's reaction was 100% justified. Calling him the c word, hes been on a football pitch for years and was always a goader, that's why people loved Jimmy, he's not a stranger to the word. We know he kicked off, and we know why he did it seeing him call him a c* isn't going to change anything.

AhMh67 · Today 07:12

He was absolutely correct to kick off I would have been exactly the same. He deliberately picked him although he denied it later. If you want to quit go don't drag someone else with you.

TheBeaTgoeson1 · Today 07:36

I don’t care

HoraceCope · Today 07:40

surely its too late now
what is the point
