He seems too have big anger issues on I'm a Celeb. AIBU? It's been a rubbish show this year. I don't think I'll watch it again.

Eh? Big anger issues Confused

He just seems to flair up really quickly and just seems really angry.

I actually think the opposite, seems genuinely nice and I think he’s being very controlled especially with Sam who is clearly doing his head in. I didn’t think I’d like him when he first came in but he’s one of my favourites now.

Fair enough. Maybe it's just me.

Are you watching a different programme?! He's lovely and it's a nice year, thoroughly enjoying it

Thatsitfirtiday · 03/12/2023 13:56

Yes, Sam on the other hand....

ExtraOnions · 03/12/2023 13:57

Sam hit him on the head the other day, then jumped all over him, then the next day Sam started hitting his arm because he wanted to spa.

At no point did Tony lose him temper …he may have rolled his eyes, and looked a bit exasperated.. who could blame him

scaredofff · 03/12/2023 13:59

I don't get that from him at all actually I thought he was a bit goofy and enjoys a laugh. What part did you see that makes you think he has a problem with anger?

scaredofff · 03/12/2023 14:00

I OTOH couldn't control myself the way he did being skelped randomly in the face by Sam

mrsbyers · 03/12/2023 14:04

I don’t think he’s any more angry than anyone in camp

BiggerBoat1 · 03/12/2023 14:04

I think he's lovely. He is so kind to Sam who is obviously doing his head in!

Almondmum · 03/12/2023 14:05

I agree with the others, he's been very patient with Sam..it makes me laugh, he's almost like a slightly exasperated but tolerant parent.

shamelesss · 03/12/2023 14:06

I really like Sam he’s bringing good energy to the camp, however I think he’s turned into a bit of an annoyance to Tony and I think Tony is doing well to put up with him jumping all over him constantly, especially when it appears hes not jumping all over everyone, a few times I’ve noticed Tony sort of move away slightly or get up when Sam has jumped on him.
Sam has become a bit of a toddler around him and it’s very easy to become touched out* quickly as some of us will know.
i am enjoying this year though, some lovely camp mates in like Nick, Marvin & Josie too

Mybatteryisoutofcharge · 03/12/2023 14:09

Maybe just me then. During some of the trials he has snapped pretty easily. I can see that Sam would wind him up but he has ADHD so is naturally going to be pretty energetic. I've really warmed to Sam but there's something about Tony that makes me feel uncomfortable and I think it's how easily he flairs up.

He wouldn't be able to go very far in his profession of boxing if he had anger issues.. it's about control

Yes a contact sport but you need great self control to not take it to far

I think your viewing him wrong because he is reserved and not matching the high energetic energy of Sam

Almondmum · 03/12/2023 14:18

Dec was going out of his way to wind him up yesterday during his trial and he took it really well, he was clearly joking back with him.

But not all boxers are controlled. Didn't one of them bite off Mike Tyson's ear?

You've got a weird take on both him and this year's show.

ttcat37 · 03/12/2023 14:22

Eh? Anger issues? He seems like a very calm and controlled person, the exact opposite of anger issues?
He looks like an exasperated dad when Sam comes near him, probably because Sam is the single most irritating prick ever seen on television. Never heard of him before I’m a celeb and I’m amazed that he has a job in the media.

Weird or just a different view to you?

Sorry OP but no. I've watched every episode and I don't think that. I also love Sam. Lovely, big hearted, happy dude.

The biggest nobs in there are Nigel, Fred and Nella.

pinkfongg · 03/12/2023 14:25

I think he's pretty hot!

FreshWinterMorning · 03/12/2023 14:26

Errr no. He just doesn't like Sam and gets irritated by him. Understandable. Sam is insufferable and infuriating. I'd have lost my shit with him by now too.

I agree two thirds. Nella, Fred, and Sam!

Fionaville · 03/12/2023 14:27

I think he's the most chilled out one in there! I don't think you're getting his humour maybe. I want him to win.
