driedapricots · 16/01/2010 21:26

omg, i was just going to start the exact same thread...but thought i might be exposed as being a reality/crappy TV addict!! I completely agree. i want to like him, cos everyone says we must..it's 'vinnie jones' after all..but i reckon he's a controlling bully...

TheCrackFox · 16/01/2010 21:32

Why are you watching that pile of crap in the first place?

Vallhala · 16/01/2010 21:38

Once a knob, always a knob, be that for his manner on the pitch, his love of coursing and shooting, his arrogance.... actually, is there anything good I can say about Vinnie Jones?

Nope, he's a knob.

Soccer star-turned-movie tough guy VINNIE JONES's wife TANYA suffers from crippling kidney problems that puts a constant strain on the couple's relationship. Tanya, 40, underwent a heart transplant 20 years ago when her heart collapsed whilst giving birth. She has since had a mini-hysterectomy, and last year (06) was struck with kidney troubles that forced her back into hospital. Jones now lives in constant fear she'll be struck by new problems. The Swordfish star says, "It's not easy. You live day-to-day. You don't just get over something like that. She still has to take drugs and goes back to hospital for an annual check-up."

harimosmummy · 16/01/2010 22:15

Actually the only one I can't stand is Sov.

If she says 'At ve end ov ve day' once more!!!! GAH!!!

First time I've ever got in to BB (celebrity or otherwise)

Have to feel sorry for the tall guy - the one who shagged Katya. He seems genuine - I'd say Sov would love to get half a chance with him!

stainesmassif · 16/01/2010 22:18

agreed - i don't see the vinnie jones appeal. i really hope he doesn't win. omg, he's still going on about corned beef right now! mental.

NonnoMum · 16/01/2010 22:39

Think he is quite aggressive and controlling the way he spoke to the Page 3 girl (Nikki?) Are you a WAG?? Blah blah blah...

Have heard rumours (don't libel me) that Mr Vinnie Jones plays away... blah blah

thesunshinesbrightly · 16/01/2010 22:46

I love Vinnie.

CrackersInBed · 16/01/2010 23:03

I think it is amazing how he routinely bullies and insults the others, except Stephanie and Ivana and they all just take it. Are they all so stupid that they don't see he is nasty?

And what the hell has his wife's health got to do with it ? Does it mean he is OK to act like a bully to everyone else because she is ill? WTF?

On the other hand, Sov is a silly brat who needs to grow up.

MamaG · 16/01/2010 23:18

The man is a thug.

MamaG · 16/01/2010 23:18

...and I'm SURE you spell knob witha k

Lucyhugbox · 16/01/2010 23:23

I think he just loves himself as the guv'ner of cbb but in fact he is an utter twat. Everything he says relates back to the blardy corned beef . shaddup about it lol!

OurLadyOfPerpetualSupper · 16/01/2010 23:26

Funny if he's playing the sick wife card - yesterday when he was going on about the kitchen work and someone asked if he did that stuff at home he said 'no, I've got cleaners, or my wife does it.'
Not so concerned about her health that he pitches in and helps, then..
Must say, I'd be well pissed off if someone was snacking on the stuff earmarked for meals, though.

noddyholder · 17/01/2010 08:09

Vinnie is a prat (first hand experience).I think Sov will drive the older ones mad,Ivana is funny but top housemate is Alex he is so confused about everything

MamaG · 17/01/2010 08:16

Yeah, I don't think Alex is over-endowed in teh brains department is he

posieparker · 17/01/2010 08:28

I think being in a place like that would magnify episodes like the corned beef, I think Vinny is alright, seems to know who he is which makes him likable and not spouting utter nonsense like Alex, Sov and Katya. Really like Dane....Stephanie is a bit of a witch and Ivana , like Vinny, is just who she is nothing hidden.

Who says Vinny's playing the sick wife card? I have n't heard him mention it at all.

ApplesinmyPocket · 17/01/2010 08:29

It's funny how after a week of watching people all cooped up together and gradually exposing their true selves how very dislikeable almost all people seem to be, isn't it?

I thought Vinnie was quite funny at frst - he's revealing himself to be the controlling bully of the OP.

Nicola seems pleasantish but the simpering 'Vinnie's a MAN and I'm just a silly lil' woman' act in the DR last night had me reaching for the bucket.

The bucket was busy last night as Jonas' handwringing in the DR about his 'love' for Katia was quite yuk - seeing a grown man fall for a silly, sullen, immature girl who acts about 12 and speaks in grunts is never pretty and had me retching in no time.

Stephen is just plain bonkers.

I liked Ivana and Stephanie at first but now they have revealed themselves to be two sanctmonious smuggos ganging up together to disapprove of da Yoof of Today.

Oh yes, Sov - whiny, difficult and selfish. However, at least she isn't letting Vinnie and the Two Witches beat her down, which is good. But not a likeable sort.

Maybe Dane is the only nice one. Haven't seen him do much wrong, though I haven't seen it all.

I'm enjoying it more than last year's, which I found dull. I can't believe it's the last one - sigh.

BellsaRinging · 17/01/2010 08:34

Sov is a bit of an idiot, but yesterday Vinnie was being a knob, yes. He's trying to control everyone in there; reading the rule book constantly; being in the kitchen; rallying people against Sov...and it seems that no one can see it in there.
Stephanie is a superior bitch...

FiveGoMadInDorset · 17/01/2010 08:37

Considering that he is President of the NOBs organisation then it is obviously highly appropriate that he is acting like one.
