I'm a Celebrity 2 - they're normally looking a lot skinnier by this point!

Thought would get in there early in case something exciting happens and we all get carried away.

Just to make my stance clear - I love Alfonso, Vincent and David, falling out of love with Matthew and am really not liking Amy or Mo. Am pretty 'take em or leave em' about the rest Smile

the other celebs know what it is all about and he doesn't although they did have celeb in america but i dont think it lasted as long as ours

Golddigger · 30/11/2013 10:42

Havent read this thread or the other one!

If I was Alfonso I wouldnt be in there I dont think.
I would not choose to miss my 3 week old baby
No wonder he sometimes wonders what on earth he is doing in there.

mrsjay · 30/11/2013 10:43

he probably needs the money for his 3 week old baby

qazxc · 30/11/2013 10:45

The thing is that the americans probably suffer from culture shock, don't know/have never heard of other celebs / prob don't know the show as well as the other contestants and what character traits will appeal to the british public. Added to which Al is probably thinking "is this what i'm reduced too?" and he has a young baby that he is missing out on. There's probably a lot of conversations in camp that he can't join in on ( I'd imagine they talk about eastenders/emmerdale/westlife/towie/etc...). It probably is quite isolating for him.

mrsjay · 30/11/2013 10:47

yes I think so to everything you said qazxc

qazxc · 30/11/2013 10:52

Also who get the tree house now Amy and Joey are away?
Evidence of concealed concealer seems to centered around the fact that Amy carries her backpack "like a handbag". Rebecca says that she has previously seen it as well. The cameras keep zooming in on the bag every time amy opens it/ takes anything out, no concealer has been spotted so far.

smokeandglitter · 30/11/2013 11:51

I still feel a bit sorry for Amy, the fact the boys have now said they've noticed her being a bit picked on/pushed aside makes me think she might be putting up with quite a bit of not interesting to watch sniping and ignoring off camera. Still, I suppose we'll never know. Concealed concealer wouldn't be fair and won't gain her likeability with the other celebs if caught, but I much prefer her to bitchy Lucy. DH doesn't like Lucy either, she's just not coming across as a particularly nice person and I second the pp who said it seems a bit rich of her to be complaining about Amy when she lies around all the time too.

Dislike Matthew and feel for Alfonso. Think Rebecca is lovely and a very real person too, not a drama queen with fears of critters etc and seems to make an effort to get on well with the others in camp and make sure everyone feels ok. Kian is really nice. Bless him with getting teary at the family photo - what a sweetie!

mrsjay · 30/11/2013 11:57

I think Lucy is coming across bitter and really nasty I know we only see the bits celeb want us to see but she really isn't coming across well I was meh about her when she started going on at Amy for her having to get a boob job or botox ,

I Love David he is fabulous Dahling I remember him when he made the dress and he came across really snooty and smug but he is lovely

Golddigger · 30/11/2013 12:19

What I am surprised about most, is that the celebs I thought I would like I dont like so much, and the ones I was doubtful about, are actually nicer than I thought. Probably the only one I thought the same as in nice, both before and after, is Rebecca.

A lesson for me somewhere in that I think!

Am I right in thinking that they are in there longer than usual before they get kicked off? Which I prefer as you get to know them better.

kerstina · 30/11/2013 12:26

Is there anyone that likes Mathew that did not know him from the Wright stuff? I am wondering if I would like him if I had not got to like him through watching the write stuff.
I recognise Lucy as a bitch met a lot of people like her in my life. She is quite tough and very 'hard faced' when she looks at Amy.
Who is going to be out first?
I didn't think I would like Rebecca but I do. Like David too.

kerstina · 30/11/2013 12:30

Yes Golddigger but you would probably feel completely different about those people if we were actually in the jungle with them. I think the nicest people are the ones the fellow campmates seem to like and want to spend time with not just those who come across well on camera. You would want the people around you to pull their weight too.

Impomea · 30/11/2013 12:50

I loved MW on The Wright Stuff .I thought he was funny,kind ,entertaining and with a lot of empathy.Now I don't know what to thinkShock .I wouldn't have thought he would be a game player,but he's not doing himself any favours imo

Vincent makes me chuckle ,I like David and Rebecca is sweet.

Impomea · 30/11/2013 12:52

PS Matthew should still be doing his show and RM should be in the jungle insteadGrin

Golddigger · 30/11/2013 13:04

True kerstina about having to live with people to know people further.

GideonKipper · 30/11/2013 13:34

I would sell my granny to see Richard Madeley in the jungle Grin. I think another campmate would snap and batter him with a log from the campfire within the first 48 hours.

Mind you, at least we're seeing what talented actresses Mo and Lucy are - it must be such a stretch to play their characters in EastEnders and Emmerdale. They are so different in real life Hmm Wink.

mrsjay · 30/11/2013 13:38

think MO went to the same drama school as Joe swash Grin I have not seen Emmerdale for years but yes she is just chastity (is that her name) and MO is MO i do like her though

Golddigger · 30/11/2013 14:01

That's what I thought Gideon.
Some actors have it so hard, and some have it easy.

Anyone know what Sam Dingle is like in real life? [going right off topic]
That may be a question for the emmerdale thread.

Also the boredom factor must be excrutiating. One person gets a task but the other eleven are basically left to twiddle their thumbs all day.

Golddigger · 30/11/2013 14:56

I dont think some of them much like Amy.
I dont think Steve is in the loop much either, especially amongst some of the men.
I think that they all like Rebecca?

LadyBeagleEyes · 30/11/2013 15:16

I'm not keen on Amy at all. I think she is absolutely stunning but are the women really jealous?
I doubt Annabel is, she's been the top model, she's had a telly career, married the rock star
and she's witty and funny and still gorgeous.
I'm sure she's very much been there done that.
Remember Ashley last year, who was the jungle 'totty', she came second because she was just a lovely person.
I'm 57 and wouldn't dream about being jealous of a young beautiful women, do older women really feel that way.
As for Lucy I like her toughness.
I still want David to win though

Golddigger · 30/11/2013 15:22

If you were a previous model, and dont think you are as pretty as you once were, I should imagine that there are a whole lot of ex models who would feel jealous.

kerstina · 30/11/2013 15:26

I don't think its about, looks more personality. I think its because Amy is not pulling her weight. I think Lucy actually might be popular in the jungle but she is just not coming across well. Think it is probably the editing again ? Cant wait for them all to come out and tell there side of the story.

kerstina · 30/11/2013 15:28

If Rebecca was acting liking a princess I think Lucy would be treating her the same as Amy but she is not.

sweetiepie1979 · 30/11/2013 16:01

Lucy is a total bitch, I dont think it's the editing. She's got a hard face with a snarl. She is totally picking on Amy. I think Alfonso wants to be the big man and he isn't. He is a lot like his character in fresh Prince actually. Bit spoilt and wants attention. His shouting at Matthew was embarrassing I can see that Matthew's annoying but Alfonso didn't handle it very well. I too think he should be at home with his 3 week old and I reckon he realises that now too it's time he won't get
back. Just get a real job like the rest of us alfonso!
