I think I'm watching a different show to everyone here - CM isn't bullying Owen at all. He was messing around at the start but since then, there's been nothing and they're good friends.

I agree that they all have a backstory which is less than desirable but MH is on another level altogether.

I predicted this from the start - they couldn't win with MH in there - be nice to him and they're going against their own principles (& CW, BG & CM have been particularly vocal prior to the jungle about their feelings) & be less than nice and they get accused of bullying.

I don't think any of them are bullying him at all but they are trying to make the best of the situation whilst really not liking MH and all he stands for. CM said himself that he's trying to acknowledge the difference and accept jungle MH at face value.

There's really no bullying at all as I see it.

Hope they do well in the trial tonight and that they're entertaining! It's meant to be a lighthearted entertainment show & MH in there has totally ruined that IMHO. I still say shame on ITV for giving him this platform & can't believe so many people are falling for this. He said himself the tricks he uses and this is the ultimate politician pivot.

I’d be telling him to STFU with his chanting while other people are still asleep.
agree.

XanaduKira · 15/11/2022 10:32

Me too @bluebell34567 ! I wonder how loud it is for the camp mates as it's hard to tell how far away he is. The Lion noises were just strange!

Confusion101 · 15/11/2022 11:29

I can't wait to see what way the camp will treat the people doing the trial tonight. Every other year has been so supportive "oh do your best" and this year its like "don't bother coming back if you haven't got all 11" vibes. It's so rude. Bet their tunes will change when more people do trials and realise how hard they are. They've eaten well too its not like they are bloody starving!

bluebell34567 · 15/11/2022 11:32

"don't bother coming back if you haven't got all 11" vibes
agree, passive aggressive vibes to MH. it was quite rude imo.

augustusglupe · 15/11/2022 11:58

I didn't like the big group 'don't bother coming back' chant either.
I hope MH wins tbh and I was pretty indifferent when he went in.
I really don't like Sue, BG or CM.

Hungrycaterpillarsmummy · 15/11/2022 12:01

Why did cm try and rally people against Nicola Roberts,?

Umanresources · 15/11/2022 12:05

I don’t think BG is taking his beliefs seriously, picking and choosing what to do.

‘Buddhists attempt to show loving kindness towards others and themselves without expecting anything in return. It is important to Buddhists to have this selfless attitude as it helps them overcome the Three Poisons, which are ignorance, greed and hatred.’

I’m wondering who CW thinks she is disappointing/upsetting by not sleeping in the caravan, or does she think she is taking a stand against MH. I wasn’t a fan of his at all before he went in, but I think he’s done really well in there.

MT and SC seem to be quite gossipy and rather mean, not as fond of them as I’d hoped, Mike especially seemed to be rather a jolly chap, but he’s annoying me, especially with the whole ‘revolution’ idea. Because they think that Matt is universally hated by the public, they think people will see them as heroes and thumbing a nose to the tories on our behalf, but I don’t think that would work.

Jill and Owen are coming across as lovely people. I hope they are in the final with perhaps MH and Seann.

GrandTheftWalrus · 15/11/2022 12:28

There's been a banner flown above the camp saying ‘Covid bereaved say get out of here!’

Because he thought she was unattractive.

He used to talk about her all the time and tell people to message in their thoughts and he’d read them out

they’re all on the back foot when it comes to getting on the moral high ground though aren’t they? Spouting off about their principles makes them a load of hypocritical sanctimonious wankers as far as I’m concerned and clearly I’m not alone. For people like them MH’s most unforgivable crime is being a Tory, and they’re all so desperately insecure as well as completely up their own arses they just have to keep reminding everyone.

XanaduKira · 15/11/2022 13:28

And that's where I disagree @PinkTonic - it's not Tory per se but MH in particular and what he specifically did during the crisis. The lying, giving contracts to cronies, not following the 'guidance' etc etc. If the only people allowed to criticise the government and MH are those with a whiter than white background, then I'm pretty sure no one anywhere would be able to criticise them at all (not just the camp mates).

MH shouldn't have been given this platform to pivot from. I think they're doing a sterling job in trying to distinguish Jungle MH from covid MH as it must be so hard for those in there who suffered or who had empathy for those who suffered. Only Owen seems to truly not have a clue about him as even Jill makes digs (but she seems favoured here so she's not accused of any kind of bullying).

Luckily you’re free to ignore it without danger of going hungry.

What the fucckkk?! How the hell did he get away with that?
I'm disgusted. Poor Nicola :( she's absolutely GORGEOUS too. What a wanker Chris is.

Rowthe · 15/11/2022 14:04

Just catching up on the last episode.

I'm glad there were re campmates nominated. It was getting boring just seeing Matt do well on all the trials.

This last trial was really difficult, even at home I was flinching, I mean when he has to put his hand in that hole full of cockroaches 😣

I dont like Matt but have to say he did well.

I'm not surprised Babatunde was chosen, his comment that he would have screamed if it was him doing the trial definitely didnt help him. I think he would be really fun to watch doing a trial.

XanaduKira · 15/11/2022 14:25

Me too @Rowthe , that's why I voted for Baba as I think he's brill and will be entertaining doing the trial! I also voted for CM. Will be good to see others doing trials and how they get on!

LydiaBennetsUglyBonnet · 15/11/2022 14:28

I really want Seann to do a trial. He seems like a massive wimp, wimps are the most fun to watch 🤣

Agree.

I found that very odd and couldn't work out who instigated it but they must have done to before that moment to all know it.

i think they are jealous as well, they havent got any trial done (they werent even chosen) while MH did all perfectly.

Huntswomanonthemove · 15/11/2022 17:34

Jill is easily my favourite. I've not hated MH as much as I expected and he seems okay. I can't stand BG and CM, odious pair. BG is getting far too much air time. I'd like to see more of the others.
