i don’t want MH or SW to win as I think they would both over interpret that win as the public loving / forgiving them and it would not be good for them to think that as it isn’t true. It’s better for both of them to leave mid / topish table. I also think this applies but to a lesser extent to Sue, BG and MT.
A too big ego is not good for an individual especially individuals with low self esteem / self confidence or those that are effected positively or negatively but what others think of them.

I am a fan of Seann’s and totally agree. I think winning/top 3 could be bad for him mentally in the long run. 4th or 5th and a trial or two would be a nice boost for him confidence wise so I’m hoping for that.

I think MH and BG in the final would be funny but I don’t really want Hancock there either for the reasons you state too.

I am coming round to the idea of George making the final because in fairness he may be bitchy but without him where would the drama be?

Then we’re left with people who would make a likeable but not hugely interesting top three but so be it. I think I’d like Owen, Jill and Baba/George.

I agree with many of you about MT what’s him being so high in the odds all about? He’s not even bringing much chat to it. Weird.

Tony Blair also went to public school!

KnickerlessParsons · 20/11/2022 10:16

Is jt ture that Mikes real nickname was The fridge and not magic mike which wosme people say is just what sue and mike call him

Just checked with DH. It was Magic Mike.
He was a very aggressive rugby player.

HappyHamsters · 20/11/2022 10:16

Its in the papers that mike cheated in the trial, his real nickname was the fridge, and that he said magic mike because he knew what sue said. What happens now if thats true.

CuriousMama · 20/11/2022 10:17

So MT lied about his nickname to win a star? As he knew that's what Sue would say ? Ingenious 🤣

CuriousMama · 20/11/2022 10:21

Just reading all the uproar about him lying. Honestly I thought it was clever. Most of them are lying by omission anyway pretending they like each other.

Yes Matt is definitely cinders and Mike and Sue the ugly sisters 😂

I really like seann and to be honest seeing the video of his ex girlfriend pouring her heart out to the ghastly, fake tax dodging Lorraine Kelly I can see why he snogged Katya.

lollipoprainbow · 20/11/2022 10:25

Agree Jill is nice but dull, she's only popular because of the lioness win. It was hyped to the max but fair play to her.

2Rebecca · 20/11/2022 10:26

I want Jill to win, she isn't aggressive, contrary or exciting but seems pleasant and friendly and tries to do the trials.
I think you should only be on the programme if you can do all the trials, so no veggies, non swimmers, special diets etc.
It's back to the fairness v inclusivity issue and with an entertaining game show I'd rather have fairness and them all being up for all the trials.
I think the initial trials were too horrible.

lollipoprainbow · 20/11/2022 10:26

A lot of MT's antics are probably alchohol fuelled too, Chuck some booze into camp and we might see a different Mike!

2Rebecca · 20/11/2022 10:27

With Sean and Katya it was Katya who was married. A girlfriend is just a girlfriend.

You’ve changed your tune about BG 😉😉...he’s keeping the show interesting. So many dull ones it’s just not entertaining...the mr wolf singing was juvenile and cringe. George speaking sense at least

Oh I still think he’s a prick 🤣 but I’ve said all along he’s an entertaining prick and is by far the most genuine person. I feel he’s quite frustrated that he’s brought his genuine self, warts and all, to the jungle, and others are only showing the nicey nice side of themselves. I hope he lasts until the end. Would be a boring show without him. He’s was 100% right to call out the BS last night. I did feel sorry for Seann though who I suspect agrees with him but doesn’t wanna look like the bad guy.

Im dreading letters from home, it’s a snot fest and it’s ridiculous because they’ll see their family in 2 days and several hundreds of thousands of pounds richer too.

Yes and funny how he was so terrible she stayed with him before katyagate 🙄

I also can't abide LK. Everyone is so wonderful amazing.....🤮

lollipoprainbow · 20/11/2022 10:31

@CuriousMama yes funny that! He was so awful she was cheering him on every week on strictly. I read she was also dumped by her next boyfriend after seann so don't think the issue is all with him.

Dave20 · 20/11/2022 09:09

Don’t feel too sorry for Matt Hancock. He probably knows how the others feel. Maybe he’s just playing along with it? I reckon he can see what’s going on. I don’t think he’s that naive.

He was given allegedly 400k. That’s for what, 3 weeks in Australia? He’s also allegedly been offered other lots more money for other stuff when he leaves.

Hancock knows he’ll make more money now than he did in politics. If he knows his political career is coming to an end he’ll grab any opportunity he can to make money.

I guarantee he’ll get a much higher paid job than he did as an MP.

Look at Boris, he’s allegedly making tons of money doing speeches and other work.

Tony Blair made millions after being PM.

He's donating some to charity I think

sashagabadon · 20/11/2022 10:34

Magic Mike live is a famous strip show in Leicester square. There’s posters all other the place for it on tube etc.
so that’s probably why sue thought of it and Mike thought sue would think of it 😁

Dave20 · 20/11/2022 10:40

Interesting points here regarding Matt Hancock being seen as out of touch by the other contestants.

Mike Tindall married into the RF, Boy George is a multimillionaire, Chris Moyles got paid lots of money as a DJ, and Sue has been in Corrie for over 20 years. She must have been pretty well paid over all these years?..

Hancocks MPs salary would be about 80k. Yes as a cabinet minister he would have got more.
But an MP can lose their seat after any election, so it’s not a guaranteed income for long.

An MPs salary is obviously way above the average wage but many managing directors of companies would be on more than that. A head teacher of a school wouldn’t be on much less that that. Bankers get lots more money. Lots of people get paid more than an MP.

So I don’t get why they all seem to think Hancock lives in another world to them, when probably most of them earn more than he does anyway.

Aworldofmyown · 20/11/2022 10:40

CM "he doesn't live in our world" you mean with the one with full size stormtroopers in the lounge 🤦‍♀️
Also, MT guesses quickly the answer she would give, kudos him!!

HappyHamsters · 20/11/2022 10:41

They are all being paid way more than they would ever earn in 3 weeks, Charlene got 75k for 2 weeks and dipped out of her only trial

No he cheated, he could have lipread, it was not his nickname so he lied.

XanaduKira · 20/11/2022 10:45

They've all been calling him Magic Mike in there. I don't see the big deal that he lied as it was to answer the same as your partner - they didn't stipulate that you had to tell the truth.

@LydiaBennetsUglyBonnet totally agree with you about BG - I reckon he is annoyed that he's being authentic (warts and all) whereas others are pretending. What he hasn't probably appreciated is that he has the luxury of not needing to work again or being reliant on how he comes across, whereas all the rest of them will be heavily dependent on how they are viewed by the public for future work.

BlueRidge · 20/11/2022 10:49

We play the board game Mr&Mrs at home. First rule is to say what you think your partner will, not necessarily the actual truth.

If it is Jill, Owen and Mike in the final as the odds suggest, it will be very dull

Oh god please no!

sashagabadon · 20/11/2022 10:51

Also BG has the luxury of being BG and the public know him as outspoken, outrageous etc . It’s baked in for him as far as the public is concerned. Same with CM. They will lose little social cachet “speaking their minds” infact it’s expected of them.
That’s not the case for the others and they have therefore more to lose. If MT, BT,MH etc stated spouting off their true feelings about everything and everyone, we’d all be 😮but BG doing it and we are 🙄or 😁or 😴
