I happened to be flicking through the TV channels today and caught a rerun of last night’s ep just as Magic Mike Gate was happening, and Mike literally says after being asked what he was known as “ah well, she’s not going to know the answer to this so I’m going to say Magic Mike.”

Yeah the lying cheating scumbag.Grin

'Even Sue had a go about him cutting up meat. And it's done in a way to bond themselves in a group against him. I don't think it's bullying as such, a word which I think is too over-used, but it's definitely an attempt to isolate him and make themselves feel more secure about him.'

Yes it's all such obvious passive aggressive crap. Imagine daring to tell George he hadn't cut it correctly! He'd storm off and they'd be tip toeing around him for days. MH is an easy target as he doesn't react.

He didn’t even cut it wrong, he was scraping off bits from the wooden basket

ArcaneWireless · 20/11/2022 16:08

You can be in the body of the Kirk and be isolated. No one is being pleasant or friendly or engaging with him.

He has joined in because he is there. Could you imagine the bitching if he hadn’t crooned along? Danced a bit? He isn’t stupid. He knows he is merely being tolerated at best.

If they had the choice to have him sieve they creek for leaves while they had fun, I believe they would 🤷🏻‍♀️

I have said what you mentioned in your second paragraph. Also. They are so worried about themselves they are blind to the fact that they showing a poor side of themselves.

does anyone think that contestants have been told not to mention the royals to MT ??? I do. I can’t believe no one would question anything with him. If I was in their I would ask all day if I could about life as a royal and his relationship with Charles and Williams family .. the fact they only seem interested in Matt confuses me. Surely they would want to know about life as part of the royal family ?

That would be a shame because then he’s just some has been Rugby player that barely anyone knows and we could have had a has been Rugby player with personality instead

"Wholst Mike isn’t a ‘proper’ RF member he does tow (tow?) the party line"

It's "TOE" the party line and you can have no idea if there even IS a party line, let alone whether he's toeing it.

XanaduKira · 20/11/2022 15:44

I really don't see that at all.

I know, these are adults not school children, punishments would be rather silly IMO

user16480478 · 20/11/2022 16:19

ITV probably don't know what to edit as it obviously isn't going to plan, they wanted Matt ridiculed with the trials and then out on his ear in the first eviction, with a long interview telling him how bad he had been and how everyone hated him, instead they got a boring interview with Charlene and Matt not looking like he is leaving anytime soon

Of course he is! The party line is “Support the RF no matter what”. He’s part of that institution and on my eyes that means he supports the likes of Andrew and Harry

And my second ‘tow’ shoudl have read ‘toe’ as want sure of the correct spelling.

sashagabadon · 20/11/2022 16:22

Mike must know tonnes of royal gossip. He attends all the major events and knows all the main players very well.
it would be fantastic to know the inside story to the sandringham summit, what everyone really thought of the Oprah interview, does he keep in any sort of contact with H&M, what does Anne think about it all, when did they become suspicious of Meghan’s intentions, should H&M keep their titles, have him and Zara been invited to montecito? the list is endless but no one will ask and even if they did he’d never give an answer.

user16480478 · 20/11/2022 16:27

Maybe they are all republicans as well as not Tory in there and not interested in the royal family but then I would expect an argument or two about the cost of the monarchy and stuff like that

XanaduKira · 20/11/2022 16:27

Can you blame him though @sashagabadon? Whether he's abiding by the 'party line' or not, this is his family and I wouldn't expect him to gossip about them.

He's not being isolated. He joins in with all the singing (😫), dancing and playing of games. How exactly is he being isolated?

I get what a previous poster was getting at about how we're not seeing real personalities because of Matt being in there. They're all so aware of how he is/was perceived on the outside and are hyper-aware how it might reflect on them if they get too pally with him. Some might say that makes them cowards. Some might call it self-preservation but whatever it is they have their guards up.

Because they are gossiping to group themselves against him. Just because you're allowed to participate doesn't mean you don't know that the group is talking about you (as Seann said) and pulling you down.

No one is suggesting they become best friends, though. They just need to accept his presence, which as far as I can see isn't an overwhelming personality. Surely they do research before they come on and their agents tell them that if it's seen that peoole are being excuded, it backfires on the excluders. Hence Gary Busey winning CBB (who must have been disgusting to live with!) Just being polite to people and not gossiping never lost any celebrity votes ever.

BlueRidge · 20/11/2022 16:28

I think it's a bit of a stretch to say that because Mike doesn't appear to be spilling juicy gossip about his in-laws that that must mean he supports Andrew.
Of course he knows stuff but thankfully he appears to have a little more integrity than Harry.

Aquarius1234 · 20/11/2022 16:30

Half the people on here love MH. Utterly obsessed with him.
You have no idea what he's like in there. You see 50 mins out of 12 hours a day.
I don't agree that ITV thought he would be 1st out. He's been given all the air time.

Integrity? He’s been done for drink driving.

MarshaMelrose · 20/11/2022 16:32

The party line is “Support the RF no matter what”. He’s part of that institution and on my eyes that means he supports the likes of Andrew and Harry.

But they are his wife's family. She's known them all her life and they all grew up pretty close to each other. It's difficult for family to stop loving people they've always loved. Maybe he likes these people too? Maybe he doesn't want to upset his wife? He's going on there for him to have an experience not to spill his guts on his life.

Aquarius1234 · 20/11/2022 16:32

Not 24 hours as they sleep 8/ 9 hourd and also rest and sleep/ sunbathe in there.
So footage from 9 am till 9pm. But I heard they go bed very early.

BlueRidge · 20/11/2022 16:34

@FallingsHowIFeel, are you not able to differentiate between two entirely separate issues?

Myeyeballsareonfire · 20/11/2022 16:34

Completely off topic, so apologies, but can anyone explain to me why the ‘creatives’ see themselves as so liberal in general?

Jenasaurus · 20/11/2022 16:34

I doubt MH will be in the top 3, I think a lot of people like me vote for him at the moment as he has worked hard at the trials and I dislike some of the others more but I still think as a sitting MP he shouldn't be there

I agree with this.

I want him to leave midway through, as it reflects his time and efforts in there but he shouldnt win. He hasnt been bitching or causing drama and we shouldnt judge him as a politician but as a contestant and what he has done during his time in camp. If we are going to judge on previous perceptions them we need to get rid of the drink driver, adulterer and kidnapper too. I think Seann should be in longer for the same reason, as a camp mate he has been diplomatic and non confrontational. If we didnt know them from the outside and this was all we saw of them, I would want Seann to win.

Yes, but BG seems to think he is being fake because he is too nice, so he probably isnt causing issues, except the shaving bowl and bird poo on hand scenario

Good people with integrity don’t drink and drive. He’s not talking about the royal scandals because he’s still in the family, nothing to do with integrity.

I'm not obsessed with him. As with all of them I can only judge on what we've bern shown and he doesn't seem to have done anything wrong other than nit empty a bowl. He's only given airtime because he was the only person doing anything. And as far as we can see, he's the only person they're slagging off. How can you assume he's awful when you only see him being portrayed as OK?

LydiaBennetsUglyBonnet · 20/11/2022 16:38

Ugh have we started again with the claims of MH luvvies.

Not hating him does not equal loving him.

ArcaneWireless · 20/11/2022 16:38

I don’t love MH.

As I’ve said, I don’t know him at all.

But I truly hate when people group together, distance themselves and make nasty digs about one person.

And if I am going to be obsessed about anything, it will be over a group of adults acting worse than school kids.
