I spoke to John Torode on the phone on Friday. He was surprisingly pleasant and forthcoming.

I was v. surprised that Shabnam got the chop. I expected her and Charley to go on ans on, nominated every week, but making it almost to the end, because of the watchability of their emomaniacal delusions, and their skill at driving the other housemates mental.
I'm beginning to rather warm to Seany, myself, although I know this is very wrong...

[worldofagwu]

- it rather looks as tho charley will be going on & on ( - because i think lots of housemates = too afraid of her reaction to nominate her ) - still, as you say she is goob VFM ( - if exasperating )

i still can't bear seany but he might dodge the bullet this week w/carole going snooker loopy

One used to hear the Val Doonigan cover as much if not more as/than Lind's own version, so it could've been him sometimes.
