The bullying of David Van Day
David Van Day has obviously never read How to Win Friends and Influence People. The former Dollar singer is, it has to be said, hard to love in I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here. I hated him when he arrived as a latecomer and started bitching about where he was going to sleep.
But that doesn't excuse the way that other contestants were so horrid to him. In the end it was the venom in which they treated him that turned David Van Day from a zero to hero. And it will serve them right if he wins.
Chief among his tormentors was the plastic-enhanced Nicola McLean. The former Page Three model was the latest "celebrity" to be evicted in part, I suspect, because she was so downright nasty to DVD. She pouted, she frowned, she stared, she gossiped, and she spread poison whenever she could. Manipulating events so he did not get a share of the chocolate brownie left in the camp as a treat was the act of a petulant child. Nice boobs, though.
Simon Webbe was more incidious with his treatment of the camp pariah. He didn't have the bottle to confront David in a man-to-man way. Instead there was some mumbo jumbo about his snake tattoo reminding him that some people are snakes, he's good at spotting them, he knows who they are etc etc. Mimicking David to his pals - but not his face - for getting breathless while digging for the treasure chest was the act of a man who does not respect his elders.
Martina Navrata-rotter was another who connived against David. She was, admittedly, up-front about him hogging the bed in the bus and she was also gossiping behind his back and claiming if there was any justice he would be the next to go. You could sense her face dropping when the public voted to keep him and evict Miss Boobs instead.
Of the remaining people in the camp George Takei also called David a snake in the grass influenced, possibly, by Simon's snake obsession. He has been underwhelming in the jungle in the same way Sulu was like a spare prick at a wedding in Star Trek and seems to have no original thoughts of his own.
If there is any justice, to quote Martina, they will all get their cards in the coming days leaving David or Joe Swash as the winner.

I used to have crushes on pop stars
and DVD is one of them
I get upset when others slagging someone i like and also fancied.
Next time a celebrity I like comes to the jungle i hoped he/she will be liked and this will make me happy.
I got upset when Nicola was not nice to DVD
I dont like her and hope she gets slagged off as well.

Fozzy Khan, are you deluded, DVD may have been something in the 80s but he is the slimiest, laziest, most disgusting piece of filth that has ever entered the jungle - and that's including all the creepy crawlies and vermin that live there.
He disgusts me, he deliberatly winds up the rest of the camp - no he didn't deserve the contempt he got when he arrived, but since then he hasn't proved that the rest of the camp were wrong to pick on him, if I were there I would have done exactly the same thing.
He doesn't deserve to be there over the others and I can see a BB finale scenario happening, such as the one between nasty Jason and Nadia, where DVD comes second to Joe.
Joe Public - get some sense, he's NOT that entertaining, he's disgusting - I bet you're the same people that got Laura White kicked out of the X Factor!
