Those were the days. Up all night with Kitten & lori watching LF and slagging off Brian

Not sure who he was, i don't think many of todays posters could have survived the abuse thrown about back then

I enjoyed it

Morning after second show (no show on tonight):

Jimmy Bullard.........3.75 - 3.8     (drifted to around 5.7 yesterday, then shortened to a low of around 3.25 during the show, where some might have found him amusing)
Melanie Sykes.........4 - 4.2     (shortened to a low of 3.35 yesterday (plus £88 matched at 3.15) before drifting somewhat during the show)
Craig Charles...........6.2 - 6.4     (again drifted to mid 7s yesterday before shortening back to the 6s)
Tinchy Strider.........11 - 11.5     (had drifted to as high as 17.5, mostly invisible in the show, before then smashed into 10 after being voted for the next trial)
Gemma Collins.........14.5 - 15
Carl Fogarty............15 - 16     (had shortened to a low of 9 yesterday evening before then drifting during the show)
Nadia Forde............24 - 26
Michael Buerk..........32 - 34     (boring)
Vicky Michelle..........48 - 55
Kendra Williamson.....55 - 65

Jake Quickenden 20/1 and Edwina Currie 33/1 on the HS still

Back % 101.6, lay % 97.5, Amount matched £233,242

Main takeaway IMO is the Bullard hasn't shortened as much as you'd expect given CC's withdrawal. A solid favourite would be trading between Evs and 6/4 at most by now. But the layers are still queuing up to take him on. Verdict - we still have a false favourite.

Day 6, morning after 4th show. Jake & Edwina now in the camp but doing a secret mission.

Jimmy Bullard.........2.46 - 2.5       (moved quickly from near 3 to a low of 2.4 at beginning of last night's show when shown larking around )
Melanie Sykes..........4.1 - 4.3
Jake Quickenden.........10.5 - 11       (high hopes expected in such a poor field - already praised by Edwina for carrying her bags )
Nadia Forde............16 - 17
Carl Fogarty............16.5 - 18.5
Kendra Williamson.....26 - 28       (performed well on eating task and voted for next trial)
Tinchy Strider.........27 - 28       (mostly invisible)
Edwina Currie..........30 - 32
Michael Buerk..........46 - 50
Vicky Michelle..........100 - 110

For reference, Last year's show started on Sunday 17th Nov and finished on Sunday 8th Dec, so lasted 22 days. The first elimination was on Sunday 1st Dec, which was day 15. There were 12 celebrities (we currently only have 10 after Gemma and Craig left) and there were double eliminations on day 17, 19 and 20.

Day 9, morning after 7th show:

Jimmy Bullard...........1.84 - 1.87       (lowest 1.73 so far)
Melanie Sykes...........3.85 - 4       (lowest 3.15 so far)
Jake Quickenden.......7.8 - 8.4       (lowest 6.4 so far)
Nadia Forde..............36 - 46

50s bar. Amount matched £506,249. Melanie performed well in her task, earning 9 stars. Jake had a good show and was then voted for the first live BTT and did very well, earning all 10 stars. Jimmy received the second most votes and will do today's BTT. Doesn't look like any more newbies will be added to replace the two leavers.

Craig Charles is currently trading 130 - 180 but has been matched as low as 50 in recent days after portmanpark and GREEDISGOOD both created threads suggesting he might come back in.

big momentum with Jake
steady move for Nadia
Foggy coming in from his ludicrous false price

Mel on the drift a bit after some snappiness.
Bullard drifting like a barge (was matched at 2.14 last night)

Kendra

Momentum change is unstoppable. Bullard matched at 6/4 last night. And now the HS bookies have caught up, 11/10 available now and heading north. Jake into 3/1 on the HS, and will soon flip flop with Bullard.
The 1/2 on Bullard for top male looks especially laughable now

Day 15, Sunday morning after 12th show. First eviction tonight or tomorrow:

Jake Quickenden.......3 - 3.5       (trading mid 4s yesterday, shorted during last night's show on Jimmy's price drifting and being on the receiving end of Jimmy's "banter")
Jimmy Bullard...........3.65 - 3.9       (*see below)
Melanie Sykes...........5.5 - 6.4
Michael Buerk...........12.5 - 13       (had shortened to mid 20s during Friday's show, further shortening yesterday's show, some funny sarcastic remarks made)
Carl Fogarty..............15 - 15.5
Edwina Currie...........20 - 23       (price collapse last night, was around 50 early evening, hit a low of 14 after the show + £36 matched at 12 **)
Nadia Forde..............32 - 48
Kendra Williamson.....55 - 75
Tinchy Strider...........120 - 190
Vicky Michelle...........270 - 370

Amount matched £686,991

* During Friday night's show, Jimmy was in full on "entertaining" mode but was annoying most of the other campers and a lot of viewers in the process, yet was still trading in the 2.2s. He had drifted to around 2.5 by early evening yesterday, then during last night's show he was shown, what he classed as banter, giving Jake a hard time about not being famous, being quite spiteful. It came across awful, and the price swiftly increased.

** Edwina's price collapsed due to her firstly winning 8 stars after being voted for the latest trial, performing very well (a la Thatcher) then winning a team challenge (to decide who are up for first elimination) against Foggy. She was 33/1 Top Female with Laddies and 20/1 elsewhere yesterday before the show.

Doing a great job as always horse

Dullard best price on outrights with HS is 9/2 currently.

nice roundup ahwnn

your a legend horse

who's your cash on mate, as your the forum shrewdie

Cheers Army. I'm nicely green on Jake, Foggy and Edwina. Small greens Mel, Kendra and Vicky. Medium sized red on Tinchy. Laying Jimmy has made my book healthy. I should back Tinchy now but refuse to at his current price...hope I don't live to regret that.

4th Elimination - Vicky Michelle  (Kendra announced as the other It Might Be You)

Vicky was the uneasy fav to be eliminated. Trading around 2.8 early doors, she shortened to the 2.2s in the evening, then briefly hit odds on during the show, then drifted to her last price matched of 2.54. Highest matched 2.94, lowest 1.86 for £12 then 1.94 upwards.

The other last prices matched - Kendra 3.95, Edwina 4.9, Mel 9, Tinchy 20, Foggy 34, Jake 150. £11,393 matched



Day 20, Friday morning after 17th show and Vicky's elimination. Double elimination tonight (3 more shows to go):

Jake Quickenden.......2.2 - 2.22       (2.9s at 6pm yesterday, shortened during and after the show. New low of 2.02 reached with £186 matched there)
Carl Fogarty..............4.1 - 4.4       (around 3.6 at 6pm yesterday)
Melanie Sykes...........7 - 7.2       (4.5 at 6pm yesterday, drifted during and after the show)
Tinchy Strider...........11 - 11.5       (around 11 at 6pm yesterday, shortened to 8, and a bit below, when doing the trial, 6 out of 7 stars obtained, before drifting again after show)
Edwina Currie...........14 - 15.5       (around 18 at 6pm yesterday 
Kendra Williamson.....60 - 85

Amount matched £939,690
