Tom Read Wilson's CAMPervan to King or Queen of The Jungle

I'm on board, it's very dull at the moment, I hope Tom can bring some entertainment and make us some cash!

My pick too. His own endearing style and very witty. The young lads are witty too but Tom is wittier, probably due to being one of the few hm's with an over average IQ.

He will be terrified of most tasks which is great TV, as long as he can hang in there until the end. I think he will benefit more than most from the exposure so that's an incentive to hang on 'till bitter end.

That's me done with this ****

Christopher Biggins as camp as christmas.

Ah yes Biggins and he won.  That was a shocking year too, but a win is a win.

Yes Biggins came and nicked off Janice Dickinson who was very similar to Ruby in a lot of respects, though a touch more spikey

sorry just keeping in line with the 'camp' train

i don't even know who tom wilson is

Tim - getting the right Tom would be a good start before betting

He feels more BB than IAC, but should be entertaining

Absolute no hoper

Pass -will walk rather than the train thanks

Have two non-entities like our favs ever been less deserving of being 1.45 dutched? NO!!! Max red the pair of them

This is the thread where we lynch the posh **** tim

Well he didn't enter in the blaze of glory, doing a ghastly BTT or a fun task like the norm, that I was hoping for.  Being camp leader(s) and exempt from trials for at least the next two shows is a duff card to pull.  Earning your stripes and entertaining BTTs are an essential path to victory, especially as a late entrant.

But he is very engaging, is clearly going to offer entertainment (that only 3 of this field are doing) and is clearly going to feature heavily.  He is such a nice guy as well and that will come across as the series progresses.  And once the trial exemption is over he surely gets the next BTT, which hopefully they have set up with him in mind.  No one wants to do a 4 hander trial.

The other point is this is a shocking field.  I don't think Ginge or Aitch would be in the first two in either of the last 2 series.  Ruby who has been great value as a camp mate has shocking fundamentals and won't be doing trial after trial like Janice Dickinson did back in the day, who was also over 20 years younger.  The rest of the field are very boring and showing next to nothing yet.  I see potential in one of them, who I thought would be more engaging than they have been.  Maybe they can come out of their shell.  I still see Tom as clearly the biggest threat to the front 2 in the market.

Personally, I've gone to a neutral/scratch on him without taking any loss so far. I'm not sure I'm either a backer or layer on him as a selection from here, so makes sense to stay neutral.

This year has a feeling of rig up for the front two in the market and he could sadly be a victim of that.

Tom setting in much better today.

You had the chance of discounted tickets on the opening day and you lot panicked

Not referring to you Henry.  Rather the posters during his opening show.  Anyone who can get the 6/1 on the Sportsbook/PP/Sky (that's not many and the limits will be very low) and has a losing account should snap it up.  He looks like a group horse in a field of handicappers.

I strongly suspect he's going to be the star of tonight's show and prolly tomorrow's too.  He really should be fave imo and I think he prolly will be in a couple of days, despite the waves of casual money from young men for Ginge and Aitch.

Was a brilliant show for me last night as 3 of my 4 greens, Tom, Lisa and Shona were all big movers.  Have Lisa for top female and there are definitely suggestions that Lisa and Tom are going to best buds and she has a warmth about her that possible partnership is a real feel good one that can only be good for the both of them.  He's got all the women in camp wrapped around his finger already and prolly loads of women at home too.
