I've got to be honest, that was the first time I've seen it mentioned.

I like Platt, loved his celebrations last year in the run in...mega. Love his potato head and his interviews. He's contributed to the most amazing period in the last 40 years of City and he's all right by me.

Now Marwood on the other hand....

Did he lose it for being missing all those years when he was swept out to sea?

I hadn't even noticed that you weren't 'til you mentioned it. Hope that helps...

I didn't have a choice in the matter, some of us are born to legend status, others have it thrust upon them.

I, on the other hand, was threatened.

i hadn't expected a deep knife wound so early in the contest. I may bleed out from this, but i won't go down alone jon.

I thought you would have enjoyed the challenge more, but now it's fairly primal and barbaric. I'll need a moment to regroup and catch my wits...surely you can oblige me that?

cheers

He always came across as a bit of a tool to me, the socially awkward with not too many redeeming features type.

In saying that who gives a fuck what he's like as long as he gets the job done. Things seem very positive around the camp at the moment and you'd have to give him credit for being part of the mix that brought that about.

Still a tool though
