I am of the same thinking Vid

I think they'll choose Steve, personally.

Josie will be there anyway, Vids, sorry!

ha ha blizzie bless ya!

I bet it's Steve. wouldn't be my choice as he's so boring but they seem to like him

Her or Steve. The HMs are unlikely to agree on anyone else. It certainly won't be Corin which is a shame as she could be in real danger from the teeny vote next week!

nah they'll all want to come over as caring and humanitarian, so they'll choose Steve...No way would Josie let JJ out of her sight for a week, she'd be too scared he'd cop off with some random bloke..

 As my nana used to say, many a true word is said in jest! You're not far wrong in your way of thinking Senora.

I'm with ya Lizzie

I dont understand the support for Josie on here, shes as fake as a £8 note.

Unless you don't think of her as being fake?

Which most people do and she shows signs of it on a daily basis.

Like Aisleyne was a FAKER?

Who would you give it to, Vid?

They'll pick Steve, the heroic one who at age 19 managed to save the entire world before getting his legs blown off.

And of course he deserves it, the poor thing has probably never worked since, and who could expect him to, it must be a measley existence with only his army pension, disability allowance, child benefit for all the kids, probably a free modified car, she maybe gets carers allowance, and the whole family will probably get council tax reduction cos they are so worthy   I would just hate to be state wealthy, scrounging a new car off the country every year. What a horrible way to live!

So of course he deserves the free ticket, and the overall prize of a 100k.

Anyone but the J's and Mario....Corin would be my choice.

If he copped the cash, he'd likely lose some of his benefits anyway.
I think they'll choose Steve so that they can show themselves as caring etc

well lets hope you dont get your legs blown of then, and lose an eye while you are there

i think they will pick Steve as well

What I dont get is, why do people think Steve is a hero?   he didn't save anyones life, he wasn't fighting a war,  he just got unlucky and got caught in a bomb blast, it could have happened to anyone of us,  would that make us heroes too.?

who said he was a hero

In fairness, at the beginning of the show most of the hm's called him a hero. It caused quite a stir on this forum as to whether he could be considered one or not. Moreover, in many of the pr stuff he was called a 'war hero'.

I think anyone living with Steve,s disabilities is a hero, and whatever benefits he gets he deserves, at least his are genuine ...

well said

A very dismissive account of what happened to him.

The reality is the bomb was remotely detonated at the moment he passed the bomb.  It was detonated with the aim of killing him.  After the bomb had detonated, the thugs proceeded to set dogs on him to bite him as he lay on the floor in agony.

He explained all this to Ben in the first week.  It's incredibly disturbing what happened to the poor guy.

Spider, that is appalling. No getting away from it. Any right thinking person would cconcur with that. HOWEVER, there are those that balk at the idea of him being considered a hero. Many think he should not have been in NI in the first place or was in the wrong place at the wrong time.

He was in the army and under orders to patrol the said area that had the bomb.
You follow orders when you're in the army.He deserves all his benifits,He's not scrounging pretending he can't work with a bad back etc claiming benefits then doing a job elsewhere and getting paid and not paying tax.

I'm not a fan of Steve in the house but OMG there are so many times when I get a catch in my throat when I see his disabilities. Please believe me I do not mean that in a patronising way but in a humane way. Jesus, I genuinely applaud the man for getting on with a productive life after such horrendous injuries, it cannot have been easy.

I thought she walked into the house with it.
