Like him. Not surprised he is the favourite to win as he is probably the most known, but I hope he doesn't win  just because he well known. For my vote, he will need to earn it. But I don't vote anyway.

I dont like him saw him in his own reality TV show I found him fake big headed and was into blood thirsty sports which I am against...

I like the fact that he's a devoted husband and family man, and that he's made something of his life. I don't like his penchant for hunting and shooting at all.
And he had a very dangerous glint in his eye when it dawned on him that Heidi didn't actually know who he was.
Not one to get into a row with, I wouldn't have thought.

What Marg said

Same here, I really cannot abide it either.

I think Vinnie Jones is doing a transference thing.
Sublimating his impulses.

There has hardly ever been a series where we have not seen somebody trying to have power over the others by taking control of the kitchen or the cleaning.
(It usually fails because resentment creeps in.)
I would guess Vinnie may be sublimating his feelings and hoping it brings power.
He would be wrong of course - it often brings resentment.

Vinnie has previously said that he  got stuck in to washing up and cleaning to keep busy. This  would be a distraction from how he felt.
Avoidance by burying yourself in something else. Distraction tactics are well known.
It is something to do, especially if you want to avoid saying something

So I wonder what feelings he is trying to avoid.
What is he trying to distract himself from?

Whatever it may be, I find him a pretty mean-spirited man. Not a nice trait.

Big bully Vinnie received no nominations this week.

I don`t like him. He has a domineering, intimidating air about him. He may have said that he thinks Alex is a nice bloke but I don`t like the way he has treated him so far

He likes to blow his own trumpet, and makes cringe worthy jokes that he and only he find extremely funny.

"I'll have a P please bob", , very droll, very droll.

I think some housemates feel intimidated by Alex.
And who does he think he is to be giving advice about life and life-choices to Alex.
I would not seek advice from Vinnie.
Also I think much of what he said to Alex was revealing about himself. While attempting to be seen as a tolerant man of the world he came across to me as someone who is uncomfortable with cross-dressing, and perhaps even elements of being gay.
I don't like his cocky and intimidating air.

I rather liked the way he punctured Alex's whinging ego - constantly going on about "meeja intrusion" but doing everything in his power to make sure he stays in the headlines.
Vinnie pointed out quite neatly that if he doesn't want attention, parading naked in the garden was hardly the road to anonymity.

I agree Deman. .he summed it up at the end when he asked is that the end of the Alex hour for today...

I don't find him intimidating at all.. just straightforward when confronted with a moaning minnie who is doing nowt to help his own cause just making it worse..

That's probably cos he (Alex) hasn't got the attention span to actually listen beyond the first few sentences unless it   involves something that he thinks is in his interest/to his benefit i.e. Stephen and the James Bond suggestion. .Alex was all cauliflower ears then

I should think Vinnie (and the rest of them) are pretty fed up of telling Alex how to change the public perception of himself by not doing or admitting to doing stupid things that are only half truths if anything... then Alex not paying attention and moaning on and on every day about the same rubbish and acting like a thick moron in the process.. ..  I'd be sharp and abrupt with him too.. actually I'd walk away and leave him too it.. Vinnie can't 

Olly  
You can actually hear Vinnie's brain ticking over in amusement as he listens to all that bullshine - he's clearly wondering if the bloke is for real, and enjoying watching him talk himself into looking an even bigger idiot than he first seemed.

Ah Demantoid and Mount Olympus. Thanks for your comments.
I hadn't realised that Alex had been doing some moaning which had perhaps become tedious.
I still think Vinnie Jones is somewhat intimidating, but I appreciate you both for giving a more comprehensive picture. Appreciated.

could write loads "ALL BAD" suffice to say I dont like anything whatsoever about Vinnie Jones and I totally agree with Margueritas post above.

I find Vinnie too full of himself and I ddin't like the way he spoke about Ivana yesterday.

I didn't like that either, I must say. Although I didn't like many of them at the time - way too much moaning and histrionics all round.

hahah so true

Brisket, Vinnie has been trying to get Alex to understand how he is the cause of his own press from almost day one..


it's not clicked with Alex or it's not what he wants to hear  and every day he brings the same rubbish up.. 

I think Vinnie is/was/can still be a nasty piece of work in certain situations ie his footy career   and maybe in general day to day life too. .bit of a bruiser type.. I  can imagine him after a few bevvies in the pub standing up large if there was trouble but he also has a bit of sense and man of the world about him too and is trying to drum some of that into Alex.. not by force tho as Alex asks for the advice  every day and possibly twice on Sundays!

I love Vinnie Jones!

Hard man Vinnie maybe.In the house I find him entertaining and hard working.He didn't take any guff from Stephen about Nicola either.He is very much his own man.

^ that.

i like vinnie on the show,his master of the universe act makes me laugh, and he comes out with the  occasional gem.

in reality he'd get right up my nose, he's cut of the same cloth as stephen, just better at it, domineering  and the fount of all knowledge.

Ahh, I've just remembered. Alex was also bragging that Joe Calzaghe has been on all the front pages (of what - the LaLa Land Post?) saying he wants to fight him.
Course he does, love. A former world champion really thinks a not-very-good cage fighter would be a worthy opponent. He'd wipe the wall with you, with one hand tied behind his back. Now stop being so bloody silly and just PIPE DOWN!
"Media pressure", my aunt..

Didn't like him much to start with now warming to him My fave comment was when he said about Kat having to put all her effort in to putting one foot in front of the other i'd noticed the same and how he was flabbergasted at Steven for thinking Nicky was the devil reicarnated

Can't stand him.... think that sums it up

He's a clean-freak, moralising thug.

Thank god(Not quoting Stephen) for Vinnie.

Kept hearing his invasive voice making his `expert` comments from off-screen in tonight's show.
He is bumptious.

So was there discussion?
Or did Vinnie simply appoint himself to the position of Big Boss.

There was a fingerprint on one of the surfaces.

He had to take back kitchen control!

I thought he was ok first few days, now I see him as patronising, a control freak, sarcastic and really bitchy, basically I think he's obnoxious

the more of him I see, the less I like him

I still think he'll walk it all the way to the winning post .... but I won't be voting for him

His whispered 'GET OUT' as Katia was exiting ranks as one of the most sly digs that i can recall hearing on any series of Big Brother.

me too.... but then I have always felt that way about him

I like Vinnie.  He likes his own way and at the moment no-one is really up to taking him on.  I'll be interested to see how he handles it if anyone really stands up to him.  But for now I like him a lot

and that's the very reason I dislike him .... Sov (and possibly Dane)  are the only ones who have challenged Vinnie so far .... but everyone flocks to Vinnie .... no wonder Sov is seen as a fly in the ointment ... the odds are well stacked agaisnt her .... she hasn't got a cat in hells chance in there
Lets face it, no one is going to take Vinnie on now ..... they are all keeping thier heads down hoping to make the final

He is exactly the sort of bloke I would rebel against.

me too Blizzie ... can't stand people like that
