Whether he does or he doesn't (and I'm not sure he could keep up an act for all this time), I find him really likeable. He and Tony are my favourites - either of them for the win!

Sam’s ADHD is out of control, but I do find it quite amusing. To their credit, a lot of the men in the camp have accepted Sam exactly as he is, and have shown great sensitivity and understanding - in particular, Marvin, Nick and Tony. Tony has shown such tolerance and patience with Sam, as well as love and affection. The way Tony hugged Sam after reading his letter was full of fondness, and you can’t fake that. And I don’t think Tony is the type of guy who would fake it.

I think Sam is bringing out the best qualities in many others, and in these three in particular, and that only increases their chances of winning.

There was actually a little blood on his temple where the mosquito was squished

Sam had the best edit last night and has gone to 4/7 in the betting but I still don't think he's got it in the bag. Tony is mega popular on Facebook especially with the older ones who are more likely to vote.

Personally I don't think it's fair that he came in nearly a week late and hasn't gone through the earlier trials and jumping out of helicopters to get to camp. He was probably chauffered in and then a short walk into camp with Frankie. If Sam wasn't there to play him up he wouldn't have got the airtime and be nearly as popular as he seems to be. It might be controversial but without Sam he seems a bit of a dullard.

I like Tony, but I think you have a point here. I think Sam has actually brought out the best side of many of those in camp, in particular Tony, Marvin and Nick. Even Nigel is showing tolerance with him. In some way, we’ve seen qualities of camp mates characters that perhaps we wouldn’t have without Sam’s presence, which is a good thing as it all makes up the person they are, and makes them all more interesting to watch.

Good points, I totally agree.

When he wins he might aswell laugh in everyone's faces and scream "ha ha i fooled you all" .

I don't think so Sam doesn't seem to have a nasty bone in his body, he might come across as a bit OTT but there's nowhere else left that deserves to win and I certainly can't see anyone in there that can stop him now. Tony Bellend is starting to show a nasty side and while Nigel Farage is coming up fast on the rails I certainly can't see him beating Sam.

Of course Sam is going to win it's so predictable.

I guess he didn't win CBB because of his formal warning ,so now he's trying his luck at IAC ...and he knows he's going to win .

He slapped someone's breast/ nipple, they were wearing a see through top or something. And he thought it was funny. And the person gasped that it hurt . But I think she said she was ok about it after BB asked her. Probably because she was friends with him.

That’s faulty processing … akin to throwing little stones onto Tony’s face .. one hit him in his eye .. luckily it was closed at the time

So basically Sam can do what he wants and we have to excuse it as his 'ADHD' . He's a grown ass 30 year old man . Even if a child is misbehaving with additional needs ,you still address that what they're doing is wrong . You don't just say " oh well they can't help it ", obviously you try to have a better understanding ...but you don't just let off their bad behaviour.

Sam is Peter Griffin

I wouldn’t say it’s an excuse… as neither examples are acceptable.. simply a reason.

Well it is an excuse , as back in BB I don't think he was diagnosed with ADHD . But now anything he does is seen as 'endearing ' & 'funny', because bless him he has ADHD. Anne Hegerty was in the jungle a few years ago ,and she has autism :shrug: .

The thing is, the camp mates don’t seem to have the issue you do with Sam, who is obviously very popular amongst them. They are all grown adults, old enough and strong enough to speak up for themselves, if they feel the need. They just don’t.

Sam is harmless, he really hasn’t done anything terrible, and is more mischievous than anything else. Some viewers may find him irritating, but many don’t. It’s all down to personal preferences and tolerances, but is he really so bad in the great scheme of things that he is deserving of constant criticism?

Great post :clap1:

He isn't everyone's cup of tea but very strange some of the vitriol he is getting. It's like people think he has some weird power over production and his camp mates.

He would drive me mad if I were in there but I like him a lot
