Well I didn't think it was possible, but I do actually like Brian more since he came out of the house. In fact, I grew to love him more in the last few weeks as he calmed down a lot. He thought all the attention would be on Paul and Helen, which allowed him to relax a lot, and he really came into his own.
Since leaving the house, I've seen just about every appearance he's ever done, including the pop idol final. I didn't think he looked the worse for drink at all, I remembered it being a lovely interview. (I'd better dig the video out and see if I can see any tell-tale signs! lol) On every single occasion he's made me feel proud of his wit, professionalism and all-round loveliness!
I've also been lucky enough to meet him, and found him to be every bit as thoughtful, kind and considerate as I'd seen him in the house. He put me at ease straight away, although I was still very tongue-tied! Nothing was too much trouble and it's something I'll never forget. So my answer has to be an emphatic
MORE!!
