Yeah i've noticed that. I was reading the sun yesterday at work and all they try to do is get people to dislike him which i dont think is working because people still like him, i know i do.

More than anything I have respect for him because he has admitted he has had issues and he seeked help for that and that is a great way for other people will issues, either in drink/drugs or anything can look up to him as a support.
I have not glanced at any paper which supports barrymore, one after the other is slating him to pieces which is really unfair. I dont think alot of people like to give him the time of day because all the things in the papers they start to believe.
Im not saying he is perfect or he should win the show but all the press on him and some peoples perceptions of him are really harsh, considering what he has had to deal with in the past and the fact he has not given up the chance to come back to the Uk is a good sign. He is a very determined man as far as I can see.
I think some of his comments about Jodie have been a little unfair but I think he genuinely wants her to admit she has some issues and seek help like he has/is doing.
