He was quirky, geeky, eccentric, stroppy, sensitive, emotional, funny, intelligent, kind and loyal (never once nommed Faye did he?).

All I know is that he was the sole reason I stuck with the show for 9 weeks, as he was always the centre of everything and he always entertained me even when he was stroppy, because he was p*ssing off the neanderthal and his trolls.

Well said
