...Whether freddie goes or stays this Friday, I would just like to THANK the executive producer of BB10 for handpicking Freddie for the series.....after meeeting him at a chance party...and finding him unusual.....

the producer was criticised for doing this but others such as Noirin and isaac were handpicked from the Aussie reality show..and people have been found in this way before...Ziggy had been part of a pop group for instance.....

For me, Freddie has been the most real person I have seen on a REALITY Tv show in this reality tv era....the oppsite of all the PLASTIC wannabes we see in the media today in our heavily botoxed celebrity cyulture..where everyone is plastically or surgically enhanced like Sophie.......and wants to be yet another Chantelle or peter andre.
Many of us actually CHOOSE ..NOT to live in that plastic world and Freddie has been a gentle softspoken alternative to that LOUD abrasive culture
....
He reminds me of Prince Myshkin, the central 'holy fool' character in Dostoyevski's great novel 'THE IDIOT, a person from the upper classes who passes through society as an outcast, regarded as a fool, but somehow one of the most wise persons in it................he even looks like Christ at times.

Anyway I am enormously grateful to the producers of BB10 for letting us gett o know Freddie a liille these past 10 weeks, it has been a truly REVELATORY and moving tv experience, up there with all my moments over tv watching the past 40 years.
