Default Just a cheap retread of BB2 Brian
Let's be honest he was just a slightly more contentious version of BB2 winner Brian Dowling. Nothing new or fresh that we haven't seen before from BRIAN.

Just because he's gay and Irish doesn't make him the same as Brian. They have completely different personalities

Besides them both not being straight and being Irish they have different personalities. Hughie is far more confrontational and Brian is far more witty. Brian was bitchier and Hughie was more upfront.

But yes Hughie would have given us another gay Irish winner which would have been iconic.

They were absolutely nothing alike, apart from being Irish.

For a start Hughie had a much more confrontational personality, came from a traveller background and if I remember said he was bi-sexual during the first week.

They only thing they have in common in they're both apart of the LGBT community and Irish. Brian Dowling is a funny, kind and deserving winner. Hughie is an aggressive, confrontational and ott runner-up. Its like the whole Natalie/Pauline comparisons just because they're older black ladies :/

As I said elsewhere he just mixed and matched stuff we'd all seen before. He's a big fan of the show and it showed, but not in an original way that's for sure.

How was Hughie anything like Brian?

However, had you compared Chris from a few years back with Andy, then I'd agree with you.
