He is a great guy and that is known on here.
In the past he has, time allowing done a football game with me and others.
He's always supportive and friendly obviously when treated right.

As you say VTs do get exaggerated to get on the show.

I don't get the rather acidic put downs either.
I'm actually glad a TIBB member is on the show and it's great seeing him there too.

Okay,he may not be everyone's kind of housemate but even if didn't know of Raph on here, he would still be my favourite in this series with this bunch.
As he is my kind of housemate.

Mischievous, interesting,team player,friendly,not strongly aggressive, has his boundaries but outside of that much of anything else goes.
Makes his points when needed without resorting to insults.
A good all rounder for me,not in the background,not in your face,not using aggression,tantrums or false romantic storyline to get airtime.

I keep saying this word and it's he's a really nice housemate.
It appears nice is not what you should be on BB for some but that is the usual kind of housemate I like to support.

Yes,he'll talk about the others, yes he would like to win if he can, and plan a little how to.

They are all doing that for goodness sake.
He is called a snake for doing so which is in my view,totally and utterly ridiculous.
Good luck to him,I am proud to be supporting him,I will for sure do all I can to help him win.
