He defends Sarah and never gets personal or aggressive in arguments (we've not really seen him argue, but he has handled confrontations with Trish and Jemma calmly). It's a nice surprise, especially since a lot of the men recently have been aggressive (not opening this tin of beans), background characters (Derek), or cookie-cut 'lads' (we're talking Jam, Lewis and Bear, Kieran and Tom, etc) and because I (and others) assume he would be aggressive and possibly ejected after he was threatening on the Bachelor.

Also the lack of Amelia helps, since he realised how he acted to her was silly and he didn't want to make such a mistake again. A nice bit of growth and reflection on his actions shows he's changed (whether that's fake and part of his game, up to us decide but I like to think he's genuine) and it's nice to see that in a housemate. Also he's greatly toned down his self-obsessed, entitled behaviour, which is good to see

In a house filled with drama and no fun, it's nice that we have a little reprieve from it with Chad's friendship/flirting with Sarah and someone who takes up airtime without being controversial
