Will nobody say what the rest are doing other than talking and why it is not shown on the highlight shows?

Do they build a human pyramid and have Katia do a flaming fart that fires Jonas off the top of it or something? It surely has to be something spectacular as I've only seen them all talking so far, which would surely make them all as boring as Vinnie.

To me the most boring seem to be Dane who doesn't talk much and Stephen who talks too much.

Loved his"If bullshit was music ,we would have a brass band in there" Great one liner !!

Spot on.

For a start people in England always have great affinity for the majority of sportsmen.

True, I think maybe it is because there talent or what they bring to the game is measurable more than say an actor or a musician which is more subjective I guess.

Are you sure you didn't imagine them!

You seem to have a bit of a thing with so-called 'one-liners'.

Vinnie had some great banter with the others and was really entertaining in this HL show.

If you call Vinnie as host very witty you should get out more.

They were all quite entertaining in that show - as it was all a bit of a laugh! A good atmosphere. I don't think he stood out in particular.

The younger ones seem to have cast him in the role of 'daddy' and unfortunately he seems to be playing that role as opposed to a 'wilder' Vinnie Jones that fans of the show were expecting. So there is a difference between preconceptions and the man, hence the flood of posts complaining he's boring. I didn't think he was oldest male to be cast as 'daddy' until Baldwin said he's only 43 (or did I mishear?!)

But then again, who'd want Baldwin to be their daddy - he'd gladly see you shot rather than renounce God.
