I didn't think that Alex's speech did him any favours. As I said earlier, I worry that what others see as funny things he did or said he will cringe at, and that he will be very uncomfortable hearing about them for however long it is.

As a lot of people only vote on the Friday, I think it came at a bad time. However he was still racing to the finishing line. Then he was tripped up by Tara Hyphen Poshbird's cringing endorsement, and, just as he struggled to his feet, Kathy Burke's rather pathetic supporting monologue came as a kick with hobnail boots to the ribcage. Does she begin to realise what a Berk (as opposed to Burke) that made her look?

I almost (but not quite) felt sorry for him after that!
