I don't really like him as a person BUT he is a good housemate and I rather see him than Daley and Sophie who haven't done anything really but Im afraid I think he might go Friday

[Pink Pegasus]

I think he would annoy me if I had to to live with him in the BB house, he is very moany and does tend to just keep going on and on about stuff for too long.
However I get the feeling that the house is driving him mad and that he is probably much more laid back and less easily annoyed on the outside world. I heard him saying things like 'I shouldn't have said that', 'this house is crazy', 'why can't I just sit on the fence like everyone else?!'.

I think it's messing with his head and he just can't seem to hold back and bite his tongue over even little things. Afterwards, he does seem a bit annoyed with himself for getting involved in an argument or for moaning/saying anything in the first place.
I also remember how laid back, calm and in control he behaved in the first day or 2. He just seemed so down to earth and not at all overly dramatic and moany. As I said, I think he he's probably calmer and more reserved/in control in his emotions on the outside but is slowly going crazy in there!

A lot of the time I'm thinking, 'for god's sake Dan, quit while you're ahead and just shut up!' other times I'm in full agreement with him - for example the Jemima argument and also with Wolfy's lying.

He does seem funloving and lighthearted with people he likes. I also think he's kind to people who are genuinely upset, and does seem to want to keep the peace between people if he can.

Don't think he's a bad person, just very,very annoying at times! I think he's a good housemate.

[Gillian-73]

I've started to like him as a housemate abit more recently but if Wolfy is saved tomorrow out of him Dexter and Gina I will want him to go. Shame it might come to that!

I love Dan because he, out of all the HM's is the most REAL. He is always just himself and doesn't alter his personality or behaviour even when he knows that being himself could be detrimental to his chances of staying in the house.
He's a born sleuth and he knows that it is causing problems for him but he isn't reining himself in and sucking up just to gain brownie points and get people off his back. He's no game player. He is unrelentingly HIM and I admire that.
He goes with his instincts and says what he thinks...but I haven't seen him being unkind or deliberately undermining anyone.
I think he has a big heart and is quite sensitive. I bet if someone genuinely broke down and needed help Dan would be the one to really feel for them and be there. Watch this space....

I see him differently. I like him a lot and see many good qualities in him. He's obviously a love/hate character which means he's a great BB housemate! Someone who stirs up such strong emotions in people are great, memorable characters who will always be included in the hall of fame. It's all good.

[Vanessa]

He's a bit of a pillock, but he's growing on me.

...touché my friend.

[Cherie]

I have to say I loved Dan last night, and I have not been a fan at all.

That is pleasing to hear Cherie, nice to find some looking at him fairly.I saw little wrong as to him last night either.

[Maneki-neko]

I like him a lot but I understand why others don't

Your dead right, he's by far the most intresting character in there, he is my favourite HM this year, & I think he is spot on most of the time about people opinions & things they do & say in the house, I would love to see him win, but sadly I don't think that will happen.

Imagine relying on that poofy twat to help you as a police officer.

"Oooh Matron. That bad man is looking at me funny".

has anyone figured out why he left the old bill. mmmmmmmm. I wonder how long it will take to unearth his reasons.

What,by the way has being gay got to do with anything as to his role as a Detective actually, not just a police officer.

Also as he has been involved with the Jimmy Saville case, then clearly he will have had a pretty good record of his time in the force too to be so.

What a horrible thing to say

[Inkyfingers]

Dan is great especially without Hazel hanging round his neck but he really needs to keep it together now and make the most of his time in the house. Forget about who is acting/gameplaying, let the viewers decide on that.

[Lee.]

I don't mind him actually.. He's not my kind of person, but he's a good housemate.

He's awesome.

If Wolfy doesn't go, Gina should.

Dan and Dex have made this series so far.

[Rob5]

He is a good housemate, up himself and annoying, fun to watch

[Angel67]

The ONLY thing I don't like about Dan is his Diva outbursts. Sometimes I think he overreacts to situations.

As for his inquisitiveness, I think it's just him and his background. I don't think he's deliberately out to upset Wolfy with is questioning but without even realising it, he may still be married to the job.

[HBB1508]

He was my favourite on launch night - then I went right off him as he got on my nerves with his constant interrogation of people and hanging around with Hazel most of the time and his bitching - but I must say he is clawing it back now and he is up there with Dexter as one of my favourites again.

[MatthewS]

I'm not convinced Dan is truly the Alpha male of the house yet. I guess he has it now, but to be fair, nobody else has really challenged him. It'll be interesting to see what happens when he gets really called at some point. He's pretty good at criticizing others but will he be able to take it when someone really has a go at him? We saw last night that he can't even handle getting a simple nomination without playing the victim card and then pressing for what he deems a 'valid' reason. Then when he gets a reason he runs to Gina for validation.

[aj2463]

Are all these "bad things" really so bad? He's no worse than Wolfy or Gina when in an argument. And if he's a bitch then good stuff
