I think you would get more conversation out of my dog!

Hi UV how you doing...

JJJ I missed the show, franky I cant imagine what John James has any interest to talk about, he has such a monotonous voice nothing of real interest, I cannot believe Alan had him on the show, I even get bored writting this about him..

That's it, you have nailed it with that word, JJ1 has a monotonous voice, and no wit or anything of real interest to say, so nothing to hold any attention for long, apart from the swooning girlies and some women who tend to look past his lack of charisma.

Ben can put a witty slant on stuff when interviewed, and he can hold the attention of the listener, that and having a voice that captures the attention. Ben could be being interviewed and talking about bog rolls, and I would find his voice so honey trickling on the tongue gorgeous I would still be enthralled by it.

HI SUZE, how you doing....

Yes Ben voice is lovely quite soothing, I hope people in the media world see the talent Ben has, I think he would make a brilliant preseneter TV or Radio host fresh and new people are needed in the media...
It is about time the tv and world got new, fresh talent !!1111

I think the lovely Ben Duncan is going to go far....

He really has hit the big time
Sorry we are all happy to have a Ben fix and unlike the other BB housemates at least he seems to be going places without the need for a fake romance....

Oh dear - have no interest in watching him - we all saw what a verbally nasty piece of work he was in the house.....his false modesty is laughable

He only put eyeliner on when he saw Ben wearing it for weeks - says it all - he is the least metrosexual man in the house

We Bennites think that Ben would make the perfect radio host. You should hear him with Jo Goode or with Jamie on Vital Radio. He is a natural at it.

This has been mentioned on another thread but not here ...

Next Tuesday (i.e. the same day as the This Morning appearance) Ben is going to the National Film Theatre (BFI Southbank) to see the Coronation Street 50th Anniversary Event with Corin

It was sold out - but they have just released a few more tickets

I am going to be there with AN Other Bennite sitting with Ben and Corin

If anyone out there lives anywhere near London and fancies getting one of the newly released remaining tickets for this they could send me a message and I'll tell you roughly which part of the auditorium we are sitting in

Maybe we'll even have a drink before or after the event?

I would have loved to come but it's my son's birthday that day (curses self for bad timing all those years ago!). That's another reason I love Ben - he's a Corrie fan like me

Popular day ... !

I shall ... have been looking forward to it ever since I first spotted it as an event with no date yet ... immediately thought 'that is a MUST for Ben and Corin!' ... it absolutely had their name on it ...

I am looking forward to meeting Corin ... and Ben says that she is looking forward to meeting me too ... which is sweet ... (but he might just be schmoozing ... )

Ben and I went to the Roger Moore screening and interview there together some little time ago ... it is SUCH a great place ... it will probably be Corin's first visit ... she may well fall in love with it too ... they have such interesting sessions ... they even provide the audience with a printout of the cast and crew of all the films they show ... with some interesting thoughts and articles reproduced on the sheet as well ... and there is absolutely NO popcorn eating ... the ONLY place to catch a film ... he he he

: dance:

So pleased that Ben and Corin's friendship is still ongoing, I felt it was one of the most genuine ones in the house. I just wish she would distance herself more from Mario. Have a great evening and come back and tell us all about it.

We should have a Bennites party one day, somewhere posh in London with Cocktails and canape's and Ben as the guest of honour. Would you be up for that Pyramid?

You might already know of this Voddy, but I've just had a very quick call from UV. She is meeting up with Ben and another housemate for a wee jolly get together tomorrow night. (don't want to mention too much or the name of the other housemate).

Oh yes... I'm definately up for that - however due to location, location, location, it would have to be a weekend - and given Ben's hectic schedule, that's the difficult part.

Yeah I knew about that, and if I didn't live a zillion miles away from London I'd have been there as well
