I am absolutely certain that the vast majority of things McCrirrick says is for effect and just to wind people up - this is what makes him so funny to watch (maybe I can relate to that perhaps

) Every now and then, though, he hits the nail on the head and says something that needs to be said (his views on Josie and John James were absolutely spot on)
Coolio is just a dick on legs - within hours of being in the house, he was massaging Makosi's thigh and suggesting they go into the toilet for a quickie! He obviously thinks she's some kind of a ho-bag, which is SO deeply insulting! At least with John M, you can laugh it off.
Have to say, off-topic, Nadia has, IMO, matured so much since 2004. She was lovely with Makosi when she was upset. She was right with her advice to Josie about JoJa.
