Is it just me, or do most people hate him and find him a self centred egotist?

Also, am I the only one who hates Hollyoaks with a passion?

While I am here, has anyone noticed that multipack products, such as beans or cola, do not taste as nice as a single tin?

I used to watch Neighbours when it was with Kylie and Jason, but I was quite young then too(actualy the same age as Kylie). I dont watch soaps as a rule these days.

You raise an interesting point about the multipack. I'd like to subscribe to your newsletter.

My observations on Multipacks:

Beans Single tin empties nicely into the sausepan and has no "black beans" Multipack beans will sit in the tin until your force them out with a spoon. Also a far greater number of "Black beans"

Coke Tins. Pour a glass of coke from a multipack tin, then one from a single bottle or tin and tell me they taste the same!

Crisps multipacks are generally less flavoursome than individual packs and usually (Skips for example) more oily tasting and thinner.

Multipack ice lollys seem to be the exception to the rule.

Bottled Coke is the same, and I can't say I can tell the difference between cans of Coke whether multipack or not.

This comes from someone that can tell the difference between Diet Pepsi, normal Pepsi, Diet Coke, normal Coke, Cherry Coke, Pepsi Max and Coke Zero

I have to say I am a bit of a coke connoisseur and breath takingly fussy about food. I really can taste the difference.

Can we make this a poll? Who dislikes Wossy and who likes Mr Ross? I will take on any Coke challenge!

I think the Coke thing depends on where it is bottled. When I was in Cyprus, I could not drink the coke there, it tasted odd. But there are a lot of minerals in the water there. I found I could only drink Fanta orange while there. Perhaps the Multipack cans are made elsewhere, somewhere cheaper perhaps, to keep the cost down.

According to that he made his breakthrough in January 1987. So whilst he may not have been "famous" he seemed to have been on his way before they married.

I vaugely remember him from the early days of Ch4. He did nto seem as bad then. Then they did this mockumentry about him and saying he was the fifth Beetle etc, total rubbish it was. Not sure when the hate set in, perhaps around the time he started his talk show. He ruined an episode of QI once, bet he is never asked back.
