Alex gets the Anorak treatment

Our regular Anorak correspondant appears to have missed this one.............


read it here


Gosh, those people at Anorak are slimeballs...........well, we know that from their snidey reports about Our Katie, but this takes the biscuit...........


I think having a Celebrity Housing Officer is a great step forward...........other social services should take note................there are lots of former reality TV contestants out there who would love to have the opportunity to contribute something back to 'the little people'


Well done, Alex !!

Would he have been better suited to Environmental Health?

Well.............I think this is a very good trend that our Alex is starting here..............


I mean, how many times do you want to scream at the TV..........'Hey, wannabe, stop ligging and get a job!'..........


Wonder if it will catch on ?

A bit feeble by Anorak's standards. Then again, there's nothing shameful about being a housing officer and going to college, so not much ammunition there for them.

Alex never "scrounged"..he did plenty of work arfter leaving the house, and enjoyed himself in the process

..and now he is settled down into a steady relationship and a decent job..

Good luck to him!

Good grief Swing, you must love Alex to hunt out an article from back in July at least he has a job and doesn't hunger for fame unlike ( and yes I am going to mention her, so there ) Kate.

Still suppose Anorak will do an article on Kate again when/if ever, someone risks giving her a job in the media that she so obviously craves, but I am sure she is happy living off of her boyfriend Woodgate for now

You'll never believe this, skaz, but before I became such a huge Alex fan, I occasionally used to poke fun at him and the Angels chased me all over the forum.........


*cue theme from 'Benny Hill'*


And me with my sore leg............


It was all good fun until 'The Committee' got involved........phew. that was a close call. Fortunately the big guns had bystander in their sights.........


But the Angels are wonderful, I love them all very dearly..........

Tsk. It's a thread about Alex and you have to bring Kate into it.

Wasn't the Sibley family business in housing?

If so, it's hardly surprising that Alex has gone into that line.

And whatever line he's in, he's still absolutely gorgeous, fascinating and the only son of wealthy parents.

A fairly desirable combination IMO.

Of course, it can bring out the bitchy side in some other blokes.......

Oh, darling....swing? bitchy?....wrong bloke to pick on.


Feel free to tear any of the BB3 males to bits though, especially the "only son of wealthy parents"

Sorry, that made me laugh. It implies so much!! The letters IPMW arranged in a different way, come to mind

Can't think why they would. There's no-one alive less wimpy than Alex. Jonny made that mistake early on in BB3.

That's the trouble with believing in steriotypes, of course.

And as for swing not being bitchy! Well!!

As long as you never juggle oranges and don't mind being bored half to death by that cheesewire Essex monotone.

Not Alex's biggest fan (to say the least) arrogant, sour loser are the words to spring to mind.........but what on earth are they going on about. He has a job. Its a job serving the community. He has excaped from the BB label. He made some money from it which will improve his life. He got Mel who was pretty outstanding in the looks department and very bright too. May not be all he hoped for but he has done OK.

In the anorak world you can't win. If people see you as a BB candidate its a reason for you not to do well in your new field however well you can do in it and if you move away from the celebrity world you are a failure. It just tells you what losers the people who write anorak are.
