McCririck: Lucy 'bright but dull'

John McCririck has passed judgment on this year's celebrity housemates, branding Ulrika "selfish" and first evictee Lucy "dull".

The former housemate said he was unimpressed by Lucy’s tears after Coolio's relentless rapping and shouting. "All women cry, they all have their blubbing sessions," he told Absolute Radio. "She's weeping and wailing as women do.

"She’s a bright bird but she’s just so dull. That’s the thing, she doesn’t have a spark of personality, she drones on."

John, who upset his fellow housemates with his chauvinist views during his time in the house, conceded: "Tremendous chest she's got of course, and they're natural."

He also commented on Ulrika’s personal life and spoke of her four children by four different men, saying: "4x4 Ulrika, they call her.

"The whole thing about her is that you always feel a sanctimonious selfishness."
