Rula and George have called Michael "obsessive-compulsive" and "scarred."
During a reconciliatory conversation earlier this evening, the pair began to discuss Michael's behaviour within the house, which Rula felt had begun to "grate." George agreed, saying that Michael was an egotist, who "had a fantastic ego that's been shattered...now he's trying to rebuild it. One of the characteristics of the egotist is the more they think the less they listen."
Rula added that she had noticed Michael's tendency to go "stir-crazy" whenever he was unable to be doing something productive.
George called him "obsessive-compulsive" about the kitchen. "The last thing I saw doing my rounds there was him rearranging the glasses," he explained. "That's OCD."
"It's all to do with what's happened to him, the shattering of his career into a thousand pieces, the hunting of the man from his country," he added. "I'm sure it's left deep scars, and that's what we're seeing. I'm sure when he goes into the diary room he breaks down. I'm sure if he has been breaking down in the diary room that's what we've been shown... and I'm sure that's been a major story of the show - the gutter press baying for his blood, others being sympathetic for his rehabilitation."
