“Marco, sorry to screw up, c’est la vie"Lingered in the living quarters after Jim's exit, Adele came across his parting gesture: The goodbye letter.
Heading into the garden, she read it out, word for word, as the stunned celebs sat in silence:
“Hi you lot, if you’re reading this your lives have just improved – I’ve gone," it began.
“Sorry I seem to p**s certain of you/most of you off, but what you have to realise is, is everybody has an opinion that means something to them. Even old c**** like me.
“Brian I didn’t mean to upset you and I never referred to you as a ‘shirt-lifter’ and you know that, and I certainly didn’t intend to bully you. Quite the reverse.
“I tried to be pally, but in your mind you thought me intimidating and a bully. In my mind I was being friendly, but then I see our minds are so much different.
“Girls what can I say? Nothing.
“Anneka, good luck and keep cool.
“Barry, I’ll never forget that walk, and as for ‘issues’, you’re right, but they (you) usually are, champ. But my issues are formed from opinions, we can’t all be issue-free.
“Paul, next time I see you I’ll have the sole!!
“Marco, sorry to screw up, c’est la vie. Thanks for the burns, see you around boss and thank the team.
“PS – Brian G.A.Y means Good as You and you’re as good as any.”
