The ADWD chat was interesting. Contestants on TV talent shows often say "I gave up a lot to be on this show", but in Lee's case, it was true! No wonder he was so focussed and intense - he would have been jobless (with a mortgage to pay) if he'd been voted off!
He sounds excited about his new house, and about Chitty!
It will be interesting to see how Lofty is written out of Casualty.
