I think he is a nice guy and Stephen is not very nice to him at times. Seems to like belittling him.

Glad I'm not the only one to have noticed this. Daniel always seems to be sweet towards Stephen, so it's sad that he rarely seems to reciprocate the kindness. Of course, we don't have the full picture and their offscreen relationship might be great (some people just have an abrasive sense of humour) but it doesn't come across on TV. Worth noting that his ex-bf/former Gogglebox co-star, Chris, said as much when he left the show.

agreed. in particular, the moment a few weeks ago where he implied that his mother had made snide comments about daniel ordering (i think) champagne when they were out for brunch was particularly nasty. i also feel like he can't take it when daniel, rarely, tries to tease him back.
 
I like Ellie and Izzi. I thought Ellie seemed a bit distracted at times last night. Glad that things are improving with Nat.
Yeah shes obviously struggling to concentrate on it all but probably needs the money more than ever hasnt it been a strange time lately its like lots of tragic things are happening all the time dont know just seems like more so than ever 😢

Yeah wasn't he really abusive to him? I mean it looks like banter but who knows what goes on🤷

I looked up Chris, I gather he went through a very bad time overall and that Stephen was no help, to say the least.
I think Chris was better able to give Stephen digs right back, whereas Daniel mostly laughs and lets things pass by.

I agree with the comment above about Stephen being very insecure. I think the real person is well hidden apart from the jibes at whoever is on the couch with him.
And again, I must qualify the above by saying that of course we only see snippets of all of their lives. 😁
 
Daniel looks better here than in earlier photo on thread.
