I remember watching his reality show and he was going on a trip. He came across as such a lazy, spoiled bugger. He couldn't be arsed to do any packing, so got Claire to come over and do it all while he swanned around messing with his hair.
Anyone else remember the cringemaking scene (there
were a lot of them admittedly) when he was so excited about a trip he'd planned for Emily ? He was gurning to the camera, absolutely full of it - so excited because he was taking her on a trip to Kenya. This was in the early days of their relationship. He'd gone on and on and on about this surprise trip for most of the show. From what I remember the scene went something like this (and the cameraman was clearly loving Peter's reaction
)
At a table for two at a posh restaurant :
They've finished their meal and over coffee Pete decides to surprise Emily for her ?birthday?.
He announces with a big taaaahhh daaahhhh that they're going on a
big trip to - guess where????? Emily looks excited and Pete shouts, "KENYA !!!" "On safari !!!" Emily looks slightly nonplussed then says "Oh... lovely"
Pete starts stirring his coffee, staring at Emily whilst looking disappointed that she's not reacted properly.
He says "You don't seem very excited"
Emily replies "Oh I am, it sounds fun... but... well, you
know I've been..."
Dead silence.
Peter starts stirring his coffee so hard it starts to splosh out of the cup into the saucer. The camera zooms in slightly.
He just stares at her.
She giggles slightly and says, "You
must remember me telling you.... we
lived out in Kenya for a while when I was a child..."
Coffee is sploshing all over the saucer now and whilst still angrily stirring, Pete glances slightly behind and up at the camera to check it's still filming. Unfortunately it is and his eyes are absolutely dead (nothing new there) and soooo angry looking.
He murmurs something like..."I didn't... ummm I hadn't..."
Emily is now realising that when she's been telling him about her early life living in Kenya he hasn't listened to a word she's said and looks pretty annoyed herself.
Talk about cringe tv.
It was one of the best bits of tv I've ever seen, mainly because it showed in those few minutes what a passive aggressive, self centered, thick, bell end he really is. How on earth - when someone you claim to be in love with - tells you all about their life and says they've LIVED in Kenya for a while, can it slip your mind. There again, if it ain't about Peter he's not interested is he?
