The sad conclusion I draw from this is that, far from being a genuine autobiography, it is a money making stunt cooked up by a publicist and a publisher.I rest my case thanks maringo x
Izzy is right, as is kirstie.; Perfect Pete was little more than a well planned out role he played for the purpose of the show. After several fail attempts, he finally got into the house on the basis of a gimmick, with a well thought out character part to play. Plus, if all else failed, he always had a hook to capture the public sympathy vote.
I see no problem using a tactict, its the game after all but he took it to another level of amateur dramatics. More subtle than Nikki's OTT nonsense granted, but a role playing exercise none the less.
I actually liked Pete a lot right a the very beginning and often found some of his diary room antics entertaining. I even enjoyed his lip-lock with Aisleyne enormously. (In retrospect I thing it was probably the most genuine physical reaction to anyone that we saw from him in the house!). However, as time passed he just started to irritate me with his OTT attention seeking sulks. His ridiculous 'vision' of winning story was the nail in the coffin even before the Nikki reunion he'd worn out my patience with him.
Pete's not a horror like Nikki or Grace but in effect he built his persona around his disability. Sadly that's about all it was, a persona. We never got to see who he actually is and the reality is more than likely a great deal less pleasant, less talented and far less interesting than BB and his agent would have us believe. Either way, I sooo don't care as long as he isn't spreading rubbish about Ais and doesn't disrespect the truest best friend he made in the house.
I won't be buying or reading the book fank hoo!
its ammusing yes..but only for a short time! 
Check out his songs Maria on the Youtubes I found today on Digispy. It is in the Other Housemate contents list. I dont think his music is going to get very far. He would have done better to have supported the Tourettes Charity with the Fame he had on coming out of the BB house. He would have been a respected and honoured citizen for that kind of dedication had he done so. However, these days it is a selfish route but I feel Pete may live to regret not supporting the Tourettes Association and bringing it firmly into the spotlight as of course most of his journey in the house was based on those principals for being there. His mother seconded that also. It has made both of them fall from grace in my eyes as it should have been their first focus.
I somehow think Pete is not a bright boy nomatter what colour he dyes his hair.
