* TookALevelInJerkass: Starts off as pretty normal and more sensitive than the other housemates, but descends into playing multiple girls at once after his change in identity.
* WillTheyOrWontThey: With Josie, until TheyDo in the second season finale.



* AmbiguouslyBi: Has demonstrated attraction to other men, especially Kingsley and Javier (the latter, who even comments on how much JP compliments his body).
* BrokenPedestal: Averted; though he worships his late father (especially since he didn't get a chance to say goodbye to him before his death), Vod finds a series of letters from his father to his illicit lover, and burns them before JP can read them.



* FirstGirlWins: [[spoiler:He hooks up with Josie multiple times in the first season. After a long period of being JustFriends, they end the series as a couple.]]
* HiddenDepths: Can be insecure and eager to please and fit in, though the fact that he's not a true JerkAss like his posh "friends" attracts some girls to him.



* LadykillerInLove: For all of his gusto, he does genuinely fall for a few girls over the course of the series. [[spoiler:Especially Josie, who ends up being half of the OfficialCouple with him.]]



* RichInDollarsPoorInSense: Does a lot of stupid things, usually to impress his JerkAss "friends."



* EasilyForgiven: Gets away with a lot.



* TheLadette

to:

* TheLadetteTheLadette: Crass, vulgar, masculine, and sex-obsessed. Her intentional GirlinessUpgrade to impress a man she likes makes her housemates appropriately shocked.



* MayDecemberRomance: With Tony Shales.



* BrutalHonesty: Not afraid to dispense it.



* FunnyForeigner: Averted. She's probably the most serious character on the show.



* NoSenseOfHumor




to:

* TheTeetotaler: Doesn't drink, much to the shock of the other housemates, who admit they need alcohol to do just about anything slightly risky.


Added DiffLines:

* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold


Added DiffLines:

* MayDecemberRomance: Old enough to be Oregon's father, as evidenced by the fact that she dates his ''son.''
* SexWithTheEx: Does manage to hook up with Oregon even after their breakup.
* StalkerWithACrush: Won't leave Oregon alone after they break up.

* ChivalrousPervert: So crude and horny that he often doodles extremely detailed cocks on any kind of flat surface, but doesn't take advantage of women, and only ever sleeps with those he has some kind of bond with.



* RichIdiotWithNoDayJob: His posh family means he can routinely hire barges or buy expensive items for the house. Come series 4, his reckless spending habits force his older brother to "turn off the money pipe" as incentive for him to find a post-university job.



* NiceHat: Vod has several

to:

* HiddenDepths: Often accused of being flippant towards her education and not caring about anyone else. In reality, as she reveals to Josie and Oregon in series 4, she worked incredibly hard to get into university (doing night courses on top of several menial jobs) and cares about doing well.
** While not the most academic person, she is good enough to get a 2:1 as her final grade; a degree mark from a British university is determined by how well the student does over their final two years. Not that surprising since English Literature is all about backing up opinions, which Vod is very, ''very'' good at.
* NiceHat: Vod has severalseveral.



* ScholarshipStudent: Her "RAF scam"

to:

* ScholarshipStudent: Her "RAF scam"scam"; her father is a member, and she's funding her studies through an officer bursary.


Added DiffLines:

* ZeroPercentApprovalRating: [[spoiler:As president of the Student Union. Cutting the funding for the wheelchair rugby team to start a poetry prize in her name, then cutting from everywhere else to cover up her mistakes, leads to a vote of no confidence from the student body, leading to her impeachment.]]
