I think the real reason Leo walked out is because he didn't agree with the definition of "celebrity" regarding this years housemates. He didn't want to class himself in the same league as the likes of Jade Goody. The whole underpants thing was a cover up (excuse the pun).
I'm glad they opted to leave his 'post-exit' remarks in the edit, I guess it hints that the producers weren't too happy about his departure. It also means that it's harder for him to go sulking to the press and complain about the show. Anyone who agrees to go on that show (or any) without doing some research is an idiot, or needs to sack their agent.
And it has guranteed he will get little out of appearing on the show. His whole ''Yeh but that was another side of me that doesn't exist anymore'' excuse is ridiculous and I hope the little man goes back to Oz, reminding us all of the pomposity and snobbery of celebrity.
leo didnt stick to his story - first last week he goes i hate the word celebrity and so on and then he starts to go on about celebrity meaning celebrated and that some of them are and some not.
Although Leo showed himself up big time, he did however "apologise to all Big Brother staff" during his interview with Davina on Friday...which I feel slightly took the edge off his 'spoilt brat' behaviour.

It did - until you saw Saturdays show, which pretty much made it obvious the interview was nothing but damage limitation!
how on earth can you blame the crowd for Davina not being able to formulate questions properly, or think on her feet, or make the ex-HMs feel at ease? She's a rubbish interviewer.
She is a rubbish interviewer yes, however the crowd ruin it more.
To be honest the housemates just used to blab on by themselves, she didn't need to say much. however now that the rabble just scream at anyone they get very nervous and you learn nothing
Dont think he should be allowed an interview or the money... he walked. end of
Surely he has earned his money more than some of the others still in the house due to the fact that he has given BB lots of press attention by walking?
He seems to be doing his round of interviews now in an obvious damage limitation exercise.
Not sure what happens - I know a couple of years ago when Germaine quit she returned for the final night and said to Davina she was only back so she got paid.
The charity issue complicates things too - even if Leo lost his fee, should his nominated charity lose their share?
Back to the interviews - thinking about the studio audience now, rather than the crowd, but I wonder what difference it makes to the evictee now the audience is just a random crowd let in from the cold, as opposed to BB1-BB4 when it was made up of friends and family of all the nominees.
As I've said before, I do miss the interaction Davina used to have with the HMs friends and family on eviction night - even if it does risk one of them becoming a housemates four years later!
