On bots there has never been a single guest ( or even an audience member ) who has said a negative thing about him
Emma and Rylan gush about him and the 'psychs' never go there other than to praise
Now we have three new housemates who, universally, 'love' Mark too
Can someone tell me what I am missing here please ? ... because, to me, he comes across as utterly determined to grab as much camera time as he can in his desperation to get 'a spot' on the highlights show

Also BOTS is biased and always has been. The presenters/panel/audience are almost always representative of a particular group of viewers. Plus half of the things people dislike about him are subjective and are seeing his actions in a certain light because of that dislike. To people who like Mark his diary room rants and moments in the house will be seen as genuine funny moments from a great character. People who dislike Mark will see it as fake and deliberate from a fabricated act. Having said all this I agree that BOTS (particularly emma) is too favoured towards him and should discuss his negative traits equally.
Thankyou jdayeh for such a considered and well thought through reply
If I made a list of my favourites Mark would be nowhere near the bottom ( he has made me laugh which is a rarity this year ) but I'm just not feeling the 'Mark love' which is being telegraphed so determindly by BB
Your post offers a very fair explanation though, and I appreciate it
;-)
I agree.
(Except that he hasn't made me laugh. But then, I can't ever remember a BB housemate being particularly funny, but that just shows how we all differ I suppose:kitty:)
Overacting & his voice especially when he starts screaming gives you a headache.
But he does provide light relief & i have chuckled a few times when he throws one of his diva strops.
The love for him is ott though
he is in no way perfect
The ranting about his make up and not being able to wash is just not funny to me. I think it's quite embarrassing for a grown man to be having tantrums like that.
When he leaves I won't be following his media "career" so for me I just enjoy him in the house.
I don't think I've seen him being malicious or bitchy. Like one of the psychs on BOTS said recently, he's one of the most level-headed people in there. And he's good value and actually adds something to the house - yes he's over the top but he's entertaining.
And I don't care if he's in there for his career.... that's what 90% of them are in there for.
.......for me he is OK.......but too contrived.......
He will win its already a forgone conclusion
The public aren't stupid and anyone that Big Brother aggressively praises and tries to influence us to vote for usually isn't voted winner. And that's how Sam won it last year for just saying "you make my winky expand" for the whole duration of the series.
He is, but I like him in spite of that. I think it's possible to be a wannabe with integrity, and yes the ACT is overdone and not funny but it's a beacon of light in a miserable house.
