I'm wondering this as it seems like such an easy, dream-come-true way for the XF to get more headlines. By bringing in someone like Frankie who was obviously going to be trouble, then egging him on only to finally axe him seems a bit too much like it could have been calculated from the beginning.

After all, hasn't only one other person ever been axed from the Lives in the history of the show, that Emily girl who got found out for being involved in happy slapping?

This stuff with Frankie just seems a bit "lucky" in terms of how much exposure it's given the XF during a failing season, and I wouldn't put anything past the producers/PR teams.

wouldnt surprise me...first thought that came to my head!

I mean didnt he have minders?

A bit of a cupid stunt if you ask me.
