No one is indefensible.
1. There was an element of piss-take in his vain VT: "I need a woman with a car so she can drive me to Asda..."
2. He was nasty at times to Freddie, but it wasn't all one way. Freddie badgered him so often to tell him why he didn't like him that even some of Freddie's fans began to say it was bound to irritate him further. And Freddie kept saying that Kris/ Sophie's relationship was fake, which was bound to annoy both of them. (I don't think it was fake, but I do think they were both aware of its possible market value).
3. Sophie did a bit of a headf**k on him. She told Noirin that they had had sex in the house then went ballistic when he refused to deny that they had had sex outside the house. I think he was in a difficult situation at the time, not knowing how she wanted to play things; he didn't really deserve her savaging of him later, sneering at his small penis and lack of manhood; and her excuse for telling Noirin that they had had sex was weak: "I didn't think people would take it seriously and I didn't think it would be a big deal."
4. There was something a bit depressing about the way so many housemates dropped him completely afterwards once they realized that he was unpopular and not a social asset. I remember the final BBLB with only Lisa even acknowledging his existence; she went on to invite him to a party, along with a couple of the others, but on the whole he seems to have been treated as a non person in a rather Stalinist way.
5. The Kris
mint banter thread is one of my all time favourites...
