Would evicted John McCririck benefit the show?

The thing is the British public have a strange knack at the beginning of the show of placing their loyalties in one/two camps and therefore evict the person who effectively is the biggest tosser.

What they should be doing is keep the most controversial/funny person in, making it better entertainment for all...but they'll probably vote john out.

Does anyone remember that Chris Eubank was voted out first in the first cbb? He definately was entertaining to watch, making it a stupid decision to make. Place ur loyalties toward the end of the contest, after you know people better!

Please vote him out. He is the spitting image of my ex-husband.......right down to the moody silences and watching it brings all the pain back.Believe me,for some posters,its not entertainment.

Chris Eubank should have won. Instead he lost because the people who vote are dense as hell.

I would personally throw out Caprice or Lisa first because they are both stupid idiotic lame people.

Keep him in! - if only for the Booby's sake.

They're always like that, for those of us who watch him regularly on C4 Racing... Maybe it's a conditioned posture from all that tictac-ing he does.

all this talk is entirely missing the point. HE'S GOING TO WALK. He certainly cannot redeem himself, or rejoin the group, he's left himself no options.

He hates not being in control, he detests everyone else in there for accepting their situation, he's refused to participate in the task, and they'll become even more humiliating...he has nowhere left to go...but to walk.

a vote to keep john in, is a wasted vote. i cannot see him sitting on that sofa, joining in again and taking part in big brother, BECAUSE HE'S MISSING HIS MUMMY.

Rubbish. There's loads of John fans who will keep him in.

John will only walk if he isn't evicted first. I could be wrong - but that's how I see it.

Will he be nominated - oh yes and probably by 7 people.

Will he be evicted - pretty sure.

Will it hurt the show - not if he's still keeping up the silent wounded soldier job.

he'll walk or get himself evicted. how can he rejoin the group after their many unsuccessful attempts at conciliation and support? after his repeated storming offs? what's he going to do? walk in there tomorrow morning and act like nothing's happened? i dont' think so. if he does remain it will be a moan-a-thon, with nobody and nothing good enough for him. he's a spoilt (old) brat.

It is assumed that he will definitely be nominated and I would agree that he will.
BUT what if quite a few of them assume that the others will nominate him anyway and try to demonstrate to the public how nice and fair they are by not nominating him, You never know

At this point, I'm coming round to think maybe he should.

The silent protest is getting very old very fast.

I don't understand why people (celebs and public) go on these programs and then act like they have been forced into it.

John doesnt have to be there, he can walk anytime. I mean fine, have a go at BB, but what's the point in sulking when it's only a gameshow he is gonna be on for less than 2 weeks?

I hope we don't get another HM in BB6 (like Ahmed and Jason) who wishes they could leave.

There is always this call of
"Keep him in he is funny and entertaining"
or
"Yes he is a total git that's why we should keep him in"

But what about someone like myself who simply does not like the bloke for his insults and does not find him at all funny, and I will not miss him when he goes?

Add to that, I do not get the childish thrill that some of you seem to get by watching others suffer by using petty insult against them - I like a bit of arguement but just name calling isn't very intellectly stimulating.

So go John go and see what we have left - if it's boring then it's boring; adding a petty insulter to that ain't going to fix that at all.

But then again, it may get interesting as they all have to reposition and can't use John as the butt of all anger.

The plot continues.........

That is true; no one can legally be kept a prisoner until they have been arrested for an arrestable offence.

When anyone goes over the roof, all they are up in arms about is health and safty - if they slip Endemol get sued as they are ment to be keeping them safe and feeding them fish heads
But the security guards can't throw you back in, in fact, as civilians they can't obstruct you in any way unless you are under arrest. but the you have to have done something criminal.

But in BB it has mostly always been abused as a threat "Do this or I'll go" or as a sympathy attempt.

After his attitude over the last couple of days he definately has to go. He was funny to watch when he was insulting, but moody = dull - and it's affecting the rest of the housemates.

Also, it was illustrated with Kitten that it's far better when tasks are done as they should be, not when they are rebelled against. If the housemates accept their tasks, they make them look fun and therefore viewers can comfortably laugh at them - although it was far more difficult to watch Germaine getting sick on the roundabout than Marco!

As for John walking - he won't. He needs the money, and walking would probably mean forfeiting it (it should!).

you're kidding... the tasks are always the dullest bits of the show, like "its a royal knockout" all over again and again..

we want more disruptive inmates.

It's interesting isn't it, that someone who spouts a load of sexist crap is 'hilarious', 'entertaining' and even 'a legend'. I wonder if the same words would be used had he been spouting racist or homophobic crap?

but there's something about john's sexist idioglossia (the rubbish he speaks) something about it doesn't ring true. it's like he's trying too hard to be this woman-luster, as if he's trying to prove THAT HE'S NOT A CLOSET GAY.

after all, public school, childless marriage, the big phallic cigars, the flamboyant dress sense..do you think there's something john isn't telling the world? something that might explain his emotional hair-trigger?

perhaps tomorrow morning john will enter the house wearing some of jackie's clothes..declaring...
