you must agree he does go on a bit, uses 200 words whe 10 would do !!!!

Even without his 'voice' and the dreary, cliched, ghastly, repetitive RTV stuff that comes out of it, he will still have his calculated cheesy grin, his 'sincere' (au Bob Monkhouse) to camera earnest pout, and his bloody FACE.

But losing his voice would help a lot, have to say.

Lost voice and blocked tear ducts one can only hope

awww, he can be quite sweet if repetitive. Yapping endlessly in front of judges used to be a bad think to do but Tess seems to want them to wax lyrical. But his yapping and tears can have me wanting to just wrap him up in cotton wool and eject him into outer space. I mean that in a nice way.

I find his psychopath's grin very unnerving.

Goodness, that guy at least looks a bit interesting.

And much more genuine, but the smiles are similar.

Lose his voice and the ability to squeeze water from his eyes would be appreciated .

I did laugh when I saw the title of this thread.

I think this thread is very mean.

Poor Mark.

I think it started off good natured and in good fun. It kinda descended a bit later on.

Mark reminds me of a professional representing a celeb being investigated by the taxman. "I don't know why they keep digging, there's nothing to find!"
He said it that often, the professional dropped him.
You can protest too much.

Unfortunately, Mark brings out the worst in some characters in here, which is just another reason why I would love to see him win.

I think that some of them would need counselling.

I'm an 'umble hunderdog wot's nevva dahnced befaww in me life and nah I'wl be able to twurl me nans arahnd when I gets wedded to me luvverly Mee-shell who's I loves saa much (sob, sob).

That is how it's going to go on Saturday, isn't it?

Yeah.

Tear every bit about the guy apart, people!

haha, the thread title made me laugh!!

Whilst I am totally over being in awe of Mark's journey and his cheesiness I do quite like the lad.......would expect him to be first out tho!!

I don't get the Mark hatred. Ok he's a bit OTT and earnest and could use 10 words instead of 100 but he's clearly loving it and no doubt is the most improved finalist left since week one. I thought he would be dire and being an essex girl myself expected to bury my head in my cushion in embarrassment but I've warmed to him. Frankies and essex girl too but I'll be voting for the boys this year though expect Caroline to win.

Mark is quite nice, actually. I just think that he is playing the whole underdog thing, a bit much.

It's as much the producers as him really, they have all been given a storyline in some form.

That's true. A couple of times, they have used the romance angle with Simon and Kristina for the Salsa and Waltz VTs.

Where is your sense of humour? it is not mean it is mearly saying he goes on a bit.

I think so too, but always get the odd one going OTT. A bit rum considering in this case seeing as that is what Mark is being accused of.

They certainly are!
