Exactly the same here. Hated him in BBUSA, but so far loving him in BBUK

He was awful on BBUSA-one of my least favourites ever and that is saying something. He has, however, been okay so far.

I had never heard of him & thought on launch night that he was going to be like Perez who I loathed with a passion. But Frankie has been good humoured and entertaining so far I really like him & wouldn't mind if he won (I reserve the right to change my opinion as the series continues ). So no, he hasn't disappointed me, I am pleasantly suprised.

Obviously I know who his sister is, but had no idea who he was. I'm pleasantly surprised how much I like him, with the other overbearing housemates he's been the much needed comic relief.

Far from it. I didn't know a thing about him before this. I was horrified when I got him in the sweep after all I'd heard about him but so far he's been a pleasant surprise. Judging him solely on how he's been in the house, I actually like him!

He's basically the Theresa May of this series. Hanging back waiting for the conflict to die down, then when the leadership from the other cliques crumbles he'll jump in and take over.

Hes my current Fav....usually I hate the sceptics but out of all of them he seems the nicest, well so far.. Rickys internet man sausage escapades etc rule him out so its just the seemingly nice attention seeker left.

No doubt come Monday I will of changed my mind.

Im fickle me.

he's awful

he got it right in that musical number "I'm wet"

in fact, Carly Simon is re-writing her famous hit about him, called "you're so wet"

I really like him now - he grows on me more each show - there aren't many likeable characters in the house and he's like a breath of fresh air. He is no Perez - there is only one Perez and it would hae been nigh on impossible for him to win - I think Frankie could though.”

The glitter put me off on the opening night.But found myself looking forward to the light-hearted moments that come from him.He seems genuinely talented in lots of ways.He has the ability to organise without taking all the limelight.
He seems to relish tasks and the only time he has made a critical look was over the sketch between Saira and James where Bear and Lewis heckled and him and Aubrey looked at each other and mounted that they felt uncomfortable!
He's bright and enthusiastic and so far look forward to seeing more of him.

What Penny says....

Not like me to one of the American's to win but.... Go Frankie...

Having said that I think the winner will be Sam..... I'll be Happy with that also....

He's got a list of shows he's been in which is quite impressive in his own right.Also lots that he's produced as well.
Maybe not as famous as his half sister but in theatre musicals etc he would count as a true celebrity over here .Also well known for charity work.
Not sure how much these people get paid to be in the house but he certainly got a lump sum for coming 5th in the American version because he gave at least half to charity.
Was interested enough to find out.
Also seems to be liked in the house.

I think he is playing it safe on purpose. He knows that he wont have many fans over here so his most secure way to stay is not to annoy anyone. I still think he has the potential to turn volatile given what people have said he was like on the US version. I thought Frankie and Bear would clash alot more.

Loved the way he handled him there but how on earth are they managing to restrain themselves from thumping him one

Disappointed? More the complete opposite. I loathed him before he entered (I watched him on BBUS) but he's surprisingly grown on me. I'm not sure if I *like* him but I like him more than most the others, if that makes sense (though, that's not saying much).

He's just having fun and not taking anything too seriously, for now.

I'm addicted to caffeine, so I'd be fuming if I was in the house with Bear and he did that for NO reason. What an idiot.

No. I had never heard of him, so I had no expectations. I really can't stand him, though. He's 'on' all the time, which I find intensely irritating. I sincerely hope we don't see more of him.

I felt the same about him on BBUSA, but he is coming across much better in our house. I think maybe it's because he was all happy, clappy show off in the USA house and that isn't what the show is about - you want to watch game talk and strategy, but in this house we want entertainers, so I think he will do well.

No not disappointed at all, I loved him on BB US and loving him even more on BB UK because it is all about the entertainment and he can bring it.
Frankie is being himself, don't doubt it when you see him throw glitter and prance about this is a Tuesday for Frankie. Perez was trying to be controversial day and night, Frankie is being Frankie with a side order of letting people know who to nominate *wink*

Some may find throwing glitter and prancing about entertaining.
Personally i dont - i find it tedious and his whole tinsel-boy act nauseating.

I was expecting to not like him but I do. BB does not have go be showmances, aggression etc. Sometimes niggly bickering is about the mess, snoring, borrowing things is actually more entertaining and intelligent conversations more interesting. The producers need to give the reality tv "stars" a swerve in my opinion

Fair nuf horses for courses, just saying it isn't really an act it is just how he expresses himself, he is being real in that way that flamboyant people make everyday a caberet!

I find him a breathe of fresh air is a house that thinks being controversial means being loud, mouthy and a troll.
