Is Anthony a WORTHY favourite to win BB6?

He is one of the housemates that I wouldn't mind winning Big Brother. I don't know about 'deserving' to win it but how many of the other HM's 'deserve' to win it this year??

He seems a decent guy and isn't as much of a performing seal as a lot of the other contestants.

Sure, there are reasons people could say why he shouldn't win - but I don't consider him to be too bad a guy at all.

EDIT: Just to point out that to say he is the biggest favourite ever at this stage is untrue - Alex was odds on (8/13) by week 5 in BB3.

Because he is dull, not very bright, extremely uninteresting...

Has Anthony got any past crimes that would prevent him from winning?

Wasn't is Anthony that threw the sh*tty water around the kitchen?

It is interesting he was BOOED coming INTO the house.I guess that has been forgiven/forgotten.

Had to laugh when he decided that the reason for the booing was because he was being "hurried" into the house.

Talk about deluded.

1 Tweedle gone 2 to go Anthony wont win.
Science is the worthy winner.

Wasnt he booed because he was being a show off. A pretty boy with a big head? Arrogance isnt an endearing quality then, so isnt this the same guy or has he suddenly lost his arrogance?

I still cannot see Anthony as the winner, he has some bad history of theft in association with Max, the dirty water incident, unprotected sex in the pool, racist remarks etc

He treats Craig like a dog, but now I see that C4 have recognised that and have reversed the roles.

either of these two to win?

Anthony is getting away with it by playing the straight man to Craig,if you notice Anthony rarely gives an opinion and sits on the fence,he is slipping through the radar by almost contributing to affairs but actually doing f**ck all and will probably win the game,i cannot stomach the man.

He can't give an opinion, because he has none.
He can just about function at Homer Simpson level (eat/sleep/drink/f***) never mind any actual "thinking".

Yeuch! I wish you hadn't reminded me of that

P.S. I wouldn't vote for him to win - I still prefer Science.

His dinner with BB was stultifyingly boring - without exception any other HM still in there would have produced a wittier and funnier and more entertaining little piece on their own. Anthony's attempts at novelty included getting pissed, taking his shirt off because he thinks we think he is beautiful and repeating endless one word cliches like 'classic'. What you saw were the dazzling highlights of a 90 minute sole appearance on camera - golden moments of BB6? Er no. Classic? Never.

He has never played a leading role in the house except when it came to sleazy and potentially unsafe sex in the pool. His role was to back up Max and Saskia in every unfair act they got up to and to lie lazily around with Craig telling him to f*** off yet so desperate to shore up his vote in the house that he panders to Craig's misguided and hilarious attempts to form a love bond. Craig is pathetic and embarrassing but he totally dominates in that relationship, as does Makosi with Ant and indeed everyone else. They run rings round him.

People really only like him because 'he speaks with a Geordie accent' or 'he doesn't bitch or argue' - which he does, he is just not as good at it as the others as he struggles to form any sentence. Not good enough, I'm afraid.”

Well said. I opened an 'I Hate Anthony's Guts' last week and I wish I had waited until now! Why can't people really see how sh*t he is?

Yes, after reading the last few posts I have to agree he is rubbish

Never liked him and the more I watch the more I dislike him.

I witnessed that scene and it was not in the pool, both boys were sprawled on the sofa.

Craig - You're not a pretty boy

Ant - I'm text book

Craig - I'm a pretty boy, I've got pretty eyes....

Ant - Do you think so?

Craig - Ant, what are you doing with nail polish on?

Anthony - Have you got any nail varnish remover Craig?

Craig - You should scrape it off, that's what I did.

Honestly, Anthoneeee!!!!

Most young girls it seems have jumped on the Science bandwagon like a bunch of sheep.

Anthony will get way more votes from average viewers,
He seems like a regular decent enough guy, who irritates the least number of people

Depends on whether that can outweigh the votes of an obsessive crowd voting multiple times each..

And of course the bookies odds mean nothing in the end, it all depends on the editing.

Isnt that just the problem. BB winners are not supposed to be just "average". Nice is ok, but average?

Of course he isn't. He's bland beyond belief.
