I seem to remember you were keen on Rex last year?
Two peas out of the same pod imho. Both khoonts. |

Wrong Kitten, I hated Rex, thought he was a psycho, always critised him on this forum, never backed him and laid him to max red.
Someone who was much more similar to Ben was Freddy. I also laid him because I detected a petulance and even slight nastiness that fortunately came out more obviously later. But I always thought that I had been too risky (ie I was lucky) because he was basically a nice character who, if he'd been more mature (as Ben seems to be so far), would have won easily. |

Rumour has it he has a PA who has already been complaining about his treatment/portrayal.

Fair play Henry.
I still maintain that when it comes down to the wire, the GBP will never vote for a rich person to win BB. £100K should go to someone who would appreciate it. Just my thoughts. |

20 now Henry and couldn't agree more with your assessment so far. Guy seems quite intelligent and gentle. I don't think the 100k prize money would influence the public vote for the winner. Public are now clued up enough to know that it's just a token gesture from Channel 4 and the real money will come from the work the winner gets after the show.

Yeah I can picture the final 2 now - Legless War Hero v Posh Toff.
How would you price that? |
|
By:
longer odds available in Top Man market on the HS atm, than in the Winner market on here.

I disagree that he is similar to Freddy though. Freddy was pretty inept socially and a bit of a bumbling fool, whereas Ben is extremely confident and self assured more along the lines of Derek Laud (but without the b!tchiness so far), and Raefe from The Apprentice. In fact, Ben and Raefe are good friends, and Ben appeared on CDWM when Raefe was on it. Ben has done quite a bit of TV actually.

By:
It’s all relative – he’s similar enough for at least some comparisons – similar in education, intelligence, background, class, attitudes, voice – and therefore public perception.
They both stood apart from the group because of their backgrounds. |
|
By:
These well mannered types often do well. Still, he's a miserable git, up his own ass, already done a lot of television work, and has a face like a horse.

He is likely to be independent of any in-group, but that doesn't mean they will nominate him if he remains to be inoffensive, and as it goes on people within a group start nominating each other quite easily even with remaining alternatives. |

By:
He seems fairly popular from what i've seen.
The only 2 who have said anything against him are beyonce and govan. |
|
By:
i took him to medium green last nite, never win imo but quite capable of hitting single digits where i would gladly red back out.

By:
henry VIII Ben is def going to be up he can survive against quite a few but will go in the first third of BB
noms based on class war for ben - steve, nathan, corin, rachael, and dave + possibly john james |

By:
We’ll see mach, I think he’ll be perceived by housemates and public as a nice chap and last a good while.
But it’s early days and the best-laid plans of mice and men… |
|
By:
I suspect he will be popular because he so obviously shouldn't be. People like using this show to prove they don't have any of these prejudices.
