***The Frankie Firetruck to making Grandes***

so far so good imo as he's been entertaining but not a pain.

hard for yanks to do well though isnt it?

i'm not on but agree he seems a more creditable winner than many of the others. good luck.

I'm not so sure it is any more, Gary Busey winner, Austin Armacost 2nd.

If this were a horse racing handicap I would say that being American is like a horse having a 3lb penalty, yes makes it slightly harder but if it's good enough it will still win!

Many of the 'rules' for who wins BB and CBB has changed since the move to channel 5.

gets respect due to lack of decent competition
reduced my red now heavy has blown up

Heavy was only ever a trading option rally Army.

I backed at 22 and sold at 15 and was really happy with that business even though he touched 12.

He's just a big gormless lump, no harm in him but no brains or subtlety either and his appearance alone will put off many voters.

spot on HF
my mistake was not taking any profit

HF driving a train! Been a while, hasn`t it?
Frankie hasn`t put a foot wrong, likeable, funny, and entertaining; one of my few decent greens.
Good lick, HF!

Our 14th train!!!

I think Frankie is going to be kept in the house until the final by fans of his sister who will hope to see or hear from her on BOTS. Could be first out in the VTW.

A ramp of the kittens standards
You have graduated BB

Sorry, but I have to correct a typo I`ve just spotted; `Good lick` should, of course, be `good luck`. Don`t want any misunderstandings over perceived ****-eroticism!

I'm posting with personal knowledge as I am a major Ariana fan.

FFS! h0m0-eroticism!

Don't be scared to lick whoever you want, tim. The EU can not tell us what to do any more.

Sorry HF, I was referring to BB 3rd Cousin twice removed post about Frankie's sisters fans keeping him in the house in case she talked to bots, it reminded me of The Kittens post from IAC in 2012, about Eric Bristow being a county class swimmer in his youth, and that would boost his chances.

It wasn't Kittens post it was Polkoi's
It wasn't about Bristow it was about Charley Uchea
It wasn't Iac it was Big Brother
It wasn't 2012 it was 2007

Other than that you're spot on

...and I hadn't posted anything about Frankie, or his sister, being a swimmer .

bear your filing system is a disgrace, get your dossiers in order

Plus I know you tweeted me at 2.42 this morning and deleted it

Mach's the new army

I was trying to link something that did not go, so I gave up bear
nothing malicious

LIAR

I know it was a death threat

Can every one just calm the feck down.

...I didn't even post that Frankie or his sister played darts.

but he is a county class swimmer?

For anyone who doesn`t know the story, (it was nine years ago, so memory might have the details wrong);

BB announced there was to be some kind of swimming task, which might have involved immunity. Somebody posted that nightmarish and huge-priced  Charlie had been a `county class swimmer` Her price plummeted by about 80%. Then, it turned out, she was no swimmer at all, perhaps still before the task? Cue the inevitable drift back towards pre-ramp prices. Forum legend has always said it was The Kitten but I posted that once, only to be corrected by bear. Kitten was the one who`s posts I remember; he ran with it for sure, but it`s entirely possible someone else had posted it first, and then stood back.

Either way, having been lurking for a couple of years, it was this episode which turned me into a poster. I happened to be in front of my computer when it all started and managed to back her, and was also here as the truth became known, and managed to lay her; a most exciting afternoon, one that changed my life.  So, you can all blame kitten for every bit of boll0x I`ve posted ever since!

The funny thing there is someone's price plummeting 80% just because of the possibility of being immune I assume for a week.

Details may be sketchy, and Wiki hasn`t helped. That`s the gist of it, though.

got him green behind ricky and sam now
only one of these can win
simples

This guy is an incidental American. Do people think Ariana fans are going to spend money to vote for her brother on UK CBB? That’s never happened before with hm’s connected to, or family of, someone really famous. I’ve just looked through her twitter. Didn’t see any mention of him or even a retweet of his.

Who do you prefer? Bear or Twink?

View Poll Results: Who do you prefer?
Bear        9    15.25%
Twink (Frankie)        50    84.75%

Bear isn't winning any polls army, that is obvious.

not too all obviously, otherwise he'd be 100/1

He's not 100/1 because people understand how a VTS works.

wait for the eviction

we do, the mugs don't

The baddest villain / wind up merchant ever

Tom, thanks for taking time to school the village idiot in the ways of BB, you will get your reward come foty prize giving time

I find his playing direct to camera without adding anything to the plot a bit wearing but he is not without a chance I guess in a rapidly weakening field

I wasn't sure if franke was the one, now I know Bails finds him wearing, I know he is the one

dead wood all over the top of the table, this fire truck will be driving over them walking dead style

trading at new lows now
I don't think Frankie is a natural winner of this, but he is getting involved and provides some entertainment
I think a decent uk housemate could pass him easily, I just don't see any in the house

Taking on Bear was a big move after seemingly fawning over him yesterday after he nommed him for permanent eviction.

he tackled him with dignity and never fell to Bears level, undoubtably a stayer, very unlikely to do something to ruin his chances as he seems very even tempered.

Still the value at his current price as at half the price is someone we only see for 1 minute every other night and 45 seconds of that is him just saying 'bruv'!

Frankie is looking less likely to confront the squad, he is involved and may gets some votes for being the nicest one in there, Mark Owen won by just being nice.
Whale, Sam and ricky are moaning all the time.
Katie has been a wet fish.
Renee is bitter and her hate for Chloe, as chloe cries won't play great.
It getting to be a small list of runners that are not in the squad that are showing positive traits.

mach, the name you`re looking for is `Aubrey`.

Tim, I didn't mention Aubrey because the edit does not mention her either

Aubrey: Hi I'm Aubrey

Gary Busey: Orgy?

Bear going for frankie in a unjustified way plays frankie back into it
if bear keep going for him it's only good news

http://bigbrother.channel5.com/bear-takes-two-faced-frankie-day-16

Frankie backed down instantly like one of those moles in the "splat-a-mole" arcade hammer games! (he could of reasonably said "why should I have have chosen Chloe over Marnie" )

*****  "why should I have have chosen TO SAVE Chloe over Marnie"

he went over and tickled him, thats playing bear at his own game, not getting upset, but taking the p1ss out of bear

Frankie started "liking" Bear the first time Bear was saved by the public. He was much closer to Chloe than Marnie but stuck the knife in her sheep-like following what the majority wanted. He's slimy and this was all pointed out by someone on the BOTS panel.

Bear was actually justified bringing it up and calm about it.

well played laying the snake H
a better move, i nearly layed that 6.80 myself
bear taking him down and showing him for the two faced yank he is
americans need to play it perfect to win this side of the pond

he can't beat ricky or sam so a pointless green

not entirely sure why this people pleasing yank is still single figures, apart from prancing about all the time
he ooozes slime from group to group

Winning this poll may be influencing people:
http://www.bbspy.co.uk/cbb18/popularity-poll/round-3

Oops, this is the current one. Still a huge lead for him.
http://www.bbspy.co.uk/cbb18/popularity-poll/round-4

yes H
the yanks are doing well on fansite polls, they always have done
but fall well short with the public

frankie admitting in latest vid, that he sits on the fence

They don't care about Frankie. He had his best moment on the LF last night impersonating someone with a frozen plastic surgery face. Made me laugh more than anything else this series, so very surprised they didn't slip it into the edit.

Was a little bit poor taste, H. Looked like he was imitating someone who had a stroke.

Yes those that had a stroke wouldn't be laughing

I thought it was funny, in the spirit intended. Henry`s right, quite telling they didn`t show even 10 seconds of it.

Never once thought of stroke. Neither did the house, who all laughed. The first thing he said was "Do you think I look natural? I've never once had work done." And then he continued talking about plastic surgery.

The reason Frankie is doing so well in the BBSpy poll.

... but his fans are all American and are prevented from voting in BB even if they tried.

Good spot H

Looks too much like Woody Woodpecker to win anyway.

Frankie making a fight of it
Frankie has been funny on the live feed but got fecked in the edit

Frankie gets a video message from his sister

It feels a little like fool's gold but I've backed Frankie more at the big prices, he is one of the few that are making a effort to be fun in the house.

Frankie is probably up this week, if I had to choose for him to be up or not I would choose up, better to be a central figure in the last week.
I can't be backing ricky and bear at the prices, Taking them on with Frankie is my solution to one of the hardest puzzles RTV has thrown at us.

sometimes he is funny but tptb dont always show his best moments.

on the other hand, him and aubrey are as fake as chloe's t1ts.

surely it would need a dramatic change of direction from the producers for him to stand a chance.

with so little time left i wonder how many times a winner has emerged who is so far back in the market at this stage????
