He's gone in with his own agenda... that doesn't involve winning the show! That is exactly what the show should be about, so he is the viewers HM for me. He's doing exactly what we all shout and argue about on the forums for us!
And Leccy! You are so wrong in thinking you were alone loving Citizen Science, because he is my all time favorite HM! And I guess I see many similarities with him in Sam. I just wish I'd been forumming in that year though!
He's independent, quirky and funny. And reallllly annoying with it!
Then again, it could be that I love the way Sam is prepared to say all the things we have been saying on here - and he does it to people's faces. He has come out with some brilliant one-liners.
I don't think his insults are (usually) said with malice. I look at the intention behind Sam's words, not just what he actually says, and I don't see him as vicious or truly malicious. He is a total WUM, though. I much prefer a WUM like Sam to someone like Dave who can say "I love you, man" and then stab you in the back.
Sam and Josie had obviously clashed prior to entering the house, and that has continued on. I don't actually think Sam dislikes Josie half as much as Josie dislikes Sam.
He is playing a good game and he has stirred up a house that was becoming boring to the point of stagnation.
ben/freddie fan here too. agree with all yogi has said. they all thought they were sitting pretty, could stay under the duvet get them to final. ive always supported people who are the underdogs.
they are getting ataste of their own medicine and dont like it. to me some of them have bullied there way to the postion they are in today (especially the horrible monk man) i dont like what sam has said to josie about her weight, im a size 12/14 and it got me worried that i look that size.
they wont give sam a chance they just pounce on him as soon as he opens his mouth so he going to say the things he says to get attention. people out here must like him to hes 4/5th fav to win. As yogi says sam says all the things we have been saying on this forum for weeks, hes woke them all up and made them realise they int won it yet.
Sam knows the buttons to push, and with Josie it's her weight. If she didn't get wound up, he wouldn't do it. I wouldn't be surprised if Sam was Kris is Bliss from last year!
Joise gives as good as she gets, both to his face and behind his back. Sam isn't bothered by anything she says, which makes her get even more wound up.
The one who tells him he's out of order, for saying some of the disgusting things he says to people.
I agree, he is playing a blinder and I'd love to see him in the final.
