Right, I must leave you all for the mo. Thanks for the interesting debate! One thing is for sure, love him or hate him, Marcus does make very interesting viewing.
Yes he said that but it's not necessarily true though, In truth I doubt if he's had much relationship experience.quote:Originally posted by Scotty:quote:Originally posted by Comrade Ogilvy:quote:Originally posted by miss lippy:quote:Originally posted by Lister_of_Smeg:quote:Originally posted by miss lippy:quote:Originally posted by Comrade Ogilvy:quote:Originally posted by Jingo:
I like Marcus. I can't stand Noirin. However I'd never excuse him his behaviour towards her just because she's a tart.
What behaviour ?, falling for her ? I don't think he could help that.
I could imagine Marcus becoming obsessive and very controlling with any women he fancies. I think that his obsession with Noirin goes way beyond the norm. I don't think it has anything to do with being in the confines of the BB house either.
i think Marcus has distanced himself from her at the moment to get over her but she wont let him she still follows him even when he said he doesnt want to talk right now i think in the next few days he will make up with Siavash but ive got a feeling he wont makeup with Noirin not after all that has happend .
I think it would probably be better if Noirin left him alone. However I don't think that this will cure what is obviously a deep rooted jealousy he has with any man who he thinks will be of interest to Noirin. (Which basically means any man within her grasp!) As I said before, I think he will be like this with any woman he fancies.
BTW Does anyone know if he ever has had a proper relationship?
You do realise that is all speculation don't you ?, I personally couldn't care less about his relationship history but..
If he truly did have a history of being possesive, violent or whatever is assumed about him, don't you think the red top rags would be printing his "victims" stories ?
It's all nonsense.
I`m repeating this Comrade and I hope you read it this time...
In a conversation Marcus said that in RL he persues women the way does with Noirin.
He said he showers then with gifts and continually contacts them even when they say they don`t like it. He believes they are playing hard to get...
His words not mine....
For me, Marcus is both difficult to like and dislike. I find him entertaining as an HM, but somewhat ridiculous as a man.
I don't want him to be evicted because the show would fall flat on it's face without him. Yet his behaviour is puerile.
I don't know, it's a dilemma

Noirin certainly has not helped matters with Marcus. Giving him signals with one hand and taking them away with the other, but Marcus is just such a creep to boot! His foul mouthed remarks towards Dogface etc have been awful to watch. And when you think he is virtually old enough to be her father it makes it all the worse!
No, she hasn't.
Yeah he has been ridiculous in some of his interactions with women. But I bet he hasn't been around many women. I believe his claims that he has had loads of girls as much as I believe his assertions that he is a karate expert.. i.e. not at all.
He is older than Sophie.. but he is male..and what is more, emotionally, he isn't that much older.
He is inept.
He does make sash windows though doesn't he?
He probably presses the button on the machine that makes the sash windows...
LMAO!!!

And that`s probably why.
He didn`t say that he had had relationships, he said he persued them relentlessly.
Who would admit to that if it wasn`t true?

He is this years Mario for me.

But at the end of the day, I'm more concerned with how he is as a HM and I think he is a great HM for the reasons outlined in my OP.

I did'nt like him up until last week, my husband pointed out the comedy value of Marcus, which I feel guilty about a little, it's like mocking the afflicted, but he does make me want to tune in and see what he's up to next.
What is interesting to me.. and something else that might add to the theory that Marcus is a bullshiner and probably spends most evenings in his bedroom painting scale models of Dungeons and Dragons rather than skulking the clubs of London mithering women...
IF, he behaved in RL how he says he does (from what Scotty quoted) then surely there would be one 'victim' of his relentless flower sending and mithering selling their story. Admittedly I haven't been looking.. but I haven't seen any.

Yes exactly, I think he's enexperienced but that's the last thing he wants anyone to know.
Tbh... I think he's a virgin..

You don`t seem to have your listening ears on these days Comrade
Our conversation, it seems, is deemed pointless
On the rare occasion, I think he is right ... but he just spouts too much shite for my liking. Just doesn't ring true with me.
And I can't stand the way he acts like he's Noirins dad ...... I know for sure she's not done right by him by a long chalk ..... but even she is under the impression she can't do this , can't do that for fear of upsetting Marcus .... It's just bloody annoying.
I fear for any woman he has a relationship with ..... I bet he would be an absolute nightmare
.... Just my opinion, of course.

If it's true it's worrying.
If it's a lie, but he wants people to think it's the truth, then it's worrying.

Well I'm sorry you feel that way.
I suppose we can't agree on everything.
But (as has been pointed out) where are all the tabloid stories from his string of victims ?.
I think the truth is that in affairs of the heart he is inexperienced and doesn't want anyone to know that.
To be honest, I don't think many women would want to remember being pursued by Marcus.
They are probably sitting in a corner, rocking.

Marcus comes across as an only child with an old mother and no father figure in his life.

Tis funny you should say that because I was thinking he would be better off ditching this wooing malarkey and heading straight to mail order.

What difference does that make ?
I know, the Noirin stuff right ?, well there are worse things in this world than being an inexperienced 35 yr old man surely ?,
For example.. being Kris, Kenneth or Tom for starters.
The Noirin stuff is getting pretty old imo, hell, Noirin would have the most experienced of casanovas heads spinning.
quote:What difference does that make ?
Imo, he acts as if he's much younger is all ..... I never really thought about his age before .... but I am shocked to learn he is 35
35 and still trying to out do others with press ups
quote:Why all the Marcus hate ?
Because he is a knob head.
quote:he acts as if he's much younger is all .
and therein, I think, lies the answer..
he is 'emotionally' not a 35 year old man..
quote:Noirin would have the most experienced of casanovas heads spinning.
I doubt that very much. Headache maybe, spinning? I think not.
Well yes there is that side too him too, the bullshinequote:Originally posted by Poker Face:quote:What difference does that make ?

Personally me (sorry 
) I think it's great.

I don't like Noirin but its embarrassing watching Marcus punching above his weight... its like quasimodo chasing cameron diaz, the numpty

Who cares about any of that ?
Marcus is the only one in there that plays by his own rules, all the rest (even the others I like) are playing by the book.
quote:he is 'emotionally' not a 35 year old man..
Indeed.
Tom is only 27 .... but what a difference between the two.

I suspect that's because Tom has some romantic interaction with women and got laid.
He said to Marcus that if a woman knocks you back you just take it on the chin and move on.. Marcus' face was like 'do not compute... do not compute'.
I'm telling ya if I could find a bookies that was running one.. I'd lay a bet that Marcus has had very little female interaction and is a virgin.

Yes, Toms attitude to women was truly disgusting.
