Michael is really annoying, there is too much focus on him and he's already almost been busted by the copper. How long can this go on -he is barely credible and pretty pointless. Wouldn't the housemates be just as interesting left to their own devices without his meddling?

He is a terrible actor and a boring housemate. He's a complete waste of space and he's taking away from the other housemates who are actually good

dont worrie hes gone on friday.

[Marcus.]

is he

Well, to be fair the public left him out to dry with the nominations. He was getting on decently well with dexter and sallie, and then had to nominate them. Which does create drama....

Not sure if BB has gone about this whole 'mole' thing in the right way, but time will tell and he has potential. As for the character 'persona' he's taken on, I 'get' what he's trying to do, but think it's a poor choice...

Didn't Pam Spurr (psych and body expect woman) say on Bit on Psych that he was leaving on Friday.

The funny thing is, I suspect Michael would actually be MORE interesting if he wasn't the People's Puppet but a regular HM. He's obviously more interesting than say, Calum,twins and Daley plus he's articulate and smart which are two endangered qualities in the Desmond era BB.

I just don't understand centering the promotion of this series on this huge twist only to end it 8 days later. Granted, he's been sussed out by the cop but it appears to me the intention was always to pull him out after the first set of nominations. Seems that the whole thing was set up to for the express purpose of allowing the audience to do the first round of nominations, which from an entertainment point of view, is the last thing you want. A real head scratcher that.

I actually think Michael is a pace maker/ decoy to the 'real' mole. I think another one of the HM has a major secret and task and once Michael is gone this will kick in.

I am not keen on Michael or how this twist has been played out but I think,for me at any rate, it would have been better had they just got him to actually make the nominations himself rather than the public now.

BB messed up. They should have left him in to develop a personality then pushed him to do his dirty on his own. The great British public left him no chance to follow his own personality as he was doing things for them out of his own comfort circle. Whoever thought of this twist didn't think it out real well. Apart from that his own personality is on a oar with dishwater anyway.

I think BB is more to blame with the way things are going than Michael tbf, they are pushing it too much, constantly shouting him to the DR and he ends up spending ages in there at a time, they should have let him settle in, act more like a real housemate and gain everyone's trust before they started all these twists and tasks for him to carry out, it could have been amazing if they went about it the right way imo.

Big Brother are ruining him. I like him.
