Marcus is not really that arrogant.

[brian3]

He is just having a laugh. Cant understand why more people can't see that.

[BBmassive]

I cannot see it

[Jezzy]

Hear hear. He's about the only one of them confident to send himself up. He really doesn't give a ****; he's having fun.

[rayheartbliss]

i hope thats just it

[Deliverance]

I see it. He is a v.intelligent fella, a great HM.

He takes the pi$$ constantly and doesnt take take himself or the BB house seriously but the people wanting to post hate about him just cant see the real reason he is doing it, he is having a laugh in there and is without doubt the biggest character in there this year.
I would rather watch marcus than dullards like most in the house.
They are flying under the radar afraid to be nominated and evicted, marcus isnt bothered.
He is class :thumbs:

[Shasown]

When he returns to training his arrogance will once again be curbed, if need be I will break out the kendo sticks again.

[Jezzy]

Like most ppl that think Facebook means they have friends. So what? I think he's *******ing funny.

Well... I don't feel like 'arrogance' is the right word. Its not a proper arrogance you might expect from a football hero or a popular actor or some wealthy type.
Marcus is all a sort of petty insecurity about himself and a contrived persona among his peers to protect themselves.
The worst part of this whole thing is that he enforces it through sympathy and temper tantrums. People don't call him on it because they feel a bit sorry for him and then are forced to play along 'or else' he will get sulky.
Its actually a very bad thing for Marcus because it allows him to continue deluding himself indefinitely and really getting better and better at it.

It's OTT arrogance in a self deprecating way. He does not really think is can do all the things he can do, or that he is captin cool or there for the ladies. It's all a joke.

Sea of Ash did call him on it, when they Bea Marcus and the S-man where in the garden after the tea party he called him "An attention seeking ******ing baby".

To be fair he designs dolls for a company that sells them (get your facts right). He doesnt just collect them. A good designer is a creative person with some degree of intellignence. You have to give him credit for that?

Ripping the heads and limbs off one doll and glueing them to another is hardly creative nor does it show a high degree of intelligence, my daughter was doing that at the age of 5.

And he did mention he does have a collection of action figures kept mint in their boxes, (a good investment in some cases)

of course :thumbs: he is bored most of the time and most of the housemates aren't up to his intelligence levels so he entertains himself like this. He has a great sense of humour, and only really Siavash, Freddie and Bea in the house get his humour. The people who throw their toys out here about him would make him roar with laughter if he knew :hello: and would he care? :hugesmile::hugesmile::hugesmile:

[aborigenie]

He is surely very very insecure but he has managed to hide it in a way that instead f bring repelled ppl actually enjoy ,,,

BTW he was totally at sea when he was talkin to Tom that night Tom was in Jail,,,, kind of disappointing show from our dark horse ,,, his insecurity was fully evident,,,

i like him tho

[vladicus]

I wouldn't call him highly intelligent, but I do agree most of the housemates arent on the same wavelength as him, humour wise.

The main thing is like him or hate him he does entertain if only by causing controversy
