Has Benedict dug his own grave?

[InOne]

What good did he possibly think could come (no pun intended) from telling people he wanked in the shower?

[Samuel.]

I don't reckon he thought anybody would care as much as they do. And they shouldn't really.

[erinp5]

I think he wants to be gone .

[Rustic bauble]

I think he is out of his depth with the housemates.....he so tries to act like the 'mature one' and then tells everyone what he has done....!!!! However 'natural' that may be....dont brag about it like an adolescent.

[Mrluvaluva]

Everyone can do as they see fit in their own privacy within boundaries, but just not everyone wants to hear about it I suppose.

[InOne]

I'd feel weird using the shower again if I knew he'd splattered all over it.

[Eosvox]

I'm sure he isn't the only one that has wanked in there.. Especially given how wound up Luke S must be at this point..Besides, I think Adam leaving the Poo streaks in the Bowl is way grosser..I mean, Im sure Benedict didn't go all porn star bukake in the shower..

[joeysteele]

The highlights did him no favours tonight at all.

[Kizzy]

Urgh, sorry no never liked him ...He had a successful career and chose to work in the sex industry....
Have less than zero respect.

[Marc]

Might be an easy nomination, but I reckon people have their minds set on other people. Thinking tactically

[jegmeister]

As a fan of Benedict, I am very angry with the producers - yet again one of my favs is stitched up by bad editing. Even that comment in the diary room after his argument with Scott was badly edited to make it look like he was overreacting. We aren't seeing half of what goes on in there so we really don't know any context to it but this biased interpretation is now out there and he is nailed.

And re the masturbation in the shower - it shouldn't be something anyone cares about - the fake outrage was laughable. It really is just an excuse to nominate him. They obviously don't like him and this has been what they've been looking for.

There is a nasty mob mentality developing in that house. Very unpleasant.

[Eosvox]

Benedict said on tonight's show that he cleaned the shower tonight, as well as, the night he wanked in it...So I say cut the guy some slack..

[Fetch The Bolt Cutters]

I'd feel weird using the shower again if I knew he'd splattered all over it.

I'd feel privileged

[Sophiee]

I really started to dislike him during tonight's episode.

[Doogle]

I went off him tonight because of how stupid he was about the Scott thing.

[Fetch The Bolt Cutters]

What did he actually do D:

He only told him to stop drinking idek I couldnt hear coz my mum was talking

[Marc]

I'd feel privileged

:joker: Don't slip

[jegmeister]

I went off him tonight because of how stupid he was about the Scott thing.

what happened tho? We didn't see anything to explain it - the editing was so vague it was unbelievable.

[daniel-lewis-1985]

I dont see any pun?

[Mrluvaluva]

I went off him tonight because of how stupid he was about the Scott thing.

I agree. He went down in my estimation. I don't think we have necessarily seen the way Scott has acted, but Benedick seemed a bit judgmental, and like he was the one who knew best.

[Halfwit]

What good did he possibly think could come (no pun intended) from telling people he wanked in the shower?

did he openly discuss it the first time? i thought adam told it to the group and we don't know how benedict told adam about it, i think it's a very natural topic to come up between males in a situation where you are followed by cameras all the time. maybe adam even asked him how he deals with the situation, being a porn star and all that.

i believe he started to talk about it today as some form of damage control because he knew some of the girls were upset about it and might put it past them if they knew he wouldn't do it in the shower anymore. obviously it did backfire because lydia is over sensitive about sex, even tho it is ok for her to make jokes about conners worm or talk about short cumings of an ex (jack osbourne), but behold if one of the males talks about sex or makes a sex joke in front of her :nono:

long story short, yes i'm afraid he dug his own grave. of course i was beginning to like him :cloud:

[Semtex]

I find him tedious, he seems to lack spunk.

He'll have to pull something out of the bag to escape nomination.

[Jords]

I think its too late to escape nominations with it being tomorrow.

[Bluerang1]

Don't like him but he was certainly edited to look bad in the episode.

[Cherry Christmas]

:joker::joker::joker:

[fruit_cake]

yeah he's not doing himself any favours it is more than a bit disgusting, other people have to use the shower and the toilet it's not just his.

[Kizzy]

Well I suppose in his profession you have to keep the creative juices flowing..
Wouldn't do to dry up during a performance would it?

[sampvt]

His gameplan is to champion some weird and bent cause to educate the uk on the rights and wrongs of sex and it looks like he is trying to carve a name out for himself as some kind of expert on the subject.

I think he will struggle now, not becasue he fires one off in the shower or loo, but because he made a big issue of it. Some things are private and should remain that way. I am not being a prude, just stating the obvious. When you tell someone this kind of thing, thei first thing one envisages is him doing the dirty deed and that I find ofensive.

He also has a very condecending nature and they way he speaks anoys me. If he is up, hes gone unless he is against Aaron.

[smeagol]

i like his attitude of yeah no big deal. shower though he should respect as its not his shower but other than that i get his meaning.
he will be up now think were gonna lose another good one as they gunning for three i like lauren deana benedick.

[Visage]

It would have been easier to follow if we saw what Scott was like drunk in the hot tub.

...Or did they show it and I just missed it?

[Livia]

I'm sure he isn't the only one that has wanked in there.. Especially given how wound up Luke S must be at this point..Besides, I think Adam leaving the Poo streaks in the Bowl is way grosser..I mean, Im sure Benedict didn't go all porn star bukake in the shower..

Good points.

When I think about the things I've seen in the house over the years, the things that have been said, the language that's been used and the number of times men have discussed masterbatinig, I find it odd that people seem to have deveoped a sense of outrage because Benedict has mentioned it. He doesn't seem to have done much to warrant the dislike he's getting.

[jyunga]

I think talking about the wank is just his angle to look interesting in the house to the public. "Wow, he's a pornstar! Woah, wanks in the shower, he doesn't care at all! What a cool guy!" Doubt it's winning over anyone since he's pretty much dull as ****.

If he was the only male to have discussed wanking, or to have wanked in the shower, then you'd be right. Only he's not the only one, is he.

No you didnt miss it, the edit was really biased, they really should have shown us what Scott was like when drunk, I dont particularly like Benedict as I find him overbearing and he seems to be quite deluded about his current profession, end of the day he is a low rent, though is obviously educated. He really should know better.

[fruit_cake]

I think it's the way he's gone about it, some things are best left unsaid. Everybody has to use the same toilet too, but they don't have to broadcast how their particular dump that day was.

[Kizzy]

Yes cherie I agree, It does seem cheap even though he is articulate and educated his opinions are adolescent at best imo.

The article he wrote for the guardian was a joke,

[Cherry Christmas]

Kizzy the link is broken, I will search for it online as I would like to read it.

[kistar]

Yeah its all over the walls of the shower cubicle!:joker:

[kistar]

Whats wierd about Benedict is he is supposed to be a porn actor which is pretty wild and out there yet he is a bit like your Dad with his sensible and condescending attitude, comments about youth of today drinking too much etc , not sure what he is trying to achieve ,but in my experience until you are perfect yourself dont try and telll people what they are doing wrong in life, work on making yourself a better person.....Ok doesnt always work out that way but its a theory in progress.

[chuff me dizzy]

Yes i think he has

He seems terribly pretentious.

[Livia]

I think he may seem pretentious because he's older, wiser and better educated than the rest of them. That must be quite threatening when all you've got is a decent body and some confidence.

Possibly, but he just has a certain sneer about him that I just can't warm to.

[LemonJam]

I don't care that he wanks in the house, it's more the irony of when he talks about how Scott is portraying himself in the house as a fool on the same day he bashes one out on a show that roughly 1million people watch.

[ChristmasNeeve]

I feel like this about him too

The only new thing for Benedict is the size of the audience I suppose.

Does no one remember all the other wankers that have previously been in the house? It's not like Benedict is the first to do it, or to talk about it. I don't find the idea as shocking as watching Jay last year, standing on a chair shaving his ar5e in the mirror with his c*ck in a sock. Now that was disturbing.

[LemonJam]

and let us not forget the sex machine that was Marcus Akin's master plan to bash one out over Noirin in the toilet.

Oh GOD... thanks so much for that image. I'm off to gouge out my mind's eye.

[Ammi]

..I don't really care what he does in the shower tbh..Caroline's reaction was OTT..I just haven't taken to him as a person..I think he seems quite patronising..

[iRyan]

He's trying to make a "point" that masturbation is natural
