Since he came out of the secret room. Before he went in, I disliked him at first, then liked him a bit more. When he was in the secret room, I warmed to him as I thought he was more intelligent and less vindictive than Gina (though she was funny with it!). I was really starting to like him.
But since he has come out he has been strutting around like he's the untouchable king of the castle, imparting his words of wisdom on lesser mortals and generally relishing his moment of power and rubbing it in. His con - man tendencies are being brought to the fore once again. If any other male in the house behaved like that they would be torn apart. I just don't get it - what is it about Dexter that gives him an easy pass? :conf:

with 5 threads yourself you are hardly an expert!
dexter is getting away with it because no one takes him seriously he is a small guy so he looks child like as he wonders round the house.

Spot on! He is employing all his (considerable) con man experience once again and the selfishness is showing through again i.e. £25 out of the food budget so that he can get another bottle of Champers.:wavey:

Dexter is Dexter. for the show ONLY. outside the house no way. Gina for the win. I just don't know who Dexter is. I would have loved Charlie to win . but I dough it very much now

no he is doing a fine job of using the power and what he has heard and seen .without guns blazing. he is nice to those who deserve it , i think he is very diplomatic and smart.
its like the smart opposite of spedi.

He actually has more power by not spilling the beans. The HMs think he knows far more than he, in reality, does.

Dexter is rapidly becoming my favourite HM. I look forward to his appearances on the show, which wasn't always the case.

What was it he said in his VT? Oh right " I can buy and sell these people, that's my business"
Well the inept way Mr. Publicist is coming across right now he couldn't convince Richard Branson that he owns Virgin Atlantic.

Edit: If he went on to the Apprentice show he'd be laughed off the set on the first night!

He was great in the safe house but in one night he's ruined it and managed to annoy half the house.

Even Gina's pissed at him.

He has done nothing wrong. When you're in such a close space it can happen to develop feelings for someone else. But he won't act on them. I love his honesty.

Huh?

In one night he's managed to rile up Jackie, Callum and one of the twins re the alcohol. Then pissed off Daley because he was speaking to Hazel. Pissed off Hazel for speaking his mind (even tho she made out she was grateful for the info) and pissed off Gina, someone he'd grown closer to.

They all nominate him every week anyway. Why should he care? I say he should go for it. Tell them what he thinks. I like his honesty.

That wasn't the point I was making tho.

The poster said Dexter had done nowt wrong, I was pointing out that Dexter had a bad night last night and pissed a few people off.

Also, his honesty isn't very honest as he's so desperate to be friends with them (Daley and Hazel)

They all have arguments in there anyway. It will be fine i'm sure. They will clear the air eventually.

I don't hate Dexter - that's a strong word. My point is that if another male HM behaved him like he'd be blasted, yet Dex gets away with it with the fans and I don't get why that is.
Is it purely because he's entertaining (I agree that he is) or do people really LIKE him?

Don't matter If Gina is pissed at him. She's hardly a proper allie in there anyway. As long as the public sees it for what it is, which is everyone making him the scapegoat again, then he will be fine.

People get a bit beer-goggled when they have a favourite, he could kill a cat and the Dexter fans will find sources where Sophie may have done it too once so its okay and Dexter is still the best thing ever.

Truth is, he's not a nice man.

Tonights highlights could show him as being really smarmy with Daley. Relishing his alone time with Hazel whilst reminding her that Gina dislikes her and awkwardly telling Charlie he fancies her when it's obvious he likes Hazel.

None of that has anything to do with scapegoating.

I do think Dexter would have been better just not to say very much at all since the safe house was uncovered; let Gina make all the mistakes.

As for fancying Charlie, well, he should have kept that to himself also. I quite fancy her, too, but recognise she's just someone on the telly.

Spent her time in the safehouse stating she hates them all and doesn't care about them. Was especially bold towards Jackie. Comes to putting Jackie up for Eviction and all of a sudden she goes into a shell and is all "Can't do it, you do it"...be real. Dexter is hardly up front, but Gina most definitely isn't either :joker: Let's not forget her telling Jackie it was a really tough decision when she made her mind up in like 2mins :joker:

I think at this point, no one likes Dexter because he's a great humble guy. People like Dexter because he's entertaining to watch, logical and he doesn't take himself and/or the show too seriously. He's very self-aware he's not the best looking guy in the world, he's aware how people view him and he plays up to it in a tongue in cheek way.

Great housemate.

I love Dexter, and he's my clear winner. He's basically damned if he does, and damned if he doesn't regarding the rest of the housemates. It doesn't matter what he says or does, he will always come out smelling of s***. But, I think the appeal for me is that he is smart, unique, often screws thing up, and tends to combine that with a touch of humour that entertains me like none of the other housemates could. And underneath his often embarrassing exterior, is a person whom I detect has fairly low self-worth. He's definitely the most inwardly intelligent housemate though, as far as I'm concerned, and brings a whole new meaning to the word 'Dexterity'!

Kizzy
11-07-2013, 11:39 PM
don't get it, he says the same thing to dozy dazel that callum and dan said days ago and suddenly it's a revelation to them that they are being perceived as getting 'too close'?
I wish he would stop speaking in metaphors all the time, just say what you mean man!
Gina has got a little more diplomatic in her tone with some, however she rarely sugars the pill... I like that.

She said that she told him he has a "pass" but he doesnt really, just wanted to see if hed remain faithful or something.

Still he is being quite the hypocrite.

A girl to clip his toenails and wash his fluorescent socks?
