View Full Version : Marc to Danny, "I'm GOING TO KILL YOU"?
When danny was trying to calm the mighty mouse down at the diary room door, I am almost positive that marc said "then I'm going to kill you" as Danny walked away.
Did anyone else here this, I know it can be difficult to understand the knob, but I am sure after re watching it a good ten times that this is what he actually said.............................................. ...
Surely to god that is a straight ejection.

Maybe if he had a kitchen knife in his hand at the time, but as a figure of speech...I'm sure they can let it pass

Yeah it is, when I heard him say it I wondered would people complain about it, I'm sure alot of English people wouldn't know what it means but some surely do.

Well if they ignore Harry's 'I'm going to smash his face in' I suppose they'll ignore that too.

mmm It's not always used to refer to Travellers but it's basically either another (derogatory) word for a Traveller or a dirty, scummy person so in that respect it's still insulting to a Traveller

I think that is what he said, but I highly doubt he was literally planning on killing Danny, so there's no problem here :shrug:

In Ireland knacker almost never means a member of the traveling community but that is the origin of the term. It is a word I don't use personally however because I do think it's a filthy word but his use was no more racial than if he'd called her Asian. The putting down of Americans in the last CBB was a lot more racially charged, as is forum members dropping Marc's ethnicity in insults towards him (vile Irish womanhater etc). Though the contestants in CBB were using more PC language. I think it's a question of context though I wouldn't justify him saying it since I dislike the word myself.

Oh, perhaps a Dublin thing then? It's basically synonymous with scumbag how I have heard it used. Like when I hear the term I don't think member of the traveling community I think heroin addled waster . I can't think of a time I recently heard it to mean a traveller but it must be different in different circles

When I hear it used it's like "there's a load of knackers horses in that field over there" "There was a fight in the pub last night, it was a group of Knackers" etc etc but it's used to describe a scumbag also here but more like they're that scummy they may as well be Travellers which is just as bad really, if you know what I mean

You're definitely right that that's how it got into general use but I think semantic change has moved it beyond that for a lot of people. I can still see how members of the traveling community would find it horrendously insulting though, regardless of content so I'm a firm believer that it shouldn't be used. I was more so trying to show what he meant rather than excuse his language. Like even reading your examples in my head I see a different group of people when you say that word because they've been essentially disassociated for me. However given how it came into language it does have a bad history. I mean I've met travellers and worked with some and they were nice to me. I understand other people have different experiences but we can't call them all good or all bad, they're people.
I honestly don't believe Mark was referencing the traveling community but it is still filthy language to use and I don't support it.

It's not an excuse tho and I didn't even say banter. He wasn't threatening Danny with actual death. You really think BB would allow someone like that in the house? It's a figure of speech. My female friends say it to me all time when I do something that annoys them in a friend way.

Yes he should get complaints about his mouth but he isn't racist but you have let Harry off for using Marc's nationality as an insult and I saw people on here offended by that because they are irish. When you argue with someone nationality should be left out of it. Both are as bad as each other and should be judged the same. All females and males should be judged equally no one is better than another.

Im Irish and have lived her all my life and if someone is talking about knackers to me its itinerants, travellers, or in many other countries 'gypsys' I have never heard the term used for anything other than that.

a knacker is a very derogatory word for the traveling community - he should have been kicked out immediately for that. It's a horrible word.
Im gonna kill ya,,, or I'm gonna murder ya, is everyday speak in Ireland - it means nothing.

it could also mean a d*ck in a suit working in the Dail...However the word knacker is widely known as a disgusting word for a traveller. He should have been thrown out.
