Do we need marcus?

[Maxxie.]

Cmon he's been rather **** since 2011 despite being iconic before then. Idk if Marcus over doing things is his or c5's fault but either way it does not look good on the show!! If Marcus did get sacked, would he be missed? Should he be replaced, and by who? Should they just not have a narrater like IAC and most global BB's? Tbh I'd even rather have Rylan (might actually be quite good at it providing he was speaking, not screaming)

[Firewire]

Not really, time stamps would suffice considering the HMs names appear on screen but we'll always have him and I do think I would actually miss his prescence if he wasn't there

[zakman440]

If he calmed the **** down and stayed away from the live shows then he'd be fine.

[Greg!]

This he just needs to calm it.

[arista]

yes bog standard Marcus
is needed by Ch5HD

[Jay_Roberts441]

I would love Marcus to be sacked from all aspects of BBUK, agree with Firewire in that timestamps on screen would suffice with the TOWIE'esque nametags we have to put up with. #GetRidOfMarcus

[Pete.]

He's kinda iconic but Channel 5 (and low key BB11) ruined him

[reece(:]

He's expendable

Its like asking do you need a penis?

He annoys me too much now, sounds like hes overdose on both speed and happy pills.

[zenon]

Marcus should have quit when Channel 4 pulled out, he's just a prat these days.

[Turtle]

Yes, we need him. Who would replace him, some milktoast bore?

[Jay_Roberts441]

Just a thought get rid of Marcus and have Emma Willis as the narrator, I mean Big Brother is her show after all. I'd imagine she would be miles better than Marcus on all levels.

Channel 5 have made Marcus a joke by having him at the forefront of all live shows and his over the top narration on highlights shows is unbearable.

[luvjustin]

I just don't think I could get used to anyone else. Even if he has become a bit of a characature these days, he's been the one constant from day one.

Remember when Davina used to narrate the highlights on the eviction shows? At what point did that stop?

And can anyone pin point the moment Marcus upped the anti? Was it bb10..?

[TomC]

^I think BB3 was the last year Davina narrated the eviction HLs, could be wrong.

And BB11 was the year where the narration becomes a bit creative.

[Niamh.]

He's the last remaining shred of BB that's left :'(

[Babayaro.]

Its like asking do you need a penis?

It's not though

[Glenn.]

All he needs to do is chill the **** out then there's no problem. He seems to do it deliberately now though because he knows it pisses people off. That's not cool.

[T*]

I think Emma narrating is a great idea TBH
Put the Geordie to rest

[Babayaro.]

I'd be here for Jamie East doing it tbh. He has a good voice for it but obviously i'd much rather Marcus stayed, even if he is unbearable at times

[Marsh.]

Take him off the live shows for a start.

[Rob!]

I think the main problem is that the over the top impressions people used to do of him in the old days is actually what he's become now. He's a caricature

[lily.]

I think it would be weird without him, but I agree that he is not the same as he was in the old days..

[Maru]

Marcus lets me know it is BBUK here in the states

[Nigel]

He's way too over the top and over involved nowadays, either tone him right down or get rid. I'd quite like the voice of an authoritative older woman narrating (similar to Anne Robinson or a radio 4 type)

[Jordan.]

I don't want him gone but it wouldn't be a disaster if he did leave. I think it'd make sense to have one of the BB voices replace him.

[drantb]

Yes, he's the iconic 'voice' of BB but nah, get rid. I can't watch the pre-titles and coming up trailers (partly because they give everything away) but also because Marcus is ****ing embarrassing.

[lily.]

I don't watch the 'coming up' parts for the same reason. It basically just tells you all the good stuff to come and ruins it.
