Marcello ant Lily getting close tonight

[Vanessa]

Didn't see that coming :shocked:

[Black Dagger]

Lily can do better than that creep.

[Adamw92]

It’s just not right :bored:

[MTVN]

He's way too old for her and she's grim

Not sure he'd actually do anything but Ali was probably right to make sure

[Jordan.]

Repulsive, she looked like a child next to him when they were sat on the sofas

[Adamw92]

The way people on X are making it out to be Lilys fault when she was clearly drunk and he wasn’t… he’s 14 years older than her. He knows better. :bored: Absolutely grim.

[UserSince2005]

hope my champ gets some.

[Saph]

Marcellos so horny he’s settling for the scraps

[Benjamin]

Marcellos so horny he’s settling for the scraps

:joker:

[Vanessa]

Late and live calling them Limoncello :laugh3:

[Niamh.]

He's like a preditor

[Antinous]

It was just drunken flirting. People can seem way better looking after a drink. Was Thomas jealous when he went into the garden with Sarah.

[Beso]

I doubt nine inches would be enough.

[jones89]

He just needs to let off some steam… in the shower

[joeysteele]

He's like a preditor

Plus she'd had drink too.
Admittedly both had but that was heading possibly to a taking advantage of that.

Yes, especially with all the other housemates looking on.

[thesheriff443]

He's like a preditor

I think that’s harsh
Lilly is close to him not just when she is drunk

[rusticgal]

I was starting to like him too….

[Niamh.]

I think that’s harsh

Lilly is close to him not just when she is drunkHe's a creep

[thesheriff443]

He's a creep

Then why are the female housemates not in the diary room complaining to bb or nominating him for being a creep

They are not because it’s not happening

[Niamh.]

They are not because it’s not happeningHe is a creep, I've been watching him with my own eyes

[thesheriff443]

He is a creep, I've been watching him with my own eyes

Calling him a predator is a step too far

If he is that much of a creep the other house mates would be calling him out and bb would step in .

Edited clips are not a true reflection of the house mates

You can’t edit the things he says and does, he very proudly says the crap he always does. Niamh isn’t the only one seeing a pattern in how he behaves.

[Cherie]

:joker:

[Cherie]

I think he loves attention from women, he wouldnt go there in a million years

[UserSince2005]

I doubt nine inches would be enough.

is that how big he is? youre my making my legs tremble.

Daze said the other women didn’t appreciate his slutty talk and suggestions the night she was evicted

Marcello needs to get standards.

That's my advice to him.

[Ithinkiloveyoutoo]

So random. Also we what's the age difference?!?

[Mrluvaluva]

Lily would settle for Boris Johnson. She doesn't have any standards. Take that as you will...

[vesavius]

"They are just talking you simple twat".. Love Emma

I’m just thinking exactly the same thoughts I did when it was suggested that Thomas might be falling for Lily….. And we won’t go there again!

I agree with you Garfie.

I agree with you Garfie.

But Marcello licked wine from her grubby little arm!! Just NO! Why would you even go there!? :shocked: :conf:

Marcello has a weird relationship with women.:joker:

After seeing more of him in this series, I honestly don't believe that he is malicious with it in any way.

But he does have some strange and gross habits about women, the Lily stuff tonight was definitely not my favourite stuff from Marcello personally.

I thoroughly agree. Funnily enough, tonight though, I saw the stroking of her hair more like an adult stroking a little child’s hair to comfort them, rather than anything dodgy, Don’t know why!? :shrug:

I think Marcello likes to flatter women in an attempt to make them feel good and that he sees himself as a bit of a charmer, but he doesn’t always recognise where it might be appropriate to draw the line.

The fact that Sarah has a close friendship with him, and seems to like him a lot - as it appears that many housemates do - makes me believe there must be a very positive side to him. I do think we’ve seen glimpses of that, but the main show seems to focus on the characterisation the producers have chosen to assign him and focus on.

I 100% agree with your points.

And I just want to add that I find it sad that Housemates get assigned rigid roles on the highlights, I think that it's unfair to the contestants and doesn't do any of them justice.

[Garfie]

Yeah, I’m absolutely with you on this. They do it every year, and then share all the footage that support the roles that have been designated for them.

This was where the LF used to be so good, as we could see the reality for ourselves. Unfortunately, the current LF doesn’t allow us to do that.

However, the fact we are fully aware the producers do that, does allow us to look behind the one-dimensional character they portray, and look for the behaviours that indicate the people the housemates are in reality.

[GoldHeart]

Omg the fuss being made, I'll admit it was maximum cringe and a bit gross...but mainly from licking wine off her arm :yuk:.

Marcello & Lily were both drunk as skunks ,and behaving silly. He was laid on top of the bed covers. And Lily jumped beside him... like a giggly teen with a crush . Please tell me where the predatory behaviour was ?.

He definitely sees Lily as nothing more than a friend, the hair stroking...was innocent. But it's being heightened into something else. For once Ali did something right and rescued themselves from eachother.

Lily said she fancies Marcello, it was pretty clear who was encouraging who,but she was in a drunken stupor... looking for attention,in typical Lily fashion.

Even Emma was like " He's just talking to her you simple tw@t" :joker:, when Nathan tried to blow it up into something else.

Then Emma roasting Lily's dirty socks aswell " he wouldn't want her with those socks" , I'm dead .... Emma gave double the one liners tonight Lmao

[Maru]

At the very least, Marcello is the worst at putting himself in situations that make him look like a total creep... maybe he should get that looked at.

Lily was all over him like a rash , but yeah I guess he could try and seperate from these cringe moments. They were both drunk .

It's going into the BB quotes of 2024 :flutter::laugh3: , I love how she instantly squashes BS with no filter.

[thesheriff443]

He is so creepy Sarah chose him to dress up

Let’s all ignore Nathan trying to get baked potato to sleep in his bed to keep the fake romance going

Another genuine moment tonight was the hug marcello gave Segun after finding him tearful

And i'm glad someone else noticed Marcello consoling Segun, it was actually a sweet moment:love: . Marcello saw Segun was upset,so he went to check on him... he's clearly got a heart. They even had a light hearted moment joking about onions :laugh: .

same I think he doesn't like arguments and just likes to stay friends with people so was letting her down gently...also maybe a bit of gameplay involved so as not to upset her and get nominated. He was very kind to Segun as well when he was crying ...

[Ammi]

…I’m glad that Ali openly diffused the moment…they all knew that Lily was very drunk and seeing Marcello stroking her hair/laying on the bed …just looked kinda creepy tbh…it’s good to break that moment for Marcello as well because it just didn’t look ok and that wouldn’t be a good look for him…

[vesavius]

He was also first in the store room to comfort lily the night before.

[Vanessa]

Nothing creepy about it. They were both drunk and a bit flirty.

[bots]

you don't act in a sexual way toward a very drunk girl nearly half your age.

She must be quite the catch because she also has a 38 yr old lesbian inviting her round for sleepovers.

Not ok, but he was very drunk as well. And she is an adult.

[Vanessa]

The way I see it they were both drunk and a bit flirty.
Like Emma said, they were just talking.

[Ammi]

Not ok, but he was very drunk as well. And she is an adult.

…she’d still be an adult when she wasn’t drunk, though…there is always a time and place and when she was so visibly drunk that we saw with the phone call and that housemates had commented on of Lily specifically …so there was for sure a level discomfort for me in watching that…

I get that, but I really don't think Marcello intentions were that sinister. I believe he's a decent guy.

[Ammi]

…I’m always a bit conflicted with Emma…yeah, there was just talk happening…(as well as stroking hair and licking an arm or whatever gesture…)…but Emma has displayed such a real enthusiasm and interest in Nathan and BP/showmance wise and almost an encouragement of ‘house romances’, maybe…

Maybe she's a big romantic, who knows :laugh:

He was drunk as well. I doubt it would be happened if they were both sober

[rusticgal]

I really am starting to like Marcello...especially with the Segun thing last night..I started to think he could get to the final. The Lily thing did have me thinking he really doesn't need to be doing that.
However, because she behaves like a child she gets treated like a child...by pretty much all of them. I mean Ali is a lesbian and she is cuddling and stroking Lily's hair all the time...no one says a word about that..whats the difference :shrug:
He did comfort her after she heard the chants and offered to cook her a pizza...stroking her hair when she's drunk..it is how you would treat a child. I really wish they wouldn't but maybe that's just what he was doing.

Lily forcing herself on him, the discussion, or Marcelo gently stroking her hair?

It was fantastic.
The look on Nathan’s face, him telling the others, asking if they had kissed.
The pillock is worried it will all blow his fauxmance out of the water.:laugh::laugh:

This.

[Garfie]

To me this was just two drunken people behaving like drunken people do, and I personally feel reading any more into it seems s bit of an over-reaction. Lily drunkenly threw herself onto the bed in a flirty mood as she finds Marcello fanciable. He did nothing more than stroke her hair! He hardly touched her inappropriately. It was just flirty behaviour between two consenting adults, and I feel we need to remind ourselves that Lily is an adult, and not some underaged child. Had he touched her in a sexual manner then it would be a problem, but this is not what happened. They were in a room full of people, and Emma summed it up perfectly. In my experience, go to any pub or club on a weekend and people will be behaving in the same way. Who hasn’t had a drunken flirt that means nothing and leads to nothing?

I think it’s important to remember how producers like to cast housemates in particular roles, then broadcast anything that seems to support that. This year, Lily is the innocent naive child and Marcello is the villainous predator. In so many ways it is like a pantomime, and it’s easy to fall into the trap of accepting the narrative that producers want us to follow. However, I personally feel that their one-dimensional portrayal of housemates can make us forget that we see just minutes each day of each person, and therefore perhaps get a very skewed impression of who they truly are as people.

I don’t disagree that some of Marcello’s comments and behaviours have been questionable- I’ve made that point myself in previous posts - but on this occasion I don’t believe there was any sinister intention. :shrug:

Great points, rusticgal. My reading of it was the same - stroking the hair seemed like a soothing gesture you’d make towards a child, and it doesn’t seem unusual for housemates to do that.

If I felt his behaviour was concerning, I would, as I have previously, call it out, but that’s not my perception of this situation.

Yeah they should all stop treating Lily as a child,but as mentioned on L& L if she acts like a child.... she's going to get treated as one . It's interesting how it's only seen as " creepy" when Marcello does it though :bored: . I swear the guy could be doing press ups in the garden,and still be called a weirdo.

The drunkenness & wine licking was cringe , but him just talking to her ...was just that .

[GoldHeart]

and when she said .....'that is your girlfriend' when BP was on the phone task :laugh:

As BP is screaming NO NO NO :joker: , that phone task was more hilarious than I thought It would be. Especially listing every potato but 'Baked Potato ' :laugh: .

[Ammi]

…so far as the thread topic and Marcello and Lily …it wasn't so much as any actions on their own for me …it was also that she was very drunk and that had been commented through the evening before the phone calls …and I’m also considering a few other of his actions in the house as well and interactions with …like the hand in throat action, which we’ve talked about…and also his anger with Sarah and his dismissing of her when he didn’t want to speak to her…with Marcello, every time that I warm to him, there is something that I think…hmmmm, no…and I certainly don’t think he’s one dimensional or that any of the housemates are…they all have likeable aspects of their characters and some have aspects that aren’t so much a good look as well and I think we all realise that…I’m glad that Ali called time out anyway because I think in that moment, it was the right call…

…no, it jarred a bit with me because Lily was hugely drunk…I will say that…and not that ‘it’s only Marcello…’…

[GoldHeart]

People out there acting like women can't ever be predators :whistle:

Shhhhh only men are creeps remember , especially if they're called
' Marcello ' :joker:. Funny thing is Ali is actually older than Marcello aswell.

[Ammi]

Yep pretty much my exact thoughts on the whole thing as well

…I mean, it’s not just the one thing, is the thing…it’s a few things that have jarred in actions and words…but to balance that, I also think that Marcello has some nice qualities also…

[Niamh.]

People out there acting like women can't ever be predators :whistle:

Of course they can but Ali doesn't come across that way with Lily, it seems a more protective maternal thing. I don't even like Ali but she's not come across in that way at all, Marcello has though :shrug:

[GoldHeart]

What was uncomfortable?
Lily forcing herself on him, the discussion, or Marcelo gently stroking her hair?

Plus afterwards in the garden she was giggling saying how much she fancied him ,but no no it's all Marcello's fault apparently :notimpressed: . If anything I think Marcello was humouring her.
