I should say he is of average intelligence - around the 100 IQ mark.

That's stellar, of course, compared with the likes of Sophie and Sam and some people on here ;)

Think Dan is a repressing his creepy side and is paranoid that its seeping through! Bloody creep!

Assuming you mean academically intelligent?

I for one wouldn't limit my appreciation of anyone based on exam results, it would be pompous and ignorant to reduce housemates personalities down to educational attainment as a measure of my appreciation.

I don't think people do dislike Dan for being intelligent. Though I can see why his constant paranoia would piss people off..but BB set him up for that really with the secrets and lies theme and Michael :laugh:

Who knows what their exam results were/are? And why would it matter?

I think it's amazing how he works everything out, he hasn't got much wrong. he worked out Michael was an actor, he had a crazy gut feeling Gina and Dexter were in a safe house, and now he has a sneaky feeling that the safe house isn't very safe, he spot on with what he says, what i don't like is his girly dancing about and how B**chy he is, i mean i've worked with girls/women most of my working life up until now, and wow i've never known nothing like, but Dan takes it to a whole new level. lol

Every single one of his though becomes major event and thread on here.
He doesn't like Callum,he gets slammed for that, Dexter belittles Callum every chance he gets but is a hero for it.

Sophie is quite selfish, okay when she gets her own way, you can though easily see the nastier side when she is displeased at even the smallest of things.
Yet, being so dull and inactive, she would be preferred to support and stay if it got Dan out.

You have hardly been on here through this series and have worked that out already, you and Dan would make a pretty good pair.:hugesmile:

I agree that it seems like one rule for Dan and another rule for the rest, it's not very fair at all.

And lol thanks Joey.

Over these two up for eviction tonight Dan is simply a BB LEGEND!
If he does go it's back to the borefest with the other two.

But why do people seem to actually dislike Dan for being clever? Yes it's annoying that he seems to know everything but it's not something that people should evict him for over Sam and Sophie imo.

Hi Mockinator :thumbs:...It's not that he's intelligent that I have taken a dislike to Dan buddy...it's that the guy is too smug for me! :nono:

...but of course we all see it differently...you may think that my favourite hm's Dexter/Gina is smug?....and I suspect that you might agree with Joey that Sam is far too boring to collect the prize money...but they are my top three, and tbh I can't say that I really care what order the rest of them finish!...and when all's said and done, it's only a game..and perhaps we might agree on the next celebrity winner. :hugesmile:

Cheers buddy.

Actually Dexter and Gina are my 2nd and 3rd placed housemates, with Sam in 4th.
I like all those and can see faults in all as well as many good points too as I do Dan too.

Dexter has had reason to seem smug at times when he has been put up for eviction so many times and survived.
Gina had a lot of problems with some housemates early on and rose above it all too.
Sam is totally harmless and I loved his chat with Callum in the task the other night, that was the bst thing I have seen on BB this series.

Then obviously I really like Dan, he has stirred things, he is annoying but he is always doing and saying something and that is why I think he certainly deserves to stay tonight.
Ironically it is also why I feel near sure now that he won't because he is so high profile of the 3 up.

Nice post Joey, and of course I agree with most of what you are saying my friend!...[but obviously not Dan, as I explained my reasons yesterday]
By the way...I really like Dexter then Gina most but would like Sam to win, because I feel that would be the best place for the money, for obvious reasons. :thumbs:

Cheers buddy.
