Ben, seems like a nice chap why all the hate?
 
He seems like a guy you could have a interesting conversation with and doesn't seem to stuck up

Fetch The Bolt Cutters 10-06-2010 12:11 AM

Shaun 10-06-2010 12:11 AM

because he's rich and people seem to think that everyone rich is responsible for the 80s and some silly north/south divide.

Novo 10-06-2010 12:11 AM

He will turn the people around

Novo love that pic of the two lads bored

thats when sunshine was talking:joker:

Fish 10-06-2010 12:16 AM

I don't know, I just think he seemed far too up his own arse when he went into the house. And each time a new housemate went in, the puss on his face. He didn't seem like he wanted to be there at all.

He is alright i suppose, my first impression was to hate him but he's done nothing wrong apart from be posh which isnt his fault lol.

bbfan1991 10-06-2010 12:17 AM

I don't mind Ben:), ironically he has had some criticism which Freddie had last year..

MJBFAN 10-06-2010 12:18 AM

I'm starting to like Ben. I wasn't too sure when he first went into the house.
Time will tell but he's starting to grow on me.

Ramsay 10-06-2010 12:19 AM

he'll turn into a favourite

mkdfan 10-06-2010 12:20 AM

I cant remember which CDWM he was on, i just remember seeing him and remember him going to the supermarket lol.
I very rarely watch that show.

Patrick 10-06-2010 12:20 AM

Feel sorry for him.

Boothy 10-06-2010 12:21 AM

I actually said "I hate middle class people" to my mum when he went in. I love him now :D

they will boo him every week

BJ 10-06-2010 12:38 AM

I really like him. I think he'll be an interesting HM. Hope he's given a chance

SoFarSoGood282 10-06-2010 11:02 AM

I like him.... he just got booed from the chav's....

Niamh. 10-06-2010 11:03 AM

I can understand why people who didn't watch any LF last night dislike him, but he seems like a nice fella after watching a bit of him on that

Speedster 10-06-2010 11:05 AM

Because he's very pompous.

No he is not. He is interested in the finer things in life, is well educated, and has a high opinion of himself. None of these things are bad things.

Most of us have a high opinion of ourselves. We should. It's healthy as long as we are still fundamentally grounded in reality, and I reckon Ben is the most down to earth of the lot in his own way.

well said
he wasn't all about him he sat and listened to others. i think he wil be a nice guy but sadly cause he's posh the chavs will hate him

Speedster 10-06-2010 11:15 AM

I missed last night, I was busy trying to get to grips with the posting system on C4. I've since given up with it lol. I only saw him go in the house and his v.t so I'm only going off that, so you're probably right.

I think people can be far to quick to judge everyone who goes in the house, and the way they boo people is really unfair;how can they be so judgemental and spiteful to total strangers?, they're like it every year.

Stu 10-06-2010 11:16 AM

Yeah the live crowd are a horrible representation of the BB watching public.

eye sea 10-06-2010 11:20 AM

Ben reminds me of this guy.:D

Chuckyegg 10-06-2010 11:22 AM

he appeared to give a dirty look to everyone that walked in. I'm sure that's just his way but it rubs people up the wrong way.

Yeah, but give the guy a chance. It's been barely 24 hours....

sarza 10-06-2010 11:51 AM

I think he's seems alright actually, he would probably be the one i would choose to speak to and hold a decent convo with, although i must say when i first heard him i thought oh dear, but hes accent is kinda cute LOL...
As for the crowd, typical bunch of Chavs probably, and jealousy goes along way...hope he gets a fair chance.

The_Big_Send_Off 10-06-2010 11:54 AM

Housemates eating 40 metres above the bb house...
 
just been announced on live feed...

Ok, I take your point, but lets just see how forgiving people are about others in the house with "high opinions" of themselves, I'm willing to bet that on this point Ben is in a minority and that most people'll write off most of the other h.ms saying they're just big headed/arrogant.

Lee. 10-06-2010 01:06 PM

I took an instant liking to him. I don't know why a lot of people seem to dilike him. Put off by the posh voice maybe?

Sabrewulf238 10-06-2010 10:39 PM

I admit I thought he was the "better than you" kind of guy when I first saw him....but tonight he seemed like a nice enough guy.

First impressions can very often be wrong...

Zippy 10-06-2010 10:44 PM

He has a hooray henry voice and a miserable mush. But in convo he's possibly the most likeable so far.

A dark horse.

Tom4784 10-06-2010 10:45 PM

I've done a 180 on him since yesterday, I think he'll be interesting. He seemed very snooty before but he came off well in tonight's Highlights.

pixee 10-06-2010 10:46 PM

nooo ben is this guy

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qwicLgOGJOI

But i like him so far, seems nice and trying to get to know everyone in a genuine way not what i expected.
