I'm really starting to like Ben
 

My opinion has definitely changed about Ben, when he walked in, he looked like a right prat but he's really growing on me and I reckon he could be an entertaining housemate as the series progresses.

Plus I like his friendship with Mario. Good times.

As have mine, on launch I took an instant disliking but that soon changed, he is very respectable and interesting.

I love him and mario together as friends
although a lot of [people are thinking its a bad thing

I thought he was going to be a stuck up nob when he went in but I really like him now, he's made some classic oneliners too!

I'm looking forward to seeing how his friendship with Mario develops as well, we could have another Craig and Anthony situation on our hands I think lol

i love him he is hilarious! 'whats her chops' :joker:

Agree with everything you said bar the Mario bit.
I loves Ben I do, he's funny as ***** and he doesn't even notice :p

Am I missing something? They don't look like great friends to me. Mario seems to want to be rammed by Ben though which is fricking disgusting and makes for cringe worthy viewing when he is going after him so desperately.

He is not quite the upper class twit everyone thought he was going to be

My opinion went up today when he was talking to Steve about his accident (is accident the right word?!)
I'm trying not to let his ridiculous accent and foppish demeanour bother me - he's a good guy deep down.

Same! He is quite hilariously innocent. His chicken salad sandwich conversation with Corin tonight is my best bb moment so far.

He's been great so far. I think Ben just proves that looks can be decieving. :)

yep, he made me laugh again tonight.

There is only one word to describe Ben - GENIUS - the man is brilliant, he is more like a characture than a real persaon. I love him to bits. But not in the slightly sinister and overly touchy way that Mario does.

even more i love the friendship between sunshine,mario and ben

I dont like Ben...

I deal with the upper-middle classes every day of my working life, and Ben is absolutely typical (in a good way.) He is himself, he is not afraid to ask questions that may be perceived as stupid. Also the vague gay air...it's just a public school affectation. He will genuinely want to get on with everyone. You will find that people like him are a lot less interested in class difference than those with a class-chip on their shoulder. Go Ben.

Ben could very well win this show

And he doesn't have a clue how much the public like him now

i think him and mario are worthy winners so far but known the public i doubt ti wil happen

He so wants to be liked...but he is utterly charming and not a bad bone in his body.

Ben was so funny tonight talking about Shabby and co. The "washer women" comment was really funny too.

Loving Ben.

Same, he comes out with some right quotes :laugh:

I love ben hes a really nice guy and wants to get on with everyone but mario is starting to make me feel really horrible the way he is trying to touch him all the time and stroke him. wish mario wud leave him alone

ben is very funny and he has the witches as he calls them sussed out shabby i think is a manic depressive and needs to go on medication she said it herself she is up one minute and down the next

he's gone down for me tonight.

why?
