Someone help me please....
 
Can you please explain why people like Ben coz so far ive found him unbelivably annoying and i dont think its a coincidence lots of arguements happen around him but please explain why on earth the public like him

He's been promoted alot by not showing all the bitching, by giving him twists, and showing him as being nice on shows like BBLB and BBBM. I think it's the fact that he is articulate and can sound calm, he is used to being on TV, so he can come out looking better in arguments.

Its because he is such a Ponce Toff
that he is Funny.


I want more Hard Tasks
that break Ben - again.

If the Task is being held back because of Steve
then that stinks.
Put Steve away from Hard Tasks
and get them going.


Shabby likes it hard
JJ can handle it.

wow Starry... I didnt know you could be so lucid :joker:

Yes, what Star says here.... he has had an extremely kind edit and a lot of free camera time from BB.

He is also a TV professional, put into the house by his agent, so that does make a difference in how he composes himself.

JustSkipIt 04-07-2010 11:27 AM

:cat: He's a spineless, self-centred, lanky streak of elitist piss - and he's very, very funny because he is also well-meaning, bumbling, bemused and charmingly naive.
Love him or loath him, the house wouldn't been nearly so entertaining without him.:bouncy:

Chels 04-07-2010 11:29 AM

Yay someone with sense :) I really need to remove him from my sig lol.

That's quite an ironic post given that tonight's HL will show BB demonstrating to the HMs that he's a lying toad who will lie at the drop of a hat to weasel himself out of trouble and look good

A bit like his idol Jeffrey Archer really!

mileycyrus 04-07-2010 11:50 AM

because Ben is a sweatheart

Lex 04-07-2010 11:52 AM

Because....He's the best!!

Nuff-said!:dance::elephant:

Braden 04-07-2010 11:59 AM

He's a funny person, who likes to interact with people.

people like him as people are different thank God,same as we like different things in all walks of life,we obviously see things in Ben that others don't,same for other housemates,I guess it depends on your outlook on things,imo Ben is one of the best housemates ever.

Angus 04-07-2010 12:08 PM

Despite all the haters he's in top three betting odds to win, and tops the polls on this and other forums as most favourite HM and that's because he's provided most of the entertainment in the house. Everything could change dramatically when they bring the new HMs in, but I think new blood will just provide more people for Ben to bounce off of. So far he is the teflon man - BB keep throwing sh*t at him, and it just keeps sliding off!

I probably wouldn't give him the time of day in the real world but warmed to him a few days in because of the bullying he received. He has subsequently revealed himself to be a complex, kind, thoughtful, knowledgeable and above all eccentric character, all of which gets bonus points in my book. It's just a pity he doesn't possess any "street smarts" whatsoever. I am struggling to pick a favourite in this years house but wouldn't be too annoyed if he won - as long as I didn't have to see him on my telly ever again. Of course it will never happen - he has a few billion too many brain cells for UK general public to vote him a winner.

To answer the OP, I dare say that most of Ben's fans would be compassionate people who can see beyond the bumbling toff exterior.

Also Ben is far from confrontational, the reason that there are a lot of "arguments" happening around him is because he alway seems to find himself in the position of defending himself against the multitude of jibes and accusation from the HM who seem use him as a verbal punch bag to gain airtime. Simples. :D

Ben is an annoying toff twat. He lives up to his stereotype. Don't know how people could have time for someone like that.
