Imo, whoever is telling Marcus to speak so over the top should be the one being sacked.

They really need to tone Marcus down, and stop using him for evictions. They can quite easily get Emma to do that. The whole original idea I liked about Marcus was that he just simply narrates the house going-ons and nothing else. Since C4 introduced him talking for evictions, then C5 carrying this on and turning it 10x more dramatic has really ruined the effect.
