Default Will the early favourite to win curse happen with Alex?

Alex is the early favourite to win but do you think he will go down the same route as Caroline,Wolfy,Pauline and Jack? All of these were day 1 favourites Jack made the final but people began to hate him due to him being really cocky etc so he flopped.

He doesn't seem like he'll turn into a knob. He makes the final and he wins by 70%.

Vicky will just get all the Geordie Shore cast to vote for him, infact the agency they are all with probably have it written down to promote him and ensure his victory.

Doubt it, he seems okay, a little boring, but not offensive

This.

He is very boring but that is his winning virtue. All the entertaining Hms will ultimately come unstuck eg Marco kicked out for rigorous gropeing, Jackson saying something offensive etc. Alex will sit back, take his top off to keep the shallow army of twitter teenies and gay voters happy. Vicky Pattinson will stir the troops. And Alex will book Ł100k prize pocketed (to top up the Ł100k fee).

Only if a non-public vote eviction happens and he somehow ends up on the wrong side of it

Truth except this

us gay voters usually dont vote for a dull bore like him. 13 year old girls and 70 year old cat ladies do that

He seems like a nice guy.

But that's not winning material. I think we will see more of him now in the Others house.

I don't think he'll go down that "fall from grace" route.

Well out of the 4 examples you've given, the females downfalls seem to get it worse (Pauline/Wolfy) and Jack managed to retain some of his popularity by the final week for some odd reason.

But no I don't think it will

I personally think that was a result of him not giving a **** about the publics opinion. When you stop caring about people's opinions, it makes you a better HM.

I didn't like him for 7 weeks but then the last week or so I actually grew to like him. Dunno why, perhaps edited better or him just being himself, I thought he was great in the Hotel BB task, as well as his final week.

Just stuff like BB telling him off and him telling them to F off because everyone does it and only he gets in trouble (something like that)

Agree, when Jack got some of the prize money he was happy and no longer gave a sh*te what we the viewers thought, which made him entertaining towards the end.

Alex seems like quite a mature guy tbf. 28. He's very controlled and I can't see him tripping himself up and putting a foot wrong. He won't get embroiled in a showmance unless he's really into the girl. He will be the mediator in fights. Breaking up any altercation that threatens to be interesting, he will be a "good egg" getting stuck into the tasks. And just when he disappears on HL show his top will mysteriously fall off.

Bbuk is about furthering his brand, both in terms of TV work post Judge Geordie but also in terms of fitness, he would see that prat Joe "body coach" Wicks make Ł1m a month and decide he wants a bit of the clean eating fitness pie.

He's what I call a male selfie poutie *****. He's one of those guys who takes endless selfies or pics with his iPhone out pouting top less into a mirror.

Caroline did well for someone who fell from grace, she lasted 8 out of 10 weeks - although tbf her staying longer meant the public began hating her even more and more so by the time she was evicted she was the most hated C5 housemate at the time

Same. But then again that probably goes in his favour judging by some recent winners!

Pleasantly surprised by Hughie being so high in the odds.

Depressing, isn't it. But I take comfort in fact Leicester City we're 5000-1.

Difference to those people, in the looks department i think he will appeal to a wide audience of young girls/adult girls , which makes him a real threat to win.
