...does he look like he is about to be sentenced to death when faced with a possibility of being up for eviction? The distress on his face during pass the parcel was painful...
Surely it's part of 'the experience' he so wanted to be part of? why does he have to look like a lost puppy?..Looking for public sympathy me thinks.
Nobody wants to be up...nobody wanted the bloody parcel but at least everyone had a brave face on.
Probably part of his game plan...who would have the heart to give the parcel to him when he looks like he is about to burst into tears? ...
Just an observation..

"Parcel him" sounds so racy djdjdjdjdjj

[LukeB]

Because he wants to be there until the end maybe? he has been trying years to be on this show and it's finally happened. He wants to experience everything including the final. Not forgetting a twist like this is scary for a superfan because they know what could happen.

[LukeB]

No one knows what its like because they are not in there, this opportunity means a lot to Raph

[Macie Lightfoot]

I think a twist is scary for anyone?

I guess he does...but that look is just so desperate...it's embarressing.

When he's seen every series of BBUK and watches international versions, it's apparent he's very serious about Big Brother. He's finally in there with a chance to win and experience it all - he knows this will be his only full series (unless he gets invited back for UBB2) and wouldn't want to have this taken from him so soon

it's not desperate but it's his dream. So anything like this would worry him. Normal really

[TaylorCallum]

Well like Luke said, Raph is a huge fan of Big Brother and has tried for years to get on the show. He obviously wants the full experience possible and is anxious about being evicted or what kind of twists Big Brother might do.

Very true. you can never know what will happen and if there's no UBB2 then you will only experience this once so you want to experience everything. I also watch international BB and watched big brother since i was 10 so i would be he same too (i would prefer to be on CAN/USA really i prefer their format) it's pretty normal to him to look like that.

But doesn't it mean a lot for all of them?...nobody wants to be up for nomination. The opportunity means a lot for all of them. We all know he is a big fan...but the desperation is hard to watch. I mean have some confidence and self respect...looking desperate isn't a good look.

I mean apparently not, some of them have said they've never even watched the show before . Like him or not Raph is a genuine fan of Big Brother, that can't be said for everyone in that house.

Yeah nobody wants to be up for eviction but the experience means more to him than the others.Most of them were recruited from having tv experiences so they can't be that serious about big brother than Raph is. They might be a fan but Raph is a super fan and it means more to him.

Yeah Kieran has never watched big brother before, if he was serious about big brother he would have auditioned without being approached.

Yep. Just like most of the other reality stars in there aren't in it for the Big Brother experience, they're there to get some publicity and hopefully hop on to another reality show when they leave.

I know how much it means to him...but I think it's all a bit sad that someone takes it THAT seriously.

[Mystic Mock]

I don't get it either tbh.

If his hated (which we all know his not) then it would be better to leave than waste your time in the house if you're not gonna win.

[Mystic Mock]

I still remember when Joe got evicted and he said that he was a "fan of the show" yet he'd condemned Raph in the house for being a gameplayer because he knows how this show works.

It means a lot to them all.

[thesheriff443]

When its your dream!, its means more than someone doing it for a bit of fun.

[Beso]

I have no clue whybhe is in there!

He is so boring and is more in the background than charlotte..he would be the least missed if he went.

[bots]

There for the experience my arse, there never was a more stupid, commonly used statement. Are others not experiencing it? Is life not an experience more fulfilling than anything BB could offer?

He wants to win, as does everyone else, nothing more, nothing less.

[thisisdanny]

So much shade on Raph, ya all dangerous

[sampvt]

They all want to win. It thinks he has it won and the fear of getting evicted is hard for him to take. I don't think he can handle rejection. He is too emotionally wrapped up in himself.

[Littlegreen]

Yes pinpoint Raph, when most of those in the task room were uncomfortable.

At least it shows he gives a crap about his place in there. Shame on him, eh?!
