but is there anyone home? He's been in the house six weeks yet I have absolutely no inkling what he's about. He has a blank expression on his face every time anyone is talking to him, a montonous voice and crap conversation. He really seems to be stuck in an adolescent phase and it's hard to believe he's 28.

I know he's watched loads of BB and, like JJ, is very aware of how it all works. Seems his modus operandi is to be bland and fly under the radar which has actually worked in terms of nominations, but got *****ed up for him by twice being picked in S&R tasks, hence his petulant rants. I cannot stand his obsequious toadying around people in order to be everybody's friend, and I notice the a*se licking always intensifies at weekends.

A lot of his behaviour is sleazy and sexually charged, but never quite enough to cause anyone to complain, but seaside carry on humour has never been my thing so I find him deathly boring and often cringeworthy.

His pursuit of Ben in the first few weeks was irritating but since he has finally realised Ben is definitely not interested, he has turned his attentions instead to making bitchy comments and sly digs at him, often gratuitously. Hell hath no fury like a Mario scorned.

He seems to have a sense of entitlement to remain in the house and probably to win it since "he had to work so hard to achieve HM status"! Since the mole task he has just sat back and blended into the background. I find him one of the least likeable HMs, and it's astonishing that he could even make it to the final. His contribution in the house in terms of entertainment has been zero.

Absolutly spot on.

You really don't like him either, do you

I really, really don't, and yet when he first went in I had high hopes of him. What a let down!

'The lights are on but is there anybody home?' ... I love that expression

I warm to Mario at times, I like his honesty with Ben, but sometimes his shmoozing with some others when he tries to make them feel better sickens me, he by far isn't the worst hm bb has ever had, and should probably have been chosen as an original hm before ife and corin.

Dury's still out here, but for now he's watchable enough.
