Freddie was the true legend of BB10

I think another Dark Horse fan said it best in a post I read earlier, I've added on to it so everybody can see that Marcus is the greatest housemate:

The fact that a lot of threads about Marcus get made is because he's the housemate that makes the most impact -- I count 12 threads about him on the first page alone, and how come the haters aren't talking about their favourites?? I don't see many positive threads about the other housemates like David, Lisa, Sophie etc -- it's because those housemates don't bring enough to the table, so people don't have reasons to talk about them and their fans dont get any inspiration.

Face it, Marcus is what's keeping Big Brother interesting, if it wasn't for Marcus this forum wouldn't get half as many regular visitors -- which other housemate have you seen who has tons of threads made about his legendary quotes and general awesomeness every day, and who has survived tons of evictions because he has so many fans?

Marcus is the most entertaining guy in there, he deserves to win BB10 and The Irrepressible Dark Horse will ride on to victory this Friday and so will his supporters.

Until he started having panic attacks whenever Bea spoke.

What's having a panic attack got to do with anything?

Still a total legend in my eyes

But each to his own

I hope your phone is on redial, like mine.

How can he be a legend if he's weak enough to have a panic attack at the sound of someone's voice? Stop talking out of your arse and pretending Freddie is anything more than a regular housemate.

by that logic how is marcus a legend after his obsession with noirin?left a broken man after not being given free reign over noirins "nubile body"... he didnt get to have his way with her,and he sulked..not much of a legend if you consider a panic attack reasons for dismissing freddie..

Being a legend isnt about strength.

Look at Michael Jackson.. he wasnt the strongest emotionally but still a total legend

IMO legend is about character, about what you have achieved, about the impact you have made on people. Freddie went on a journey, he stood up to people who were bringing him down, and was always himself, plus he has forgiven the people who brought him down and refused to say anything bad about them when he got out of the house. IMO that makes him a legend

I think whats so intriguing about Marcus is the perplexing nature of his character and the genuine pathos that surrounds him. The David Brent comparison is always with me when I watch him in action. He's a fascinating character, whether you admire him or not. Personally I think he's a little scared boy who hides beneath the facade of machoism and his own misguided intellect. He's so interesting to watch and really entertaining in both his delusional ramblings and his moments of real warmth or insight. Magic stuff.

Yet Marcus beat him

[ninjaboi]

I agree about Marcus, the guys great fun to watch. He deserves to win it.

Did you just delete that post eggdavid? I was about to respond.
Yes I have many worthwhile things to say, it just so happened Tintedshadow took the words out of my mouth. Now would you rather I posted nearly the exact same post or was it better that I simply agreed with him?

I did delete it, which is sort of why you can't see it anymore. It wasn't an important comment, though, for those who didn't catch it.

Anyway -- quoting somebody else and saying "I agree" is all very well and good but I would have preferred you bringing more to the table by making a post beyond a one-line response, even if it is a similar thing to what Tintedwhatever said.

I've already replied to him, though, so if you were to actually make the post anyway then I have pretty much already responded to it. So far he hasn't replied back. Probably too busy posing for his profile picture.

You just cant take it that tintedshadow owned you

[GirlsAloud]

I think people are arguing over nothing here... Both Halfwit and Marcus are legendary... full stop. They both brought so much entertainment to the house.. in different ways

[Colbert-Bump]

Freddie was a fantastic housemate but so is Marcus. Have you guys seen that computer game with Marcus running over all the housemates?

I responded to his post and he hasn't replied back. Are you still crying because Freddie got owned and Marcus is a bigger legend than he'll ever be?

In your reply back to him you said Marcus was the only one to stand up to Bea that night. Well Freddie had got up to say something to her but Marcus told him to go back to bed. Funny how you forget the facts.

Ok what was on my mind before I saw Tinted's response was:

If Marcus fans insist on calling him a legend then the same must be allowed for Freddie fans.
Freddie was favourite to win this whole thing right from the beginning & kudos to him for surviving so many evictions.
Marcus started getting popular halfway through & also began surviving evictions. A lot of people are now backing Marcus to win.
Fair enough. But both have had their downfalls. Freddie got sucked in by Bea & we both know how that ended. Marcus got sucked in by Noirin & refused to believe she didn't want him until she got with Siavash. We also know how that ended.
Both have done & said things that have kept people entertained..Marcus being the funnier of the two but still.

So I do believe you cannot call Marcus a legend while dismissing posts from users who see Freddie that way also.
That's all.

[Colbert-Bump]

I wish Siavash would have said something to Bea during her rant to Freddie in the bedroom that night but he bottled it...shame.

[Colbert-Bump]

Freddie is a legend and he deserves respect aswell.

Actually, he didn't. Freddie was lying in his bed laughing and Charlie pointed this out, whch caused Freddie to leave the bedroom and start explaining to Charlie that he was laughing about Bea's "if you can't take it then don't give it out" comment to Marcus. Charlie then gunned Freddie down as usual, and Freddie went back to bed. Funny how you forget the facts.

Trying to deliberately twist what happened to make Freddie look better won't work.

Yes then Freddie was waiting for Bea to come out of the DR so he could tell her what a hypocrite she was being but Marcus said 'do me a favour mate, go back to bed' cos apparantly he wanted to make himself look bad, all the while knowing this was TV gold and he was making himself look entertaining

And I'm not trying to make Freddie look better. Freddie is out now so I have no reason to. Just stating the facts
