I like Freddie on the highlights show but
... when I see him on livefeed I realise that if I had to live with him I would either be very annoyed by him and probably not like him or be bemused by him and humour him in a way that Siavash often does.
He is just a bit odd. I have nothing against eccentricity but I can see how it would make it difficult for people to relate to him. Yes, his speech and his huge self confidence which often borders on arrogance are probably products of a priviledged upbringing and a private and then Oxbridge education but his other eccentricities and mannerisms are not. They are not really typical of a private schooled/oxbridge educated person. It doesn't make the other housemates stupid because they can't relate to him - I'll admit some of the others; aka dogface and kool kris are not that bright although I think kris is dumbing himself down because he'll thinks it'll endear him to the public - but I've noticed that Freddie fans often accuse anyone who doesn't like him of being either a) stupid or b) not respectful of other people/ not able to appreciate a well spoken and well mannered person and this just isn't true. And Freddie rarely does mention his intelligence/education and is the first to acknowledge how intelligent the other people in the house are.
I still want him to win, but mostly because I don't like the rest and I do feel he has been picked on. BUT I can understand why the others don't like him. He is an oddball and I can see why it might be difficult to relate to him.
