Marcus is hilarious.

He can be crass and vulgar, but he is also funny, honest and a generally straight down the line person. A lot of his vulgarity seems to arise from his inability to be nuanced or tactful, which is all tied in with his honesty.

When he referred to one of the two blondes (I cannot remember whether it was Karly or Sophie) as "t*t-bird" in the process of trying to give her a compliment, I was in shock but also in stitches.

I think the house would be much poorer without Marcus. However, I am convinced he will be up against Halfwit next week.

Yes and also when he was asking Norine to defend or back him up over something ( I forget) and Marcus claimed Norine had said something nice to him, Norine replied that she couldn't remember and would only ever usiing a 'term' to her brothers. Can't for life of me remember what it was, but anyhow Marcus was so trying to flirt and was not doing a very good job. Their conversation ended with Marcus looking/feeling foolish.

So yes I can see his lack of tact can come across wrong.
