Default What is there to like about Dexter?

Seriously, he's a vile little weasel, boring, tedious, fake. I can't distinguish anything remotely endearing about him.

Please enlighten me...

I don't think he is endearing at all...I tried to like him and did for a while but now I think he's a joke and almost like a caricature BUT having said that he has been a good housemate. Not sure what impact he will have now Callum has gone and he has nothing to bitch about, will probably go back chasing Charlie.

He's fun, intelligent, smart, witty, clever, funny, endearing, sweet and honest. I see him as an improved version of Freddie. Socially awkward, but a very strong person. He has been thrown the most vile abuse at him in that House, but he never complained and has handled it brilliantly. And to top it all he's a fantastic housemate. Never a dull moment with him! He's my winner this year.

I bolded the bits I don't agree with, I honestly can't believe how anybody would think this of Dexter unless they were his mum.

I started to support him after he stood up for Michael. I thought that was very brave. He reminds me of Freddie a lot.
I'm loving my holiday.

Dexter is a great housemate:

1. He is intelligent
2. He is intriguing and mysterious
3. He is funny
4. He lets things go and doesn't hold grudges
5. He puts up with a lot of sh*t
6. He is friendly
7. He loves being on BB
8. He is frank and gives his opinion
9. He is great at changing course when things go wrong
10. He is generous

What more do you want from a housemate?

I cant say he is one of my favs because I cant stand his weasely ways. Is he good tv, yes, should he win, absolutely no. People have lampooned Callum for his fake CV yet Dexters is straight out of a comic book and he gets away with it. Ok everyone lies on their VT to get in but he astoundes me by admitting his VT is fake, but then he keeps bringing his wealth up regularly even after admitting it is a lie.

He is a game player and it is a game, but there is something about him that wants me to slap him. It will be interesting to see who he targets now as his plan is to keep getting the weaker HM out so his presence is assured till the final. Hopefully Sam has a pop at him and they go head to head but alas he might sit back now and take a breather.

This week seems to be all about waiting to see who gets nominated as there are no real contentious pairings in there now except hazel and Gina and they are way too savvy to blow it by arguing after Callums rants got penalised. Its all about overdrive now to get to the final.

Dexter nominates to survive not to eliminate.
His VT is about creating an impression. Does it matter if he isn't rich, didn't buy an expensive bottle of champagne, didn't gamble vast amounts of money?

He only seems intelligent because of who he's surrounded by at the moment.

Funny? only if you find snideness and condescension humourous.

Sweet and honest? he's the most intellectually dishonest person i've experienced in a long time and he has a penchant for veiled insults that he knows he can weasel his way out of.

Deviousness is not an indicator of intelligence. He knew how to get under Callums skin and set about that in an incredibly vindictive manner.

Never complained? he does nothing other than bitch and whine continually, if he's not doing that he's making snide comments.

He always went on about Callums VT being fake and giving a bad impression of Callums character, but the fact is Dexter tried to portray himself as "the most successful sugar daddy in london"(?) so he has to buy womens affections? he's shallow and materialistic? or he's just a liar?

He has the body of a 14 yr old boy and a whiny nasally voice akin to screeching fingernails down a chalkboard. Get him out...

No it matters that he bullshŁ&@ed.


In fact next year I am going to audition and tell the interviewers I am a sex crazed Buddhist monk that eats lunch off the backs of my army of ginger slaves so that hopefully I can get a place in the house. Worked for Dexiepoo, it will work for me.

Would you rather have housemates like Sophie and Sam who say little and do nothing or housemates like Dexter who create drama and tension?

Scared has been missed off the list.

Never seen anyone try and backtrack so much as he did last night.

Neither are ideal, people should be honest in their Auditions and if they judge that they are good enough then so be it. Instead we get a bunch of liars who either aren't interesting or are just lying desperadoes trying to cling to an ideal of fame and recognition.

Dexter has got guts and i love that. He stood up for Michael and that made me notice him for the first time. He's still victimised in the House by some housemates, but he never complains. He just gets on with it with a smile on his face. I still can't believe he doesn't hold grudges after the way he has been treated. He even hugged Callum before he left. He's a class act.

I don't mind Sophie now, but i can't stand Sam. His friendship with Callum has really poisoned his mind. He used to be so nice before.

Dexter provides entertainment however theres a scale balancing being annoying and being entertaining and its tipping well in favour of the former at the moment.

Hi Callum!...it didn't take you long to start part two of your campaign against Dexter!...I would have thought you would have needed to have a long rest after all those interviews and psych-assessments before you got started!

by the way....Dexter is good entertainment and a lot more pleasant than the rest of the hm's put together...it's as simple as that!...[unless 'the twins of evil' entertain you with their ****e routines? ]

Surely you don't expect housemates to be saints. The best housemates (Victor/Marcus/Rex/Aaron) weren't saints - they were flawed.

Dexter has done the most in that House. Even Gina in my opinion doesn't even come close. I love watching Dexter and i want him to win.

I said honest. If someone really is a muppet in the real world then by all means pick them, I am talking about people who make up their real world persona and turn out to be nothing of the sort.
