Yes maxwell is a mong, his stole the saying 'off the hook' from the sad yankee chick flick 'The girl next door'

[Sven]

And you know he wasn't using that saying 10 years before that film was even made because?

[Fangz]

Maybe the 'off the hook' thing was around before the film?
Anyway, if the film's so 'sad', how come you know it well enough to make the connection?

[Henju]

I dont know for sure and read it on another board, but i highly doubt he came up with it

either way i hope the gooner is gone by midnight

Don't think it matters where he got it from- all that matters is that he does say it and he is 'off the hook!' x

[Tanser_Man]

It's a London thing i presume.

[Henju]

I dont think anything on big brother really matters, its mindless entertainment

I'm from london and i've never heard it

[Ruth]

I don't think it matters where he got it from - people pick up catchphrases from lots of different places (and I'm not a Maxwell fan by the way).

I do wish he wouldn't say it quite so much though.
