He interrupts him and won't let him speak in groups, then filters conversations to him later to make himself look good and other hm's look bad. What else would you call that?

Callum jumps in and starts speaking for Sam, finishing his sentences, answering the other person's questions before Sam has a chance. That's not looking out for someone, that's being a condescending twit.

I agree with this its not just Sam he does it to tho he tried to put words in Charlies mouth yesterday when he was chatting to her in the bed room he was boarderline begging her to see him on the outside and you could see she was uncomfortable answering the question but he wouldnt let it drop in the end she did well to avoid answering by giving a half ass'd no .

Well may he ask - I think that must be the most disturbing DR clip I have ever seen. The contortions on his face and his movements were pretty scary. I really don't get how he can appear quite normal one minute and the next behave like someone, well, quite frankly, 'not all there'.
I want to like him because I feel sorry for him and just when I'm getting there he goes and acts really weird and kind of sinister again.
I can't believe that anyone seeing his DR Dexter rant wouldn't think that was really weird - even his fans.
He doesn't do himself any favours at all and it's no wonder really that the HM's don't like him. I think even Sam is trying to back off.

I cant take a set of pearly whites seriously

And the answer to Rylan would be NO.

There is no evidence for this. When Sam misses words he looks straight to Callum for kelp. No point looking to the other self centrered lot.
Sam's family were watching the same as us and they said they would be happy for Callum to stay with them.
I do not recall people persecuting Pete because of his facial tics.

callum uses sam he has latched on to him as he finds him easy to manipulate and as well as a good sounding board to gain airtime about dexter and raise his good guy image profile.

its like when the politicians get their pictures taken with the kids in the hospital wards. etc
callum is not stupid. he makes a massive big deal about sam to get the point across a look at me arn't i nice.
real friendships dont operate like that. i dont think any of us would be making a big deal if we was him. i know i wouldn't .
sam looks pissed of with it to be honest. he is stuck with the creep.

I know it's a typo, but it begs the question, which one is Spongebob and which one is Patrick?

It's like we're watching entirely different programmes.

I can certainly agree in a reasonable conversation that are some odd things about him. But I truly do not think its creepy, disturbing or evidence that he needs help as some keep pushing. Not everyone has a perfect personality but I really have not seen anything that could be deemed scary. So it really bothers me how OTT people are about him.

Watching Dan talk to him last week was horrible. He wasn't even looking in his direction and was mumbling.



For all his faults (ha! got that in there) Callum is the only one who actually bothers to take Sam's hearing difficulties into account.

Not that he gets any credit for that. In fact, when he was signing to the lad a bit of dialogue he'd missed during a group discussion when jackie was still there, he got pulled up for making a lewd gesture to describe a lewd comment.

HERE HERE!! The other housemates don't even REALISE when they are doing things like that that exclude Sam from the conversation.
And Jackie was being a right aul biddy to Callum just cause he was trying to keep his mate in the loop. Looking for an excuse she was!

I'm sorry but that is just pure speculation and IMHO completely wrong. The two lads have a lot more in common with each other than with any other housemates

I think his normal friends would be typical lads so in a house full of rather camp men he probably saw Callum as the best bet. And to give Callum credit he is really the only 1 that considers Sams disability although I think it's a combination of him feeling sorry for Sam and thinking it will help him win over the public.

I think Sam will really cringe at Callum when he watches the show once he's out

Sam and Callum have plenty in common esp football and girls. Seeing the two of them crack on to the two tanning spray girls was GOLDEN! Callum is a typical lad albeit a little bit more upfront with his self-esteem issues.
I am certain Sam will laugh his ass off at Callums diary room antics and rip the piss out of him

I would probably call what you've described as your interpretation of events surrounding a HM that you don't support.

Funny, I would call it regular viewing on the Live Feed when Callum, Gina and Sam are speaking to each other after the rest go to bed.
