I can't find anything about him being in the Army either.

Marc is a very interesting housemate though IMO and he has basically admitted that he isn't as upfront and cocky as he tries to act which ties in exactly with what someone who knows him in real life said about him, I like to try work out BB housemates, how they will react and what they will say to certain situations and so on, so housemates that are as shallow as a puddle don't really interest me.

One of the most important things that makes him so likable to me is that he doesn't take everything so seriously in there, he is taking BB for what it is, a TV show that they are only going to be part of for a couple of months of their lives so he is trying to have fun, mess around, get drunk and enjoy it the best he can, a lot of the original housemates on the other hand are being far too serious about every little thing and it does get tiring to watch, I mean last night Marcus narrated that Joel had been 'interviewing' his housemates in the bedroom for over an hour, I couldn't be bothered with all that if I was in there tbh

Marc will be the housemate that's remembered from this serious.

Anyway yeah, I don't think Marcs a bad person, or a bully or whatever else is getting thrown around about him, he definitely does go too far with his comments at times yes but you can tell he's genuinely sorry when it gets brought up to him.

Other than that, the guy is ****ing hilarious, I haven't laughed so much at this BB since he entered the house and I'm definitely glad he did.

...hmm I hardly ever disagree with you Josy on anything really and I would certainly agree that Marc's 'interesting' but I don't think he's about having fun, messing about and getting drunk etc...maybe a week or so ago I would have thought the same ...I think that he's someone who has to have and can't tolerate not having 'dominance' over people...whether it be insulting to upset them, wrestling and 'playfight' or whatever I think dominance is a big thing to him..and yes he has some charm as well because otherwise he would be a pretty grim person but I don't think he's a 'about the fun' person...I think that only reason that he dislikes Harry so much is that she won't give him that dominance...she won't openly let him see whether he's upset her with his insults, this little 'mother earth' person who runs around naked all day will not bow down to him/how dare she..so then all he could do is say that she was a brown noser because nothing else would make sense, would it...?..I mean he's Marc the big man...so he's also assuming she much be low in intelligence and mocking her so which he did with how she speaks....he goes to far because he does what he has to do to make people subservient to him and they aren't even then he goes even further to insult them...I think he (has to be..)..quite an insecure person somewhere to feel the need to do what he does to people but I don't think there is any fun or jokey about it at all or anyone in the house not getting his humour....

It's a shame that someone who clearly is an interesting character chooses to hide behind some sort of obnoxious moron act.

I think that the only reason Harry doesnt like Marc is because she wants the dominant role in the house, after all being dominant is what she does fora living. Shes no earth mother either. Shes also rather whiny, moany and needy.
Plus this is not a thread about her.

She's jealous of the limelight he's getting

..there has been nothing at all in Harry's character in the house that has said 'dominant', she hasn't showed any dominance over any housemate whether they be a friend or a 'foe'....she just hasn't succumbed to Marc and stands up to him at times...

Then put that in another thread about her, as stated this iis not a thread about her!

..as you know Susie, I replied directly to your post mentioning Harry's apparent dominance yourself when you quoted my post...but don't intend to make another post about something that I don't belief exists so no threads really...

The bully card gets thrown around too much, marc is deffo not a bully. It's just banter. May be a bellend but he's a great guy deep down. Helen from last year was a bully and marc isn't doing what that cretin did tbh

He doesn't need to be as aggressive as her. That he is a bully boy is undeniable, frankly. That there are worse forms of bullying is also undeniable. I wonder how big a bully he'd be with the cameras turned off.

He is not doing things to be a nasty person tho? It's fun and jokes tbh. He hasn't bullied anyone really. Just has a filthy mouth like most people do. He's an interesting character tbh like joel said. You hate him one minute then you love him the next.

Calling someone a cumbucket and constantly making disparaging remarks against the women, even after being asked to stop being so extreme with it, is nasty and takes it away from being fun and jokes, it takes it into nastiness level imo.

He's silly for saying it but he doesn't mean anything nasty from it tbh. He's a nice guy deep down.

Ofc, what guy has he made overtly misogynistic, disgustingly vile, sexual comments to? I don't recall him calling any of the men cumbuckets, or telling Simon than when he cried he imagined it was him making him cry through sexual pain, but please enlighten me with your insight on something we haven't seen.

..it's a bit more than a filthy mouth to feel that you would be turned on by seeing someone cry...

..hmmmm. it's a tricky one because I wouldn't say bully either but someone who likes to feel his dominance over others, whether they be male or female, he just does it in different way with different people...he had that with Sam already in that she was his adoring puppy but then she also conflicted that with saying that she hated him and that e was an idiot etc...so then to insult her the way he did and say that it would turn him on to see her cry ..?....hmmmm, definitely someone who feels the need to dominate and have all others 'subservient'...

Maybe he shouldn't have said that and he got warned for it but i think he is a misunderstood guy. I think he does this at home tbh and it's a habit or trying to avoid home sickness. The sam/marc is deffo a love hate relationship. But mard deffo doesn't say things to be a nasty person imo

..it's not the words though, that speak his 'dominance' and the need to have it..maybe he shouldn't have said it, it wasn't the smartest thing..?..but imo it's that he thought it/that he felt it whether saying it or not...

[Beetlejuice]

My own view on bullying is not that the word gets thrown around too much but that people get too hysterical over it. Some forms are mild and tend to be little more than a guy trying to assert his authority or superiority over others. That is what Marc is all about. But people like that can soon get vicious when they don't get what they want.

...yep, insult, insult, insult and offend, offend, offend until you see the reaction you want and then 'make up' because you didn't mean it of course...
