I must learn to read all the posts n put my quotes n responses in one post instead of a string of them...SORRY

Sure amen't I only one myself and I haven't a breeze what the eventual rebellion will entail. Also I was looking for a smiley that fit and couldn't help myself #SorryNotSorry

Are you seriously asking whether or not one nasty individual is representative of all of Ireland?

most daily mail readers think that Rab C Nesbit is what all scottish people are

[Daniel-X]

Wow. Can't believe how narrow minded the OP is. I like Marc but of course they're not all like him! Some of my family are actually from Talla in Dublin (Where Marc comes from) and they are nothing like him. They are actually just very down to earth and normal actually sometimes a bit quiet.

It's like asking are all women from Holland Lesbians because Adjoa was.

I'm not asking this from thin air, I heard Jade before say something like 'oh there's that Irish banter that I love' when Marc first arrived, is why I asked

Well he's obviously a lot more Irish than the other housemates and yes a lot of what he says is typical of Irish lads but they don't go that far. Like chances are two dubs are going to have more in common.

I believe her first words were ' Oh no, I know him, he's an ar*ehole' in fact, I'm sure of it. You can see they hate, nay, despise each other but in their own heads have recently decided to play the game...mayhap there's even a bit o that dreaded sexual tension everyone in the studio keeps talking about....again, sorry for adding to the string...maybe I shoulda went back to bed first, let a few posts pile up afore responding...ok gonna hold my index 'tongue' for a bit

..to be fair to the OP, Marc kind of 'promotes' this himself or did in the DR with...'I'm a typical Irish eejit' tobegorra, tobegorra...so maybe has referred to his nationality other times we haven't seen as something he thinks 'adds to his charm'..?..or excuses things or whatever because of course we know that every Irish person in the land has kissed the Blarney Stone, t'is a well known fact...anyway, he's not a 'typical' anything...BB don't do typical in characters because where would be the ratings..they do or try to do more extremes of personalities or personalities they think will conflict, regardless of nationality....


EDIT:..anyway if he was typically Irish then as Niamh said, she would have wiped out a huge part of the population of her country by now and they seem to be doing ok and not decreasing too much in number...

[joeysteele]

No, not from the family and friends I have in Ireland.

[Ramsay]

Yes everyone of us looks and acts just like him. you got a problem m8?

[Visage]

I'd struggle to believe that someone's personality is based on where they live.

[Angelika]

There are idiots like Marc in every country around the planet. It's not typical of any one national trait - it's unfortunately part of mankind as a species trait, that is the worst mankind has to offer kind.

[billy123]

Yes they are all like that. In ireland they dont even have money they just collect scrap metal and use it to trade withn and its compulsory to have a whippet on the end of a piece of string when out in public.

How could you find that hilarious? Marc had only just come into the house and that was the second or third sexual reference he had made to Chloe. No we irish are not like him.He is vile disgusting and horrible. Yes we have banter but he is in no way reflective of our society. I don't like him he makes me sick and I hope that other people don't this he IS REFLECTIVE of Irish people

[Livia]

I imagine if our Niamh came up against Marc and he tried that "banter" of his on her I like to think he'd end up in casualty trying to explain to the doctors how Niamh's shoe got jammed up his arse.

You think correctly Livia If all irish men were like him, i would have emigrated long ago

Usually I find the Irish accent really sexy. But on Marc, not so much.
