am I right in thinking he'll be the first newbie (of a civilian series) to win Big Brother?

[bots]

yes, i think so, there was that year, that a newbie got given a wad of cash, Eugene was his name I think

Yeah I was hoping he'd win, I think he might have done if he hadn't taken the cash

I think so. Brian would technically be classed as a newbie as the launch was all female I guess

Oh I wouldn't count that as a newbie just a **** twist

[waterhog]

if marc wins - i will be delighted and this series will be a classic vintage and well praised.

[Babayaro.]

Technically Brian, but I wouldn't count it as he was part of the original male cast

[ThriceShy]

Brian was a newbie. He entered well after the start of bb8

[chuff me dizzy]

What a night it will be I will be as pissed as a newt !!!

[Amy Jade]

I would say no as Brian wasn't there from day 1.

I'd loath Marc winning, next year would be full of people acting like him and frankly I can go wetherspoons if I want to watch men in their mid to late twnenties act like 18 year olds

True plus the men went in after only 1 week of 13 hardly worthy of being called a newbie .

Brian didn't enter with the men. He entered well into the series.

He entered the house with Liam, Jonathan and Billi on Day 17, which is definitely not well into the series considering it lasted 94 days

Yeah, they clearly don't understand that by crowning horrible creatures like Marc and Helen it will go further downhill, encouraging C5 for more of the same garbage. and then they'll be moaning on how BB is bad.

He entered at the same point as marc entered this series.

He was definitely a newbie. He entered over 2 weeks after the initial housemates.

[daniel-lewis-1985]

I class Brian as a newbie seeing as he entered on day 17 or something.

[Ramsay]

Brian was a newbie

[alex_front2]

Brian Bello will have already had this president. Bb8 had an all female launch which meant the winner - inevitably a man - would be a newbie.

2.48pm: "I don't wanna win this." We believe you, Marc, thousands wouldn't... #BBUKLive

Brian winning was quite an achievement actually. I am convinced mark will win too now.

People see nastiness as entertainment now. You only have to go on twitter to see how vileness is ohhhhed and ahhhhad over and encouraged. It makes some people feel good to think other people are worse than they are...takes the edge off the guilt.
Helen was a winner for our times, unfortunately. At least Marc has some redeeming qualities.

[goldensunlight]

This is news to me, I didn't realise Marc wasn't an 'original' housemate who entered on launch night.

Please, don't even say those words...ughhh, I don't mind if he stays in another week but hope to god he doesn't win.

[Trasadkel1]

i think it will be a disaster if Marc wins to be honest. It will just encourage a houseful of characters like him who thrive on antagonising and insulting people to cause arguments in the name of "entertainment". I am just not getting that this is what we want to see because for me it is far from it. I have stuck by this BB but I have struggled with it on numerous occasions. the fun elements that used to be a large part of BB are now few and far between.

Also they have taken to concentrating on a few housemates in the highlights to the point where unless you support these housemates the final is just an anti climax. If Marc is not evicted tonight then that will be the case. Then they wonder why the ratings are struggling.

I would like nothing better than for Marc to win, but could you imagine Danny's face?

[abhorson]

If Marc wins....

Can BB please turn out the lights...
