Yeah, that's what I don't understand. He seems to want to cause trouble but is doing so in such an idiotic way. A lot of his trouble-causing is inconsequential

[MarcusMel]

The actual task was to get the HMs to target one amoung them for evection, only Andrew did not know that was comming. So he could not plan for that only doing what he thought BB asked him to do while in the 'Others' house. If he managed to complete this task he would then become a real housemate. Not sure what BB are going to do now!

Not very subtle at all.Infact like a bull in a china shop.But he blew that ****ing house up.They tried to all stick together and brush it off but by then he'd already head ****ed them.Ryan just added abit of chaos to the situation.

Fair point

[Lstan]

'I've done the job almost too well'

No hes saying that to cover the face hes blown their cover. For him to do it "too well" he would have caused chaos without suspicion. He certainly ruffled their feathers but I imagine he does that to everyone he comes across he does come off haughty.

[jennyjuniper]

I think Andrew is probably smarter than the other housemates think he is, but not nearly as smart as he thinks he is.

[Adamw92]

Is it really going to matter what he's said after Marco tells the rest of the house there's a 2nd house with people in it? They're all gonna know immediately that he was there and is just trying to stir things up.

Andrew is like a silent assassin. He listens and watches and betrays no emotion. He has a consummate skill in delivering exactly what he says he will. He hones his skill by acute observation and carefully measures what he says. I noticed when Marco was threatening to throw him out of the house (false bravado and playing to the gallery) Andrew did not flinch. In reality Andrew could have despatched him so easily because of his martial arts training. In a few carefully chosen sentences he created mayhem. He said he would and he was voted in by those who voted to see him do it. He delivered in spades. He has a brain and uses it. His icy, non-emotional demeanour will not win him friends or admirers and probably will be the reason he might not win as generally he exudes little warmth. He is the perfect housemate because of his ability to bewilder - quietly. He is a strategist and would make a first class spy...

[MarcusMel]

Apart from the aparent messed up BB mental preperation (you will be going into the house to create paranoia) followed up with (you will go into the house as a NEW HM)

I also note that Andrew then had a nice counter remark with 'and you don't bother to question why someone would come in do what I did'. Which might be BB's way of saying he also countered the HM's thinking by implying it was a task I can't talk about!

[alex_front2]

BB mucked up. They should have told all the other (Jayne, Hughie) HMs about this task prior to Andrew and Ryan being selected so that whoever entered would have time to formulate a game plan. By just telling Ryan and Andrew the mission the moment they are evicted, full of adrenaline, excitement and the baying crowd was poor production IMHO.

I think you're giving him way too much credit

Agree

[Crimson Dynamo]

The fact that he failed to convince even the twins says it all

He is a hot mess

Exactly...he did it his way ...that's why it's brilliant...he knew better than BB....his plan worked better....he evicted the two good guys, set the twins into meltdown and watched the two alpha males run away....carnage within 10 mins just like he told BB he would do....this guy does exactly what it says on the tin....I can't understand what's the problem....he's one of the most exciting housemates we've seen

Say what you want about this guy but you've gotta give credit where its due. Within 10 minutes he had completely messed with their mind and their conception of house dynamics.

I back this all the way - but the question is - can he hold it together with a house against him ?

Im right behind you mate.....first housemate I've liked to watch this much for ages....and about time too....so many diff types of viewers, about time we had one that doesn't only play to the majority...

I know, thats a great question and i want to find out the answer ...sure as hell beats the more common questions like "will they or won't they sleep together " or " will they or won't they turn the hair straighteners back on "

Big Brother is back and about time too

I think he IS as smart as he thinks he is....I may be proved wrong but I would be surprised ....I hope not, I'm enjoying it too much for it to stop

But they were certainly a lot more mind****ed and paranoid than before they entered so yeah I'd say job done

I agree....I love watching Andrew, I really do...and I loath Ryan on every level....but I think Ryan played a blinder....credit to him...I thought he wud def bollox it up and he didn't.....between them they owned the place last night.....Ryan got attacked more because he's not as physically intimidating....I'm sure they all wanted to attack Andrew too but Ryan easier target

Oh yeh...Victor...forgot about him....I compared Andrew to Marc O'Neill but tho Marc was a brilliant wind up merchant he was more tongue in cheek.....but yeh, Victor....this guy got similar vibe to Victor....only 100 times better

He's a lot of things...arrogant, confident, calculating, intelligent, intuitive, brilliant.....all the credentials of a potential great game player and great housemate....nice guys and happy endings can be found on Midsummer Murders....arrogant can be good...depends who it is and what else it's mixed with.
