Either, tell him to ****** off for good and not have a narrator at all [it isn't compulsory] or tell him to tone it down abit.

I need to watch what I say, last week I got a warning on here for 'threatening to stab Marcus Bentley' - because a moderator is either wanting his cock, or can't take a joke.
lmfao

Or because its against the rules to wish harm on people but that wouldnt have sounded as good in your rant eh?

Well if you directed half the bile you spew on this forum towards him on twitter he has every right to retaliate. I wouldn't put up with some self entitled little upstart thinking the show is all about what they want abusing me over twitter either.

Like Davina used to do every Friday highlights show.

ffs its embaressing.

Marcus needs to go and the serious monotone voice needs to be brought back on the eviction countdown
Daniel I agree with you. This would me brilliant and make is so dofferent in a good way from previous series

Imo, whoever is telling Marcus to speak so over the top should be the one being sacked.

They really need to tone Marcus down, and stop using him for evictions. They can quite easily get Emma to do that. The whole original idea I liked about Marcus was that he just simply narrates the house going-ons and nothing else. Since C4 introduced him talking for evictions, then C5 carrying this on and turning it 10x more dramatic has really ruined the effect.
I don't remember Marcus doing any talking in the evictions apart from the highlights on C4? Davina did the pre-titles VT narration if that's what your on about, but I definitely agree that the producers need to tone Marcus down, and stop using him for evictions, apart from the countdown on the door.

He's referring to him narrating the eviction highlights, Davina used to do it.

Poor Marcus It's not his fault, don't blame him, blame the producers. It's clear they want to use him as much as they can to keep the link with C4. If you heard his voice you would definitely think of Big Brother, so they are probably just trying to use that to their advantage.

God I hope the house is as good as it's being made out to be. The last ones have been pretty lackluster.

I mean, even the Dead Set Big Brother House (and the tour done by Charlie Brooker) is better than what we've been getting recently:

http://www.e4.com/video/w9qzv4TTZ9dzo0GSDN3SsR/play.e4

A few years ago I would've thought that the Dead Set house looked awful, now it's an improvement on the C5 houses.
