Why does this matter? Criticism is healthy but Marcus is just the narrator, despite what some people think, it's not the most vital part of the show.

And chances are he does get this question asked of him on Twitter. He probably is allowed to do what he wants within a certain frame work. For all we know, the producers probably ask him to do what he is doing.

It does matter when he starts screaming over the tasks resulting in me having to turn my tv down. It interrupts the show and takes focus away from the contestants.

A narrator is supposed to narrate not steal the show.

He is an arrogant twat and has blocked atleast 5 people on this forum.

I don't blame Marcus for being a bit rude in his reply, Patrick wasnt rude in that tweet at all but the man must be sick to death of being constantly trolled on twitter.

Well maybe he should take the criticism and change then if hes sick of being asked about it.

People aren't fans of him anymore, just look how few twitter followers he has compared to others involved in BB.

Such as? Presenter of several dozen things Emma? 10 million watched (and heavily talked about) live finalist on the most recent series of The X Factor Rylan? They're famous outside of BB. He's got 12,000 more than, uptil recently, the main weekend presenter of the spin-off, Alice Levine, who is also a Radio 1 DJ, and he has over 35,000 more than AJ (the latter is just as valid a comparison as Rylan is, i.e. not at all).

I don't understand what you're getting at? You're just confirming what I just said lol.

He has very few Twitter followers considering hes been there since 2000 and people consider him as a major part of BB.

Fewer followers = fewer fans.

Marcus has 37,000 followers. Even some of the ex Channel 5 housemates have more and that's saying something.

Even Jamie East has 92,000 and all he did was appear on a spin off show that gets under 1 million viewers most nights.

AJ is yet to even appear on screen really and Alice only presented BOTS on the lowest rated days plus shes not really high profile on Radio 1 or established properly yet so its natural they have less.

Seeing as Marcus is featured heavily in every episode and his voice is famous all over the country you would think he would have a lot more followers.

Hes probably blocked most people who dare to even give an opinion to him.

He should raise it with the producers then. Tell them that fans are not happy with how he's being told to narrate

I really don't think Fewer followers = fewer fans, think of all the people thats been watching since the show started that doesnt bother with twitter, or any social media for that matter.

I like Marcus, but detest how over-the-top he is now. It actually ruins my enjoyment of the show. Also, he's massively overused now. Once upon a time, he was the narrator. Now, he introduces the host and says the eviction message to. Why?!

A show the public control?

Far from it.

Results are based on viewer votes but that's about as far as it goes.
