Default The reason Ben doesnt like Andrew
When Ben went into the house he thought he would be intellectually superior to everyone but now Oxford educated Andrew has come in he has taken a sudden dislike to him. Obvious really.

Andrew is a threat to Ben, Andrew knows Ben's little quirks through watching BB. Ben knows this.

Ben is not intellectually superior to anyone. Not even the bunch of ******* currently occupying the house. His self importance will always show thus rendering him the dullard that he actually is.

Agreed. Ben has (I assume) had an expensive education. But that does not mean his IQ is notably higher than all his fellow HMs - although it is higher than some.

Andrew is brilliant at MATHS - that's it really. So he could probably beat Ben at Sudoku and Chess! And of course he'll have that shopping list sussed in record time:smile:

Joking aside, the reason I think Ben is a bit off with him is because Andrew mentioned to Ben that he didn't like his lack of enthusiasm for the tasks, and Ben thought it was a cheek for him to mention it being a newbie

Yeah too obvious.

Andrews too young to threaten Ben intellectually. He doesnt have his wit or sophistication.

Its more about him knowing more about public opinion. Gives him an upperhand.

Andrew is a geeky lad who probably finds equations more exciting than girls!

His IQ is probably off the scale whereas Ben is perhaps just a bit above average.

But Ben feels all the new HMs have the upper hand over him, because they are privy to information outside the house............ including forums like this one!

I think Andrew has the potential to take the 'worst ever HM' crown from Hira.

Only time will tell, I suppose.

Ben and Andrew will get on like a house on fire!

Agree again mate

Basically, intelligence involves an understanding of abstract concepts, problems solving and spatial awareness. Theres much more to it than that but in a nutshell, there we go. Andrew's knowledge of maths would undoubtedly give him a huge advantage over Ben; who only see things from a viewpoint of personal gain and advancement.

If Ben's IQ is just a bit above average, god knows what the other HMs' IQs are, since most of them and thick as pig sh*t.

And I'm sure all the HMs are really dying to know where they stand in the popularity stakes outside the house. I wonder if the newbies will come out and tell them, because that would really put the cat among the pigeons!

The reason he hates him is cause he is a bully. Called him Stephen Hawkins as an insult! I like Stephen Hawkins!
But JJ is more of a bitch than him.

I think reason Ben doesnt like Andrew is related to his discussion a few nights ago about his friends and the parties he attends. He spoke about how he invites people who have something about them, charm or charisma etc. When he looks at Andrew I think he just sees an unattractive geeky type. Ben could be an elitist type and I am starting to be a bit wary of the "comedy legend" especially after his discussion on WWII. For all we know in RL he could be a nazi sympathiser after all.
Where did Ben the comedy legend go BB?

Ben feels a bit threatened by someone who he knows to be his intellectual superior - however geeky and naive that person might be.

Otherwise he'd just ignore Andrew.

Bit superior of you to presume you know what Ben was thinking.Ben likes Andrew,when did he say he didn't?the only one he said he wouldn't get on with is Keely,I suppose you know what Ben will have for his dinner tomorrow too.Good Lord.
