I think that I've finally figured out what Dexter is doing while in the BBH. OK, here goes.
1. He went in willing to make a fool of himself and to be disliked by the HM's. All he had to do was pray that there was a bigger twat than him and he would be safe for a week, maybe two. Luckily for him there were. Axle, Jem and Wiffy were in there and he was safe. 2. He planned his "journey". Rich, addicted, lots of women, "billy no mates" and many more. He tells everyone that he's unloved and must make amends for his bad life choices. His back story has been carefully constructed by a PR firm. Push all the right buttons and the GBP will lap it up. Get emotional. Right out of the BGT playbook. "I just want to make my mum proud". I'm surprised that his dog didn't die just before the show. 3. The final move. Get the PR people in on the show. I didn't suss this whole thing until I saw BOTP with his "friend" Claudine on the panel. She's no friend, she's a PR slug. She starts off by saying that he had no game plan. Then she said that his game plan didn't work. Then she leaves everyone hanging with "I can't tell you the reasons he went in there". Then she says "he doesn't have friends", well WTF are you then? She then goes into how he wants to make his mum proud. This woman has been hired by Dexter before the show started to be his friend. He is playing everyone. Having said that, if it works and he wins then more power to him. I just think that it's the end of BB if a group of people can alter the game to this extent from the outside. It's no longer the "social experiment" but a textbook case of how to win BB by manipulating the GBP and make loads of dosh doing it. It's been coming for some time but BB is just too happy to have the game influenced to raise the ratings, otherwise how did this PR hack get on to the show. No one else has F & F on to this extent. Well, that's my 2 pence worth. |

A lot of what you say makes sense. I would not disagree with it. It's been obvious for some time that there has been a serious game plan there. Unlike the twins who's gameplan was to win by being funny - Dexters gameplan is far more sophisticated. If he doesn't win he will have wasted far more than he wins to pay the PR company though.The thing that gives it away is the fact he was talking about the amazing journey he has been on and how BB has changed him FROM WEEK ONE!

![]() You're reading waaaaaaaay too much into a few things that have been said in passing. Very silly indeed. Sounds like something charlie would come up with on a particularly paranoid day! ![]() |

How much money do you think there is to be made after shows like this ?
Certainly not enough to make one person rich let alone a team of PR people. ![]() |

How do you know he's broke? He wouldn't have to pay the PR firm (see above). He would also know that he can't be nasty and must show compassion. Doesn't mean he isn't playing everyone. Anyway, chill, it's only a game show. |

It's true that no one can manipulate the public for that long, that's why it's not working. Just like it didn't for Richard, Ziggy, Darnell, Siavash, and John James. And with the mass public for Aaron, but his whole win is an anomaly and BB12 is barely canon so it shouldn't even be discussed.

A very interesting opening post, well set out and interesting.
I think you have made some really good observations and very valid points. Especially as to his so called friend on bbbots. She was as you point out, full of contradictions and I am surprised at the different people we have had on as to Dexter too to be honest. Really interesting and well presented are your points and they do make you think. |

http://www.dexterkoh.com/earth-horse-pr/ I especially like the line "As a young boy I was always interested in mastering the art of media manipulation and the dark arts of “PR”." and "Not being afraid to put myself in the spotlight has been the key to cracking the media code and understanding the right time to “Spin & and make it a win.”". His words, not mine. Last edited by Uvam Acerbam; 06-08-2013 at 08:32 AM. |

Well written thread OP, with some very valid points
I quite like Dexter, but can see he's playing a very good game. At the end if the day, he's in PR and is a natural gambler. What you have written makes absolute sense. But I think things haven't gone quite to plan with people pulling strings on the outside, and so they've pulled back his mum into the loop to make the public warm and glowey inside... With her not going back abroad but to watch and support his "journey" every step of the way - she has no PR skills, so can be seen as being genuine and honest You can't underestimate the guy, he's a very very clever chap and you can see the cogs in his brain working continuously in every step he makes in there

who gives a chit what his gameplan is, he's playing a fabulous game and the best, most watchable housemate ever for me. He's taken a a lot of crap from the rest of the housemates all through the series, many in his situation would have walked by now, good on him if he goes on to win and I hope he does.
