Last night Marco was the third person to be evicted from the House. This morning he was ushered to his press conference and we went along to see what he had to say.

Press: Did you know how much had gone on between Michelle and Stuart and how far do you think they will go?

Marco: I knew what had gone on between them because obviously I'm quite close to Michelle. I don't think it'll go any further in the House but I think it will develop into a relationship outside the House.

Press: I've been watching the House very closely and ...are you gay?!

Marco: (Large amounts of seal laughter) I'm not answering any personal questions!

Press: What do you plan to do now you've left the House, a career in the Media?

Marco: Not really. I'm gonna go back to Uni...if anything comes along, I'd be an idiot to say no...otherwise I'll try and get back to normality.

Press: How's your mum?!

Marco: (More laughter) She's recovered, but she's got a bruise on her leg! We just had a laugh about it.

Press: What's your opinion of Ahmed?

Marco: Um...I take everything Ahmed says with a pinch of salt. I'm not too concerned.

Press: Were you surprised that Shell voted for you?

Marco: I was quite surprised. I do feel that there are a lot of game players in the House and a lot of people saw what sort of conflicts were arising in the House and would vote accordingly.


Press: How did you feel when Becki came into the House?

Marco: A bit confused. I tried to greet her as well as I could...but I see through her now... She's plastic.

Press: Nadia...a bit of a shock to you last night?

Marco: Yeah!

Press: Did you not twig at all?

Marco: Yeah I did. The first day when I walked in I thought wow, I wonder if that's...and then I felt really guilty...I was like 'oh my god, this wonderful person who I've met, she couldn't possibly be!' For the past few days me and Michelle have been like 'shall we tell her what we thought?' It's strange because now I think back perhaps she was trying to tell me something.

Press: Did you know that the other housemates dubbed her your bodyguard?

Marco: No. That's fine...she was!

Press: Who do you think will win and who do you want to win?

Marco: I'd like Nadia to win. Stuart's very popular in the House, I don't know how he's perceived outside. And obviously I get on really well with Michelle and outside of that I don't care.

Who's got the most disgusting habit in the House?

Marco: Jason does fart a lot, doesn't he?!

Press: What's your opinion of Victor?

Marco: I really do get on with Victor. He's my friend. I think we have mutual respect for each other.

Press: What was your best moment in the House?

Marco: The Food fights... The drama...but I regret throwing up on the roundabout.
