He's been slowly creeping up and has been 2nd favourite for some time but Ricky has just managed to hold him off but Bear's just taken over and his odds are still shortening while the others are drifting.

Stephen Bear 5/2
Ricky Norwood 10/3
Samantha Fox 6/1
Renee Graziano 8/1
Frankie Grande 15/2
James Whale 8/1
Marnie Simpson 12/1
Aubrey ODay 33/1
Katie Waissel 40/1
Heavy D 50/1
Lewis Bloor 50/1

Frankie should be a place higher up that list at 15/2.

So six of the first seven should make the final.

I still think marnies odds are quite generous and the others probably should have evicted her over Chloe.

Don't think Sam fox will be anywhere near the top 3

Yeah, I've just copied & pasted the list and the 1st column of odds from Oddschecker but they make up their order from loads of different bookies.

He's been the producers favourite for a lot longer.

And if Marnie's the one to miss out Bear's opponents will split the anti-squad vote 5 ways.

He may be Viacom's favourite but the producers don't seem very friendly disposed towards him in the DR.

I haven't watched it in a few days but they seemed very tame by comparison to the other HMs when I was still watching.

Also, I'd argue that many other HMs would have been thrown out by now.

That's the scenario although I think both marnie and bear will be in the final which the non squad supporting housemates should probably wish for as it gives a chance of reality vote split

Although those who like American housemates may split their vote too.

The vote to win as always is very different from a vote to save or evict in a regular eviction

Why on earth is he so popular? He is a nightmare.

There are people who find as*holes entertaining. I don't really think there's anything wrong with that. Personally, I find that behaviour irritating and not entertaining. I'm not a "love to hate" viewer and I liked BB because it was a chance to observe people which I found fascinating. The whole baiting thing, to me, is just like internet trolling. It's dumb and so obvious it's boring to me.

Ever day he does something that could get him thrown out. I wouldn't mind betting that the producers will do it towards the very end. If they don't, then they may lose the prospect of having any "big-ish" names in the future. Wonder if Emma has any influence too?

I remember Marc in civilian BB being favourite at one time

There's time for things to change and he is such a polarising character that I can imagine voters ganging up on him and voting against him when their favourites leaves.

Certainly not someone who has ruined the experience of watching it.

Yeah gotta agree with you. Its just been the Bear show, with the throwing of food daily and constant winding up, it really got tiresome after day 3 and without him it would have been good to see the dynamics change in the house but we never got the chance.

Hughie was favourite to win as well with the bookies, look what happened there. The bookies have gotten it wrong many times when it comes to BB/CBB.

He'd be challenging Helen as the worst winner of all time.

I wouldn't be surprised if he's removed though. Doesn't Ex on the Beach start soon? He's served his purpose.
