This time yesterday, Bear was fave to win.

Now he is 2nd with Ricky overtaking him, and Bear is still lengthening with Renee shortening and looking close to overtake him now.

Also he went from 26/1 to go yesterday before the show and is now 16/1 to go. Happened to do the opposite that people expected.

Yes so far I've voted for Sam and Ricky think James might be the strategic vote !Maybe the Lewis and James scenario to be evicted may not happen!

Bear only has himself to blame. If he'd shown one scrap of remorse for his cheating it would be a different picture today. I get the feeling that he is someone who never says sorry and will pass the blame every time. He was given the chance to show some decency and blew it.

Has the final happened?

I missed it.

No, the result the BB producers wanted was to get Bear out, they literally tampered with the results of the whole show inorder to get bear out ..it will come back to haunt them ...they can no longer state that they never try and influence the vote

the BB producers have completely made a ass out of themselves with this blatantly obvious stunt

I have an ongoing dislike for Bear, but I was surprised at how he tried to make it his girlfriends fault. I thought a little bit of remorse would have helped him a bit. I don't know if his girlfriend was completely sincere, but I do see that his very public actions were humiliating.

Anything can happen in big brother , one episode can evict or keep a housemate
early days
I want bear to win as he has played the game
too many people in that house coasting sam rick james , lewis is just a pleb
I am ok with renee when she is not swearing
Katie could do it she is doing really well at the moment

..... honestly! The apologists are out I see.

Ive come round to this way of thinking now..........Bear will get a good edit tonight

If he come over all remorseful it would have worked, but trying to point the blame at his now ex girlfriend made him look an absolute b*****d.

To be fair, cheating on your girlfriend has never been a winning strategy no matter what stunts BB pulls out of the bag.

Ricky though ..... how? Why? Baffled!

I agree.

I think they've GIVEN Bear the golden opportunity to be all crushed, to have a 'good think', to 'realise the error of his ways', to 'repent' and to 'redeem' himself.

Trouble is Bear is a KNOB - so he's acted callously and then blamed the girlfriend.

However there will be a few things he'll say which can be taken a bit more kindly (even though that's probably not how he meant it) and they'll TRY and cobble something together.

He may actually even TWIG today and 'get with the program'.

And the others seem to be lining up to be 'kind'.

So with some massive HELP, Bear might STILL be perceived as at least a bit LESS of a knob than he is.

That'll do.

Made me laugh though - he's not just a KNOB he's really massively stupid.

I'd like him to go but don't think he will. He's got his redemption arc to complete next week.

I think BB were trying to push for Bear to get sympathy yesterday, when most people watching saw him for the lowlife he is.

No - It is still a way to go in the Bear Cycle ..... Bear Redemption, Bear Playing Nicely, Bear Making Tea, Bear making Pancakes etc

Culminating in the 'I came in a boy but will be leaving a man' speech.

Oh yes - that's the final salute !

ETA
Ahhh ....And so it begins : The Bear Redemption Cycle has begun in earnest ...

Exactly. I can't believe that people think that there is any sort of push for Bear to be the winner.

He was even mentioned on The Wright Stuff as being the probable winner, by that guy who does what's on the Tv slot.

Oh I agree that he will probably win - but I don't believe that was the intention. The intention was that he was the biggest character, the drama, the one to make things happen, to get people talking, to cause some outrage. But winning? Not so much.

All that happened was bear started to calm down so the producers pulled a stunt to stir things up again.
That was just BB production prodding the Bear to up his game.
If the girlfriend was really upset she woudnt have gone anywhere near the house - its all pantomime , its a gameshow.

This is the chance to get rid of Bear and Lewis together. Lewis is gone and people need to vote for Ricky, Sam and James!

Bear out tonight! I would laugh my socks off!

Yes I'm voting for Ricky and Sam tonight, I might even throw a few James' way too!

that would be brilliant!
