Two reasons I expect,

1) He is not Bear

2) He is American

Both of these he should be incredibly thankful for lol

He would be a good bet. I see him as a compromise winner. Not dull and not spiteful.

I'd love him to win! He's my favourite this series.

They just haven't shown enough of him. I seriously doubt he's spent the whole show being boring, not performing - we've seen him perform on live feed, amuse the people in the bedroom with his skits, his humour, I imagine he's kept that group entertained the whole time.

The focus hasn't been on the 'other' housemates though and, much as people keep saying they are boring - how would we know. We haven't been given the opportunity to decide that for ourselves.

In a house without Bear I could well imagine Frankie would have been the life and soul.

I can see him in the top three with Ricky and Sam, not sure he has the fan base to win, but as most of us have realised, who wins, Channel 5 decides.

amazing how a lack of live streaming and a good edit can do for some housemates......

I don't watch the live feed but from what I have seen of him on the HL shows I really like him.

It's a shame the producers haven't shown more of him in the HL. I'm sure he would be a lot more popular if viewers had been given the chance to see more of him.

Even one hour a night (most nights) has made a huge difference for me, seeing so much more than we ever see on the highlights.

More of the kind of thing that entertains me, that is, the kind of thing I watch BB for.

We could say that about all of them, considering we've watched them for 4 weeks I know nothing about most of them, including Bear! (I mean nothing as in who they are as people, their lives, etc.). Considering the long days they spend in there and the amount of talking they must do, how much they have all got to know each other, we - the audience - have been privy to none of that.

I agree Muggins
Doing his "i'm All Natural" skit in the bedroom is the only time I have laughed out loud all this season
I looked forward to seeing it again the next night on HL show,but again Bear wasn't in the bedroom so it wasn't shown

Yes I was most irked by this myself

I was all geared up to hate him after the snippets I'd read about him prior to launch night. I was beyond horrified when I landed him in the sweepstake (and how everyone laughed ) but he has been the most pleasant surprise and it's a crying shame that once again the producers have allowed a small portion of the housemates to dominate the entire show and the highlights. It's about time they gave a fair and balanced representation of all of them!

(Hope you're feeling better today Missy! x)

I agree with all of you at one time e he was third favourite but since Renee rose up after being feisty and I don't dislike her at all!
Also Marnie's shot up after Lewis left!
It could all change again !
There are a few of on here that like him.I didn't expect to .There's an appreciation thread for him today 😊

The I'm all natural skit had me laughing so much - perhaps more than it would have normally because there's been so little laughter this year. If he's been like that in the bedroom the whole time and we've not seen it all, I feel there's a whole other show we've not seen at all!

Yes I think you are right, even James when he left mentioned things that happened that we didn't see on HL's, If Bear wasn't in the room it didn't get aired

be very glad that he isn't being shown to his full potential on live feed for a change as he was unbearable to watch on BBUS
