True! Although I'm Irish so it's better than having them butcher Irish names!

If Bear's in there it doesn't matter who else is. He'll do exactly as he did over the last month. Everyone else will be fighting for the remaining 10 minutes of screen time per night.
Yeah it would be a mistake to put him back in and I don't know what they would hope to achieve as it would defeat the whole idea of an all-stars series.

Not really, he was this years most talked about housemate and he won so of course he will be top of the list. I think it would be good to see him with some other big characters, maybe it will be more balanced this time.

People are talking about Pete Burns like he is some sort of god who will destroy Bear. I very highly doubt it.

Exactly. It was a long time ago since he was in CBB. He's probably mellowed with age.

It's up to the show makers how balanced it is.

But I think Bear would be all out of ideas in any case. There is practically nothing to work with apart from food which is communal - he never went for people's personal possessions - and I think he has exhausted the repertoire this series.

I think 'Big' characters may go in there knowing that Bear will also be in the house, knowing that / thinking that they can deal with him, and that would be quite amusing to see, but it wouldn't be worth a whole series.

They would have to edit a better show than this last one.

I can say ive never missed a series of BB yet , even though in the last years it has been painful to watch , but i can catagorically state if Bear is in the next series , i definitely won't be watching .

His behaviour has been condoned by the producers and the voting public , he'll think that thats what he's there for and his behaviour will be ramped up tenfold .


No matter how big the other personalities are we won't get to see them , it'll be back to the same old tag line on BOTS that the rest are boring .


There's no way i could put myself through that again .

Why??

It was very far from a landslide win anyway.

Whether he won or not, he was the star of the show.

As much as I'd love to see a bear vs Pete burns, Hopkins, Louisa and Perez showdown. ..you know that bear would spend all his time waving his hands in the air to get them removed

because of the producers. 'Star' might be pushing it, 'focus' would fit better for about 80% of people here.

I really hope the rest of the returning celebs say they wont go in if he is ,
they re going to know in advance he will waste the coffee and the food supplies in the name of entertainment . They also know he will trounce any bit of camera time they might get ,
There's just nothing you can do with people like that .

Perhaps the 'huge twist' will be to actually have celebrities in there. Not the reality show non-entities that hardly anyone has heard of.

Nah, no chance.

Some previous celebs had their own rooms so how many of them could be accommodated?

Not for me , he ruined the series for me .
I'm not entertained watching people sittting on edge , having " pranks " played on them by people who intention is to humiliate .

He sucked the life from most of the cast this year .

I could n't believe i was rooting for Frankie this year as i disliked him with a passion on BBUS.
Whether Frankie learnt lessons from BBUS or it was a Frankie - Lite because of the overbearing presence of bear we'll never know .

There was a similarity in Bear and Frankie in that we learnt practically nothing about them, as they were both 'in character' the whole time and barely let their guard down for a moment. While Bear was doing his shtick, Frankie was in entertainment mode.

They both must have been exhausted by the end of it.

I'd like to be a fly on the wall chez Bear / Frankie, and see what they're like slobbing out on the sofa with a couple of beers watching shit TV.

The 'huge twist' is that actually the Ch5 bosses will be trapped in the house for 6 weeks with Bear.

Give them a taste of what they have condoned.

If this is true, this is probably why Ch5 wanted Bear to win. Despite Ch5 denying the fix romour, it is so clear to me they wanted him to win. The constant final warning's were a joke.

I think the trend was started by unmarried mothers who'd give the last name of the baby's father to their child as a first name - even if it was a girl.

Girls called James? Is that common/current trend in the US?

The difference is Frankie was making people happy (apparently, we weren't allowed to see that) and Stephen was making them miserable (which we saw a lot of but not all of it apparently)

"Despite the dramatic series Friday’s final pulled in just 1.7m viewers – one of the lowest ever - so producers reportedly want to do everything in their power to shake things up."


What a load of tw*ts. They still don't get that that's NOT what we want. LOOK AT THE VIEWING FIGURES. We don't WANT sh*t thrown at people, we want fun.
Listen to Emma if not us!
