Even as awful as he was Bear won as he had no strong opposition once Biggins was deliberately kicked out of the house. Ricky et al had no personas, no attributes in own right to root for other than supposedly being anti Bear. In the end Bear's win was inevitable and not an outage as none of the others did anything of note to challenge the prospect of a Bear win. 90% of their time was spent reacting to or talking about Bear.

I wanted someone to emerge to pull focus from Bear and entertain but no one did. Ricky's po-faced refusal to get involved and complete task ultimately cost him votes which might have edged him past Bear. Ricky blew it. In the last 10 days the only memorable thing that didn't involve him were Katie's "wow wow wow" unstable spat with Frankie and Marnie fellating a banana. Sad times.
