That scripted scene with his ex has maintained interest in Stephen Bear!
With Chloe's eviction his star was on the wane. Had his daddy come in, it would have been boring pats on the backs or hype to keeping up the food destruction and vandalism. All of which are now very stale and old. Now he's in the tabloid hype of all hypes, a love triangle!!!!
I can't bear this contrived nonsense but enjoy being outraged by it.

...she probably just wanted to be 'dumped' in private as well, Vanessa and not like this...Bear's terms/Bear's world...

Well he said it's a game and he hated people coasting, it's his turn to have a bad week just as he's made everyone in there have a bad few weeks.

She probably would have prefered to be dumped in private not on national tv.

He should have waited until after the show, I agree.

Ammi bossing this thread though :flutter:

Surprised she didn't tell him she was pregnant, keep the bear drama rolling

If he goes I'm not watching anymore. Most of that lot have coasted and done nothing to deserve winning. Bear has given every and more. Apart from Rene, who I think has contributed a lot.

so have we officially reached the "fans of the odds-on favorite to win who is an airtime vacuum come up with conspiracy theories as to why the show wants him to lose even though it's not even remotely true" point of the series?

Not sure if they want him gone Vanessa but I would think they will be glad when this series is over and only the next week to go now too.

The kind of expected Champion, Biggins, had to be thrown out although the viewers still really have not seen in full the complete conversations that led to that.
It appears on watching that more final warnings have been issued than in any other series.
Yet housemates are still just getting talked to on incidents.

Others BB likely thought would be prominent in the series, have been massive let downs, such as Ricky and Sam Fox.

Bear has been able to capture airtime by always doing something, whether it is good or bad.
Lewis and Marnie have provided the usual showmance for BB to spend a lot of highlights time on too.
Which is why those 3 in particular have been able to dominate the highlights, which are not chosen by themselves to be shown but only by BB themselves.

If BB want Bear out now as you suspect and you may be right, it may be to create a more seemingly harmonious end to the series in the last week or so, where BB needs to do little and the viewers can either be pleased to see a bit more of the rest of them, or like I would be, likely bored to death by some of the remaining figures in there.

It is BBs interference in noms, evictions and the manipulation of 'visitors' to the series that ruins the series, not often the housemates themselves.

Sadly until BB starts to again take a back seat on oversee natural developing proceedings rather than set them up,then all we will get are the louder more active characters in the highlights.
This series has gone the way BB allowed it to,no one else, and Bear has been able to use that to his advantage so far,so good luck to him.

If he goes they will lose a lot of viewers, because they're clearly manipulating things.

I'd rather a bore win than someone who cheats on national tv like its nothing, a cheater is bad enough, but to do it in that environment where you know your girlfriend (who you seem to be so in love with) is watching along with millions of others knowing you have that girlfriend, young or not, he should grow some ****ing decency, if I did that to a partner on national tv, I'd deserve the ****storm that he deserves.

It's all scripted nonsense, I don't buy any of it.

I get the feeling the producers think the same, they're basically making it 'The Bear Show'... which probably shows that they really don't want him to be evicted.

They all ready losing viewers with him in it correct?

BB have obv decided to shaft him ... They created their own mess and now they don't want to own it ... Damage limitation at the eleventh hour ....better be on the safe side and have a wholesome winner to represent their rapidly ailing show.
I wonder if the very many people who cry ' it's a fix, it's a fix ' all the time, will be absolutely fine about this fix.... I'm guessing they will.
Myself I couldn't care less about any of the tedious relationships these people have in or out of the house, any of them, I'm only interested in being entertained by housemates inside the walls of the big brother house.
If I wanted to go on some moral crusade I would use my time giving my advice to real people I care about not reality TV con artists.
Bear has been the best housemate this year IMO and that is the reason I vote for him.

Then they should have sent his family in and not his ex. I find it unfair that all the others got family and he was the only one who didn't. So if he goes they have themselves to blame.

They will lose more if he goes.

He got his girlfriend! Not BB's fault that he decided to be a cheating scumbag on national tv is it?

So why not send other housemates exes? They wouldn't have liked it either.

It's not his fault, he's the obvious victim here :idc:

Sam's is dead, how inconsiderate Vanessa :fist:

:joker:

Big Brother want him out, so they will give him the worse edit they can. They know that one bad show can be enough to get someone evicted.

In addition to the hypocrisy of the endless ' it's a fix, it's s fix ' brigade I also notice the immediate disappearance of the Bully Police too...
I call that Convenient Morals ... Reminds me of The Church
