I am glad that my morals make me have so much more respect for a decent human being like Ricky, than for a bunch of immature, talentless and bullying nobodies who will disappear into obscurity after their 15 minutes of fame.

People are describing Ricky as boring, but the obnoxious and disgusting behaviour of Bear, Lewis and Marnie is not funny or entertaining, unless you have the mindset of a 13 year old. Their ridiculous behaviour is, in fact, what is boring so many, and what is making so many want to switch off after watching every series of BB and CBB since the show began.

The reason Ricky isn't standing up to Bear isn't because he is 'decent' or 'mature', it's because he's scared of him

I can assure you if Bear was a skinny weakling, Ricky would have been in his face shouting him down a long time ago. But because Ricky is the ultimate BETA male there's no way he would ever confront a guy like Bear who will best him both physically and verbally

Ricky is a spineless, boring little git.

Oh, really!? On what evidence are you basing this then?

And I guess anyone with even an ounce of intelligence would feel a little wary of an unpredictable, volatile and mindless thug like Bear! They'd have to be pretty stupid not to really!

And if you want to admire and support someone who could 'beat' someone 'both physically and verbally' I actually pity you. If that's your idea of how you measure someone's worth then that's your choice, but personally I have much more respect for the man who has the intelligence not to indulge in such primal behaviour, and the man who has the courage to walk away.

And, finally, the only way Bear could beat Ricky verbally is by shouting loudly over him, as the rubbish that comes out of his mouth would hardly do it!! He is unable to hold an intelligent conversation, and his words have no more meaning than grunts, whereas Ricky had shown repeatedly that he is extremely insightful, can have very intellectual discussions, and can express himself very effectively! And anyone with a brain cell would find that more interesting than someone who can only speak through their fists.

Here's to the power and skill of using intelligence over mindless thuggery!

As you said yourself, what evidence are you basing this on? All I've seen him do is talk about Bear. In the garden or in the diary room. Sooo insightful and intellectual.

He's avoiding direct confrontation with Bear, but is quick to talk **** about him behind his back to other housemates and in the diary room. When Bear shows up however he goes quiet and is too scared to say a word. How can you respect that?

We need BB to put Ricky in a situation where he's FORCED to speak his mind in front of others as opposed to only the girls

Of course in real life Ricky is doing the mature, sensible thing but this is a game show and Ricky is too scared to get involved because he knows Bear will shut him down (using volume or otherwise). He is letting down the CBB viewers big time by doing NOTHING of consequence whatsoever. Dullest housemate in history - the house wouldn't miss him

Only on this site could someone being genuinely nice and sticking out of petty, childish arguments with an overgrown manbaby, could be disliked for that reason, let the man live fgs, he's not a snake, he just doesn't want to get bogged down in all of Bear's overly aggressive cliquey drama ****.

Exactly!

I like Ricky and he has taken action a couple of times, talking to Heavy D about his treatment of Chloe and coming out to herd Heavy D to the diary room after the altercation with Lewis. I don't think he has to be in your face aggressive to be likeable or to be a decent, adult man.

Kathy Beale gave someone a blow job in a car on the hard shoulder and I don't think she was high! Phil Mitchell goes dogging. People have done worse things and been forgiven. I don't think what he did was all that bad. Perhaps he thought he could trust the person he was camming with.

We all liked Jason and he dated Charlie. Case rested.

There's nothing wrong with smoking a bit of pot, he's not hurting or offending anyone else & it doesn't determine whether hes a nice or horrible person either, but the quotes about him do "They said: 'He has been great to have around and a decent bloke to have on set.'"

and?

a bit of pot and a wank?

how about bear's vid of his complete with anal play? his systemic girlfriend-cheating? his aggressive behaviour and language warranting a final warning and overnight stay in a separate room to the other hms?

i'll take ricky over him, or lewis, or most anyone else in that shambles of a house right now

lmao Bear was literally caught finger diving himself love

BIG difference being Bear doesn't pretend to be a saint, what you see is what you get ..so your come back is meaningless

[billy123]

Desperate times chuff desperate times. Keep trying love.

[caprimint]

Bear knows his 'nice guy' act is all fake as hell.

[BBG]

Ricky has been out-alpha'd by the rest of the males in the house, hence why he's fallen into this role of mousey type who hangs out with the girls all day

The guy is a sissy and one of the dullest housemates in the show's history. Can anyone name ONE interesting thing he's done? Boring as ****
