Pick of the day
But, despite all that, the live final of any CBB always makes excellent telly, thanks to its unpredictable and raucous nature.
Yes, this series has been particularly suspect when it comes to that celeb tag. It’s full of people who have made their “names” on a host of other reality TV shows and who your average man and woman in the street wouldn’t have been able to pick out of a line-up. And probably still couldn’t.
The more well-known names in the house didn’t last long – with Christopher Biggins’ removal being among the notable early incidents.
Instead, viewers have been kept entertained by reality rejects with a penchant for getting their clothes off, staging showmances in showers and engaging in explosive rows – all of which have involved a certain Stephen Bear (an Ex On The Beach “star”, apparently).
And despite seeming to be one of the most hated housemates ever, the unbearable Bear is still in there, and is even tipped to win.
Bear is accompanied by disgraced EastEnder Ricky Norwood, Geordie Shore babe Marnie Simpson, and Americans Renee Graziano, Aubrey O’Day and Frankie Grande (popstar Ariana’s brother).
But love it or hate it, there’s few reality show finals that are as competitive, unpredictable and straight up catty as this one.
So sit back, get comfy and watch as the sparks start to fly!
