TV fans vow to 'never watch again' after drama makes controversial twist
Viewers have turned on The Bear as the critically acclaimed drama returned to Disney Plus for its fourth season, amid the continued presence of one particular character. As the third episode of the latest series played out, Carmen 'Carmy' Berzatto (Jeremy Allen White) issued an apology to old flame Claire Dunlap (Molly Gordon). In this moment, the show revisited one of its more memorable episodes – Carmy being locked in the fridge during a nightmare shift at the restaurant. In scenes which first aired in Series Two, Carmy had driven away Claire (on the outside of the fridge), by ranting that his relationship with her was distracting him from his restaurant duties. It took two more seasons after that, but Carmy finally apologised to Claire for his behaviour in the fridge, albeit very clumsily. However, the decision to revisit the events of this episode has alienated some fans, many of whom have reached their limit with Carmy and Claire. Writing on X as these scenes aired, some viewers shared their dismay at the emphasis on the star-crossed lovers. 'I can't bring myself to watch season 4 of The Bear. Claire ruined the show for me,' wrote kimseokjinsday1. 'Honestly, they could've never written another word about Claire in the script of the bear and I would have been totally okay with that,' said draft_x_. 'Why is claire still on s4 of the bear like wrap it up,' begged bloodrinkcheri. 'I turned off the bear szn 4 as soon as i saw claire,' said mags_pdf. This backlash marks a continued downward trend for the once universally beloved drama – Series One of which still holds a 100% 'fresh' rating on Rotten Tomatoes. The second series, by contrast, remains nearly as highly-rated, at 99%. This was followed by a respectable 89% for Series Three, and a lower 82% for Series Four. While most still recognised it as 'the best series on television,' its detractors have called out its lack of focus and slow pacing – especially compared to the more breakneck, panic-inducing earlier seasons. 'The Bear's failure to pick up the pace in a meaningful way this season has soured things,' wrote The Ringer, while Digital Mafia Talkies described it as 'really bad.' own Sabrina Barr was more positive, praising its character progression and, in particular, an episode co-written by star Ayo Edebiri. With all ten episodes of the show now streaming, viewers have been tuning in (and out) to make up their own minds, contributing to a 70% positive audience score on the review aggregator. The complicated relationship between Carmy and Claire may have proved controversial onscreen but, behind the scenes, their chemistry is going from strength to strength. More Trending Last year, Carmy and Claire stars Jeremy and Molly were spotted in a steamy clinch on the street – seemingly confirming rumours that they had begun dating. This came in the wake of his split from Spanish singer-songwriter Rosalia, who he is believed to have dated from 2023 to 2024. View More » The Bear season 4 is available to stream on Disney Plus.

The Traitors winner Harry Clark reveals exactly how he spent his £95,000 prize pot from the show
The Traitors winner Harry Clark has revealed exactly how he spent his £95,000 prize pot from the show. The TV star, 24, bagging the whole prize pot for himself in 2024 after deceiving his fellow contestants right until the very end. But the former Army helicopter engineer has remained humble despite his huge winnings - not having spent any of the money on himself yet. He told The Telegraph of what he's done with his winnings: 'I paid of my mum and dad's small debts and the rest of the money is in a high interest investment account which has just been building up. 'I also took everyone, seven of us, on holiday to Portugal; my family hadn't been away since 2010. 'It was probably the first moment after the show that I patted myself on the back. We're going back to the exact same place this year - only this time, there will be 13 of us.' Harry, a former Army lance corporal still lives in his family's three-bedroom council house in Slough, Berkshire and has no current plans to move out. The Series Two winner previously opened up about struggling with his mental health after finding fame on the BBC show. The British Army engineer told the Monday Mile Podcast with Aimee Fuller, 'It's so weird, my life's been very 50/50, the whole way through.' 'I mean, there's obviously good and bad to it. The bad probably from the four months, and that the success of the show is probably losing myself a little bit.' 'Obviously, a council kid from Slough, I go to these events, you finish a drink, or you finish a glass of Prosecco, soon as you finish it, you get another one in your hand.' 'And then I'm looking around to pay the bill, and there's no one to pay. So I've just been making the most out of it for four months.' 'So I lost my training, and I sort of lost myself a little bit mentally, but just carried on working and now I'm sort of finding that balance.' Harry won The Traitors' £95,000 prize last January after deceiving his fellow contestants, including Faithful runner-up Mollie Pierce. He quickly became a fan favourite on the reality programme hosted by Claudia Winkleman due to his warm and cheeky chappy personality. However, this was a far cry from how he felt in the years leading up to the show, and Harry admitted he previously hit 'rock bottom'. He said: 'At around 21, I went through a bad time. I was in the darkest place you could possibly be.' 'I had feelings of wanting to end it all. I was quite an angry kid. But the Army moulded my characteristics and made me the man I am today.' 'I began facing my emotions and learned to give myself time to be angry and sad. I started to set myself time limits to process my feelings. Afterwards, I'd tell myself I couldn't waste any more time being angry or upset.' 'I had a realisation that time is the most important thing and I didn't want to waste it. In the Army, I was that guy people would talk to. All I want to do is help. It's a lonely world and it's easy to be blinded by mental health.' Reflecting on his The Traitors win, Harry said he was still working when it aired but has since quit the army. A constant in his rise to success has been his girlfriend Anna, sister of popstar Conor Maynard, whom he began dating in April 2022. Harry's series of The Traitors won the National Television Award for best reality competition, beating the likes of The Apprentice, Celebrity Big Brother, Love Island and Race Across the World.
