Britain's Next Bear Model - On Steve Share, RSS
Sunday, November 30, 2008

Now that Britain's Next Bear Model is over (articles), the winner has been announced, what you need to do is get yourself a copy of the DVD (cover). What you will be getting is all of the episodes edited together into a 60 minute feature (with no teases nor credits apart from those at the end of the show).

As a bonus, you will also get a 12 minute feature called 'Bears on Bears'. This is where they talk in the 'diary room' to all of the contestants, and the contestants talk about the other contestants. Maker Jonathan Robinson  (websiteprofile) states that he expects to get a few irate emails from some of the guys once they see that! You can get an idea of what this 'Bears on Bears' is going to look like from this preview on Jonathan's YouTube channel.

Also, Jonathan sent in this to PlanetBears: On Steve. It's only 40 seconds but it's a hoot. Personally, I really liked Steve. I was hoping to see him make it to the top 3 (my choice would have been Sean, Steve and either Leopold or Kris... with Sean most likely winning... however that's not how it ended up, now did it). Anyhow, the diary section looks great.

Lastly - more photos.

Jonathan Robinson (website - YouTube - profile) ~ the man responsible for the smash series 'Britain's Next Bear Model' ~ is informing us that the DVD is now available (cover) and you can purchase here (via Paypal). Also, there's a DVD giveaway ~ check out this video from Jonathan for all the details.

It's been a wild ride yet the truly entertaining Britain's Next Bear Model series has come to an end. The 3 finalists were Alan, Raff and Sean... and I think everyone thought that Sean with his classic Bearish looks was going to win yet it was Raff with his sultry accent and killer smile who was crowned as the very first Mr. Bear Model. A lot of the guys who participated were seriously cute, however it was us that voted for who we wanted, and Raff came out top.

Here at PlanetBears, we've have been following the show since it's inception. If you missed any of our articles, then click here. We've also received quite a few photos from Jonathan which were included with some of the articles (photo set #1 - photo set #2 - photo set #3).

It's down to the wire and only 3 contestants are left in 'Britain's Next Bear Model', and those 3 Bears would be Alan, Raff and Steve. We found this out in the latest show - Episode 7 - Part A - and we will find out the grand winner in Part B of Episode 7 which they will be airing this weekend (I believe).

However, I've got an inside tip already... one of them has been knocked out of the race, leaving only 2. Who was cut...? Sadly It was Alan (he was so funny... and raunchy). So now the race is on between Raff and Steve.

Want to see some more fantastic shots of these incredible men? Well then click here. There's 2 sets of photos - one set is the 3 finalists playing around at the office (you see a short clip of that in Episode 7), and there's another set of photos of the 2 finalists together. Lastly, here is an excellent Safe Sex Guide pamphlet which includes photos of the final 3 (it's in .pdf format and it's shy 20mb). Remember, you can download all of the episodes of 'Britain's Next Bear Model' in high resolution over at FunFur.tv.

Here at PlanetBears, we've been following the news on what's been going on with the new series 'Britain's Next Bear Model' - just check out these articles, however the following is a press release from the makers of the show:

"Standby for Action! ManBears and Funfur.tv have launched 'Britain's Next Bear Model'. Anything can happen in the next six weeks, as you decide who's a top in the grizzliest competition ever. See the 8 hairy finalists (photo) as they get to know each other, living, sleeping and playing together in the world’s first Bear reality TV series, facing some hair-raising challenges, some close shaves and… Netty!

To view the first episode please visit Jonathan Robinson's YouTube page. Nothing will go unnoticed nor unpunished as our cameras track their every movement, growl, grope, slurp and snog 24/7. From modeling to pasty eating, from banoffee pie to leather, our Bears will have to play hard in this Grrrrruelling contest, in order to win your votes.

Broadcasting on YouTube, Funfur.tv and EuroWoof, voting commences on October 5th, with an accumulating score for each of our eight finalists. The winner will be announced on November 9th and will receive a big cash prize, with their hairy chest splashed across a magazine cover. Only one will be crowned Britain's Next Bear Model. Let the battle commence!

Gerard Gudgion of ManBears said: 'As far as I know this is a world first for a group like ours to produce and promote a reality series. For the first time I think people are going to be able to see beyond the body shape of Bears and get a real understanding of Bear culture'.

Jonathan Robinson of Funfur.tv said: 'I've worked on big reality TV before such as 'I'm A Celebrity…', but nothing beats this competition for excitement and generating opinion. Seeing the first comments on Youtube shows what diversity the 8 contestants offer!'.

In conjunction is EuroWoof and the Manchester Bears ManBears who have also been contributing to this fun show.

Right now we're still getting to know the 8 contestants as they all bunk up in a flat together. There's little romances forming here and there, all the while we're hearing touches of gossip. Remember - these men are there to win and to be the very first Bear Model.

How this works is that you watch the shows and you vote for your favourite contestant. In a few weeks, 3 will be chosen to move on to the finals. It's great fun as these cute Bearish men rival, and some of these guys are superbly cute.

Last week we told you about a new show called 'Britain's Next Bear Model' (article) which consists of 8 guys living in the same room as they compete to be UK's newest Bear model.

In episode #1, we got to meet 5 of the 8 contestants, and even though I try to remain as biased as possible, I did slip in that I thought Steve was cute (well, so is Alan... and so is Kris... however Steve definitely wins the Daddy Bear vote). Well in the newest episode (#2), the final 3 competitors have entered, and say hello to Raff (woof) Leopold (double woof) Sean (triple woof). Yes, Sean is now a new favourite of mine... however it's not up to me who is going to win this thing, it's up to you.

You need to head on over to either EuroWoof (you need to register) or even better, just head on over to the FunFur.tv forum (no registration needed) and cast your vote on who you think should first make it to the top 3 to finally down to #1. This is episode 2 out of 7, so keep watching as things begin to heat up now that all the cuteys are together.

In any account, this looks it's going to be one excellent show to watch.

1st off, they have a video of some Bears and Cubs wrestling in the nude after oiling themselves up. All this in front of a huge crowd. 2ndly, they have added pics from the Great British Bear Bash... check out their Forum section. Also in the Forum section, there's new stories for you to peruse.

Friday, March 7, 2008

It's 'Hair Today' and 'Furgotten Tomorrow'... why do I say that...? Because it's time to tune in to the latest and greatest by my favourite British director Jonathan Robinson as he's just released his newest film entitled - James Bear 007 - Furgotten Tomorrow.

This 15 minute movie is packed with action, intrigue, espionage, revenge and even bondage. James Bear is on a mission with his trusty sidekick as he tries to find out who zipper-face is and to stop his evil plots. James Bear confronts a really big Asian guy (and I think this is the same actor they've used in the real James Bond movies because he sure looks like him), and the big Asian Bear has a a deadly flying hat, a couple of goons and some super cool karate moves... you need to see all this to understand.

Jonathan Robinson has been making some excellent 'Bear' movies. You can check them all out over at his FunFur.tv site - and you can download the high resolution versions of these clips for only a dollar. You can also check out his YouTube page (and click here and here to see a few videos of him). He also has a professional site and a TubeBear profile.

The ManBears of Manchester (England - UK) are inviting us to their upcoming Great British Bear Bash. This is their 11th annual run and it will be happening from May 1st thru the 5th. Is there back-room action? 'Yes', they state. Lots of sex? They say 'Hell, yeah!'. Dancing? 'Yep', they reply. And what about Bear, Fur and Fun? 'It goes without saying'.

If you need more convincing, check out these videos on YouTube from last year's Bear Bash - video #1 - video #2 - video #3. Also, a lot of the ManBears cute husky members are actors in the FurFun.tv videos. Maybe some of these guys will sign an autograph on a body part. I know I would ask.
