There's just a single day to go before the longest-ever series of Celebrity Big Brother comes to an end, and with six big personalities left in the house, who will be walking away as the winner of summer Celebrity Big Brother 2016?

Whilst we don't know for sure who will win, we've certainly got some big opinions to share on those remaining! Read below to find out who we think deserves the glory tomorrow night (August 26).

Frankie Grande

Frankie has really made the most of his Big Brother UK experience, after making a few major mistakes playing the American format back in 2015. He's kept everybody on-side and played the perfect social game, whilst enjoying himself, having a lot of fun and standing up for himself in confrontational situations. When Bear would irritate the house, Frankie would be the only one to immediately go up to him, calmly, and try to find reasoning in what Bear had done. He understood that Bear may be acting out for a particular reason and in doing so and trying to understand him and get to know him more as a person, cemented himself in a great position in the house. I'd love to see him win, but think the chances of an American walking away with the winner's title is slim.

Renee Graziano

I've always been a big fan of Renee, ever since watching the very first episode of the reality show that made her famous - Mob Wives. Her behaviour in Celebrity Big Brother has been fantastic 99% of the time, with her brutal takedowns of Bear actually proving to be some of the best moments of the series. However, her comments about bisexuality and AIDs during discussions with Christopher Biggins can't really be forgiven. If she had been educated in the house and given a clearer sense of bisexuality and AIDs, then she would perhaps have had the opportunity to go through a redemptive journey. Unfortunately for Renee, she's been just a little bit of a let-down.

Aubrey O'Day

Spitting in someone's food and drink is never EVER okay. Putting that aside, Aubrey has provided some brilliant entertainment this series. She's put to one side the reality TV persona we all saw on Celebrity Apprentice US and seems to have a level head on her shoulders. She's a little assured of herself and whilst I love her tearing Bear's crew a new backside, telling everybody how famous you are and how silly it is to be on a show like Celebrity Big Brother whilst on the very same show is more than a little patronising. Aubrey shouldn't take the crown this time round.

Marnie Simpson

Marnie's negatives outweigh her positives. I like seeing a romance unfold on-screen but hers and Lewis' dominated way too much of the early edit, and her treatment of Saira when she shoved her breasts in her face was a huge breach of personal space and boundaries. There's not much more to say about Marnie. She's got a lot of pressure with both Charlotte Crosby and Scotty T of Geordie Shore winning in their respective CBB series, but I don't think Marnie will be following suit.

Ricky Norwood

Ricky's been very quiet during his time inside the house, but he's been cool, calm and collected, not allowing the vile personalities living with him to make him explode. He's got a lovely charm and air about him in the little we've been able to see and I would really like him to win. He, for me is the most deserving.

Stephen Bear

Does Bear deserve to win? No. Sure, he's hammered the screen time and been entertaining at times, but most of the time he's acted in the way a bully would. He'd set up situations which would cause one or a minority of people to feel very small and attacked, then sit back and watch them explode. When he wasn't doing that to ignite drama, he was prodding and poking and antagonising people until they couldn't take anymore. Everything he's done in that house has been for screen time, and the fact his girlfriend Lillie going in actually gained him some sympathy votes doesn't give me great hope for tomorrow night's public vote…
