Big Brother ... grow their own

[quark1]

Good!

Watching the lifecycle of a radish may be the most entertaining aspect of this now VERY stale show.

[quark1]

Just had another thought - will it be known as crop telly?!

That should pass the censor test....

[squashysu]

Sorry to disappoint, I LOOOVE IT lol, and your right i dont have a life!! sometimes watching someone else make a fool of themselves is far better than watching yourself do it!!!!

the kids are in bed, the OH is away a lot and i have the tv in the evenings, so some escapism is in order!!

ha ha - bring on the madness, plus i think Davina McCall is ace.

Sorry if I came over as dismissive or unkind to those who like / follow Big Brother, each to their own n all that, just its not my cup of tea at all, I just can't see the attraction of watching a bunch of fame hungry folk couped up in unnatural surroundings for the enjoyment of others! Apologies if its your thing, and hope you enjoy it!

happy viewing x

sorry to admit my new unreal real surreal escape(the vine)distracted me from my viewing so cant comment on whos who!maybe the vine has cured me from trashy tv LOL!? or maybe it was the launch night wine!

[HeyWayne]

LadyWayne wanted to watch it last night - so I made myself busy with some emailing.

I'm sure it's compulsive viewing for many - it must be, otherwise CH4 would have the sense to drop it. However, what I saw of it, I don't think they could of selected a more vacuous, self-obsessed bunch of people if they'd tried. I'd wager that if you looked deep into the eyes of most of them, you'd see the back of their head. Or a mirror.

My brother ("little" brother) applied for it a few years ago, and he can be, let's just say a bit "dramatic", but was turned down. Speaks volumes for me of the type of people they try to attract.

I think I'll be tuning into to the other side to watch celebrity house makeover pet swap.

when BB first came out I did USED to watch it BUT now I have to many others to be doing, also its the same thing and VERY boring.

I did go to eviction once ( my company sponsored it in the early days and we got free tickets) and it was rubbish. I think we arrived at about 6pm and had to wait around outside till about 9pm, thrown in a pen and all squashed, then as soon as the programme was finished we was thrown out!!!

I am NOT at all upset by the comments above, I suppose I didnt have much of life back then BUT now I am busy with family stuff and my second home - yes you guessed it the ALLOTMENT!!!! and my third home, the greenhouse!!!

Have a great day all,

Lorraine

I didn't watch it, but I don't think BB is any more or less moronic than watching 22 men chase a ball round a lawn in the rain.
