I actually watched that programme on e4 last night. It made for uncomfortable viewing and pretty much sums up what's wrong with Big Brother. The clip where Jade strips to nothing during a drinking game is absolutely typical: when things get a little boring, the show's producers simply dream up an absurdly easy 'task', the reward for which is inevitably a huge crate of booze. The housemates then perform like the lab rats they are, getting smashed, doing something stupid and, hopefully, generating 25 minutes of useable clips for the nightly lowlights show.

i'm afraid to say i've got better things to do with my time than watching a bunch of people i don't know acting stupid or generally not doing alot.. the fact that all these people that have been on this show have disapeared says alot really..

why not go out and take part in real life instead.. much more fun

We interviewed Marcus Bentley last night (he's the geordie who narrates the show) and he gave the strongest hints yet that if BB5 doesn't turn out to be a ratings winner, there might not be a BB6.

thank god for that.. never should have been a first one..

it's almost as bad as the "i'm someone you may vaugely have heard of who can't get a job anywhere else" reality TV shows..

Less than that now - and I am still happy that I will not be in to watch it ....

I am pleased to say I missed the whole of the last one (something to do with it not being broadcast in Iraq), and the only thing it did was act as a countdown for my wife (I was due home on the last day of it)...

I have never enjoyed it - not even the first one...

If I want to see a load of wannabe celebs make complete arses out of themselves, I just tune into the parlimentary channel, or go down the pub on a karaoke night.

(you might be able to guess that I think it is the biggest load of tosh on the television)

As they say - horses for courses - but this is definately one I will miss out on thanks...

:angel:

That stripping game wasn't thought up by the show's producers at all. The drinking game was Johnny's idea and all were happily playing along. Jade not being the brightest button kept getting it wrong, so had to lose clothes. It was upto her to completly strip off and it show's just how drunk or stupid she was.

No, I know the drinking game wasn't itself a 'task'. The point I was making is that when the show gets boring, the producers introduce easy tasks. The reward for completing such tasks invariably includes alcohol.

The producers are effectively drugging the housemates to get them to do something embarrassing. This is how Big Brother ensures that ratings-winning antics of the kind shown last night start to happen. It's all rather sad and degrading.

Yup i do agree with you on that in a way! There have been housemates who didn't drink and were later classed as boring by the media. Dean from BB2 didn't drink but i thought he was a great character. It's one of these old views people have when they say you have to have a drink to have a good time. I always go out in the car so rarely drink but i have a good time.

Thing's do revolve around drinking but it seems the only way people will show there true colour's on Big Brother because they are so caught up with trying to win it.

The camp gay one (Marco?) is doing my nut in already.....

And I'm sure the lesbian (not sure of her name yet) is going to be the first out - she gets my vote....
