    I'm A Celeb...I won't be watching...too many unknowns

    I don't know about you, but I struggle to find anyone remotely interesting in this year's I'm A Celeb.

    I seriously cannot say I know more than two or three. Yes, Biggins, yes, McClaren (but he might not be in it), and yes, Clerys Matthews.

    The remainder...like, who ARE THEY?

    Sorry, but this is the worst line-up ever. Not even money can get D-rated celebs to go on that show.

    At the best of times, I only dip into it occassionally, but I won't be doing that this year. Rubbish.


    I wish women would stop saying I'm very good looking. It's embarrassing...

    My System: Pace Sky HD, DM7000s, CubeRevo 3000HDPVR, Transparent 80cm Dish, Moteck SG2100 DiseqC motor, lots of legacy gear. Meters: Satlook Digital NIT, Televes H45 Digital Spectrum analyser.
    The last one I watched was when Myleene Klass was on it, made it worth watching. Otherwise, I am really bored with and have started to seriously dislike reality TV.

    The last ones I watched all the way through were the Tony Blackburn one and when Joe Pasqueiri won - oh heck, I cannot spell his surname.

    They are implants though, which is a shame I might give it a look every so often, but I'm more of a Big Brother fan myself.

    I can' see the point of the show myself, but if Endemol have anything to do with it, it's going to be profitable for the execs, expensive for the public, contrived situations inserted as scandal, and a waste of airtime/media coverage .
    There is a very fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness"

    It's made by ITV Productions, but your point still stands, particularly with regard to Endemol. The standard of the last 2-3 Big Brothers has been quite shocking, 1 more 'tampered' series and even I will switch off I think.

    For that sort of entertainment, I usually tune into Hustler.
