Doubleplusgood? (Big Brother 3.....)

With Big Brother 3 starting tonight I just wondered who else would be watching it for the next few weeks? What are your views on it, and other 'reality' type TV programmes?

Are they a good thing? Is there something inherently wrong with the viewing public being fascinated with voyeurism? Has the novelty now worn off now that our TV seems to be saturated with these shows?

Personally, I can't wait and plan to watch as much as possible of it as I've never watched one from the beginning before. But I've only had a passing interest in the likes of 'Survivor'.

Over to you.....

Sydney You can lead the whore to culture but you can't make her think!

Everyone please vote for Johnny!! I really cant stand him. I think it was the chewing toenails and peeing in the shower that done it DISGUSTING!!!

In the interests of 'democracy' Everyone please vote for Lee. I really cxan't stand him. What an {edit}. Playing off Adele and Sophie against each other while he's got a serious girlfriend on the outside. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
Plus - Lee is super super boring :yawn:

Jonny's a laugh - A typical Shields blokie

And what about Sandy escaping - Right at the beginning of the England match as well. It must have been too much for the Scot to cope with

Anyone else think that Big Brother's getting a bit out of control? What with Sunita walking, Lee wanting to do the same and Sandy climbing on the roof to escape this morning and being led away in a straight jacket and all the rule breaking last night with the food and drink being passed through the bars. Seems to me now they've put those bars up they're going stir crazy and it could end badly.

Lol Haven't read it saw the plot outline though. Get it when it's out in paper back

Clea Be careful what you wish for... you may get it.

Jonny and Lee... can't decide which one to vote for... they're BOTH awful!

Now, if Alex was worried about what Jonny did in the shower, how is he going to cope with Sandy doing the same thing in one of the indoor rubbish bins?!

God yes can't have things like that happening in the British Big Brother. That sort of thing only happens in the foreign ones

Jango 'Miiiiilk it..!'

I caught the programme late last evening, just as Sandy was passing alcohol to the 'poor' mates, cos he'd decided to leave and, IMO, they had a half decent conversation for the first time ever in any Big Brother I've seen. It's strange that to generate any excitement, you have to be prepared to bend the rules, if not ignore them completely...

Wow! Tonights episode was cool. Sandy re-enacting the Great Escape (but without getting caught up in the barbed wire) and Jade and PJ gettin' it on!

I am gonna miss Sandy, he was way cool, but that was a very cool exit he made. Even better than Jack Dee's!

/me starts singing the Great Escape tunes...join in everyone!

I *just* woke up (I dozed off) in time to see PJ and piggyface..oops, I mean Jade get their groove on too hehe. Ah well, any fears over her getting dumped when she gets out can be certified now

Yvonne I was nothing more than an almost innocent bystander.

Spencer - I think he's trying the Jack Dee approach to winning BB, he'll probably be going for escape routes in the next few weeks.

Not a bad little prediction there, your aim was just a little off

We got a new housemate - or at least we will on sunday at 7pm. lets hope he/she will be a little more interesting that sophie or claire eh?

Miss Edith People don't fall in love with what's right in front of them. People want the dream -- what they can't have. The more unattainable, the more attractive. --Xander

O.K I must admit I'm glad Lee is gone, but I'd rather have seen Johnny go as he's so cocky and annoying!!!

Still maybe next week

It will be interesting to see what Sophie does without her bossom buddy. I dont think I've heard her speak to anyone else in the house!! She's surely gotta soon as well!

Alex is my new favorite he makes me laugh and I'm with him on the whole peeing in the shower malarky!! Second would have to be Spencer hes laid back and cool without pretence.

Milky "Busted - Now that you're gone, I'm sleeping with the light on..." Pof, 2005

Gotta say I'm glad Lee's gone..was never a big Lee fan...I am starting to warm to Alex now. Was really funny last week when Spencer asked Adele if she minded sleeping between Alex and himself. When Adele said that she didn't mind Alex quipped quickly "Do you want to go top or bottom Spence". Everyone burst out laughing and then Spencer said "Alex, you're pretty funny" to which Alex replied "I've told you if I wasn't constipated and whinging I'd be a pretty funny guy" - Classic

Think Sophie and PJ will be next weeks nominees...with Sophie to go unless the public go for a backlash on PJ for the way he's been treating Jade.

Jango 'Miiiiilk it..!'

It gave an interesting insight into Jonny's thinking that he believed women would *not* vote Lee out after the the way he carried on in the house. The miserable git was a deaad man walking from Tuesday onwards...

Keenangel *Fourteen phonecalls a night??!!*

I hope Alex goes really soon, he's such a whinger.. a real, old woman!.. i would've decked him one by now

Clea Be careful what you wish for... you may get it.

It'll all depend on how tonights task goes as to who gets nominated. Apparently the winner gets to choose which side he or she gets to live on for the next week, and then choose 3 other housemates to live on that side with them. Which means the new person will be on the rich side tomorrow night. It also means whoever wins the task will probably have 5 nominations against them from the housemates they didn't choose and definitely be up for eviction on Friday.

Ooooooooooh, it's all change! So am I right in thinking that it's just Kate and the blokes on the poor side now. That could be interesting. At least her and Spencer can be together now.

Spitefulangel Why buy the cow...when you get the sex for free

i felt very sorry for alex having to make that decision, and i think the other housemates not chosen should be sympathetic, poor him.
maybe the introduction of a new housemate might take the attention away from his desicion.....whatever, it'll be an intresting week
