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.....

Oh my God! PJ is being a real Polaroid head! I feel really sorry for Alex, PJ's really on his case. It wasn't his fault that he won, and he couldn't pick everyone, and PJ is just being a complete backside.

I agree, poor Alex. What's PJ's porblem, it's not like he's been the nicest person to Alex. Alex chose Adele, fair, they get on well, Jade because he felt sorry for her on the poor side, always breaking down and Sophie becuase Spencer, Kate, PJ and Jonny have all used VERY colourful words to describe Alex.

Hope PJ goes next

Acker No power in the 'verse can stop me.

Yes! Death to PJ! Not, literally, but he is one moaning ... person.

Yeah agree with you Acker. PJ has to go. Alex was just being a gentleman by taking the girls to the rich side. I mean he had to pick someone!!

Think after his exploits with jade and the bitching he's been doing that PJ will probably be nominated....and also Sophie...hope Sophie goes as I just haven't really taken to her

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

well as jade has been excluded from voting next week i think alex is definately going to be nominated along with sophi and sophie will be out because she's boring

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

Poor Alex! The narrator on channel 4 said (I THINK!) that he was known to be really good at darts so that contest must have been at least slightly weighted towards him winning it and falling out with everyone again!

I haven't liked PJ from early on - he seems to think women really fancy him (WHY?!

) and his behaviour towards Alex was just mean. Especially as he'd been saying while they were waiting for the result that it was a tough decision to make. Hope it annoys the enough of the others that somehow he gets nominated along with Alex... and gets evicted!

What??? How come?

I never like PJ, but I thought I'd give him a fair chance. But now I hate him. "He must die, I alone am best!"

Yvonne I was nothing more than an almost innocent bystander.

I'm all upset now

The new Housemate is a minging posh bloke

They took away the pretty big black man and now I've got nothing nice to look at

*pout*

Jade was excluded from nominating because of gossiping too much about the nominations and telling people who she's nominated in the past and why

OMG i don't believe it. Alex and Spencer are up for eviction this week. Obviously Alex was gonna be because of teh darts task, but Spencer - I was convinced it would be Sophie or PJ.

Well thats my phone bill going sky high to try and get alex out

Sange It's only kinky the first time!!! after that it's just the Norm ;o)

Noooooooooo I want Alex to stay , I mean what does Spencer add to the house ???????

Alex must stay he is soooo funny

Posted: 14:42 Jun 18 2002

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

It's going to be so boring if Alex goes! Save Alex!!

Sorry, Smelly Spencer does nothing for me, and I can't think of a single entertaining thing he's done since entering the house. He just sits there. They could put a shop dummy in his place and no-one would notice the difference. Even PJ was more entertaining after the darts contest last weekend (not very nice, but more watchable). Whereas Alex is usually at the centre of some piece of controversy. Sorry, but Spencer must go!

Ooooooh, I'm torn on this one. I like and dislike them both equally. Spencer is pretty cool, though he has a bit of an attitude, especially towards Big Brother, which I don't like. Alex is also fairly cool, though he's not really done anything special to make me want him to stay.

Has to be Spencer to go. He doesn't wash often enough for my liking and Alex made me laugh so much last night in the Jade/ Adele fight.

well, i want spencer to go. But there is a bigger question on the tip of my tongue: "is jade the thickest/most ignorant eprson in the world today?"

A big ole yes from the BIff camp.

.

Yes, but not because of the things she's coming out with. She's thick because she thinks she's doing an impersonation of Helen from last year and thinks people will fall for it! It's not genuine.

Is Biff camp a resort of some kind??? I mean are there rides and celebrity visits. Is it like a rich man's Disney Land or a poor man's Chesington?

Possible end in sight for the divide...

This saturdays task will end up with a 'winner' and a 'loser' who will take turns to pick who will live with them on the 'rich' and 'poor' sides (like picking teams at school) Then next weeks task will be to decide whether the bars stay or go. Should be intersting. i hope jade gets to stay on the rich side tho - then she'll get too "lagged" again and annoy even more people so she'll get evicted

{self edited for language - ooooppppssss}
