....has happened to 'Big Brother'???
I have to have the courage of my convictions and admit to having been an avid Big Brother fan in previous year's, judging by the first week of BB5 that's gonna change.
This years motley crew of contestants beggars belief, ok so C4 want viewing figures but is this the way to do it? Did the programmes researchers misunderstand their remit when they set about recruiting this years batch of hopefulls...were they under the impression they where employed to staff a circus!!
We have Marco who must be the most aggravating individual to ever grace our screens and gives a whole new meaning to the phrase 'happy clappy', 'Kitten' who has more than her fair share of personal psychological 'issues',a gay guy who seems only to be interested in straight men and a plethora of female wannabes who's only interest seems to be getting their kit off on TV. The rest barely warrant a mention save for Stuart who thinks he's (and I quote) 'probably the brightest person the researchers have ever interviewed' solely on the basis that he has a few 'A' levels........come back to us on that one with your PhD sunshine!
It seems to me the entire approach has been for two purposes only, to incite conflict and to achieve on tape the 1st live sexual exploits within the house.....they may well achieve their goal........this lot seem more likely to indulge in an orgy of some description than one on one action!
Don't get me wrong, I'm happy to live and let live and it takes allsorts to make a world, I'm hopefully un-shockable and all that but this just seems to be a bit OTT......who in there do the majority of us identify with this year?
Maybe I'm just getting old.......... and despite my misgivings you will notice I have been watching!!!! :o)

Me again - still sober - am I the only person who is seriously concerned about Kitten's mental health? And I am being serious now!
I, for one, don't want to watch the poor girl 'lose-it' in the name of entertainment - cos it isn't!
You and me both...... and she undoubtedly will! :o(
At last - a kindred spirit! I too love cats, although my partner doesn't so we compromise with a rescue dog called Lucy. Well done for fleeing the rat race. Loved your website and blogs. I have just put a very basic website of my own together - a learning experience really - http://jennytc.mysite.freeserve.com
Keep up the good work!
