I have never watched any of the Big Brother programmes.
It is one of the mysteries of my life........What makes normally sensible people want to watch other people, washing...sleeping...bathing...rowing...arguing...flossing.. .bed hopping...cheating...drinking and falling over?
Do none of them have lives of their own?
This news coverage is a sad reflection on the state of the world today. People are fighting and dying, being murdered, robbed and abused. The planet is being neglected, polluted, violated and generally taken for granted.
It is outrageous that with all the problems and tragedies happening in the world right now THIS is what makes headline news!!!!!

Jade Goody and her kith and kin are indicative of a wider intolerance and ignorance abroad in this country. Big Brother shows the UK in its true colours: A breeding ground for uneducated, moronic twats. Discuss.
I don't think the whole of the Uk is a breeding ground for such people but I agree with your sentiments in general.
Jade Goody is a shocking example of the way in which someone with no talent or social skills what-so-ever can earn a good income simply for being ignorant, ill-mannered, foul-mouthed and downright nasty.
I think her behaviour is not so much racist as displaying a deep envy of someone richer than she is, a complete lack of understanding of and tolerance towards someone with a different way of life and an appalling lack of self control and sense of proportion.
I can't imagine why people willingliy submit to appear on such a terrible show and can understand even less why people watch it.

I wouldn't be able to suffer being around people I don't know 24 hours a day
Oh yes. That would be out of the question for me. I'd be (even more of) a basket case by the end of one day, let alone weeks and weeks of it!
I would be asking to be let out to go home!!

Jade is getting a lot of bad press about her fitness video and her claims she lost all her weight through exercise when she did in fact go to a place in Liverpool and have liposuction.
Did they keep the fat and throw the girl away?

I think the fact that there were over 20,000 complaints shows you can't judge the whole UK by what happened on that show.

Its Now over 32'0000 ( still 20'000 behide the jerry springer opera! on BBC2! )

No of course not. There are many people here who are well manered, educated and right thinking. But I still believe Jade Goody speaks for a significant proportion of the population. There were over 57,000,000 who didn't complain if you want to use statistics.

Perhaps those of us who did not complain are disgusted by Jade's behaviour in its context but have much bigger things to worry about - like whether Bush will invade Iran, Korea will nuke us at some point in the future and another gang of backpack bombers will step on to buses and tubes this summer.

And about 53,000,000 of those don't watch Big Brother!

No, it was Jerry Springer: The Opera.
And apparently only 8,000 of the complaints were received AFTER it was screened.
Post by: smurfboy on January 21, 2007, 05:31:15 pm
I bet if the BBC let me make a programme it would get more complaints.
I would be first in the queue

I see Jade Goody wants to go to India to apologise for her comments but India don't want her.
Aren't pigs sacred in India? Or is that cows? I suppose either way she qualifies.

Does she actually know where India is? I mean, does she realise she will have to leave the country to get there?

Given this is the woman who thought 'East Angular' was abroad, probably not.

I heard she originally wanted to call her perfume IQ but she couldn't spell it.

Who thinks it was fixed for Shilpa to win?
The very idea! Yes, of course it was.
Post by: smurfboy on January 29, 2007, 07:32:35 pm
Yes, and it was Jade that fixed it! She has wrecked her own career and made a UK one for Shilpa in the process.
Jo O'Meara was in the paper yesterday and is refusing to apologise. Does this make her worse than Jade, or simply more honest, as Jade's 'apology' was obviously staged to save her skin?
