Big brother

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 have not watched much of BB this time as they are horrible people in there.  I read in the paper there were racist comments made towards Shilpa but I am none the wiser. loulou39100.4523958333

I haven't watched it but think it ridiculous considering all that's going on in the world that BB makes headline news.

I haven't watched it but have ben folowing the news and have heard excerpts of the dialogue on the radio.  It's pretty unedifying stuff.  The fact that this prog is so popular is in itself a sad indictment on the country.

So can you tell us what has happened or been said bounty?

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!!!!!

I think people do it for the money and the celebs do it to try to get back into the limelight.  I wouldn't be able to suffer being around people I don't know 24 hours a day and the thought of a camera following me to the bathroom is just scarey.

What annoys me is how people in our country are made into 'celebrities' simply for being on a reality TV show.

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.

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!!

I haven't actually seen that much of this, so I can't really comment, but if what I read in the papers is true Jade's 'loveable dimwit' mask has seriously slipped. This could bury her - and I can't say I'll be sorry.

Very nicely put Smurfy

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.

She's a talentless common pig.

Did they keep the fat and throw the girl away?
