I have to make the shameful confession that I too am a BB fan. I started off watching 'cos my gf is a big fan, but I'm hooked now. God knows why 'cos they're all such thoroughly disagreeable sorts!

Anthony is possibly the least hateful housemate, but he's altogether too touchy-feely with Craig, who's clearly in love with the Geordie midget. Mykosi seems like a delusional borderline nut job, Derek is a two-faced faux-posh Tory turd, Science is the world's most annoying person, Eugene is a nerd who looks like a chamber-of-horrors escapee & Orlaith can't wait to get her thrups out at any & every opportunity.

Not that I'm complaining, mind....

You know what, I watched the first series of the show and really enjoyed it. Since then I've watched all the rest sparingly. The novelty wore off for me very quickly but it is definately better than Celebrity Love Island or any other reality show.

Watched a tiny bit of this years BB and that Science needs a good kicking!

I hope Science stays tho, love seeing him wind everyone up. And Eugene is brilliant, he's the biggest geek ever, but very sweet... love the way he talks so enthusiastically about such little things and everyone else is yawning..

Science is good entertainment value, but I'd swing for him if I lived with him!

I think he'll stay as more girls than guys vote & I bet Orlaith hasn't endeared herself to them by parading around half-starkers all the time!

& yes, I am watching now....

This isn't me being racist or degenerating in the slightest, its just a cynical observation, but is this a special "token black" edition of big brother? Quite funny that there are (I think) the same number of black african people as there were in Big Brother SA! I'm quite annoyed that I notice these things, but it's been bugging me for a bit, maybe they get loads and loads of ethnic applicants or something

dont forget this random selection of the public usually ends up camper than a row of tents

I've caught a fair bit of it, because my best friend is nuts about it, she never stops watching it, and always makes me suffer it whenever i go round..... That geordie t*t wants smacking, as does his little queen of a mate (the betting at work is those two will get it on once they get out)... Science is just as annoying, Makosi wants a slap..... To be fair to kemal he does make me laugh, Derek doesnt annoy me that much (reckon he's got it sussed to win), Eugene is kinda annoying, but in an ok way, he's the type of person i always end up friends with when no one else would..... as for orlaigh, dont see why everyone complains, whenever i've seen it she's been nice to people, yet they all seem to hate her, probably because they know every bloke who's watching is drooling (my friend always tells me off before i've even had chance to let my eyes slip below shoulder level......)
