Whatever happened to Jimmy Tarbuck? I was looking forward to seeing him in the house cracking jokes! Classic Tarbuck action! Tarby's Frame Game and Full Swing! Great shows with a great guy. Where is he? Crying or Very sad

So what happened to Boy George? Or was that supposed to be George Galloway?


Clearly the tabloids found a rough note or something - got the wrong end of the stick so just decided to stick Boy George down as a possibility.

Well I must say that I'm SO pleased that Michael Barrymore is back on our screens - and I'm delighted with the reaction he got from the crowd, almost brought a tear to my eye!!

Don't reckon much to the other celebrities though - I don't even know who half of them are!

I think the winner will be between Preston, Maggot, Pete or Michael.

...and don't get me started on Mr. Galloway... Rolling Eyes

Never believe speculation they only way you'd know is to watch them be introduced on the launch show. There must be quite a few bookmakers and newspapers feeling very stupid right now. Very Happy

Pete Burns ladies and....ladies.


He says "I'm not trying to dress as a woman"! Ha!

Michael Barrymore to win - he's the only person in the house people actually know.

By the way, does anyone know the song by Pete Burns that went "Round round baby, round round"? (or was that it?)

You spin me round (like a record) is the songs full and proper title.
Burns performed under the with the band Dead or Alive.

Is there a joke in there that made you laugh? If so it has escaped me.

If Pete Burns wants to call himself a man/woman/pygmy marmasat then he is entitled to do that - and you are not in a position to tell us what is in his head. Show a little respect.

Can the moderators please assure us that we won't see the same tripe posted here about Pete Burns as we saw on the DS site about Nadia?

Quite honestly I don't think I will cope with Barrymore's anxious on-the-cusp-of-a-breakdown 'performance'. I always thought he was a desparately weak performer and I doubt this will be any different. He doesn't even have any material to use. He never has done. Everything he has ever done has been a mish mash of maniacal shouting or throwing himself about the stage.

His nervousness is palpable and frankly contagious. He reminds me of an attention starved child. That may be good enough for the audience he pulled on ITV, but its not good enough for me.

I would sooner no one won than he did.

How interesting that you spring to the defence of Pete Burns and then follow it with a decimation of Michael Barrymore!
Laughing
Now why do you think Pete and Michael are in there? Pete -because he is a transvestite and Michael because he is a head case who may or may not crack up in the house. BB is a freak show - always was - always will be...its what gets the ratings after all. You want normal? Don't watch BB!

There should be a fairly obvious difference between slagging-off someone because they are annoying or talentless, to insulting them because of sexual preference or gender alignment.

I had a gut-full of "he/she/it" references by Nadia haters during BB previously, and I find it deeply unpalatable.

Barrymore being in this doesn't annoy me as the show is a bit of a last chance saloon for celebs. But Galloway does because he's a paid MP he should be sorting his constituency out!!
