Out of interest why do you think people should only what Big Bro? and not avoid the channel totally? How do the two relate exactly?

They are both car crash television.....

Even if Channel 4 do decide not to show the images, they've won. Any advertising is good advertising.

We already know the images of Diana will be blacked out and are in there for specific reasons, not just an excuse for something overly sensationalist.

This whole area has already been covered by the media (and this programme's core purpose is after all to look at events from a different angle) so it surprises me how C4 have come in for an awful lot of unnecessary flack that has seemingly been the result of some knee-jerk overreactions in the wake of the BB fiasco.

I can't comprehend how anyone would agree that the interests of the Royal family should come before wider public interest.

Yeah I'm sure C4 will be getting a lot of sh*t in the next few days. Rolling Eyes

Well, it happened to Adrian Chilles a while back.... Laughing

I won't be watching Channel Four's documentary because I'd much rather see England's chances in qualifying for Euro 2008 die than somebody else die ten years ago.... and Diana's death seems to have been milked and I think the milk has gone sour.

I'm boycotting Big Brother until they put some hot men in.

Right now it is skank central and I can smell fish through my television screen.

I just want it on record that I'm not boycotting because of this troll.


I feel the exact same. I usually only ever watch it for the men anyway. Laughing


Me too. Ive missed all of Big Brother 8 so far as ive been in Spain but im not going to watch now im back as a) from what ive read in the papers it sounds boring b) there are no hot men.


This year is the first year I haven't watched it at all (Except for one edition of BBBM as Moyles was on it, although he seemed tame on there compared to his Radio 1 show) been too busy watching old Doctor Who's TBH. Smile

There is one man actually called Ziggy.And there's someone called Tracy who I think used to be a man.

Oh for God's sake.

Tracey isn't, nor ever has been, a man. She is what happens to girls who take too much coke, e, special k and whiz.

Haven't you ever been to a club?

I suggest that we all boycot BB if Chan 4 shows Dead Diana Pics.

I'll boycott bb anyway,Just for it being pure ****


I'll second that! Smile

BB is not an acceptable use of television airtime. Why so many millions of viewers want to sit around watching a bunch of people, er, sitting around, is beyond me. Confused

The kind of vacuous, "look at me"-merchant that a person surely has to be in order to want to be a BB contestant, is precisely the kind of person I'd cross the street to avoid. So watching a group of such people on telly is about as appealing to me as being cut open alive. Rolling Eyes
