Not normally a Big Brother viewer but these specimens are more interesting than usual. Jodie Marsh is deserved favourite at 2/5 on Betfair for the first eviction given her broken record appeal.  But Galloway at 11/4 may be  value as he may mean very little to  many of of the show’s younger viewers.<br>

Already done my money on Chantelle at 17’s. Thought she was certain to be evicted on Sunday night but unfortunately I’d not allowed for the gallantry of the younger men in the group.
Jodie is getting all the negative feedback on the forums which are usually a good indicator of public opinion – they are usually the people who can be bothered to vote!
Why do Ladbrokes have "any other" to win the competition as only a 4/1 shot. This is so much shorter than any other firms – are they friends with Endamol?
Hiya,
This season of Celebrity Big Brother is not without its interests from a psychological point of view. It’s also fun to see how successful those participants with some agenda of which to speak are at getting it across on screen.
Jodie Marsh’s plonking of herself on the highest table right under a camera and turning on the waterworks at 3.30am (with a small and captive (but mercifully cynical) audience) was calculated to the nth degree and rightly fell on its arse; whereas Mr Galloway’s chats with Rula Lenska must be affording him close to the amount of coverage he had hoped for in re-iterating his stance re: the War on Terror, Saddam et al.
Some way from brain-dead watching, I’d suggest.

The tv equivalent of Portman Park. <br>
Whereas this is informed social comment?

Maybe Aiden O’Brien is going to enter the house?

Peaty Sandy is spot on IMO.<br>How’s about a top 10 moronic TV programmes?<br>1) Celebrity Big Brother<br>2) Celebrity Fat Club<br>3) Celebrity Soap Super Star (you know the one I mean)<br>4) Celebrity Come Dancing<br>5) I’m a Celebrity get me out of here<br>6) Emmerdale<br>7) Coronation Street<br>8) Eastenders<br>9) Neighbours<br>10) Richard & Judy<br> …I’m sure there are lots more.
come on, celebrity come dancing is in a different league to the others.:biggrin:
and its all for a good cause!!!
Peaty Sandy has called it correctly and if Insomniac were to watch his list he’d have to change his username :biggrin:
great list to be honest and one I totally agree with, I’ve said on many occasions if they want to keep putting crap similar to Insomniacs list on TV they ought to abolish the stupid TV licence and at least give us all a bit of satisfaction. :angry:
I feel embarrassed for those that actually love those kind of TV shows but I suppose it takes allsorts. :(

<br>I wouldn’t go as far as saying I loved any reality show, or anything on Insomniac’s list for that matter, but to dismiss them as being totally devoid of interest on any level is possibly a little nose off in spite of face.
It does sadden me that the younger demographic is more exercised in voting for these programmes than a democratically electable party when called upon to do so, however.

I would have a public vote – to keep the bunch of herbits in the Big Brother house forever.
