What a load of ****e tonights show was. Picking spots, yet another clean sweep of stars, and the closest we came to controversy was Emily taking an extra piece of chilli.
They need to put someone in IMO.

They’d only put someone in if the viewing figures took a knock.

We had someone who was stirring it, but the UK didn't save him!
There HAS to be something wrong with people who enjoy , even need , to have conflict , aggression , aggravation and whatever ... present on screen for them to be content or fulfilled .
The majority of us are enjoying this series , the friendships , the kindness and consideration we've all witnessed on screen .

Yeah, what was all the spot popping about???
It's like taking a dump and inviting people to look and 'admire' it.
Horrible.

Can't really eat bugs from the garden. They carry disease.
The bugs on I'm A Celeb are specially bred - disease free.
i think the trials are more simple this year. They don't have to be disgusting to be difficult. The only difficult trial has been Noel and Nick in the boxes

Allogrooming. It's typical primate behaviour to reinforce social structures and maintain the peace. If IAC was a social experiment (as BB claimed to be originally) they would have psychologists analysing everything.

Got to admit this years is one of the most boring series Ive ever seen ,we need a bit of drama, not all playing happy families and if Emily and Fleur the camera hogging screeching duo don't go soon I will rip my hair out

It’s a shame because the cast is actually good but two weeks in I still feel like I barely know some of them. Too much time on trials and tasks this series, there’s no dynamic or storylines within the actual camp.

Yeah I'd agree ... I fast forward through much of the tasks and enjoy the footage from the camp site ..
I would add that when they add stupid , obnoxious types to shake things up --- I switch off.

If you want drama why not watch one of the gawd awful soap operas on screen or read a book .. watch a movie ??
Why would you want to see nice people being tormented or terrorised deliberately ( remember those obnoxious types are behaving like that to get air time !)

I don't think anyone is looking for anyone to be tormented or terrorised...just a few opinionated people and some debate.
There are people holding back in there...but working hard to keep it nice.

But do you not see the difference between REALITY drama unfolding naturally on our screens to SOAP/FILM and BOOK drama???

Yeah I actually agree. Easily the worst show of the series so far.
But do you not see the difference between REALITY drama unfolding naturally on our screens to SOAP/FILM and BOOK drama???
But it's not natural, that's my point !
The odious individuals creating / causing the drama by being rude / cruel / unpleasant / intimidating are only behaving like that to get airtime as people like yourself fall for this fake drama ..
It's not normal behaviour..

Situations in life can cause any two people to disagree...that doesn't make people odious :shrug: Harry throwing his toys out the pram over Nick having an advantage over the drinking challenge...it was funny,silly but human nature...no one was odious. Its not forced drama in the jungle.. Harry started to hint last night that people are being a bit fake in there. John finally admitting people are mollycoddling Anne...
Its been a good show but there is a lot of fakeness in there...people holding back.
...and I don't fall for fake drama...I live in the real world thankyou.

You make some great points .
I don't mind genuine 'drama' as it is human nature .. the example you gave is perfect.
I'm on about when they throw complete imbeciles in the mix to purposely upset and antagonise people ..like the recent late arrival in BB .. was he called Hussain !
I had to quit the show after he turned up

Pretty much all of the popular stuff on TV involves conflict and aggression. The soaps aren't all about happy families, neither are are the dramas.
Where is the fun in watching several largely untalented people making chit chat in a jungle? Only a couple of them actually have a personality. James and Malique could be replaced with cardboard cutouts and nobody would notice.
You need housemates like Janet Street Porter or Timmy Mallett or Dom Joly to really stir it up. Othetwise the show is pointless.

ITV know it needs conflict. That is why they write CONFLICT in huge jungle letters in the opening highlights when the slightest thing has happened. Most people are watching for conflict.

I disagree .. this has been a happy camp with great viewing figures wheras Big Brother with its fake / forced drama provided by idiots like Lewis and Hussain has been cancelled

No I agree...but sometimes we need a prod at the barriers.
The jungle isn't like that though...it's more natural. Maybe there is more tolerant people in there this year :laugh:

Well it's hot and humid , they're itchy and being eaten alive with insects , starving , lacking sleep , missing family and friends ( and routine ) , their time is apparently boring and monotonous...
They are under pressure from cameras watching them 24/7 , stressful tasks plus they're putting them up again each other by splitting them into teams ...
Jesus !

good times :(
her obliterating tony over her throwing a beetle on the fire is still so bloody iconic (and then the camp siding with tony even tho they're on a show where they eat and distress animals and insects for peoples entertainment :/ )

Gee, maybe it is other reasons, like producer manipulation, dodgy phone votes, being on at 10pm, running for 18 years. You know, little things like that.
Do people still say 'gee' ??!!??
Wow
