Patricks love of this series seems to stem from him worshipping Jedward.

but you really need to realise that we dont all live in the very limited world of a 14 year old. This series has nothing for adults.

Start where you want, its my opinion. If you dont know that Amy, Kerry and Jedward are popular at the moment then its time for you to pick up a newspaper. And yes thats when i was born

Shaun 02-09-2011 10:33 PM

Yeah, Amy's all over the Guardian

Theres a big line between popular/well known and celebrities. 2 of those come from reality shows, the other won a celeb based reality show in 2004 because she was already past it back then

You say you don't know who Sally is, maybe you should read other parts of that newspaper you told me to pick up and you might learn something. And just to continue to keep in touch with popular culture you might want to watch Big Fat Gypsy Weddings

Mr. Paparazzi is known to a limited audience of the type of people who guzzle shows like Big Brother. Not a celebrity. And Lucien has about as much right to the tag 'celebrity' as the guy who sprung the trapdoor from out under Saddam Hussein.

Chantelle became a bigger celebrity than the both of them combined the night she went into Big Brother. That was the power of the format back then.

I'l give it a much deserved 8...

Jake. 02-09-2011 10:44 PM

Actually i didnt want to mention Sally and Paddy as I didnt think you would consider them well known, judging by the way youve talked about how un-famous they all are. I know who Sally and Paddy are. Infact the only three I had never heard of was Bobby, the fat pap and Pamela

Who the heck were you all expecting? Lady Gaga? Madonna? Charlie Sheen? Will Smith?


I think people can't accept that John and Edward ARE infact big celebrities in this country, as is Kerry Katona and Amy Childs has been all over the tabloids for over a year now aswell.

Tara Reid, is a really big name aswell.
Lucien Laviscount is a really current actor and just because alot of oldies don't know him because they didn't watch Waterloo Road doesn't mean he's not a celebrity.

Honestly the only people in there who probably shouldn't really be are Paddy and Bobby.


In terms of names, this series has pulled out all the stops - I think it's awesome how they've got CURRENT celebrities like Kerry, Lucien, Amy and Jedward and not washed up Hollywood Americans in their 50s that no one knows.

I agree that big, huge celebrities don't guarantee them a great housemate. We've had two Jackson's and they were both pretty bland. But just because Lucien is an actor does not make him a celebrated personality. A few episodes of Waterloo Road doesn't make him famous.

Don't get me started on Amy.

In fairness Darryn is quite a successful businessman too, he was a Dragon on Australia's Dragons Den (although admittedly the show flopped over there :tongue:). I agree about Lucien though.

I'd give this series a 7, it hasnt massively immersed me or anything but I'm still enjoying watching and make sure I catch up on an episode if I miss it

DanielLuis 02-09-2011 11:17 PM

the fact that the crazy girl teens managed to put a women out in every eviction ruined the show

001steven 03-09-2011 02:18 AM

4/10

was really hyped for the launch, Launch night went ok, then from then onwards lost interest.

Mystic Mock 03-09-2011 02:48 AM

2 as I only like Jedward and I liked Tara aswell.

The rest can go and **** themselves.

iRyan 03-09-2011 07:12 AM

8/10, but now that Tara's gone it's gonna suck.
