It may get some press, but it really isn't a big deal in the UK anymore. I am not lying thanks.

so you know enough about it to be on a forum for it, but you some how know that it isn't mainstream. even though it's not only in the tabloids but also in serious news papers(like the guardian) yea, it's not a big deal at all...

whatever lol.

Well said,I agree.Jim and Lionel have been famous since before i was born,I'm 32!That's along time in the spotlight,They actually are British legends.

It's definitely not like how it was in the golden days on channel 4. I think it's pretty much looked upon as scrapping the barrel and a last option if a celeb goes in there now

well you can call them legends, but can you post some youtube vids of them actually being clever or funny or showing anything that would make me like them? cause i can't find anything that makes them seem talented or likeable at all.

well i think it gets as much attention as "the great british bake off" show, and that seems to be a big deal in the UK. i've never seen it, but i've heard of it from the same newspapers. I'm surprised there isn't someone from the great british bake off on CBB.

I don't watch that but that show is definitely in it's prime atm

Erm I know enough about it as I am a Big Brother fan & have been since it started on Channel 4 years ago lol :facepalm:

It really isn't a big deal in the UK anymore, it doesn't get half as many viewers as it used to get & a lot of press about it slates it!

So no it REALLY isn't a big deal in the UK, anymore...

It's who you are as a person that matters when it comes to respect. Evander got the boot, didn't he? (Rightly so.)
And look at Jimmy Saville and Rolf Harris...both legends with long careers. Who respects them?

I agree ,its not as big as it was,nowhere near

She's a slapper with a giant vag..jims best to keep his distance and stay close to the lovely casey..go jim you can win this and stick two fingers up at the haters.

Yes, it's time again for another boring winner who has done nothing but moan and look like he's sucking a lemon. :sleep:

I agree with you to a point but I do think that (as much as the paycheck brought her to the show and to the UK) that I think as long as she's on the show and in the UK she'll want as much of the attention as she can get (and I think that's why she's after a showmance with Lee) I mean why is she famous? for breaking up a hollywood couples marriage and fighting with Lindsey lohan? It seems that it's in her nature to want the spotlight on her for any reason she can get, I don't think that's stopped just because she's not in America atm

I prefer him to win over all the wannabees

They were popular in their time,I agree with you in that i'm not a fan of either of them outside the house,I never found Jims comedy very funny and Lionels tap dancing and stage stuff is'nt my thing at all but many many people loved and still do love both of them,Just because you or i don't find them entertaining does'nt mean that they're not British legends to alot of people out there.

jasmine - slapper casey - lovely. Jeez I don't know what show you are watching. Casey kissed Lee on the first night in the house ok they were both chained together but so were the rest of the housemates. She literally egged him on and he being the kind of guy he is went for it. She is around wearing provocative clothing and has massive boobs that she is making money from showing off. Jasmine isn't holier than thou and has her own bad points also but god Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeease don't make Casey out to be lovely and innocent. She was still after Lee when he came back into the house and voted for Jasmine to be evicted for one reason only. She is jealous. Its not cos of that petty little spat they had when Jas wrongly accused her of telling Sam that Jas and Luisa were talking about her

Looks like Jim is getting his own back:hugesmile:

3.43pm: Jim says that Jasmine has become a different person in the last few days. "Smiley.. quiet.. almost like she's in love

sorry..jasmine=sloppy seconds..casey=lovely.

well yeah.obviously when you compare him to the stupid morons who really need to start acting like the grown adults they are instead of a load of children then yeah of course we need another boring winner..of course though jim isn't that..slow burner and ready to pounce at the right moment..just watch.:dance:

I look forward to it :dance:

I'm not fond of the stupid morons either. Ollie's my winner! :dance:

I like Ollie too Jet,but how is he more entertaining than Jim?:conf: he is quiet and hasn't done a lot

He is obviously a lovely person and when the producers actually give him screen time he is charming, funny, endearing and intelligent. He throws himself into every task with enjoyment and and gets on effortlessly with everyone.
He's not intimidated by the louder personalities and he doesn't feel he has to push himself forward with any silly nonsense but is always just himself.
He's the type who will come into his own when there are fewer loud mouths in the house. :dance:

I hope they carry on. He can dish it but can't take it.

In fact he's probably seething inside because it's a woman doing the dishing.

She's a sleekit cow. I really really hope Jim outstays her!

You've hit the nail on the head.
