Story from Ananova
The official Vatican newspaper has attacked the Big Brother reality TV phenomenon as useless and parasitical.
The Osservatore Romano described the housemates as empty protagonists, and the viewers as people full of morbid curiosity.
Big Brother has become a big hit in Italy, but the newspaper asked how so many could watch such a tedious programme, when the world situation was so serious.
In Italy, where the show is known as Grande Fratello, more than eight million people tune in every day to watch the latest events in the Big Brother house in Rome.
Viewers did not have to wait long for sex between two of the contestants - who jumped into bed within hours of the programme starting, although they were already boyfriend and girlfriend.

They really don't like BB, do they?
And I'm not sure I like being described as 'full of morbid curiosity' . . . . HOW RUDE!
As for those two Italian contestants . . . . words fail me!! And how on earth did an existing boyfriend and girlfriend manage to get into the house together ??
