Steve, I probably should leave this here, but seriously, it was a completely spontaneous comment by Davina who does a lot of ad libbing with the crowd between live sessions.
I wasn't Brian's biggest fan either, and I have been attacked on that often enough.
I am aware of the criticism that some of us are stuck in 2001, but that is because nothing has equalled the excitement and involvement a lot of us felt for BB2. I certainly wouldn't have been posting on here without it.
The crowd was filled with evey possible sort of person, regardless of age, size, with and without banners. People dressed as Mr Tickle, people in Chicken costumes, which, I think resembled Marjorie more than any of the BB4 chickens, but we didn't mind.
The crowd had a carnival atmosphere, with a bit of 'Dunkirk spirit' thrown in thanks to surviving the deluge together.
We were grateful of any diversion, the dafter the better.
Posters ranged from dire to works of art, but all were interesting, especially if all you have looked at for 7 hours is the brolly in front of you and the rain has made your sandwiches soggy.
If you can't take a little leg-pulling after all this time from someone like me, it's a poor do. We go back a long way don't we?
Let's leave it there shall we?
