Just as The X Factor has upped the sob stories and stopped producing stars; Big Brother has slid down the pan too.
I do wish we had more stimulating housemates to watch - I'm not expecting a house full of Derek Lauds but some brain cells to match the soft core porn would be nice.

..yeah, it's not that it doesn't need the drama etc and to cause controversy and 'shock' to some extent, it's just that there is no balance to it and I think there has to be that in everything otherwise it all becomes same old, same old and just burns itself out...and I know it's the same old thing but I do think it's because of the lack of livefeed which used to give us 'the normal bits' and the normal conversations etc...the rest of it is probably no different to what it always was but it just seems more and very much one thing because that's all we're shown...
