Like I said, as an adult I get the need for them being there, and enjoy it on some level, but aren't we worried about the example it sets for those who don't know the difference?

Just my two cents.

And although I'm Canadian, I was raised by two loving parents from Manchester.
But Denise is already a CBB champion

Like Shaun says I'm not sure the youth of today are looking at the CBB winner as any kind of role model.

Exactly Cherie.


From a South Africans view point BB is car crash telly and I highly doubt anyone is watching it seeking some sort of moral compass .

I hope you're right, but it's a sad fact that reality stars in North America are looked upon as role models. Paris Hilton and Kim Kardashians both released sex tapes and were rewarded with their own shows plus millions of dollars in endorsements.

It's naive to believe in the UK it's any different.

I might add I don't think any of the others are that brilliant as role models either.

Rylan is a cartoon character.
Claire is desperate.
Razor is trying way too hard.
Ryan is just weird.

I think I liked Gillian the best.

Agree with you on that one,not sure I would want my kids to be looking at any of them as potential role models.
