Don't get me started on Big Brother. There's nothing more boring than being sat in, watching people being sat in. I thank my lucky stars that I have a life and don't need to watch this dross..

Well said Lettie...it's all dross.

Thank god I can't get UK TV programmes :engsmil:

I couldn't watch Big Brother - especially not the way some people do (live and continuous) but I'm A Celebrity does feature more things in the challenges than just eating bugs (which I don't think I'd be able to do myself - not the live ones). Some of the things like crossing ravines on narrow bridges (not actually a challenge but quite a challenging thing) and the one Sheila Ferguson did last night crawling under a thing which kept getting lower are things which I would find challenging but might actually be able to attempt if push came to shove and so I can admire people who actually have a go. (Too many 'things' in that paragraph!)

I would rather watch something real than soap operas. One of my favourite programs at present is Brainiac probably because it's totally mad and a far from scientific approach to science.

But then you miss out on great programmes like Spooks and Hustle, and Murray Walker saying things like 'the boot's on the other Schumacher'!!!

(I am making a huge assumption that you watch Formula 1 here!)

'the boot's on the other Schumacher'!!!

We have our own resident commentator idiots who talk...and talk...and talk...and talk. These guys talk for Europe!! With Formula 1 I can turn the sound off, and still watch Schumacher win! Ralph has just started supporting Porno Shops...I think he believes he'll get free samples!!

Mind you I do miss a couple of UK programmes...but the other 98% is regular dross, and not missed at all

Maybe he wants to try them on his boyfriends (if you believe the press)
