… you just heard is a significant part of my life being sucked into the void that is Celebrity Big Brother. Sad I know. Brief comments after the jump to protect those that haven’t seen the launch show yet. Or those that just don’t care.
Quick aside: I know Scotmid is the store that gets beaten up and laughed at by all the other supermarkets, but no bread? no rolls? no eggs? The only thing that stopped me walking out in disgust was that I needed brown sauce, and they only had one bottle of that left that wasn’t the nasty-generic-co-op own brand stuff.
The line up for CBB5 isn’t terribly star studded, but then it never is. It seems to have some entertainment value but it wasn’t until Dirk Benedict walked in that I knew I’d be watching the series. I’d figured him for an early favourite but the crowd reaction makes me think otherwise. Although Blue Square has Jo O’Meara as favourite I think that Leo Sayer or Ian ‘H’ Watkins are more likely to take it.
If nothing else there seems to be enough of a lunatic fringe ::cough::KenFuckingRussell::cough:: to keep me entertained for a bit. With rumours of the house next door coming back, Jade Goody and family moving in and who-knows what else we’ll just have to wait and see.
Yes, I know how sad I am. There’s no need to tell me.
