I'm a Celebrity...............................

[Ladygooner]

Is anyone else enjoying this programme at the moment? Never been a big fan of Christopher Biggins but he has me crying with laughter! And what about Marc and Cerys? Things are really hotting up there!

[atila the gooner]

I hate "reality" shows with a vengeance, as they are about as realistic as Englands chances of winning Euro 2008, or the next world cup.

[Brendan]

I?m an idiot. Get me on television.

[georgia]

Not really been watching this series but I like to keep up with the gossip! More a fan of X Factor and Strictly Come Dancing...sad I know

[Keef]

Haven't seen any of this yet, but wouldn't mind being in a tent with Cerys Matthews for a few nights, especially as she's recently split from her husband and may well be looking for a rebound fling! >:D<

Is it true that Katie from the last Apprentice is in it? She was a fecking nutter wasn't she?

I don't like a lot of reality stuff, but got in to the last apprentice (having not seen any of the first 2 series), and loved it! These people are incredibly stupid!

[georgia]

Ah yes The Apprentice is great. Makes me feel that maybe my job isn't so bad after all - at least I don't have to design accessories for dogs

[BarryRoad]

Why isn't there a 24 hour video stream from inside the CPT?

Out of closing hours we could watch people watching TV upstairs. It would be awesome.

[Ladygooner]

Keef and Georgia you must watch it! So entertaining! Cerys is definitely looking for lurve and Marc (ex eastenders) is gonna be in trouble with his girlfriend! Yes Katie is in it and not an annoying as I thought she would be - at least not as annoying at Lynn Franks!

Prefer Strictly to the X Factor - I must get out more!

[mockney piers]

Oh BR, I'm sooo tempted to post a video of someone watching the TV!!

[atila the gooner]

I think the creators of "The Royle Family" beat you to it!!!

Problem is, they'd have to do that thing where they blank out the sound for pretty much all of it!

I too harbour those thoughts....

Then one day, about 2004 'spose I was on the train back from Cardiff to London and went for a coffe. Nice girl in front in the queue, who I was admiring. She turned around and it was Cerys.

"It's You" I said, then immediately though to myself "You cock"

"It is" She replied, giggled and walked back to first class...

I like to think it was a cheeky "Follow me" giggle.....but I could have been mistaken. The "You're a cock" giggle is very similar...

[citizenED]

Title of thread changed to "I'm a Nonentity...."

The Mock Administrator

[ratty]

I am watching it and it is FAF!

Apparrently Cerys Whatsit is a bit of a man eater so Bannerman best watch out. According to my sources she is a cockacidal maniac!!

[Ladygooner]

Excuse my ignorance - what is FAF?

[SeanMacGabhann]

Funny as F...

Or so I believe LadyG

[Ladygooner]

Well then I agree! Who do we want voted out tonight? I love most of the characters but surely Anna "Changing rooms" RR and Gemma "I sleep with Man U footballers" have been very dull and not contributed much?

[SeanMacGabhann]

I haven't watched any of this series so can't comment

I won't join others and dismiss this and other shows as complete bobbins but I am partly upset that Cerys is taking part as I still consider her a "going concern" in the music business and shouldn't need the publicity

The other reason I'm less interested these days is the sense that, rather than the drama unfolding and being edited to suit (bad enough) the whiff of scripting before things happen bothers me too. Oh and then there are the ads. And the bleedin phone lines (those are still happening are they?)

[Brendan]

heh heh heh

"cockacidal maniac"

heh heh heh

[clare]

Dec (or Ant )

"The phone lines are now closed. If you continue to phone you will be charged for the call...... "

[SeanMacGabhann]

Hardly foolproof is it AntDec creature? But then that's the point I guess - "we know we have been introuble, but we also know some of you are stupid enough to chuck money away anyway so here's our get out clause - ker-CHING!"

What's wrong with a good old-fashioned "engaged" tone... it was free and you know you haven't got through...

[Ladygooner]

I never waste my money calling these shows. But why can't they just disconnect the lines so even if you do call after the cut off time you can't get through and won't be charged?

[SeanMacGabhann]

oooh spooky LadyG - same thought, same time

[Keef]

Not sure it's so much about the publicity with our Cerys. She's just split with her hubby, and might have thought it worth it just to get away from all that. Plus she's had various issues for some time, I don't think she's a very well girl... I still would though!

[SeanMacGabhann]

I know around the time of the Catatonia split she was in a VERY bad way but I thought things had improved a lot since then

It could be argued that going on a show like this just after a split is the worst time to do so -

As for your last point, absolutely
