Shilpa Shetty though has just a few days of bullying to be put through and the returnd will be fantastic. the other point is that this cynical piece of marketing has added millions to Edemol's profile and surprise surprise.. its for sale. Yes folks its on the market for a incredible price and for what ? Its crap T.v , hardly challenging to the creativity of its participants, makers, workers, coordinators , directors or money pushers. The real disgrace is to the makers et al FOR being real rubbish when in fact they could be making programmes that inform, reveal, educate and awe. these people were once aspiring film makers, documentarists and true artists now they merely pay the mortgage and sleep the sleep we mostly all sleep that of past its.

These Z-list so called stars should not be given any air time on our tv's. All three are complete morons. You only had look at Jade's mother and listen to her remarks to know how Jade must have been dragged up. I am indian and i was bulled in school by the likes of these three evil witches.

The Sun's reaction to the whole debate has been especially interesting, given that Gary Bushell used to write for them. Oh - and the Daily Express asked what all the fuss was about, suggesting we should be concentrating on more important things. This was from the paper that holds the front page if a member of the Royal Family farts. Anyway, great article. Nice to read an article that hasn’t gone completely nuts about this.

Then they decided to go for the money & 'entertain' the masses. Though how something like Big Brother is 'entertainment', let alone 'reality' is just beyond me. I shall visit the library again. With books the pictures are better! Once upon a time Channel 4 tried to be ‘different’ & produce & broadcast quality programmes. Then they decided to go for the money & ‘entertain’ the masses.

Can it really be such a surprise that we get tension and insults when sticking an actual superstar (not to mention the legendary Dirk B) in with, well, Z-list scum? Haven't been watching, so I can't tell if the girls were just racist because they wanted to insult her any way possible, or if they're actually ignorant bigotted freaks... but since Blair and Brown are in India right now, Endemol must be *loving* it! “Jade in ‘complete moron’ shocker.”
