    I'm surprised no-one has started a thread yet. Even if only to slag it off and say how much they hate reality TV!!

    Anyone watching?

    I'll be first to admit it - I am!! :D

    A good way to while away dull November evenings.

    Apparently Vic Reeves has just gone in!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,978 ✭✭✭445279.ie


    Yeah - heard that on the radio this morning. Should be interesting. Apparently his wife says they make love 20 time a week, so maybe thats what the producers are hoping for!!! :rolleyes:

    Mustn't be getting the viewers already, Reeves wouldn't be stupid enough to have sex on TV, its all a bit sad really.

    Boo to all reality TV.

    Yep. I'm putting myself in cryogenics until this show has run its
    course.

    I would rather eat bugs myself than watch it...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,492 ✭✭✭trotter_inc


    Ive been watching it and think its great - they drag it out a little though - very little happens in the hour apart from the bush tucker trial!

    Will still continue to watch it though - bush tucker trials are getting better each year too - thought Nicoles one was hilarious!


    I cant stand that Janet Street Porter one - she's such a whinge bag - did you hear complaining about Vic coming into the camp - she said she signed a contract to be in the jungle with 9 other people and not 10.... its for charity ffs!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 412 ✭✭Frank Drebin


    I wish they'd get some real celebs for these things!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 981 ✭✭✭flikflak


    Brian Harvey has walked out of the show.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,197 ✭✭✭Spalk0


    That Natalie appleton really got on my nerves when i turned it on last night!I mean ive never heard so much whining from someone i would have just told her "Shut the F*ck up and get in the tank and get it over with!".......Mind you, that second tank looked minging!

    My thoughts exactly!

    lol
    It should be called "I'm NOT a celebrity (in the slightest)".

    Why did I not think of that!

    ...because you're not as quick as I am ;)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,575 ✭✭✭elivsvonchiaing


    Antonio - Huggy Bear - yes - Celebrity
    Vic Reeves - comedian heard of him - just about a celebrity
    Janet Street Porter - we've all heard of - Celebrity? Kinda pushing it tbh!
    Paul Burrell - a butler or something some years ago...

    The rest of them... :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,264 ✭✭✭JBoyle4eva


    If you'd like to take the piss out of I'm a celebrity, then UKG2 are showing a 2 minute daily program: "I'm a shellebrity: Kepe me in here" around 8:30 every night with 10 snails named after celebs in a tank. Live coverage @ ww.uktv.co.uk

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 412 ✭✭Frank Drebin


    The only one of them anywhere near being a celebrity was Johnny Rotten!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,828 ✭✭✭robo


    Natelie Appleton has walked now...cos she was voted for her 5th Bushtucker trial...so will they bring someone new on to replace her?

    Really don't like this cr@p but have ended up watching it...aghh!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 28 McFairyland


    she's gone?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,978 ✭✭✭445279.ie


    yeah. She left at 10.30 aussie time. Couldn't take having to do a 5th Bush Tucker Trial.

    Thank God the moaning has finished!!! :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 28 McFairyland


    ohh did she get sick? she seemed to alway be "getting sick"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,016 ✭✭✭mad m

    i think it goes on till sunday or two weeks from start date..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,492 ✭✭✭trotter_inc


    The sooner the better this crap is over!

    I was a big fan of the previous couple of years but this year's show is pure sh*t!

    I wouldnt even class these people as celebrities, but hey its for charity!!

    too long is right frank


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,492 ✭✭✭trotter_inc


    So Vic is gone then!

    Dont think he'll be missed - he's not the person I thought he'd be, wasnt entertaining in the sligthest! I thought he'd be hilarious, he was great on all his shows with Bob Mortimer.

    I'd say Huggy will go tonight.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 981 ✭✭✭flikflak


    Yeah I`d say Huggy will go tonight. His game plan seems to be say nothing and when you do make sure its "words of wisdom".

    He is too boring - Janet and Paul snapping at each other is what we want!

    Agree that Vic/Jim was very quiet but I had heard that he is quite a quiet person off screen.

    Really liked Nancy though and can see why they are together. At first i thought she was going to be an annoying model type but she was actually a really nice person and funny too.

    Cant believe Huggy didnt go out last night - he's so boring!

    Have to say Im starting to like Paul now, he was quite funny yesterday!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,197 ✭✭✭Spalk0


    Nah im glad the other one went out!she's a bit headwrecking!

    Now i hope yer one Janet goes now!She has a voice that goes through my head!Plus the others would have to cook then!

    She's funny though. At least she's mucking in unlike Sheila who went last night. She was great at giving orders and sitting around.

    I'd say/hope Huggy will go tonight

    Yeah maybe she would be funny if could actually hear and understand her through that screech that goes on in your head!

    Maybe its just me i dunno what she says half the time!

    Watched an hour of it the other day....dire. Like most reality tv, except starring pseudo-famous losers doing pointless ****e.

    "It's for charity". Big bloody wow. Am I the only person who thinks that, if charity was the main concern, perhaps the money spent on producing the entire show could have just been donated straight off, instead of being spent on putting a bunch of idiots on tv? (and, please, no excuses about publicity. I don't think any charity in the world benefits in a tangible sense from being associated with Natalie appleton whining at length about mouldy fishheads)

    I agree its a big pile of crap...but I end up watching it anyway...hmm

    I hope they keep Paul and Janet in it...they are the most entertaining of the lot.

    I think perhaps Paul will probably win.

    I hope Sophie goes soon...(if she has not already)..I can't stand her!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,230 ✭✭✭OLDYELLAR


    Its possibly the worst programme ever aired!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,492 ✭✭✭trotter_inc


    So Huggy's gone - dont think he'll be really missed by anyone in the camp!

    Not many left now, Id say the last two left will be Joe and Janet/Paul, hope Joe wins, he's quite funny!

    What gets me, is that you never hear what charities the "celebs" are supporting, or who the money goes to when it is over. Not even a mention on the website, plus only about half of the cost of the votes goes to charity... its all an excuse to get their gobs on tv. Yer man Brian said when he was evicted that his agent had told him a pack of lies that they all got pizza when the cameras were off and he never would have gone otherwise!!!!
    thats doing it for charity alright!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,492 ✭✭✭trotter_inc

    They always ask the celeb who wins which charity they are supporting on the last night of the show.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,136 ✭✭✭holly_johnson


    Fair enough, but it's still only one charity mentioned in the whole fortnight of programming.

    I would have thought that the "celebs" should be plugging the charity throughout?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,492 ✭✭✭trotter_inc


    So it down to the last three.... Paul, Fran and Joe.

    Who do you think will win?

    Id say it'll be between Paul and Joe meself!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 84 ✭✭Ro_79


    I'd say Paul will win...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,492 ✭✭✭trotter_inc

    Yeah - he has been quite fuuny over the past few days alright - apart from yesterday whe he was fighting with Fran - he was acting like a right baby!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 55,571 ✭✭✭✭Mr E


    Haven't really been following it, but was watching it a few days ago. Pauls challenge with the hellholes had me laughing out loud... it was very funny stuff.
