What little I`ve seen of it, most of the inmates you would cross the road to avoid while some seem to have serious mental problems.
You could say the same thing about spectators of anything, sport, a chamber orchestra, strippers.

It is a bit like paying your penny to stare at the inmates of Bedlam, except these lunatics chose to go in there for our amusement.

Like I've said before I love BB because I never had the opportunity to watch rats in a cage as a child. Besides people watching is fun, be it on the Croisette at Cannes or a secured set in Elstree. Everyone can play at being Freud as we watch these attention seekers either fall apart or survive.
