When you sit at a pavement cafe watching people(or in a pub for that matter) the people aren't aware that you are watching them....with BB, the people know they are being watched and this somehow skews the values of what they do........all the people who go into this show are wannabes. They want to be 'famous' without having to put the hard graft into it....and without having anything in the way of talent. It is also rather cruel the way the producers manipulate the housemates.
No......not my cup of tea at all.

After the anonymity of series one, when they didn't know if anyone was bothering to tune in, watching the desperate fight for 'fame' is part of the fun of viewing.
It's like Lord of the Flies, but with adult degenerates fighting for survival.
A cruel sport I enjoy spectating.
