I hate it. Hopefully this will be a convenient excuse to ban it!!

But with the money to be made by getting a couple of million people to put £1 on their phone bill every week, I guess that would be too much to hope for

It's a sad reflection of how ths country has become. If Goody, Lloyd and O'Meara represent the current British classless society, then heaven help us. Goody is a foul mouthed, nasty, uneducated excuse with a massive inferiority complex. The only thing she is not is stupid. She is sly, cunning and controlling. The other two pathetic excuses are stupid and terrified of Goody. They'd rather side with her than risk being on the wrong end of her wrath. Lloyd is too stupid to know whether her comments could be considered racist or not and could be in danger of suffering from a backlash on leaving the house. If I were Teddy Sherringham, I'd be showing her a size nine and changing the locks. The whole thing is very sad. If Shilpa should need comforting after her traumatic experience, she only needs to call.

I'm still not quite sure why they call a contrived set up like this 'reality' TV. It's further removed from reality than I'd ever want to be.
