Advantages: Its only on for two weeks

Disadvantages: Its on at all

Ugh, Channel 4 wheel out their annual cash cow hoping to instigate the publicity and controversy elicited in previous series.

Reality tv has evolved into a career with people actually just moving between reality shows and making a lucrative career from it.

Ok, so occasionally the idea of a group of disparate people in a house has proved interesting and the dynamic challenged viewers but this is simply a popularity competition and the viler the person, the more likely channel 4 are to put them in their for our viewing pleasure!!!!

Put in some ladies who wear skimpy outfits (tick), somebody who was once on the tv a lot but now can't get a program (tick) failed boy and girlband singers (tick), B-List American film star (tick) sibling of mad Jackson (tick), controversial politician (tick).

The format is tired, the ideas have gone, this is simply a way for channel 4 to squeeze every last text out of us and then pay non entities like Ulrika Jonsson £160,000 for a weeks work.

Please channel 4 put them out of their misery, nobody's watching anymore!!!

Summary: Vacuous, pointless and less entertaining than swallowing a mouthful of stinging nettles!
