Big Brother 3 is starting on Friday and I'm really looking forward to it. The thing is I don't know why.

Can someone explain the attraction of this programme?

Blimey Donut. No I can't explain it. Go have a drink and a lie down, maybe you'll feel better later. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

BIG BROTHER II is on at the moment in OZ - in fact the daily episode comes on in 15 mins. Ooooh, what fun, what joy - what a great opportunity to watch the footy channel instead

"Big Brother", "Survivor", and their ilk are one reason why I no longer watch TV, and only use the Internet and listen to radio.

Agreed. But in Australia we have a few more reasons such as Home and Away, Neighbours, Temptation Island etc. [img]graemlins/1puke.gif[/img]

I feel that watching reality tv has become an obsession to those people who do not have a life of their own.
