I'm surprised there isn't a thread about this already. I've watched the new contestants enter the House on afternoon TV and thought it looked quite entertaining. Half of them are previous attendees and the other half newbies. Heidi and Spencer are back, Callum Best is back with his Mum, Angie as a newbie.
I hadn't planned to watch it, but scrolling through the channels thought I'd give it a look. Anyone else watching it?

Watched part of it again - is shown between 2 and 3pm on a channel called 5*
Stacey was 'edited out' and wasn't happy, complained of being cold and was let back in the house. Spencer tried to reason with her that she had to suck it up. James C also 'edited out' but seemed very happy to have a snooze in his chair.
Some drama re Stacey and other US singer which I haven't really understood.
Will watch again tomorrow afternoon, but not worth bothering in the evening slot.

Audience for this must be just about zero these days surely?

Astonishingly, 1-3 million people still watch this cr*p. But viewing figures are sliding, and this year's cohort are almost completely unknown, so it is probably only a matter of time before the axe falls.

It has been really bad from what I've seen so far. They haven't exactly brought back the best characters from old.

the celebrities are celebrities because all they do are shows like this. but it is easy money for some, lowest gets about 15k, highest a million.

I'm hoping to watch it tonight. Ideally I hope Coleen is in a sexy pair of shorts and a crop top PJ thing.

Who is the highest and lowest? £15k isn't much for doing that for 5 weeks.

Stacey had a fight with Whitney Houston 2 days before she died other US singer could have backed her up and said it wasn't her fault but he stayed quiet

The song they came in to and their dodgy choreography was cringe worthy laugh

I'm finding it quite entertaining to watch biggrin
Sunday's secret tasks were amusing. The elder James leading a Shetland pony through the house without Bianca seeing was funny.
Last night's nominations caused the 2 who had the most votes to get all upset by it. 'Why me' wails Stacy on 5 votes, then Austen on 4 tells her she's too loud...more wailing from Stacy. One of the girls gets drunk and makes a fool of herself trying to wrap herself around a few of the lads. Austen also has too much to drink and rants off to them all for voting for him.

Browsing and I saw this was on, thought it was a repeat for a while, the same bunch of no-hopers and losers desperate for attention.
I did notice James Cosmo in the background, the only one I can see who has talent or has achieved anything.
The cameras don't go to him, they are more keen on staying with the usual acting up tosspots. biggrin

I don't know why RJ got thrown off (apart from being talentless) but apparantley he is suing the show
