I am genuinely going to apply.
What proportion of the contestants will be straight, white and non-disabled?
They'll all be influencers.
It’s ITV. 12 Phillip Schofields.
'TUH-WELVE ORDINARY BRITONS...'
*five blacks*
*four gays (one a Muslim) and three bi*
*two trannies, one passing one horrendous*
*wheelchair*
*enormous white woman*
"Big Brother, why are there no gender neutral bathrooms?"
Pronouns during the introductions
Think yous are looking for the Daily Mail comment sections, lads.
I'm just playing the percentages for the kind of people who would live in a house full of strangers for TV time. Infleuncers and people who spend most of their day on twitter.
I've been monitoring all the Christmas adverts again.
There's one Christmas advert (the one with 'we're gonna need a bigger bowl') where every second person in a massive crowd is black, but absolutely no one is south Asian. Unless it's set in a very specific part of Lambeth or Southwark, there's something very strange afoot with that stuff.
Was just at KFC after a couple of pints and a sorry looking man, early 30s maybe, stumbled up to us and started making conversation. Ex army and just made homeless. Suddenly apologised and went outside and fell down sobbing. Brutal. Probably should have bought him some wings or something.
Well I have posted that in completely the wrong thread
Is he applying?
Probably not the worst shout tbf.
For maximum entertainment/carnage, who would people choose for a TTHBB?
dquincy
Foe
Don
Lewis
Yevrah
Giggles
Baz
Sincere
phonics
Pleb
Waff
Mellin
With Harold entering anonymously after a few days.
That’s a lot of accents.
I'd probably switch someone out for Magic.
And swap Harold with the Kickboxer.
Smiffy obviously has to be there.
Nevermind BB, BBC have got The Traitors airing 3 episodes a week (Tues-Thurs) which is just a game of Werewolf. You could potentially miss a lot when you don't get access to the full conversations so the fate of the show rests in the editors hands but the cast is actually good. They've got some absolutely pointless challenge element as filler but with 2 kills a day, it should only last about 3 weeks and I'm 2 episodes in and there's already been enough entertainment for it to have me subscribed.

I watched an ep of that the other day, proper guilty pleasure TV. And yes, the first vote out was amazing.
It's back. Let's discuss it in here so we don't disrupt the thrilling chat about igor's 900th run through of The Wire and people discussing the brand new show, Ozark.
Trish to win.

Spikey is a nonce. Pass it on.
Get rid of Kerry and Hallie, and I reckon I’d happily watch the rest of them live there for months.
I'm a twit
Hallie ain’t ever getting put up for eviction through fear of hating on trannies. Doubt Kerry gets put up again for at least a week or two as well now which is unfortunate
Hmm, Zak seems to have played his ‘toxic masculinity’ card early. Can’t see him lasting whenever he’s up for public vote.
I'm a twit
This has been very enjoyable so far.
I'm a twit
Why’s Paul in there? Jenkin mentioned how they’re al representing minorities and yeah I guess so. What’s Paul’s? Being scouse.
Even Tom is borderline, by just being a bit of a weirdo, but everyone else is easy. Trans, gays, amputee, black/refugee, fat, autist, Scottish, etc.
Actually, Chanelle? Unless she’s a burns victim or something, which would explain her Bo Selecta look.
I'm a twit
Hallie gone? Oh lord, just Kerry to go now.
Is it just one eviction this week? Either way, Chanelle’s a gonner. Don’t mess with our Trish.
I'm a twit
Genuinely sad. Could happily watch for another few weeks.
I'm a twit
It is great but I'm looking forward to having that hour of my evening back.
Been enjoying betting on it, mostly stinkers (lol at the opening night punt on Kerry) but managed some obscene prices on outsiders.
Trish
Obviously producer decisions make it hard to have any real idea but I predict they'll leave in this order:
Chanelle
Jenkin
Noky
Tom
Jordan
Matty
Henry
Olivia
Trish
Yinrun
Olivia top 3. Surely not.
She's going to lack allies in the house but probably has mega public backing. Attractive relatable white girl that's entertaining to watch vs a load of gays/blacks/weirdos. Henry might get 3rd though aye.
Crazy. Henry would have went out near the start if it wasn’t for Fiat 500 Twitter wanting to see Jordan have a gay pal
The love triangle stuff has been awful and completely producer driven. It's wrecked any chance Jordan had of winning and put Henry in contention from absolutely nowhere.
