O god , big brother has started again .

I've stopped watching broadcast tv years ago. I wouldn't even know if BB was still a thing if not for this thread.

I automatically read that as bottom bracket - I guess that's a good thing !

I've never watched it, some reality tv is ok but not this

 

[Vapin' Joe]

I'm on it.

Watched about 20 minutes of the first ever Big Brother and realised what a total crock it was.

Never watched another - would rather stick red hot pokers in my eyes.

The original concept was a good idea but now it is a bunch of unpleasant people desperate for attention. Celebrity BB is a general game of 'who is that?'

The bit that got me (when it was originally shown) was that photosynthasis only works with wave theory, it breaks down using a partical model. So the basis of all flora on Earth does not obey the proven laws of Physics, but follows a model that is still up for discussion. Mad.

Missed that bit TVC. TBH I didn't think that photosynthesis mechanism was understood at all. I feel a Google coming on

That's why there's an off button....

Wait you mean terrestrial telly is on in your house?

You have heard of the Internet right?

There's this other thing called Netflix.

It doesn't have Big Brother, Wife Swap, How Fat Is Your House, or any of that other shoot.

Ive not seen it for about 10 years so wouldnt know anyone in it.

is it still going? you'd think the participants would have escaped somehow by this time

They're too busy ganging up against Nasty Nick to think about escaping

The total of all Big Brother TV I've watched is about 10 seconds - the sum of all times I've realised it's there and turned it off or retuned.

Same goes for the celebrities in the jungle programme, and Eastenders, and quite a few more.

Tempted to delete Channel 5, 5+1, and anywhere else it might appear from the channel list for the duration.

Same goes for all physics, and in fact all science. It isn't science if there's no route to falsifying it. That's what makes science work. Quantum mechanics is just as much a proven law of physics as is relativity or any other. There's a load more to learn about it, but what we do know works and gives useful and good predictions and results. (And don't use the cliché of suggesting gravity as a proven theory, as physicists only know what it does, not what it is!)

Plenty more besides photosynthesis is 'quantum mechanical'. Start with the semiconductor parts of your computer, not to mention your brain!

And the drive for Cowells x mas number one has started again as well ......................

I saw an article in the Metro being discussed In the staff room

A poem actress, two wannabes famous because of "leaked" sex tapes and. Guy who once went out with someone famous


The only one I had seen was the porn actress actor who used to be in the Bill fifteen years ago
