It's that time of year again when Emma Willis gets all excited and we count try to figure out who the devil the 'celebrities' are. Initially there's a backlash as we fail to recognise anyone outside of former X Factor or Apprentice contestants and maybe the odd soap...

Celebrity Big Brother: The Housemates
Here it is once again another show featuring so called ‘celebrities’ with the z-list truly plundered to get a full cast for another series of Celebrity Big Brother. If I was a betting man, and I’m not, I would hazard to guess that the majority of people would know at...
Big Brother: A more diverse week in the House
Last week I was beginning to fear this series would start to become a little boring after super bitch Lydia was evicted, but there was no need to worry as this series has managed to remain entertaining. I have been surprised that some housemates including Scott,...
Big Brother: A week of bullies and bitching
This series of Big Brother is turning out to be one of the best series ever, however, this week the show has hit a difficult patch. The problem is that the series is very entertaining and interesting to watch but it lacks that essence of fun and humour which all...
Another week of madness in the Big Brother House
We are well into this series of Big Brother and it is around this time the early potential of a series starts to materialise or fade. In this case of this thirteenth series, I’m glad to say that the entertainment is still as good as it was in the first couple of days...
The first week in the Big Brother House
Big Brother launched 10 days ago which seems so distant now because so much has happened in the house. For me, it has been the best start to a series since the golden era which was 2004-2006, and is a significant improvement on last year’s first civilian series on...
Big Brother Launch Night 2012
A look at the night Big Brother returned to Channel 5 Here we go. The daddy of reality TV is back with it’s second ‘normal’ series since moving to Channel 5. Last year was a slight disappointment with a very TOWIE approach taken with a focus on relationships, sex and...
Celebrity Big Brother Launch Show
So last year I was an adult. I was a grown up. OK so I hadn’t quite reached the pipe and slippers stage but I felt a better person, more educated, more rounded, more sophisticated and just generally a better person. Jump forward twelve months and just three lackluster...
Luke on TV – Big Brother, Benidorm and Brits with Talent
I swear I’ll never mature as year after year I’m sucked into Big Brother, both irritated and strangely fascinated. Here’s my view of the 16 non housemates. Freddie - This posh lad who has a strange obsession with furry hats is by no means the most irritating of the,...
Jade: As Seen On TV, E4
Did we like it? A biography revised with as much obsequious apotheosis as the inglorious chronicle of the brutal Alexander ‘the Great’ about a young woman who, while relentlessly unpleasant, also suffered a fate far more terrible than she, or indeed anybody, deserves....
Dead Set, E4
Did we like it? This is an amazingly good piece of television, melding Big Brother with zombie horror in a stunning, fast, furious way. What was good about it? • The script by Charlie Brooker (The Guardian's misanthropic columnist) is remarkably versatile: there's...
Big Brother’s Little Brother, E4
Did we like it? The TV equivalent of falling on your head, getting up and shaking your aching bonce only to hear the shattered fragments of your brain and skull rattling around inside. What was good about it? • We watched the morning repeat on Channel 4 that meant our...
Luke ON TV: Big Brother Launch Night
I sit here completely ashamed. Since September 2007, I've been fooling myself that I could abstain Big Brother. When last year’s below par effort finished, I swore to myself I would not bother with series nine. Flash forward nine months and here I am, feeling slightly...
Big Brother Launch Show, Channel 4
Did we like it? In a way, yes. Almost everyone is so horrendous that there's no way we're going to be watching all the way through to September. Thanks, Channel 4. You have saved us from wasting hours of viewing time over 93 days and from having to indulge in...
Big Brother: Celebrity Hijack, E4
Did we like it? An old maxim ‘necessity is the mother of invention’ applies as for the first time in its history BB – which during that period has been the bastard child of insipidity – has been coerced into innovation. And while they’ve scurried for the safety of the...
Big Brother 8, Channel 4
Big Brother, From Here To Eternity, 2007, Channel 4 Why we’ve given up on Big Brother 1. Every single eviction is predictable. We’re writing this just after it’s been announced that Jonathan is ‘bookies’ favourite’ for the chop. He may as well pack his bags now. For...
Celebrity Big Brother – The Final, Channel 4
The final Celebrity Big Brother chart in association with Next Stop Hell, a charitable organisation that employs divine intervention to calculate what charity penance each sinning celebrity must make to be washed clean of all sin. 1. Shilpa. Someone must have been...
Celebrity Big Brother, Channel 4
The Celebrity Big Brother chart brought to you in association with Wood Beer – ale scraped from the bottom of the barrel that fizzes with the rapture of senseless applause. 1. Donny Tourette. For Celebrity Big Brother there need to be repulsive, decadent scum in order...
