Is this British society???
I'm sorry but is this representative (or even remotely so) of our society????? We have 3 gays, a lesbo/nutcase and a post-op. What is the point in being straight these days - its just a matter of time until we are over-run and everyone just ***** anything that has a pulse 
I'm not even homophobic, each to their own but I really can't be assed to watch 12 people of which 1/3rd are not straight, 1/3rd are total weirdo's and the other 3rd are as thick as **** or arrogant.
Please, please, please can we have someone remotely normal next year. Hell, chuck chaos in or something - at least he's normal by comparison

don't be silly, SB.
it is purely representative of C4s attempt to get some ratings by getting the most off their fookin head c**ts that they could find and sticking them into a bungalow.
nice plan.

Personally I’d rather see the sort of people I might meet every day in the real world. I hope they are all too controversial and the bloody thing gets banned. That will teach them to try and manufacture sex, arguments and controversy.

dont get this "its great to be gay" attitude that is on the TV at the mo !! Graham Norton, that cross dressing Lilly Savage thing, that "Fairy Godfather" prog ....the list goes on !
Why is this being forced down our throats (for want of a better phrase
) now in such high quanties? Is it fashionable to be gay ?
It is almost a form exploitation or affirmitave action of homosexuals. % wise I just feel it is being overdone.

Henrick - in all honesty, it isn't the best. however, i couldn't bring to mind the names of any more memorable flicks (always tend to fast forward the opening sequence and credits).

Are you perhaps getting confused with Question Time? What's more scary is the viewers of the zoo, not the inhabitants. It is sad reflection of society when more votes are cast for this zoo, than a more important place, albeit still perhaps a zoo, residing in London under Big Ben

Only a third are as thick as ****, it would need to be 75% if was to be representative of the UK so I guess the answer to your question is no, this is not British society.

sounds like you guys don't yet get the hour-long American TV programme 'Queer Eye for a Straight Guy'; plays here at prime time on one of the major channels featuring 5(?) camp gentlemen advising 1 supposed heterosexual gentleman each week on how to dress and behave properly.
I honestly can't bring myself to watch it (nothing to do with the fact it clashes with that slice of normal English life 'EastEnders' )
...oh, and while we're on the subject - do you want Michael Barrymore back ? - he's just got NZ citizenship.

I've not watched a whole edition yet, and given the people they have in there this time, I certainly won't now either. I just don't want to know about that kind of thing
. It doesn't bother me that it's all shown on telly, but I'd far rather watch something interesting, educational, and worth watching Far too much rubbish on the TV these days. I know about the off button, by the way. It's just lucky I have exams at the moment....

That's all 'normal' people, isn't it?
Fairly normal, anyway
