Grrr!!! I feel out of the loop now!!

I've just gone along with this by making rather useless posts, may have to load up ye olde iPlayer now....

Speaking of iPlayer, why does all the 'cool' stuff have an 'i' before it? iBored? Doesn't work...meh.

Grrr, it really irritates me...And it irritates me more because I want to see what happens next time!

The people they choose to have on there are complete moronic, back-stabbing, twits. It always surprises me how they actually manage to cope in the outside world...

It's the simple things that get me...That first episode where one of the women didn't know that a stick with some feathers on the end was a feather duster :roll: The episode where they made up a food company and they had chicken rolls with no chicken in, or the food wasn't right for the occasion...How some of these people have made it to where they are is incredible...

Can't say I've watched it, but from what I've read about Ben, if he actually got on like that in Belfast he'd be found in a wheelie bin somewhere :twisted:

It's just another show where a bunch of [LIFTED] are thrown together and wound up so they'll behave like even worse [LIFTED] :roll:

I think it's clear they choose the most irritating, obnoxious, self-righteous dumb-ass fools and put them into the most frictional groups possible in order to create the most cringe worthy TV show imaginable.

People like to criticise other people, and this show is there purely to pander to that weakness.

I see it now and then. I'm usually drunk after the pub or something. I don't know who's who, but I've seen enough to know they're all pretty much the same.

But you wouldn't want them to all get along would you? That'd be boring - FIGHT!!!! :twisted:

I think Sir Alan fired the right person, yes Ben is very obnoxious and I wouldn't employ him but Noorul (sp?) has shown his (very high) level of incompetence one too many times. LOL at Sir Alan's comment about him; "Whoever employs Noorul had better keep the receipt".

Agreed, but even was even more funny when he refferred to James by saying a village was missing their idiot.

I really want James to go soon, he's annoyed me since the start of the program, although saying that the way that [the woman who got taken into the board room last night whose name escapse me] has spoken down to people, and particularly Nick last night, really frustrates me, I wouldn't be surprised if Sir Alan fired her simply on that basis.

That's why we don't have a tv, we would only regularly watch QI and Top Gear which are both seasonal so it'd be a complete waste of money. We just buy the series on DVD instead which then means we can watch them over again.

I still watch them over and over again, just on Dave, :D

Luckily, as I'm still living with my parents, they've already got TV license, so I don't have to pay. If I was living in halls for uni, then I probably wouldn't have a TV, and just watch online.
