Ganesh is spot on about Barrymore’s Hitler thing being sub-Cleese, though Cleese only did it twice (Python Minehead By-Election Sketch, and of course Fawlty Towers) for a total of about ten minutes, whereas Barrymore has been doing that for… what, twenty years? Hmm.
Does anyone know if George Galloway would come out to hold surgery for his constituents ? Or is he hiding in the house to avoid being called to shout at US Senators again? Being on BB’s a good enough reason to get out of it, right ?
Anyway, got bored with prole BB in 2005, but a few minutes of this were enough to convince me to drop into the house a bit more. Love the idea of undermining the idea of celebrity – though in its way, the normal BB contestants end up being the kind of non-celebs this is kind of poking fun at, I feel, though I guess Endemol aren’t expecting the other house-residents or the audience to go ‘oh, my! They’re right! We’ve been complicit in undermining the requirement for people to have some kind of ability before they become a celebrity! What fools we’ve been, we must change our lives…’ |
