but by davina, though?
davina hasn't got the chops when it comes to this stuff, and i reckon we need an expert.

The absence of the crowd will possibly have more of an profound impact on Jade personally. After all even the most hated of previous housemates have had to face the public & press on eviction night. Jade made realise that she's burst the banks, so to speak.

Would be good if Davina could pretend that the reason there's no crowd is because nobody bothered to show up!

I may have to watch her "best bits"

Wouldn't it be great if she got evicted as normal, comes out of the house and sees there's no-one there to greet her? She stumbles down the steps and across the BB compound and it's silent, as though everyone was gone. And then, she heads out towards London and it's clear something terribly wrong has happened, and she starts calling "Hello? Is there anyone there?"

Coming next on C4, the new Jade Goody Reality Show: 15 days later...

You know who they need to do the interview? Someone with academic credentials. I propose Dr Heisenstein.


Or Kevorkian.

Yeah but they'll probably pair up Davina with Mike Reid instead.

Mike Reid will be too desperate to get inside and be reunited with Pat Butcher (Jo).

That Jade Goody site is frakkin' hilarious, btw. Constantly getting overloaded because it has shit bandwidth and anti-Jade posters are flooding it, and the single admin is getting pwned all over the shop by them (they're now threatening to track people down by their IP addresses and sue them for the crime of...er, criticising Jade).

Anyone else from here joining in the fun? I'm posting on there as VI Lenin...

God i wish they'd put Diana Ross & Maria Carey in there.

No, three: Armed Phil Spector.

Still reckon it's not actually Jade in there, it's just Jimmy Carr in a Jade suit proving once again that he will do anything on T.V if he's asked. Can't wait 'till he rips of the latex Jade head!

David Wilson - ex-BB psychologist who resigned from the show - is on Sky now, talking about his problems with the show. Apparently a lot of ex-housemates have problems with relationships, going out etc after getting out, and he'd advise anyone wanting to go on the show not to.

Apparently he worked on the series where it 'went evil', and resigned after they set up a situation he considered to be a version of the Zimbardo experiment. Not sure which series he means, but jeez, Endemol love recreating Zimbardo, don't they (see: this series' 'masters and servants' variant).

That'd be the one that Nadia won, at a guess. Where it all went off air for a night when complaints were made to the fuzz about threats of physical violence.

16:16 / 19.01.07
He did say he'd predicted there'd be violence, and there was, so yeah.

Where it all went off air for a night when complaints were made to the fuzz about threats of physical violence.

And yet complaints to the police about this series have resulted in...
 
 
penitentvandal
16:21 / 19.01.07
And incidentally we've had threats of physical violence in this series! Jade said she wanted to headbutt Shilpa...what did C4 do?

That BB 'intervention' again in full:

'Jade, were you being racist?' 'No I wasn't.' 'That's alright then.'
 
 
doozy floop
16:32 / 19.01.07
Dudes, I hope you are going to be watching the eviction for me tonight and posting some kind of fantabulous blow-by-blow account, coz I got no telly and I drink-drank-drunk too much at work to risk encountering my own unsuspecting friends n family, and me and the batty cat and BB-hating-co-habiter need someone to dish out the horror the horror. If only so I can astound people tomorrow at a refined dinner party with my preternatural understanding of something I've never seen.

And also because I HAVE TO KNOW because all of this has made my head break.

Apparantely Jo is due to perform at G-A-Y nightclub in London in Feb. However the club owner is unsure whether to proceed with the show and is asking the punters to decide!

If you fancy voting
 
 
Alex's Grandma
17:54 / 19.01.07
Cheers for that, Harrison!

I voted 'no'

is anyone watching, or are you all boycotting?

I'm boycotting the boycott, so edgy am I.

I've got my beers in, Sheena's had a nice long walk today...

BRING IT THE FUCK ON.
 
 
Char Aina
18:37 / 19.01.07
i'm watching.
i havent watched a single episode yet, and i have never voted for an endemol show in my life, but this... this i have to see.
sure, i'm a sucked in sucker.

you?
 
 
petunia
18:38 / 19.01.07
see? jade wasnt being racist. Because c4 takes racism seriously and wouldn't let her be racist if she was being racist and so she can't be racist cos she's still there.

Do you see?
 
 
petunia
18:39 / 19.01.07
Ditto with not having seen any of this one.

The spectacle is fun when it works so well.
 
 
h1ppychick
18:41 / 19.01.07
I'm finding the tone extremely odd. The flagrant use of other broadcast VTs at the beginning, the tentative Big Brother queries to Shilpa, the risible "Big Brother takes the welfare of all housemates very seriously and would not tolerate racial discrimination" bit. It's almost an eerie sensation.
 
 
petunia
18:43 / 19.01.07
Well... with all the doublethink and what, it's actually living up to its name pretty well.
 
 
STOATIE LIEKS CHOCOLATE MILK
18:44 / 19.01.07
h1ppych1ck- yeah, it's a little weird. It's simultaneously subdued and rabble-rousing. It's like evicting someone from their own funeral.

Very strange.

More updates, Ive been checking this thread a lot since the news appeared in the newspapers over here in Argentina... I need to know whats happening, someone set up a webcam so I can watch live!

Ooh dear. Jade in the Diary Room.

Go on. Say "well, that time I burnt that cross on the lawn, put a pointy white hood on and lynched a bunch of innocent people, it wasn't meant racially at all. It's not my fault they were all a different colour to me. It never even crossed my mind..."

SAY IT
 
 
penitentvandal
18:57 / 19.01.07
Hmm, that diary room scene was convincing. As convincing as those British guys who made 'confessions' to those bombings in Saudi Arabia, that is.

Wonder what bits of that conversation we weren't shown...

If, for any reason, Jade is not evicted tonight, I will personally march on Hertfordshire, gathering an army of rabble and bandits on the way, storm the bloody house and take the Jade, Jack, Jo and Danielle out by force, before moving on to C4 HQ to re-enact the Rape of Nanking on Andy Duncan's smug fucking face.

Join me, fellow 'Lithers! Join me on the Long March to the Storming of the House and, at my command, UNLEASH HELL!
 
 
h1ppychick
19:00 / 19.01.07
Oh dear. I was if not liking, at least grudgingly approving of, the approach by Stern Big Brother to Jade in the Diary Room, but then that tipped Jade off, hence the unfortunate attempt at damage limitation.
