I love 'I'm a celebrity get me out of here '! I know its feeble minded of me but I enjoy seeing the personalities emerging and I really like Ant and Dec.
Its a pleasant distraction on the dark nights.

INA and Jeffrey are fabulous. Every meal is an occasion + every food shopping trip. Barefoot Contessa FAB!!

I like 'I'm a Celebrity' too. Ant and Dec make me laugh and I think it teaches us not to judge on first impressions or preconceptions. KatyK I also admit to peeking (through my fingers) in disbelief at Jeremy Kyle and the occasional 'Celebrity Big Brother'.

However I find I cannot watch 'X Factor' or 'The Voice' not only because of the annoying celebrity judges but because of the grating screeching voices of the competitors. I do quite enjoy 'Britain's got Talent' except for the singing.

TOWIE, MIC, GS (I believe these are the correct acronyms) boring and distinctly lacking in entertainment value.

I thoroughly enjoy watching'jungle' , the mix of personalities quite fascinates me. The good, bad and ugly followed by the nice, the nasty and the downright obnoxious. The human race is wonderful.

Grandma2213 The trouble is with Jeremy Kyle, once you put it on it's hard to switch off! I have to wait to see who is the father etc. So it's best not to put it on at all, although the last time I peeked, the subject was 'my boyfriend had his ears removed so he would look more like a parrot'. Who could resist? grin

Well that's me finished with ' Celebrity' this year. All the grown ups are out now. Lady C has spoilt it despite being TV gold. She took up so much time that we didn't have the usual chance to follow the development of various unlikely friendships. Its just flat and boring now with those left being kept in by reality tv and boyband fans. No Biggins, Foggy, Joe Pasquale characters although Tony and Duncan could have been a laugh. Thank God for Ant and Dec.

Jane don't blame you, I stopped watching after Lady C left. Yes she went too far but I didn't take to Yvette, Tony or Duncan, awful. Worse series ever IMO.

I agree Jamjar, they used to show the slebs chatting round the fire but now it's all over edited.

Referring to my previous post about disliking TOWIE, MIC and GS I am reminded not to judge on first impressions. I think Vicky and Fearne seem to be such great girls in this environment and good team players! (I never heard of them previously).

No No No to all so called "reality" programmes (does anyone actually believe it isn't all fixed!). Although in the spirit of full disclosure I do sometimes watch the Australia version of Nothing to Declare!! tchblush, but that is more a fly on the wall type thing rather than a bunch of wannabees or neverwas prancing around.
