Im A Celebrity=Katie Appreciation society

Watching the ITV show you would think that the only person on that show was her.

Turn over to ITV2 and its even worse. None of the panel apart from Janice Dickinson want to stay a bad word about her, and then each time she does, the host drowns her out and the defends her. Yet none of the other contestants are afforded this treatment.

I really have no thoughts about Katie. I know nothing about her marriage., and apart from the original Im A Celebrity she was on, and the Graham Norton show she was on recently i've not seen any of her programmes, i dont read the magazines shes on, or the newspapers, the only time i see anything about her is on here or if im reading the Metro.

So getting to my point, i know too little about her to like or dislike her, or to be honest even care.

So i dont mind the fact she's in there, what i do mind is the unfair and advantageous coverage she's getting. Its not allowing anyone else to shine, its like ITV want to tell us what we should think especially about her. Now that is going to get tiresome, they really need to reconsider, and let the show flow on its own accord and not attempt to set the path, or it will ruin the show

This is a very well balanced and well thought out post, Massagatae

I'm in full agreement with you, although for me I've never been a fan of hers, even the last time round when it became the Pete and Jordan show. At that time, it was much the same as what's happening now with Jordan and Pete getting the bulk of the coverage due to their blossoming romance. The other characters couldn't compete with that.

I'm really really annoyed at the blatant manipulation by ITV and how they have deliberately turned, what was a very promising show, into the Katie Price show. I also watched some of the ITV2 show tonight....and shock horror, it was also all about KP.

It's ridiculous. Surely they don't expect the public to keep buying into this very forced editing and the 'yes people' singing her praises on just about every ITV show? They've surely got to know that people will get really fed up and there'll be a serious backlash. Haven't they learned anything from Channel 4 and the almighty backlash that occurred from the Shipla v Jade debacle when the whole of Jade's family were put into CBB?

I'd just be astonished if they really think they can get away with fooling us. The public will only be fooled for a short time and will soon catch on that they are being played like fiddles, especially if they show little of the other contestants. Well I hope so anyway.

Thankyou....

I agree, its the manipulation i dont like. Not as much Katie herself. She's not to blame for the coverage ITV and to a certain extent us the public.

We vote for her to do the trials, therefore even more coverage, we watch the show therefore ratings stay steady or increase, and ITV think its a good thing.

I personally think she will come out better in this, because she's not stupid, and will ensure she only brings out the best in herself. This is though not good news for ITV, no drama and it gets a bit repetitive after a while. How much of Katies closure can we see,
