How many times has she actually been reporting from the bush telegraph tonight? This must be a record even by her standard.

Perhaps it's because she conveys herself in a more entertaining manner than the likes of Wayne.

Ps, her name is Scarlett and not "the chosen one".

Seriously? How many times this whine? The Producers decide who goes in and who they show.

You,re not wrong, but surely if all they,ve actually got to go into the BT in order to get filmed. Must be a big queue waiting for Scarlett to finish

Last night it was Jordan's irritating voice that got most of the air time and Scarlett didn't get a look in.

I know I am in a minority on here in that I don't mind Scarlett, she isn't my favourite but she isn't the worst either, Adam is the worst by miles for me.

Scarlett has always been my favourite on gogglebox, but for me it has been complete Scarlett overkill in this series.

Funnier than the unfunny comedian, smarter than half of them, good at almost everything, including the tasks she can do. Can also do the narrators job well - no use being gifted the role, if you can't do it.

Unless they open it up - so that Sam can excel physically , or Carol can use her skills, its otherwise going to be one of the good looking boys for no reason at all, someone because of a past job, or Larry - who is superflous without any issues for a father figure to resolve.

What a nice way to describe other F/M's who do not have the same opinion as you.

It's the same most years.

Gino and Kim got all the air time - final two.
Christopher and Janice - final two.
Vicky, Joe S and Joe P all dominated the edit and won.

The producers choose who wins, they just pretend that we get to choose.

Although, to be fair, Foggy, Kian, Stacey and Doug all had fair edits and managed to defy those who were given more air time (Jake, Joey).

Scarlett, Adam are top tier this year followed by Martin, Joel, Larry, whilst Carol, Sam, Jordan, Wayne get given the crumbs.

It's the same every year - at least half the cast are ignored, whilst the same two or three get given all the air time.

It just seems so much more noticable this year with Scarlett and the bush telegraph

It's no worse than last year - it was The Vicky Show featuring her sidekick Ferne, and some Lady C arguments.

This year it's The Scarlett Show, featuring a bit of Adam, and Martin winding up the camp.

I've given up watching. It's boring seeing the same faces every single night, when there's 50% of the camp that we're yet to see anything of.

There's nothing worse for reality TV than a predictable winner.

I don't find her remotely funny. Not once has she made me laugh. She really isn't smart; though she's not as stupid as the 'ickle girl lost she's playing. She's about as good at the tasks as the rest of them are - they've won practically everything and the only one who needed help (twice) was Scarlett (from Larry the first day and from Martin yesterday). And I think she's a dull, dopey sounding narrator.

I'm almost getting a phobia now about her constantly popping up in the bush telegraph. Would rather lie in a coffin covered in critters than hear her voice ever again, telling us the ruddy obvious.

Yeah I quite like her too, she doesn't irritate me anyway. Not sure why everyone is keeping dull Wayne in though, or Sam.

I agree. Scarlet made me laugh out loud tonight. She is naturally funny.

I would have thought the others would get more air time if they had anything entertaining to say, but that's obviously not the case.

Oh please. I'm just fed up of the constant moaning. Same as all other reality tv forums on here, frequented by the terminally offended and the conspiracy theorists. Why can't people just accept a programme for what it is and just sit back & enjoy it?
