100% agree with GWR , why do people insist on thinking that this is some kind of survival show? They are not out there fending for themselves in a jungle , that would be crazy. The whole point is to show the interaction between "celebs". Life is made slightly rougher for them by having them in the camp but thats as far as it goes. Whats the problem? ”

OK so whats the point in taking them all the way out to Australia to do the show and hyping it up as if they are in some sort of hostle environment?
They could just have easily put them in Epping Forest or if they really wanted to frighten 'em The Forest of Dean.
What the apologists for this pantomime dont seem to understand is that the viewing public by and large expect to see what they are told they are going to see. This is the basis of deciding to watch a programme or not and no amount of patronising pillockry on this forum is gonna (oh and BTW I know its going to and not gonna) change that.
When last night, for example, we were told that Darren had successfully completed the challenge yet we only saw him put his paw into 5 of the 8 boxes are we not entitled to feel that producers believe that they can show and tell us anything and we will swallow it?
