I haven't read it last week and seem to have forgotten to bookmark it! 
Anyone got a link to Grace Dent's colum please?
Isn't she fantastic
I read her stuff about CBB and she was so on the money.
I love the bit about negotiating i.e. with no chance of repeat orders or a bulk buy there's no negotiation - it's begging!
I might read what I want to read into what she's written (I'm a bit partial to a slice of Adam) but I think, reading previous blogs, that he was her fave.

LMAO! I can just imagine him now, when confronted by a rabbit: "I don`t trust rabbits. They`re rude!"

saying that, he's probably completely different when with his kids and has a rabbit at home!!
Grace Dent nails it - glad she has picked up on snotty Simon and Callous Katie.
Suprised Adam didnt get more of a mention though.

I wonder if Tre is a silver spandex leotard in Cirque de Mediocrite II will attract or rebel viewers?

I'm so glad you said that - I totally love her column, and the previous weeks have been pant-wettingly funny, but this one seemed a bit subdued.
Perhaps there was not as much material this week ?
I thought she said something about posting it late last week so maybe she'd been on hols and done it in a rush..plus it's hard to beat the material provided by 'the big cheese' episode!!
I think all that could be true. Also, I think Katie's behaviour really got to her - as it did for most of the viewing public.
She seemed a lot more irritated and fustrated by the content of the show, this week.

That link doesn't work for me. I just end up at the main myspace page.
this weeks is now up...

Thanks! It's pretty good, and I greatly prefer it to Grace Dent's overwritten smugness.

. . . definitely the WI vibe.Edit: that was from Grace Dent's column and not the myspace one . . . just to clarify.
Grace does the job as usual - sharp remarks so tight that I have confused others in the office by laughing out loud a few times - more snorts than guffaws, I admit, but aural ejaculations all the same.
she was good re BB.

a bit muted this week...maybe in empathy with Jadine's mood?

I laughed out loud at this line:
'In fact, defending them to the point where you find yourself in a furious argument in a pub with someone who dared say Aisleyne Hogan-Wallace's use of mayonnaise was "a bit slapdash considering the food shortage". Ridiculous, I know, but a red mist just descended. Sorry, Dad. '
