I'm sure we will all bump into each other on some of the other forums, SCD will be back in the autumn. I know I see you about alot Gilly. BTW how is the Aygo?

I might. I'll book a hysterectomy and fill my CV full of bullsht. Oh, and I'll practice my sob story and malevolent attitude. What do you think of my chances? I'm not 24, by the way.

I'm sure the job will be what Lee makes of it - it doesn't sound that bad to me.

So does anyone think she will take up Essex County Council's offer?

I answered on a previous page but it got lost!

I love my Aygo, but it has been back in the garage twice as the petrol gauge doesn't work It still shows half full when it's really empty, but hopefully next visit it should work

Are you an SCD fan as well cath?

We've met on the SCD board too.

And IDA as well! We're all very similar I think, we're suckers for the reality progs (saying that, I hate BB though )

I've not been that regular a poster on here, but I turn up on SCD and IDA...DEFINITELY not on BB though!!

Guys, just 4 and a half months till the new candidates fill the house and start their tasks, and just 5 till the next celebrity version. I don't know how Sir Alan fits it all in with running several businesses.

SCD and IDA?

Strictly Come Dancing and I'd Do Anything

You hate it? bit strong in it? It's a tv programme, all you've gotta do is get up and leave the room or turn over when it's on?

I'm very suspicious of anyone who says they don't watch BB, as it seems it's the cool thing to say .

All the decent shows are finishing at the same time so we're left with nothing but Big Brother (Which I'm desperatley trying to avoid this year) and football that doesn't involve England

Britains Got Talent and The Apprentice were my 2 favourite shows, and they finish within a week of each other I even didn't mind I'd Do Anything - but wasn't an avid viewer - and thats over too.


I'm looking forward to Comic Relief does the Apprentice this year - especially if the "big names" who keep saying they'll take part, actually keep their part of the bargain.

Sorry, but I do hate it. My OH watches it all the time and it does my head in! I'm currently at my son's house while he's away, but when he comes back I shall go upstairs and read a book!

I've never liked it. I tried it once in one of the early series, to see what all the fuss was about. After about five minutes I found some paint that needed to be watched drying...

Hahaha! That's exactly what I said when this series started last week, that I was going to paint the wall to watch it dry

This is the first year ever I am steering clear of BB...I'm afraid Ziggy and his chums killed the show stone dead for me last year and I shan't be returning....

Great minds think alike, Gilly

- I used to think that myself. I was obsessed with it when I was a bit younger.

I watched Series 1- 5 religiously. Series 6, not so much, Series 7, i got into it again, and last year was just awful, I only saw a bit. I watched the first of this series, but it didn't grab me, so I'm attempting to avoid it rather than get dragged in - see if i can actually manage it for a whole summer

Its not the same show anymore, imo.

We are alike - I can't stand BB.



You' must be suspicious of an awful lot of people then!

BB plus reality shows on ITV are like freak shows to me - particularly the audition stages of the ITV shows. Not my idea of entertainment at all.

I do not know if this has been mentioned already ( I am at work at have not got the time to read through all 44 pages, but did anyone else notice that Clair had her hair pulled back in a pony tail, when they came back into the boardroom her hair was down but was in a pony tail again in the next shot.

lol, i thought i saw that too, weird editing once again

Can't say I spotted that but hasn't she got funny ears? She doesn't have ear-lobes, her ears just gradually taper off!


I got it completely wrong last night. Was convinced Alex & Helene had won the task and then when I was wrong on that I was convinced Claire was going to win. I wonder if Alex & Helene would have won if they hadn't neglected to take the cost of the bottle design into account? We didn't actually see the other pair doing any costings either so did they win by default?

Absolutely.

I wasn't really an IDA fan, watched some of it, but I was a bit obsessed by ADWD, on the Lee appreciation thread quite a lot.

I'm watching the episode on iPlayer.. and the intention apeared to be that the user would apply from the smaller bottle, and reload from the larger. Trying to think of an analogy - and can only think of the relationship between, say, an iPod Shuffle and the large set of material in the user's iTunes instance.
