BIG BRO BORE

Happy New Year! So that's it. It's all over for another year. Christmas and New Year festivities are over and the shops are stocked up with Easter eggs. It also means that it's time for Channel 5 to wheel out Celebrity Big Brother. As usual, they take a very wide view of what it means to be a celebrity and the house is filled with folk, most of whom we've never heard of. 

I would probably avoid watching it altogether but marriage, or living together, among other things, means that a man has to watch what his wife watches. Escaping into the bedroom to watch something else brings accusations of not wanting to spend time together. So, like it or not, I'll have it on the TV in front of me and will find it hard to escape.

This got me thinking; why don't they put folk in that we know would hate each other on sight? The usual rules would still apply; ie no fighting or violence, but the arguments and tantrums would be great! How about this for a line-up:

Abu Hamza, Roy 'Chubby' Brown, Gary Glitter, Esther Rantzen, Jeremy Clarkson, Peter Tatchell...

I'm sure there could be more but I can't think of any at the moment. Any ideas? You decide!

Oh, I'd throw Julie Burchill in as well. She'd have a breakdown trying to remember who she's for and who she's against this week!
