Celebrity BB 2009!

It starts tonight! Who's going to watch?

I want to, but I haven't broken it to the husband yet that it starts tonight.  I have to think of a way to do it.

I can't wait!!!

But I have to hide my BB viewing habits from my significant other as well. Damned men. Why won't they just embrace their inner chav and watch it like the rest of us??

I bribe mine by letting him play on his xbox all day. By 9pm tonight, the tv is mine. Then, he'll pretend he isn't watching it, but comment on every single thing. By 10pm he'll be hooked! 

Don't want to give it away, but I just read a blog with some of the potential housemates...

My husband is like that as well.  He says he hates the show, but he ends up watching it with me.  I think he secretly loves it and just doesn't want to say!

Spill!!!

Mine's been playing on his XBox all day ... it doesn't make the least bit of difference.  :\\\'(

If, by some miracle, I am allowed to watch, he'll make angry snarky comments through the whole thing so I can't hear what anyone's saying.

Oooh, I've been following all the rumours and am THRILLED with this year's lineup! It's going to be a good one!

I might record the first one to see who is on....but I usually don't watch   (I watch way to much TV as it is!!!)

Looks like some of the celebs will be LaToya Jackson, Verne Troyer, Ulrika Johnson, Coolio.

Who else, chary?

Well, those are the ones I'm excited about! Michelle Heaton's in there, too, as well as some others I've never heard of but will probably grow to love. 

Ohh, LaToya!  I'll watch for her! (I've heard she is very sweet!)

My husband hates all reality TV.  Calls it a theatre of cruelty.  That's why I have to choose very carefully which ones I watch.  I watch the normal Big Brother, which means three months of my husband asking what's on TV every single night two minutes before it starts JUST so he can sigh.  And I watch Strictly Come Dancing and American Idol(but he goes out most Fridays so is unaware of that one).

You're so lucky he goes out! Mine either won't let me watch (normally that isn't an issue, but we only have one TV between us at the moment), or else lets me watch just so he can be bitter and whiny about it. Tonight, apparently, is going to be the latter. I'm not sure if that's a good thing or not!

Usually, I just watch things when they're repeated the next day, or on the watch-again option thingy on the computer. Fortunately, BB is replayed every morning - just with the swear words bleeped out.

Oh, I am LOVING this!

So far my take is:

La Toya: Seems very sweet, but that giggle is going to grate after a while
Mutya: Potential for disaster
Verne:  I didn't know he was as small as he is!!
Tommy: No opinion really except that his voice will definitely get on my nerves
Lucy: Idiot
Ben: I think I'm already a bit in love with him
Tina: She could be trouble too, and has another voice that'll drive me mad

Yep, I think you hit the nail on the head with all of those. Verne is wee.
