Big Brother to be cancelled by Channel Four


Dear All

Crash TV that is Big Brother is to end.

Thank you to the person who decided to kill it.

Big Brother represents one of the worst examples of people interaction that you could ever wish to see.

Truly dreadful doesn’t describe it adequately.

Channel 4's director of television Kevin Lygo said the show;

"had reached a natural end point on Channel 4 and it's time to move on".

About five series back in my opinion.

Television is all about ratings and Big Brother has suffered as their ratings continually plummet, the current run was the least watched.

People selling products want to be associated with success, to be hip, trendy and cool.

Big Brother is like watching your granddad wash his underpants in the sink!

Channel 4 head Julian Bellamy said;

"Big Brother has been our most influential and popular programme over the last decade."

But now it is like a fart in a spacesuit that Channel 4 can’t wait to get rid of.

The biggest star of the show was Jade Goody who went on to show the world that people with no talent can be a celebrity based on the fact they are thick but likeable.

Others like Kate Lawler went onto other work such as being a successful DJ and presenting.

Davena McColl, an ex drug addict front the show and has done extremely well out of it by getting to be the face for a cosmetic company.

So, what was Big Brother, living soap which showed that some people will do anything for the chance to win fame and money!

Truly wretched TV that showed how misfits implode if thrown together.

Yours sincerely
