Well i'ts only a few hours away. Not heard any rumours about who is going in (other than a blind man!).
I'm only going to watch the launch show just to see if Indie is still sweeping the nation. |

But I only watch the launch show to say the phrase "what a cunt" over and over again, or perhaps see if I know any of them. Fingers crossed they take it back to basics. |

I say I'm only watching the launch show. I promise myself that every year. And nearly every year I watch it on a more than regular basis.

We're big fans of Sly-alike Mario.

I think she looks like Arabella Weir-meets-Chyna; but I do love the pair of them.
The challenge appears quite cruel since they seem like such lovely people, but Mario is dealing with it gallantly. He's also been doing all the correct and helpful things with Mikey, putting his arm out for Mikey to hold, describing routes round the house etc. No one else is being quite so disability aware. I just generally think he's been lovely. Especially when Steph told him her age (after they knew they'd have to be playing a couple) and he said "you're young enough to be my daughter". Bless him. All the above affection might just be because he reminds me so much of Rocky! |

I'm astounded you know who Chyna is. (In a good way, that's kinda cool)

Who doesn't like the slams and drams of WWF?

I think it's a combination of him looking like loveable dumbass Rocky and loveable dumbass Joey.
I also quite like the straight-edge student in the suit (Luke?) and Rachel is totally gorgeous. The Thai dwarf seems OK, but so was Lisa a few years back, for about an hour. The Daily Mail will implode because there is a single mum who is a vegetarian, dislikes immigrants and is pro-life. Do they back her or not? And it's good to see that once again that BB's choice of gay man in no way enforces any stereotypes. Oh, and Davina is still shit. If anything, worse. |

I agree with pretty much everything you say. Other than that Mario looks less like a cross between Sly and Joey, than a cross between Sly and that guy Joey hired to be his twin that time.
I love the racist stereotype thai cookie genie and the Rob Schneider-playing a gay-dancer; but I suspect they'll be very annoying, very fast. The nursery nurse who can't speak (terrifying when you think of the imprintable age of kids she's looking after) looks less like Vicky Pollard and more like the big gay dancer in drag. I'm not convinced they're not played by the same dreadful comedian, possibly with his own BBC Three sketch show. |

Won't they have finished their exams by now? Mine were normally in May.
It's early days yet, but I have a good feeling about this lot. None of them seemed really dreadful. The crowd seemed particularly harsh this year. I was uncomfortable seeing the two black girls get such a booing. That's the legacy of Charley I suspect: what I took to be confidence and assertiveness, the crowd saw as stroppy selfishness. |

Well they did get on screen (which the live audience do see) and give it the "I look good and am better than anyone else" attitude/speach. As did Mario's fake girlfriend and the dickhead PE teacher - who also got a booing. If I was there I would have. |

Darnell is Ted Danson on crack.
Mario just said to the blind guy last night: "These spotlights do your eyes in"
