Celebrity Big Brother

If you end up using one of the services mentioned below to watch British TV, be sure and watch Celebrity Big Brother on Channel 4. I know it's cheesy but it's a guilty pleasure and there was some real characters in it this year. Vinnie Jones was exactly how you would expect, a complete bully to everybody. Stephanie Beacham was very hoighty toighty and Stephen Baldwin was just a basket case. The others on the show were as follows:

- Alex Reid

As you can see, not the most famous bunch but their characters more than made up for their lack of fame. Just a real good laugh. Also it's the last one but I heard Channel 5 may be picking up the format.
