The Mary Whitehouse experience

Hold them in girls.

Hold them in girls.

Jeana has become a consumer champion.

I don’t blame her, because like her I too think Darnell – on Big Brother – can hide behind his Albinism as much as he likes – but that does not give him any excuse/opportunity to call the (rather loud/shreiky) Oz girl a slut and an ugly bitch.

After a fairly decent series (manners wise) he spoiled it a bit.

But it’s got her (Jeana) going.  She’s been pummelling C4 with Mary Whitehousesque troublesomeness.  She’s been shrieking at the screen.

She’s been going for it.

Result!  Darnell gets a wee talking to.

But anyhoo. Who cares? Certainly not me.

So, to much more interesting territories…

During the rather sorry and aforementioned ‘Darnell must go’ interlude we were discussing reading lists for the school year that lies ahead with Ria. She seemed quite interested in Magnus Mills’ book ‘The restraint of breasts.’ Perhaps she thought it was a good old fashioned boddice ripper.

Until I pointed out that it’s called The Restraint of Beasts.

Hilarity ensued – as it did when she proposed changing the middle consonants of the next candidate. The Shipping News.

Mary Whitehouse would have turned in her grave.  If she was dead.  Is she?

Courtesy of The Culture Show tonight I realised that 2008 is the 60th anniversary of 1984.  Surely Channel 4 could have made some sort of nod in that direction in BB9′s marketing.

Nah.  It’s too moronic.

I’ve tried not to watch this.  Really I have, and I’ve mostly succeeded, but tonight I watched in horror as the disarmly camp gay guy from Edinburgh was thrown out of the house for gobbing in the face of Mohammed.

Not nice.  No, not nice at all.

See ya.  Wouldnae wannae be ya.
