the glamour of LED lighting
CBB5. The day before day one.
So here we are. On the edge of the cliff. Like riders on the storm, dogs without bones, actors out alone and any other analogy you would like to throw in for free.
To date, everyone from Stephen Hawking to Kate Moss has been mooted as a 'definite' to enter the 2007 version of bedlam.
Only Saddam Hussein has been omitted from the listings provided by the compact newspapers (and some of the less compact ones too) and his unavailability is for the rather straightforward reason that he is dead. Although this didn't prove to be a hindrance for Faria Alam last year, who at least gave the impression of being completely lifeless.
Whoever they are, we are assured by the official CH4 website that no expense has been spared this time, to ensure that the contenders are living in a world of luxury combining the heights of The Ritz, The Wolseley and your local Wyevale Garden Centre.
They tell us:
"The garden has been extensively redesigned and 'tied' with a steel ribbon - LED lighting and a brand new 8-seater hot tub add to the glamour factor."
Oh man - some LED lights! Such glamour indeed!
Finally - some last minute pleas to Endomol and CH4:
Please - oh dear God, please...
No 'House Next Door...'
No housemates allowed to 'amusingly' immitate Marcus Bentley ("It's Day Three in the Big Broother Hoose").
...and above all.... no really CH4, above everything....no evicting some celebrity sap, only for the Great & The Good in Elstree to decide the viewers were wrong and allow same sap back in under some spurious rule change.
Here we go then - open the trap door and let the celebrities tumble to their fate.
