Well Big Brother started its sixth series last night, and having watched the contestants enter the house I have to say I was disgusted at how some of the participants described themselves (on their “promo” videos).

Hairdresser Craig, 20, from Norfolk, set up his own salon aged 19. “I love destroying people’s lives and take great delight in seeing other people unhappy,” he said.

Joe, from Nottingham summed things up quite well:

We worry about the horrid and confrontational culture taking over Britain but then air a programme that celebrates individuals who “love destroying people’s lives and take great delight in seeing other people unhappy”, are “too loud, confrontational and [bitchy]”, describe themselves as “rude and obnoxious” or “a gossiper, a bitch, two-faced, loud, shallow, materialistic and thick”. Good work, Channel 4.

I would like to hope they’re playing up for the camera, but something tells me that isn’t the case. I hope I am proved wrong.
