Just as unbearable as the summer one, which seems to go on forever, this tired out pile of rubbish now has a new lease of life on Channel 5 after nine years on Channel 4. Basically it is like the general public one, where people are placed in a house cut off from the rest of the world and filmed, in the case of the zeleb one, for three weeks with various challenges to do to make the show more interesting.
As with all these pointless reality shows with celebrity in the title( mercifully only this and I'm A Celebrity survive of this genre now), the celebs are the usual gaggle of almost forgotten soap stars, glamour models, one hit wonders and a more recent phenomenon, contestants from other reality shows like Jedward and Kerry Katona.
While about 2 million people still lap this rubbish up, mercifully most people have seen through Celebrity Big Bore and the bunch of whinging, moaning and often unpleasant z list celebs. My one wish is that both versions of Big Brother get cancelled forever as falling ratings suggest people are sick of the show and the hype around it. However, like Star Trek, it seems to have attracted a cult fanbase who are prepared to spend hours standing outside the house in the snow, waiting for someone to be evicted.
Mercifully, ratings for this show on Channel 5 have now tumbled to a million and it's like the franchise could be cancelled after 2017's series.
score 1/10
