BB FANS

Busy and getting fatter.

Or busy getting fatter, I'm not sure.

I meant Sandy BTW, to avoid all confusion

Oh. No idea what HE'S up to though ROFL.

i take your point- but seeing that there hasn't been, even one ex-hm, who has made a successful television career, since their days in BB, i cannot agree with you.
Go down to your local high street, go up to the first person you see, and ask them, which television programme, Allison Hammond, is on, and i'll guarantee you, the answer you're get, will be "who??"
Good luck to the girl- she's done ok for herself, and i'm sure her bank manager is a happy bunny, but i, personally, don't regard, occasional appearances on obscure daytime tv, a successful television career.

You didn't say succesful Adrian, you said a career, which Alison and Brian certainly has, Its also a little longer then 2 months, "longevity" even!! Try not to change the goalposts just coz you did a chris waddle circa1990

You said 'the media' though, albeit you mentioned 'particularly television'.

I would say that some housemates have had a successful career in television (here's just one example of what Brian's up to: http://www.livingtv.co.uk/index.html ) but I think the definition of 'career' is what's up for debate. Length of time, hierarchy of channels, BEING on a programme or WORKING on a programme, and all these things have a bearing on how we perceive it. If you mean a successful tv presenting career, how do you gauge that? Nobody's work is as secure as it once might have been and even long-standing "faces" that we recognise come and go.

I do see your point and take it on board, and am aware that I can come down to arguing semantics too. None of the Big Brother housemates has a long-running, regular, annual series of their own, but to me, that isn't the only thing that constitutes a "career in the meeja" or even a "successful tv career".
