It's a decent momento if you can pick it up cheaply - have heard from some people you can get it for about £7 or £8 in Tescos.

The only decent original bits are the interviews with the housemates - the rest is pretty much just an account of what happened over the weeks. No extra gossip, it's really just a run down of what happened in the channel 4 shows.

It's relatively well written, but I didn't like how they allowed the writer to express his biases this time. I prefer it when they're impartial, and just right about the facts, rather than their opinion on what was going on.

Highlight of the book - page 131. My Vanessa banner gets a mention! ::lol::

Yup - 3 episodes of Diary Room Uncut on the DVD. Not much to write home about - one's of the hospital task, and I can't even remember the other 2 episodes, they were that memorable.

the other 2 are the 1 week just before Maxwell got evicted and the last 1 is the week after with the Olympic task just before Vanessa got evicted. I saw the mention of the banner as well Nicki my view is its ok as a memento but I prefered the style of the other books

I've got the book, but I haven't had time to read it yet I'm afraid. It's got some nice pictures in it though!

The only book I ever got from a show was from series 1. Not got this one, but are the others still in print?

I refuse to buy off line, so I'm basically screwed. But thanks for helping Trolley.

I'm sure if I followed my granny around some jumble sales I might get lucky.

Yes. I still think it's wrong they didn't bring out a BB5 one so I suppose they won't bring a BB6 one either :-(

We know the main reason of why there ws no DVD of BB5, it was because of the police investiation of fight night.
If there isn't a dvd (or video) of BB6 I wanna know why. When there isn't a police investigation why should Endemol turn it's nose up at profit?

Don't try telling me you've not been to the N&M since I left Aberdeen felicity! Or did I forget to ask you to pass it on to CSM? Oops, typical :oops: !
