Posted on: May 18, 2009 Categories: General, Rants

Every year in the UK were ‘blessed’ with channel 4 bringing us a reality show known as Big Brother, im sure even if your not in the UK you would of heard about it or god forbid have your own cheap and shitty rip off of it. But anyway it’s that time of year again, Big Brother will be starting very soon, I just know it, I’m really guessing, but it usually starts just after I come back from Scotland (I go every year) and that’s end of May early June plus there are those 7 DAYS screen randomly flash on Channel 4, and that’s my queue to go “Screw you”.
