The cast go to bed, then the cameras leave, and in reality they probably get up again and watch some tv or something.

Are they allowed to sleep during the day?

I'm really going to miss Liz. Delusional, insecure, nutjobs that look like a cross between Big Bird and the Joker are hard to find.
These intruders have some big shoes to fill.

It's a pity they didnt just find Liz another hubby. that would have been awesome.

They should have given her and Bronson a chance to go on a honeymoon and see what happens...

Bronson has been through enough

I don't know lol. Why?

The amount of meds Lizzie was on those last few days surely she would have been unable to avoid zonking

It'd be hard work. That's how they get emotionally vulnerable, through fatigue. It happens on Masterchef too. That's why people cry over a bowl of spaghetti.

So I guess the answer is no, they aren't allowed to sleep hahahah

Yeah but I think his 'nice, accepting, relaxed' guy persona would have been a really good fit for Liz.

I think he has seen enough to handle her getting right up in his face and being OTT and that he would help her bring down that wall of make up and personality that she clearly puts on as a mask/front. She presents herself as uber confident, women's pride, can do anything but deep down it's all just wallpaper over the cracks.

He would back himself it to work through that and I rekon they would have been a solid fit, personality wise, if not physically/socially.

Sleep deprivation is the most basic principle of torture/interrogation etc.

 

[Royces Hart]

Did laugh when Liz used air quotes when she said that Sam’s not “attracted to me.”

She’s in total disbelief that he couldn’t want to bang her. Jesus Christ, imagine walking into whatever shop she manages and being confronted by her. The only acceptable place would be a fancy dress shop.

And I’m totally sure that in the real world, Bronson would be so blasé about his wife bumping uglies with another bloke.

Yep, it's pretty ****ed. My only life advice that I'm confident in giving is - never go on a reality show.

Yeah, poor old Liz massively overcompensates for her low self esteem.

What do they even do during the day; are there just hours and hours of footage of them sitting around the room, going for coffee, going for some lip filler injections etc.. that you need to wade through?

I did thoroughly enjoy Mike reading the paper while Heidi was trying to have a conversation. Could actually see that there was almost some normality going on there.

 

[Royces Hart]

I’m quite positive that John would have played keyboard in an ‘80s glam band.

Oh yeah. Thing is, like we were talking about before, reality shows do have their moment where they just perfectly define the culture.

The UK Big Brother 5 wasn't the highest rating ever - BB3 rated higher - but the franchise never rated that high again, and many of the developments in BB5 have now become reality format staples.

It managed to capture a time and a place so well - Blairite Britain before the Iraq War had really gone to shit, the economy was booming, The Streets "A Grand Don't Come For Free" was on every radio.

I was glued to that series in the same way I am MAFS. This is the first series of MAFS I've watched and it was the first UK BB I watched - never got into it again, doubt MAFS will grab me again.

But I learned from that UK BB - coz I was working as a journo in the country, and there the media saturation was so much more intense - just how life changing and usually wrecking it can be.

It genuinely amazes me that they not only still get punters but people are increasingly keen to go on.

(I've got a germ of an idea for a movie script in which one of the key supporting characters is the sister of the protaganist and went on a reality TV show and was painted as the "villain". That'd be fun to explore)

I’m starting to think James Weir either has a Bigfooty account or reads from here as he is using all the terms and conversations that were used in this thread

I think it’s that JeanLucGoddard bloke, he keeps saying that he is a journalist.

Nah the footage we look at is always centered around an activity. Whether it's a date, getting ready for something or the big events like the dinner party.
The crew will never just hang around filming them. So in between they are probably free to do whatever they want.

It would be! You could get even more exploitative than it already is. Drama within the drama is an awesome concept to me.
