Before BB nobody got on tv unless you knew somebody or did Rada, this progame crashed forth the unwashed, the common people and produced a show that put up the two fingers to the owners of tv stations ,,and said we can produce a celeb out of nothing ..no talent no background ...it was anarchy at its best.
TV...before BB these household names had us by the throat, then ordianry punters got more viewers more ads ...what did the old celebs do? fought tooth an nail to get on the show that was proving we could make a celeb out of nothing ..oh the irony,,
