Odd that KP hasn't been announced yet. She may be going in on the second
week.

I haven't been able to get into this for years - even less so if it's
got balloon chest in it.

What we need is some completely new format - something really different.

Which 'balloon chest'? Looks like they're putting two in this
year.....

Probably. George Hamilton would seem ideal - same fake tan!

How about this great idea I've got for TV - we get a group of people
called "writers" to write stories for people called "actors" to
perform. It's a crazy idea, but it might just work.

Perhaps it's because I don't read Hello (et al), but why does George
Hamilton not need qualifying?

I can think of two possibilities[1], though TBH neither of which seem
likely, but I' stuffed if I can think of a third.

[1] Geriatric actor, country singer.

I have worked in Queensland, trust me it is proper jungle and Northern
New South Wales, where the program is shot, I’m pretty sure is close
enough the same.

Up there when they talk about snake infested they mean they’re
gardens.

I work in the railway industry and when I did their trackside safety
course, with some other Pommes, we were surprised to see (given our
experiences of other exotic spots) that there was no wildlife
awareness component to the course.

One of my somewhat nervous colleagues raised this question and the
instructor, with a wry smile, offered the following advice, “If you
see a hole don’t put your finger in it.”

Later one of the Australians explained that, even in the suburbs of
Brisbane, the Brown Snake (highly venomous and a big bugger) is a
common visitor and that most neighbourhoods have their own resident
Carpet Python.

Every time the famous lesbian Sam Fox is on the telly, you can't help
thinking what a waste.

Every time the famous heterosexual Katie Price is on the telly, you
stop thinking.

It's because people of a certain age like me tend to know who he is.
Apologies if you're younger! ;-)

No, I'm old too.

I do know who he is.

I just found it difficult to understand why a one time successful but now
geriatric actor would need the career boost (or the relatively small amount
of money) and was searching for someone else of the same name.

He's only 10 years older than me, so is probably still reasonably
able-bodied. I would think you would have to pass some pretty strict fitness
checks to qualify for IACGMOOH.

Not sure how much he's getting, but it could be well into six figures. I'd
do it for that!

Like Biggins did? There are only two criteria you need to meet. Be
desperate and available.

Nowhere near. Reports say most are being paid around 60k, apart from
KP who is rumoured to be getting 350k if she actually is going in.

I wasn't thinking about fitness. I was thinking about not actually needing
to.

What does winning achieve for him? Is it going to get him film work that he
wouldn't otherwise get?

That's still tiny in comparison for what he could get for doing a film.

A lot of oldies come back for a swansong in their 70s, if they need the
money

Come off it - do something that might cause the masses to have to
*think*? Imagine the outrage - the NHS inundated with having to deal
with the deluge of calls stemming from complaints of "my brain hurts"?

Will never happen.
