The Jump seems to be going well. One dislocated shoulder (Arlington), one dislocated elbow and double arm fracture (Tina Hobly) and one double beginners vertebrae fracture requiring surgery and a nervous 48 hours where it seems they wondered if there was paralysis (Beth Tweddle)

The Jump really is a dumb idea. I stood at the top of the ski jump at both Oslo and Lillehammer and it is literally ridiculous how steep it is

I've only just discovered it's not even for charity. I thought it was some sport relief thing. I was about to make a joke about how they're raising money for people with disabilities by crippling people. BUT IT'S NOT EVEN THAT? AND THERE'S BEEN THREE. FUCKING. SERIES? AND JOEY ESSEX IS ON IT?
Everyone who watches it should be arrested. Stop encouraging TV execs to produce shite like this.

you can't even attempt this so why bother
although some may encourage the idea of sending celebrities hurtling down a steep slope at high speeds

I'm getting mixed messages, are you a fan of it or not? Have to confess, I watched the first episode of this one.. === I am also looking forward to the Eddie The Eagle movie. At the time I was young and dismissed him as a joke figure, now I'm older I realise he was a determined nutter with balls of steel. And a bit, OK a lot unhinged. http://www.foxmovies.com/movies/eddie-the-eagle(un)fortunately (not sure which), it looks like they've gone down the Cool Runnings 'inspired by' appraoach |

Reality TV is one of the (very few, of course  ) things that gets me rather enraged. But don't worry. I'll make sure you get a nice cell, I've got connects  Not a telly program but is anyone here listening to Serial? I'm very late to the party and I've just finished series 1. Have been told by many not bother with the second and I can't say I'm that enthused. |

If it helps, I don't watch television, listen to the radio or read newspapers. I avoid "the news" a.k.a propaganda wherever I go and if it happens to be on I stick my fingers in my ears The wonderful thing about my strategy is that it makes no difference to world if I don't consume it  |

You let them out of the cellar to watch TV?  |

Can't remember the last time I saw anything as moving as this. Wow, I really don't know what to say about it apart from that. Utterly compelling and also hard to watch. |

The law is this country is so wrong on that subject, big complex can of worms to open though.
Watched the new X-Files last night, it didn't do it for me. The highlight was hearing the theme music again.
