Like it or not, everyone knows what Big Brother is! Nearly all of those people have an opinion & it is just now that I'm realising just how prominent it is in our culture.
'Big Brother, that means summer, that means having fun & fancying girls!' Said a friend of mine, whilst discussing what BB signifies after such a long standing run of 9 years. It's absolutely true, the minute that eye appears on our TV screens even if it's hailing outside you feel of sense of British summer time nostalgia. This summer I'm co-presenting Ch4's first ever live radio show called 'Big Ears' with the legend that is Iain Lee. We launched last Thurs an hour before the house mates of BB9 entered. It was an awesome experience, standing on the steps outside the house with Davina was like an unknown fantasy coming true. I cannot wait to get stuck in. Big Brother is as HILARIOUS (get it?) as it is interesting. In tribute to the summer and trying something new I've hunted down the best bits from BB1 (Davina looks pretty much the same!)! Enjoy...
10 Things I'm looking forward to this summer (in no particular order):
1. I've been asked to be a skeleton & dance on the Pyramid stage at Glastonbury! I'm not 100% sure that I'll be able to do it, but watch this space & I'll let you know!!!
2. Putting together a proper picnic in a basket with smoked salmon and fancy cheese.
3. Boys with their tops off.
4. Bite, Bite, Bite - this includes capturing my trends & watching what the other's get up too!
5. One of my goddesses is a singer from Dallas called Erykah Badu who performs in the UK only about once a year is playing in London at the end of June, can't wait!
6. Another one of my goddesses is a friend of mine called Bri, she is taking a one woman show to Edinburgh festival this year called Aphrojamm, I love, love Edinburgh festival and will pop up in between 'Big Brother's Big Ears' shows.
7. Wearing flimsy clothing, that I hardly think about.
8. Jerk chicken on the BBQ!
9. BIG BROTHER'S BIG EAR'S! This includes interviewing the latest evictee at Elstree studios every Friday night.
10. Enjoying getting out of bed in the morning!!!
