It's too cryptic for me. Would you like to expand on 'Next Celebrity Big Brother Your List?', the Shamb? For starters, a verb would be nice. Maybe a pronoun too?

I Googled "Celebrity Big Brother". It seems to be a UK reality television show, but I'm not intrigued enough to try to find out what the premise is. I've never even watched an American reality TV show.

I found it fun to come up with a list of my own and a mix that would make entertaining viewing - I thought that others compiling such a list might be fun too............

No one is being asked to watch it - just have the fun of compiling a fantasy list for an imanginary series.

The organisers tend to be limited to those celebrities who are now desparate for the money and publicity, politicians and young pop stars.

When you complile a fantasy list there are no such limits to the egos that you can mix togther and speculate on the results.

The ground rules for the programme seem to be that most people will never have heard of any of the "celebrities" involved, apart from a couple of dodgy characters who are trying to make some mind of come back after some disastrous episode that has scuppered their career, or propelled them into the headlines. The passing bits I've seen of the programme while channel surfing look quite extraordinarily boring.

I prefer Shambles suggestion involving an imaginary collection of people whom it would actually be interesting to see interacting, in a huis clos situation.

Shambles and Joe Offer would make a good start...

Nice one Kevin, and since we're talking imaginary people perhaps MG might add a bit of colour and a few adjectives.
My own favourite contender would be Cherie Blair, at least if the other contestants wanted to write home they'd have somewhere to post their letters!

Why don't we run the concept in reverse? Start with a list of various attenion starved nobodies, and we vote for people to put in with them.

Apparently there's a nice big houes in Crawford, Texas, which will be perfect for this in about three years time....
