"You're fucking swines!"
UH OH! Princess Nikki, E4, 10.00pm
First of all, we want to make it absolutely clear that just because we're acknowledging this show's existence on the front page does not mean we approve of its existence, and in no way does this compromise our pro-Aisleyne attitude to this year's Big Brother. Now, remember when Nikki was on the show (hardly difficult, it was about two weeks ago) and would scream and bawl and throw an enormous tantrum every time she didn't get her own way? Wasn't that fun? Wouldn't you just love to see her repeat it ad nauseam in the "real" "world"?
Indeed, somebody somewhere decided that, rather than try to get Nikki the psychological help she clearly needs, a far better idea is to repeatedly enable her attention-seeking behaviour by giving her her own TV show where she's thrown into various unenviable jobs (this week she's gutting fish), where she can proceed to yell and whine and be a complete hindrance to otherwise hard-working people. For thirty whole minutes, minus commercials. For a six-part series. Jesus actually wept.
Beyond the phenomenon that is Nikki, an equally scary part of this programme is just how quickly it's been turned around. Was she filming this in between time in the house? Or, as someone suggested to us the other night, before she even went in? Surely they can't have filmed the entire thing in the 12 seconds she's been released into the community? Egad. It sounds every bit as unmissable as Chantelle's Dream Dates, and you may take that however you wish.
