Getting out of there

ENDING! I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here!, ITV1, 9.00pm

It feels like only yesterday that we were anticipating this year's motley crew of desperate D-listers entering the jungle in the hope of winning your love and affection, and possibly some kind of career renaissance. We felt rather certain that David Gest's weirdness would cause untold amounts of grief to everyone, only to discover that he threw himself into jungle life with glee and that it was Jan Leeming who turned out to be this series's designated weirdo.

We'll let you into a little secret here: we're actually writing this on Sunday night, when the only people to have been evicted from the jungle were Toby Anstis, Scott Henshall and Faith Brown, so we don't really know who's likely to win at this stage, although we reserve the right to edit this before Friday, obviously. And if we're really cunning, we'll do it in a way so that you'll never even know we wrote this. Box clever, you see. (Except it turned out we couldn't be bothered - who knew?)

Anyway, we've not watched it but we gather it's had the same strong following as usual, give or take the usual ratings decline as terrestrial TV loses audience to multichannel (hark at her, getting all technical), and we're all in favour of reality shows that end before they've outstayed their welcome (are you listening, Channel 4?). And since Love Island's been axed, we might have to wait a while longer for the next celeb reality juggernaut, so make the most of it.

About Us

According to Marxist theory, cultural forms such as opera, classical music and the literary works of Shakespeare all fall under the heading of high culture. Low culture refers to a wide variety of cultural themes that are characterised by their consumption by the masses. We might not be Marxists, but we do know we loved Footballers Wives. If you do too, you'll know what this is all about.
