I’m not sure if reality TV is a good thing for the people involved. Watching Wife Swap tonight I’m feeling a little uncomfortable. It’s not the kind of feeling you get watching the appeals on Comic Relief, like you know you should do something…it’s different from that. I’m thinking of the effect on the people who take part whether they like to or not.
I’ve spoken to two former Big Brother contestants and both were a little crazy. I know people who want to go on it and some who would never consider it. Marcus Bentley, who has narrated all thirteen British series of Big Brother (including the Celebrity and Teen BBs) told me personally he never would, though this was more due to him ‘loving [his] job too much’ I believe.
