Celebrity Big Brother

I won't watch it, they are all losers desperate for attention.

I will add I'm sick of the missus coming to see me after the show has finished, she is always ranting and raving about whats gone on so it must be good watching, i tell her to get a life.
 
Images of me a la "Gabrielle" style baby doll pyjamas ARE rather wide of the mark, I'm afraid, Brian - more like a demented younger version of Nora Batty!
 
Jodie Marsh really is a class act - she got expelled from school when she was 16 for selling naked photos of herself to sixth form boys. She persuaded her 12 year old brother to take the photos.

What the **** is going on here?
 
I haven't been keeping tabs on this - was Barrymore notified on air about this, or is he still there.

Barrymore faces lawsuit over death

Brian Farmer

in London

ENTERTAINER Michael Barrymore was yesterday facing legal action as a result of the death of a 31-year-old man at his home nearly five years ago.

The family of meat factory worker Stewart Lubbock, of Harlow, Essex, was attempting to bring a private prosecution against Mr Barrymore.

A lawyer yesterday appeared before a district judge sitting at Epping Magistrates Court in Essex, in an attempt to begin an action against Mr Barrymore.

The Lubbock family has served an application alleging six offences four related to the misuse of drugs, one alleging drunk and disorderly behaviour and one alleging assault on Stewart Lubbock, said their lawyer Tony Bennett.

Mr Bennett said the judge had adjourned proceedings so that the disgraced star, who is currently appearing in 'Celebrity Big Brother', could be notified of what the family was trying to do.

Mr Bennett said he anticipated a further court hearing in the next few days.

Police launched a lengthy investigation following the death of Mr Lubbock at Mr Barrymore's home near Harlow in March 2001.

But Barrymore was not prosecuted as a result of the death.
 
Normally they don't get any communication about what is going on in the outside world. For instance, "Pussy-cat George" will go apeshit when he gets out and finds that they've censored all his political sermons. But surely not even the mighty Endemol can overcome the power of his worship? I'd love to see one or two of their executives banged up for contempt!

You can't help thinking that if the hapless Barrymore had stayed low profile in new Zealand the case may not have been brought.
 
The prosecution has very little chance of success I imagine .

The DPP has a pwoer to take over private prosecutions that he believes are not in the public interest and discontinue them .

The idea you can be prosecuted for being drunk and disorderly in your own house is interesting to say the least
 
LONDON (Reuters) - TV entertainer Michael Barrymore faces legal action over the death of a 31-year-old man found in a pool at his Essex mansion nearly five years ago, the lawyer bringing the case said on Monday.

No charges were brought against Barrymore over the death of meat factory worker Stuart Lubbock who died in hospital the morning after a party at the entertainer's home in March 2001.

But public scandal over the case left Barrymore's once highly successful British TV career in tatters and he has recently been living in New Zealand.

Essex lawyer and local activist Tony Bennett went to court on Monday to bring a private prosecution after Barrymore, 53, returned to Britain to appear in Channel 4's "Celebrity Big Brother" programme.

Bennett asked a judge to summon Barrymore to court to answer six charges, including one alleging an assault on Lubbock, four alleging drug-related offences and one allegation of being drunk and disorderly.

Bennett, 58, who describes himself as a "self-employed rights adviser", brought the case on his own account but said he had the full support of Lubbock's family.

"I am acting as a concerned citizen out of a feeling that Barrymore should account for his possible crimes that evening," he told Reuters.

The judge, at Epping Magistrates Court in Essex, southeast England, adjourned the hearing "for a few days" to give time for Barrymore or his lawyers to be made aware of the application and come to court to contest it, Bennett said.

Bennett later travelled to the Elstree studios north of London in Hertfordshire where Barrymore is filming Big Brother, in an unsuccessful attempt to deliver to him details of the application.

Barrymore is not allowed leave the Big Brother house or to receive news from the outside world until the show ends on January 27, or earlier if he is evicted by a television viewers' vote.

OPEN VERDICT

A spokeswoman for Barrymore said: "We are currently unaware at this time of the exact detail of this proposed prosecution.

"But hopefully this may answer some questions for both Mr Lubbock, his family and Michael Barrymore."

Post-mortem tests showed Lubbock had drowned and an inquest recorded an open verdict on his death.

The coroner said Lubbock had been found with drugs and alcohol in his system and with serious anal injuries.

Police arrested two men on suspicion of Lubbock's murder, but later released them without charge.

Barrymore was cautioned for possession of cannabis and allowing his home for using the drug.
 
They weren't confidential papers, they were early day motions. One of George Galloway's aides says that he (George) signed them on 3rd and 4th January. While we can have no idea of whether or not this is true, it is quite possible and not at all unusual.

What gets me is that George gets elected to parliament after licking Saddam Hussein's arse but is likely to have done his political career irreperable damage after licking Rula Lenska's hands!

It's a funny old world...
 
anyone noticed the striking similarity between Pete Burns and a Bratz doll?
