Yep, it’s back. This Friday, the 2nd of January 2009, sees a return to our TV screens of the controversial Celebrity Big Brother show after Channel 4’s decision to axe the show after the racism row involving the infamous Jade Goody. This year the Celebrity Big Brother 2009 producers are not taking any chances by scrapping 24 hour coverage of the show. Channel 4 are hoping the watered down reality TV show will still be a major hit with British audiences.

As of yet, there has been no concrete statement as to who will be appearing in the show but rumours are abound that the following celebrities (I use this word loosely) may be making an appearnce : Whitney Houston the former 80’s pop diva, Tommy Sheridan the outspoken socialist politician, Terry Christian form The Word, Ian Wright the Arsenal legend and a few Page 3 glamour girls have been touted for good measure.

Hopefully, these, erm, celebrities will behave and we can sit back and watch them entertaining ourselves with their many hidden talents. Don’t hold your breath on that one.
