Sorry ladies,didn't mean to sound snobby. I do watch my share of trashy telly,and read my share of trashy books.

Just don't like progs that seem to be taking the michael with our intellegence. Lets face it, X factor is all about making money out of mugs,it is less about real talent,and more about which act can earn their managers.

Depends what mood I'm in at the time I suppose xx

**edit** I'm off to watch this mornings Jeremy Kyle on iplayer while i do my ironing.........sneering at the people on it and shouting abuse at them helps make the pile go down faster lol x

OH watches it so I normally come on here. I'm aware of it and tune in mentally on and off so I do have opinions on it. It's terrible in lots of ways but it's also entertaining and addictive and I think there's far too much snobbery about what people watch. Apart from that, I don't think any of us who use these boards can seriously criticise anyone for watching trash telly lol
