Anyhoo, having seen some of Space Cadets over the weekend, I would suggest that if my suggestion above of the contestants being "in on the gag" is true, then they're all damn fine actors.
No-one could play such dumbshîts so convincingly. They're all retarded. Makes Jade Goody look intelligent. Bah.
space cadets
I got sucked in over the weekend too. "We've solved the problem of gravity..."
OK then!
My girlfriend refuses to watch it as it's too far along the lines of just plain humiliating people, kind of "Thick people have rights too!" I'm not too sure myself, but will now have to watch the "take off" tonight.

I draw your attention to the actor who appears immediately after Gordon Ramsey.

So, is this a programme sending up (if you''l pardon the expression) people who are thick, or a programme sending up the viewers who think they're being clever?
Either way, it seems quite a nasty concept really.

OK, electrician, not plasterer. And yes, I cribbed it from elsewhere too.on page two of this very thread, markfiend wrote:And at least one other contestant (the massively afro'ed "plasterer") is also an actor: he's in that "this guy gave blood to my dying son" advert, having his head patted by Gordon Ramsay.
The fundamental cause of the trouble is that in the modern world the stupid are cocksure while the intelligent are full of doubt.

I've not been watching it. At first I thought that it was too cruel, but then I heard about the pathetic excuse that there's no zero gravity because they aren't in a high enough orbit. Utter pish! If the orbit wasn't high enough for zero gravity the craft wouldn't stay in space for more than one orbit before it'd come back to Earth. Either theyre all actors or they're really really really really thick.
Also, hasn't it cost Channel 4 a lot of money to produce this show? Why no phone votes to recoup the money? If they were actors then any money obtained from phone votes would have been obtained by deception, and legally Channel 4 would have their collective arses sued off them.
I did actually tune in a couple of nights ago. It was so COMPLETELY AND UTTERLY BORING I turned over after a few minutes. Big Brother censors the audio with silence. This prog was censoring it with REALLY LOUD KLANGING SOUNDS. My ears couldn't take it, so that was another factor in my tuning to something less boring instead. I might watch the final if I can be arsed.
One question since I haven't been watching it. Does their "spacecraft" have windows/portholes. Can they not tell the difference between reality and a cathode ray tube which would have to be on the other side of the window, or have they fed them more bullsh!t to explain no windows.

The "spacecraft" is surrounded by 3 or 4 IMAX-size cinema screens as I understand it.

I'm now watching it purely for that "Russian" guy...
"like a lost sheep looking for a hideout", "all cannot be swept away with the broom" etc... the man's a genius.
And probably from Wolverhampton .

I've been watching it when I have been able to and can't wait for tonight when they find out it was all pretend
