Every man and his dog knows that Big Brother Celebrity Hijack was a big stinking tub of old porridge. Every man, it seems, except its host Dermot O'Leary – he thinks the whole thing was great. Though he doesn't want to make another one.
During January of this year, digital station E4 ran Big Brother spin-off Hijack for three and a half pitiful weeks that felt longer to endure than a spectacularly constipated shit. Essentially it was no more than a rehash of their regular Big Brother show with some minor-list celebrities 'pulling the contestants' strings' – i.e. making them act silly and squeal a lot.
While press and public responded to this fiasco by turning off their television sets and beating the next-door neighbour's cat to get their anger out, E4 owners Channel 4 still insists the show was a rousing success.
