I was discussing the Reality TV themed competition with a couple of online friends, and one of them sent me directions to a live feed on the internet, claiming it to be the best reality TV show he'd ever seen.

I tuned in to the feed and saw that it was indeed live footage of the interior of what looked to be a pub, giving alternating views of about 5 cameras installed within.

I saw very little of interest there, simply men and women sitting and standing around drinking. A large transparent water tank at the back of the room occasionally played host to a swim-suited man or woman and occasionally a fully dressed woman would hop up onto one of the rooms two dancing poles and shimmy a little before returning to her friends – nothing spectacular, but I kept watching anyway.

Then I noticed something… All the men were wearing bath-robes. After a little frowning I figured (considering the water tank) it was probably the bar of a swimming spa of some sort, but then I noticed a recurring occurrence. Every now and then a woman would enter, approach one of the men in the room and check his wristband (they all wore those rubber wristbands you get is swimming pools), then lead him into the back room.

This went on for hours (I let the live stream play out in a separate window as I was writing), and it wasn’t until a woman passed through the bar wearing kinky lingerie that I started to wonder about the swimming spa theory.

After a little checking I discovered that the live feed was from the waiting area of a Brothel in Prague! Unfaithful husbands and pervy tourists all being watched live over the internet as they wait for their turn in a seedy knocking shop.

Knowing that made it so funny to watch, the nervousness on the faces of some of those waiting was hilarious. Single men sitting at the bar in a bathrobe trying to look inconspicuous, groups of guys who you’d normally expect to be rowdy all sitting sheepishly barely able to talk to each other – and the look on their faces when someone returns from their ‘business’ is priceless!

Channel Four should commission this immediately!

I don't think it will get repeated on T4 in the mornings.

Long time no see. Thought the FBI had finally caught you.

Sounds like one for Sacha Baron Cohen to get involved with!

I'm currently running rings around the FBI. They're still looking for my alter-ego - Prophilacticus Tickle.

As long as I don't publicly admit that I'm Prophilacticus Tickle they'll never unravel my true identity - the morons!



To recap - I, Yielding, am Prophilacticus Tickle... but don't tell anybody.

These reality TV comps have me frustrated ... it's just not interesting to me, dunno why... How is anybody else doing with it?

I hate reality TV it's pants!

as with the last one I have a few ideas, but again with last one will probably not even get a "well done matey"

Wow! Frankie and Cosmos, two of the five people I had pegged to be the front-runners in this competition having doubts?

Gosh-darn it guys - you're funny!

Frankie - the fact that reality TV isn't interesting to you gives you an advantage in writing scripts that mock the current reality TV trend (from the perspective of somebody tired of the norm), and I think we can all be sure that when YOU write from the heart, you write well.

Cosmos - run with the good ideas you start with, you doubt yourself too much - your best work has always been the work you have doubted the most, both of you have made me laugh out loud, a rare achievement for people with such self doubt...

I may not say it when sober, but you guys rock when I'm drunk!

P.S. I'm drunk!

Hoorah!

I try not to post drunk. It is hard enough not to sound crazy when I'm sober. When I'm drunk, I try to be clever and that is when I end up talking about how sheep could improve the economy through the medium of dance and fire.

I went for the celebrity angle. Noel Edmonds and Anne Robinson leading two teams of celebs in a battle royale style match (the movie BATTLE ROYALE) to see who stays alive. Anyone for Jade Goody running at Jonathan Ross with a machine gun?

I think it would boil down to Paul Daniels vs Rolf Harris but who would utilize their powers with the most effectiveness? I would say it depended on the terrain and paint supply in the area.

I was thinking of Anne doing a killer upper cut on Nikki Graham only for her to bounce back with some serious fists of fury.

The fun I could have with this.........

Thanks for your kind words, Scott mate! I will have to have a rethink from a different angle and see what we can come up with but... I prefer un-reality TV with professional actors and good scripts!!! Hey maybe there's an angle?

COSMOS is doing OK on the points though, at last, well deserved!

I noticed that Cosmos was firing up the ladder!! Busy little boy over xmas and new year!
