Celebrity Big Brother ?!?

I'm from Holland and of the British tv channels, we only get BBC 1 and 2. In the news here, we heard about the racism on the show and because of that I wasn't surprised that Shilpa won (the people all sided with the 'victim'; I would have as well).

Anyway, I was checking up on the A- team, as I do regularly. See if there's news and stuff. And now I read Dirk was on Big Brother. I was incredibly surprised!! It tooks minutes before I was able to close my mouth again! I wished I had paid closer attention when the racism was on the news.

I've never watched Big Brother, British or otherwise, but now I wish that this one will be aired (which it won't) on Dutch TV. I so very much want to see Dirk in that!! The A- team is still one of my favourite shows (for nostalgic reasons) and Face was one of my first childhood crushes, so I've always had a soft spot for him. I hope that somehow I can still watch it. I've read Dirk's one liners on another post on this forum, which makes me want to see it even more. Especially because he was in there so long! Third; that's not half bad!

Anyway, are there more people who haven't seen it/ been able to see it?

By the way, do you think that for instance Dwight Schultz and Mr.T saw any of it? At least we know his sons have, because it's their 'fault' he participated.

Hi braingirl - Dirk was also one of my first crushes when he was in A Team! I would never normally watch Celebrity Big Brother, but because Dirk was in it, I was glued to it! He was great and should have won, but Shilpa was always going to win after the racism/bullying issue.

I wouldn't be surprised if Dwight Schultz managed to watch it - he and Dirk are very good friends apparently.

Ruth2006, are you British or American (or something else)?? Because, if you're British, I understand how you knew about it and managed to see it. However, if you're American, that would mean that in the US Channel 4 is available. Makes me even more disappointed that it's not on in Holland.

Ah well, I'm just jealous of everyone who got to watch!!!

I'm British, so it was easy for me to watch it. I do know of someone in the US and someone in Canada who watched it though - but I don't know on what channel.

I came accross the list of one liners on here and started watching CBB for the first time because of dirk.

You can find all of the edited daily shows on "you tube" where people have uploaded them sometimes spilt into 9 min segments sometimes the whole 45min show.

Dirk was by far the best celebrity on there
