Peaches Geldof is dead, age 25

I feel quite sad about this, especially because as you say Caleb most people only knew her as bobs annoying daughter. Poor lass, I really hope it wasn't suicide :(
 
Course they won't, she's ratings gold. Although I did hear that itv were dropping her.

It's a shame though, lazy TV wankers should be shot down by ofcom for hiring a rent a gob who only opposes views for money and bears no actual relevance. The more people are fed shit, the more they eat it.
I know the lazy TV wankers that make these shows and they are indeed lazy TV wankers. It reminds me of when come dine with me changed, and they would only have 'characters' as guests, and sod the food, just try and get everyone to argue. Serving up manipulated and fabricated disgusting behavior paints an unrealistic picture of 'the norm' that then in turn actually begins to affect how the viewers act in real life.
TV today is just one big arse daily mail. Why does everyone view confrontation as 'good entertainment'.
 
The BBC is inviting people "to contact them with their views on what might have happened"

ffs...
When the news asks people for their views on the news, it is no longer the news.
I watch the news for facts from experts that can tell me what is going on. When they start asking the viewer for feedback and comment then what are we actually watching?

Yeah, it's shit. I don't give a flying toss what Mavis from Margate thinks, I just want the news. If I want anything else, I'll go to twitter or fb or here.
 
One of my relatives, with very young kids, died at a similar age, it was very difficult to make sense of.

I'm going to sound like such an old fart but this is why I like bake off and the sewing bee.

Apart from the nastiness I've seen directed at a couple of contestants outside of the show, it's not like that. It's a more gentle type of show, it's fluffy and nice and warm.

Come dine with me was hilarious for the first couple of years, then it just got mean.

It'll change. They always do.

Wife Swap was the same. It was really interesting before they deliberately set people up to scrap then it got shit.

Big brother was too.

I hope it doesn't, I don't get the impression it'll go that way. Although the attention Ruby got last year was unpleasant.
 
I'd never heard of Katie Hopkins before, but I've taken an instant dislike to her. What a vacuous cow.

And my condolences to the Gelfdofs.
To be fair Geldolf in that interview was also talking bollocks,it's sad when someone so young dies but lets not lose our grip on their views merely because they have died.
 
Ditto. :(

And no one seems to be saying that it could possibly be a freak medical problem or an accident, which is odd.

Drugs can be understandable and then people can say nasty things.
If it was an accident or some medical problem that's just sad and a bit scary as young and famous people shouldn't just die like that.
 
None of my business, but I can't help wondering what happened.

My young relative had PND, and committed suicide. It was very hard to comprehend, she seemed to have had everything to live for.
 
:confused: Wow…..such empathy, the guys young daughters died…..give him a break hey?
I was referring to Peaches not Bob and I did say "it's sad when someone so young dies", nevertheless she was talking bollocks in some of that interview.
