Space Cadets

[mycatis]

I've been watching the adverts for this new "reality" show, getting more angry everytime. Does anyone else think this sounds like a horrible idea??
I would go absolutely mental!! I would be sooo upset. There is nothing more in the world I would love than the chance to go into space and cant even imagine how gutted these people are going to be when they find out it's all a hoax!

[mycatis]

Ah I didn't know that about the friend thing. And I have to say I did giggle at your idea for an ending tell-me-more

This is no hoax on them, the joke is on us. How do i know? Space cadet Ryan McBride who is suppose to be an electrician is actually an actor. He is currently appearing on a give blood advert starring Garry Linicar which is shown on numerous UK tv channels including ITV! DONT BE CONNED!

[mycatis]

But wouldn't that mean he was one of the actors that are in on it? I don't watch it (obviously) but I saw the ghastly jonny vaughn (sp?) being interviewed and he said that a couple of them were actors, put there to convince the "contestants" if they started asking question

[MaxiMuscle]

No mate, he is not one of the 3 (now 2) actors that was in on it.

[mycatis]

Ah right sorry, like I say I don't watch it

Space Cadets is Con on us the guy with giant ginger mop on his head is actually an actor - Give blood advert with Garry Linekar !!!!! He is NOT one of the planted mole actors. Do channel 4 think we are stupid ???

Channel 4 clearly picked people in their older teens/early twenties for a reason. Anyone with half a brain cell would have questioned the fact that no news programme had previously reported that brits were going into space - someone older would have laughed it off rather than have been duped in this way. I even remember this whole 'story' of a fake space trip being reported in the press some weeks ago.

What next pretend some 18 year old sap has won a million pounds?, have the new Miss World declaring her undieing love to an unemployed 19 year old from Wigan and then marrying him 'live'?...and all for the sake of television.

Bring back Brookside please channel 4!

How come they were adverting the series everywhere - tv, billboards, tube etc. that the contestants didn't see them?

[Buck_Rogers]

I have never been so bored of tv in my life,if they want to make us watch this crap then pay us not the contestents its tacky and I'm sick of reality T.V. morning noon and night I want real programs that are different not this load of bull .... After all we are paying for it and they don't seem to listen to us when we complain anymore "take our money and run T.V". it should be called !! B.R.

[willowman]

Question - what are the other suckers, sorry, I mean contestants doing whilst their mates are "in space"? Have they now been let in on the (alleged) scam?

Hi, I've been watching it along with one or two of my freinds. One of my freinds has seen the guy with the large amount of curly hair (I forget his name) on a blood donor advert currently being shown on TV. Could it be possible that ALL the "participants" are actors and the hoax is on US ????????????

[scooby1962]

Hi. A freind of mine has spotted one of the participants (the guy with all the curly hair) on a blood donor advert currently being shown on TV. We now think, as some of you do, that all the participants are actors/actresses and the hoax is on US!!!!!
