Northern Soul Version Of Big Brother

[Mark Bicknell]

You can tell i'm bored and what tripe television i watch, it's all crap pretty much ain't it? Celebrity this and that kind of shows and now with the return of Big Brother it got me thinking what if there was a Northern Soul version????? who would we most like to see in the house, or who would want to go in?

With some of the stick on here from time to time can you imagine if some people were locked in a small house for six weeks with all of us watching.....so from a funny humour point of view Brett would be the first in followed by Jamie, Rich Buckley perhaps Bexter as was, maybe Russ Winstanley oh then Soultown Andy...lol thats six, need a few ladies to even the balance.....lol Kola could moderate, Jumping Joan could take the dance classes, Mandy???????now what could Mandy do? whatever she likes i reckon....lol, then we could set tasks like see how long it would take before tempers flaired, who would do the cooking? who would DJ? WHO WOULD DO THE WASHING UP AND WHO WOULD MOP UP THE BLOOD????????

Can you imagine the conversations in there it would be fasinating!!!!!!!!

So the question is who would be your 12 Souls to enter the house, i suspect there will be some pretty varied and funny suggestions here, you can select anyone you like off the scene 6 ladies and 6 gentleman, suggest tasks,then we could nominate until we get a winner.

I've suggested 9 names off Soul Source just to make it fun but like i say you can suggest anyone, still it should be ok as we all get on don't we... need three more ladies to make up my 12, well need some more quality music alongside what Joan could provide so i'll go with Cookie, Alison and Jo Wallace...interesting...i'll get my coat.

Well you would have to have the leary Jock so Keb would be a cert, there also seems always to be a token Gay with attitude so i would suggest Ian Levine, Pete Smith and Roger Williams are a given. Cookie would be the first in there I would also include Janine, Ali, Jo Wallace, KR, Ady, Gav Stearn, Rob Bailey and Russ W

Obviously this is totally hypothetical and i can not be responsible for the consequences of this fruitful gathering of luminairies

Bet it would make good TV though

actually i would pretend to pick 12...tell christian h he was one of them..and actually he wud be the only one

his only form of amusement wud be......

an old decca player along wiv a pile of white boy soul music

[Guest Kolla]

need a few ladies to even the balance.....lol Kola could moderate

Mark - I'd much much prefer if I were one of the "Big Brothers" - I can do a really good Jordie accent if required!

K: Can Janine come to the diary room.

K: Janine as it's your birthday we're going to play "The Entertainer" on repeat for the 4 hours and you will also be allowed to have Blodwen for the day.

J: Wehhh hey! Thanks BB - Princess Nini approves!

[Guest]

After much deliberation, and knowing my house mates as i do, i think the only responsible action, would be to agree wholeheartdly, and throw me out at the first given opportunity.

A 'full can' opened on me perchance???

[John May]

Well looking at the suggested line up.........I kick them all out straight away..

No second thoughts i'd lock them all in an throw the key away..

[John May]

Oh yes and of course we'd have to go through the carade of " did they do it under the sheets " .......UUUGhhhhh.

Lets just forget the idea.

[Jumpinjoan]

AND WILL IT BE CALLED.........

'THE BIG DADDY HOUSE'?

[pikeys dog]

I suggest 'Rob the Stick' for the transgender/man in a frock vote.

With any luck, he could get someone to 'knock her hip out' fro him.

Now that would make for sick but compelling television.

WOOF!

Mark, This was an idea for a Neighbourhood fanzine many moons ago and as I remember it Roly had you as one of the first housemates with a supply of the special Betty LaVette 'smokes' just to add to the mayhem. We planned to call it 'Northern Big Soul Brother' we had more than enough nominations to fill a small village let alone a house. I'll save the embarrasment of naming names but it would have been captivating telly.

Yes you're right there my pretty!! Next you'll be telling me I don't look old enough

And talking my way out of it further, I would say that you are by far the youngest looking of the ladies in the house grovel, creep, creep

And all this talk of killing everyone - you're just a big pussycat really

(If I do the washing up can I have my spends reinstated?? )

[Guest Richard Bergman]

It would need to be a very large house to accomodate all the ego's on the scene

Mark surprisingly enough we did this years ago although unintentionly I think the house consisted of Me,Pete Lawson,Darren.Prinny,Trina ,Martyn Mayler,Smiggy(in and out)Nick Birch and others popping in and out Tony Warot,Tony Smith, Gaz Keen very often on a saturday not sure why but every one used to F´´off when the night came round(with big eyes)

Happy days..................oh and Trevor & Pauline,Soullie etc etc

[Mandy]

That would be great but can you imagine being locked up with Joan for that amount of time - my cheeks would be killing from all that laughter (Joan - remember the Snorkle at Prestatyn )

My first discussion would be how to get Jamie back for the discrimatory remark about us 'young' ladies

I would have to have Angela with me though Mark cos you know we're joined at the hip
