Space Cadets

Surely it would be a lot cheaper to really blast them into space.

It's not that expensive if you don't care about getting them down again. :p
 
Even I recognise that "Charlie" actor bloke, he's been on TV before somewhere. Wouldn't they get someone a little less obvious?
 
It was a pretty dull start and they're the usual reality-TV types. I'm away tomorrow night but I'll give it Friday before turning it off. :)
 
I think that the rest of this could be quite a laugh.

I will be v interested to see how they convince them that they are actually getting aboard a space-ship, when they only have an old film-set of the inside of the "craft".

Giles..
 
I know where they filmed it, its the old Woodbridge USAF airbase. I know that place well.
It's also where the UFO incident happened in December 1980.
 
I love the fact they asked for their families permission and they all said yes :D

bees and I agreed we would have said go ahead if it was us two too :D
 
Cant understand why they didnt think,"rich space tourists pay $20million each to go into space and we're going for nothing,on Channel 4 budget", especially when JV actually mentioned rich space tourists to them!!

But TV companies are loaded!

If I was a participant, the thing that would have me me suspicious, is why on earth was Steve picked to be in the final 12 when he was so completely useless.

This looks very interesting, will definitely be watching the rest.
 
watched last night , and will continue to do so , as its a nice diversion from life and just to see the look on these wannabes faces if they dont suss it out
 
a mate was on it for the first round of tests etc - thank god he didnt get through - he aint gullible enough tho.
I can't watch this again I felt bad for them despite them being thick as shite - I'm not being sizist but even the stupidest person would say hang on that large fella Steve is blatantly too fat to be an astronaut, when have you ever seen someone his size in space?
 
I didn't watch it, but flicked past it channel hopping, and saw some carboard cut-out russian military officer saying Velcom To Za Space Trainink Centorr - complete with shiny stare, gravelly voice, stubble and preaked cap. So obviously an actor. I guess they must have picked some really gullible people.

i think theyre gonna suss it out though.....if you think about it, its being broadcast for 5 days, youd think most of the airtime would be dedicated to the journey and training, so far theyve wasted one prog on hyping it up and showing the selection process, tonight is them arriving in 'russia', jv keeps banging on about 'if' they suss them out.....if they went all the way surely wed be seeing them pratting it up on 'outer space' at an early stage??

(i think i have too much time on my hands :( )

It's being broadcast for 10 days actually, and they're only gonna be in space for half that time.

Plus they've got Jamie's School Dinners lined up if they do suss it out.
 
I wondered about Steve too tbh, but I suppose if you have a group of people who are easily led it would be easy enough to distract/lead them astray as to why he's there

I'll be watching again tonight :cool: (it is tonight its on isn't it?)

It didn't have to be family did it? It was the person they trusted most.
We utterly agreed there is no way we'd send each other on that show.

I liked the male actors. That poem was gold and then Steve complaining that he doesn't get paid enough. :D
 
no someone you trusted you're right :)

wouldn't have agreed though? why the hell not :D
