Darren has been described as: "smouldering" and "handsome". He has a good physique and is 6'3" tall with deep brown eyes and jet black hair. Physical appearance is important to Darren.

I�d say there was a difference in the PC department. These all come from the beginnings of the contestant�s bios. I guess that CBS is still trying to give themselves an air of respectability, whereas the Channel 4 guys know what people really care about, and give it them, sleaze or no.

Because let�s face it, I don�t care that Mel is a �Sales and marketing executive in the banking industry�, but I do care that �The three kisses shared by Mel and Andy have been denied by the steely femme fatal � Big Brother has photographic evidence of the three smackeroos - one of which was instigated by Mel, with the first still viewable in our web archive.�

Weird shite, though. It�s like the Truman show had babies. Aside from the two big Big Bros, there are more in Spain, Germany, and the naughty Netherlands (oh, and the Swiss coming to TV3 in September, which has its Very ! Own ! Magazine! And then there�s grandefratello�) So, what�s the deal? Are we all such closet voyeurs that we have to watch people living on a set to get off? Does someone have to make �70,000 or whatever? Fahk it. Buy a cheap-arsed pair of binoculars and pick a window fer chrissakes!

I dunno about this whole thing, man. I just don�t know�
