[edit] Margaret Mountford on TAYF?

I know Nick has been on TAYF, but is it actually true that Margaret has also? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Davidahearn (talkcontribs) 19:28, 11 May 2008 (UTC)


[edit] Is this true?

"Its format is similar to that of Big Brother's Little Brother..." - so sayeth the article. But whilst (as I understand it) BBLB aired every day in addition to the main show, and wasn't directly related to the evictions, The Apprentice: You're fired! only airs after firings. Perhaps what is meant here is that it is similar to BBLB in that it is a spin-off show, but the article implies greater similarity than is necessarily true. However, I will defer to more knowledgeable editors to make the corrections... :) Fritzpoll 23:00, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

The similarities I see:
  • Celebrity guests come on and air their views, including who they like, dislike and want to win.
  • There are features filmed around the country about "what the public think".
  • Evicted candidates/housemates have their first "question time" session about their mistakes or highlights with anyone else other than Sir Alan/Davina.
  • The audience find out what the candidates/housemates has done since leaving the programme/house.

Maybe a cross between BBLB and Big Brother Live Eviction is more appropriate. Dalejenkins 23:17, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

Possibly - I just thought the statement implied too direct a link. But I don't know enough to be sure!! If you're happy about this, then I'm happy :) Fritzpoll 23:29, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
I don't think it's needed at all - it alread states above that it is a spin-off show. I agree with you Fritzpoll, comparing it to BBLB implies it has similarites with the show rather than just being another spin-off. Seaserpent85 23:34, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] And how is that?

"Its format is similar to that of Big Brother's Little Brother and Strictly Come Dancing: It Takes Two."

And what are those formats??? (Don't explain it here, explain it in the article instead) --IceHunter (talk) 00:57, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
