After reading Alchresearch's thread about the new dance show that sounds so ludicrous that I can't believe they are going to make it, I thought we could do better!

To start the ball rolling:

Celebrity Blaggers - each week a new celebrity has to plan and execute a heist and get away with. Will only work if Mr. Plod doesn't watch ITV.

Celebrity Hammer-Heads - each week a member of the public has a choice of 5 celebrities & then proceeds to bash their heads in with a hammer.

Sheffield forum-vision.

A camera pointed at a pc screen while it randomly picks threads... there can be a phone in from viewers to stay on a thread as it develops.

Grendel's Den--a variant on Dragon's Den, where candidates are interviewed to see which is most eligible to be eaten

Virtual big brother, where ten characters virtually live in a house and instead are left to go insane inside an office with only a small bed for four hours sleep a night. The evictions could be a lot more exciting, people would be more willing to let their inhibitions down and there would be no arguing about who was hungry.

Of course,Sims addicts were living like this for years!
