From feminist sister to Big Brother housemate

From feminist sister to Big Brother housemate (Guardian)

So Germaine Greer is on Celebrity Big Brother. That should certainly make it interesting. According to this particular article,

Producers hope that she will have a similar presence on the show as journalist Janet Street-Porter in the recent I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here! injecting an element of quirkiness.

If so, then the producers will probably be disappointed, as Greer is actually sane. She’s also very good at making sensible arguments, case in point:

Analysing the phenomenon further, she said: “Reality TV is not the end of civilisation as we know it it is civilisation as we know it.”

Go Germaine.
