There’s a lot of good stuff on TV, so I watch something most days of the week. It’s the easiest thing to do when I get
home from work. I watch quite a lot of documentaries and the news. I like to know what’s happening in the world, and
I’m also a big fan of reality shows like Big Brother.
In Big Brother they get real people together in a house for a few weeks. Because the house is full of cameras you
can watch how they behave. Sometimes the people are celebrities. As a viewer you can decide which of the people
you don’t like. Then you can vote to evict them from the house – I love that!
