I'm fascinated by the fact this show inspires such passionate debate and interest; some seem to believe it's a legitimate platform for social issues, others maintain it's manipulative car crash television.

What's your view?

What exactly is the purpose of shows like these? 

Do you think that the individuals portrayed on the show are representative of a social class?  

And why is Jezza always so cross?  

"Do you think that the individuals portrayed on the show are representative of a social class?"

I think the show portrays what is typical of today's youth. Have everything for nothing, spoilt, drink too much, sleep around, get pregnant, and to hell with the consiquences!  

"And why is Jezza always so cross?"

For the same reason as me. Why should the taxpayer go to work every day to support these irresponsible individuals? Like he keeps saying "Put something on the end of it". Most go on there to have the DNA tests paid for.

That the government lets us down and that they think they know best!

I'd love for them to drop their jobs and work with the elderly for a few months and realise whats important to us all in life as its sure not fast cars, sex drugs and rock and roll!

It's about being caring not to those cloe to us but actually working and treating others with a certain amount of respect!

But yes if looked at in the right light, we all know that the government have ripped us off and for the working class we slog our guts off to raise families, to have a nice home and to afford a holiday or a decent car in life. So how can the government keep ripping us off and causing the social problems and issues they do? or feel they can and to be honest within this day and age do we truely need a government in place when in-fact they can't solve the issues which they cause

again sorry for rambling but society sucks when people think they're doing good when their not!!!!
