Go Back To Where You Came From – Excellent program! The best I’ve seem for a while. Totally engaging. But gee it makes you want to throw things at those Bigots!!

Sensational viewing… though I would love to see a tear from Peter Reith. Everyone else has. C’mon Peter – show us you care.

Twice as many watched Big Brother…. well that just makes sense.
I am disappointed in SBS deciding to go for a the 3 in a row structure for the show. It doesnt allow time for people to talk and generate interest, and, why stack it against big hitters?
A fantastic show, that will suffer due to IMO bad programming.
How are its figures compared to last year?
