Iranian Hostage Crisis and Big Brother

Looking at the papers today, the whole thing is being to look like an awful parody of Big Brother.

I'm just waiting for one to pop into the diary room to issue another letter to the British Government.

If they had wanted this to work and to truly influence the British public, they should have tried to copy the old classic, Jim'll Fix It.

"Now then, Now then, what can Jim fix for you?"

"I want to go home and see my children"

"Now Faye, isn't there something that you would like more than that? Something that the show organizers have suggested that is better? Lets have a look at the letter you sent in!"

"Dear Jim, will you fix it for me so that the fascist English pig dog oppressors can be humiliated in front of the world and Arab states?"

Lets hope that this is resolved before the Iranians continue with their charm offensive and launch a phone in number for evictions. I can see them now leaving the BB house, walking the red carpet, quick interview about the other hostages and then wrapping up with a nice jolly public hanging using a crane.
