Just when you think reality TV can get no lower English Canal Five sets a new low. Just take a look at the line-up for their new show The Farm (http://www.five.tv/programmes/thefarm/)

Emma B - Google will tell the story
Leggy model Emma B is engaged to East 17 singer Brian Harvey. She left school at 15 to become one of Elite’s top models and has appeared in campaigns for Prada, Chanel, and Jean Paul Gaultier.
The 24-year-old has also presented shows including Babes Behaving Badly for Sky One.

Cicciolina – Italian Ex-porn star/politician
Using a devastating combination of sex and politics, 54-year-old Cicciolina could be a real cat among the chickens on the Farm.
Cicciolina founded La Liste del Sole (the Sun Party) in 1979 and went on to live a dual life as a dedicated human rights activist and campaigner against nuclear energy, while at the same time becoming one of the most successful European porn stars of the ‘80s. She has even appeared on screen with fellow Farmhand Ron Jeremy.

Ron Jeremy – Need no introduction
Adult entertainment star Ron Jeremy has appeared in an astonishing 1,600 adult films since his girlfriend sent a photo of him to Playboy magazine way back in 1978.
Though lacking the good looks and chiselled physique of most porn stars, Ron proved he had talents in ‘other areas’ and went on to become one of porn’s most familiar faces.

Flavor Flav – Public Enemy
William Jonathon Drayton, or Flavor Flav, is a hip hop MC and founder member of Public Enemy.
The band formed in 1982 shortly after Flavor first met Chuck D. Following the release of their debut album Yo, Bum Rush the Show, Public Enemy became one of the most important acts in contemporary music.

Emma Noble – Google will tell the story
Actress and glamour model Emma Noble was spotted by a model scout aged 15. She went on to strut her stuff on catwalks for big name designers like John Rocha and Ghost. The stunning blonde had her pick of the world’s men and she chose to marry John Major’s son James in 1999. Sadly, the couple are now separated

Orville – A plastic duck !!!
Musical sensation Orville has had a number one hit with I Wish I Could Fly and enters the Farm with his friend, Keith Harris, 58

Mike Green – Boy band ”star”
Mancunian model and singer Mikey Green is a member of boy band Phixx.
24-year-old Mikey started his career as the lead singer of a band called Spinning Jenny. He started modelling to fund his college expenses and even found work as a David Beckham lookalike! Nice work if you can get it.

Charlene Tilton – The one and only Lucy Ewing
Film and TV actress Charlene became a household name in the late ‘80s playing Lucy Ewing in cult US soap Dallas. Her on-screen wedding to Mitch Cooper was the second highest rating instalment ever, just behind the famous ‘Who Shot JR?’ episode. It wasn’t her by the way.

Lionel Blair
Veteran entertainer Lionel Blair has been in showbiz for more than five decades. He made his first West End stage appearance when he was 14 and his career has included dancing, TV presenting, acting and directing.
He is best remembered for Give Us A Clue and his numerous appearances on Name That Tune. He recently played the evil Child Catcher in the West End production of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.

Dave Morgan – English C-celeb
Fireman Dave Morgan was once engaged to fiery EastEnders star Jessie Wallace, aka Kat Slater. The pair have a six-month-old daughter, Tallulah, but have recently separated.

Isn't this type of show already on? What makes this a "new low?" I've never seen it, and can't recall the name, but Flavor Flav was on it, IIRC.

Looks like a cross between that Flavor Flav show of C-list celebs and the Paris Hilton show.

This just looks like the international version of that show I don't know the name of. Hell, Ron Jeremy might have even been on it. It's on VH1 or MTV2 or something. Surreal Life? Is that it?

It might be crap but it doesn't beat 'Who's Your Daddy?' or the all time low 'The Littlest Groom'.

Yup, both Ron and Flav were on Surreal Life, though on different seasons...

I assumed this was going to be about the controversy in the same show last year, when David Beckham's (alleged) mistress masturbated a pig.
