I'm not going to watch, vote or engage with their social media. I plan to turn my back the same way he did to teenage musicians. I nothing would make me happier than seeing IACGMOFH veiwing figures collaps because of him.

So, AIBU or not?

Jesus wept there's some snowflakes on MN.

I might watch it, I might not. There's an ON switch on my TV. And there's also an OFF switch.

WeeSleekitCowrinTimrousBeastie · 17/11/2023 13:30

I am not watching cause its totally shite.

There is at least one deeply divisive moron each year designed to drum up debate, controversy and ratings. Nige is this year's.

Well done though OP for making sure that people are talking about it. You are a marketeer's dream.

I quite like NG. I've not watched the show before, but I might this time round.

If you don't want to watch, fair enough. That's what the off button is for.

This. Nigel Farage is hilarious. I'll definitely be watching and i haven't watched it for years

Who are the racists? Anyone in the country who watches this tv show?

No, the people proudly declaring how they never watch it but will absolutely watch it now the bigoted, racist, sexist, and funny man is in it.

He gets paid loads for this because the op et al give him all that brain space to hate him and start threads and want campaigns

Meanwhile person they hate laughs and takes the cash

I don't watch because it's absolute shit and the animal cruelty is appalling.

Farage is no better or worse than many other so-called 'celebs'

This. No need for abject animal cruelty in a game show showcasing a bunch of has been slebs

LlynTegid · 17/11/2023 15:17

I don't watch it anyway. A show well past its sell by date.

I’ll be watching, and voting for him to do every trial 😈😈

Mycatmax · 17/11/2023 15:27

I had been wondering whether or not to watch it this year.

I definitely won't if NF is in it. It wouldn't be good for my blood pressure.

People did that with Matt Hancock, last year and he smashed every trial
It was Hilarious ,Mumsnet and social media were outraged at his success 🤣🤣

qizz · 17/11/2023 15:43

I can honestly say I despise this man. He is being paid £1.5m to appear in this show. He knows full well he will be voted for every trial and this is what he wants because he thinks it will change public perceptions if him / win the public over / shoe a different side of him etc etc. plus he needs the money for his Coutts bank account which they closed because he is a xenophobic fascist because he didn't have enough funds. In my view, he is a Hitler in sheep's clothing and should be imprisoned for inciting hatred and division. He has ruined the U.K. in my opinion. Shame on ITV for giving him this platform. The other people on the show will obviously be random Z-listers nobody has heard of.

travelnorth · 17/11/2023 16:06

Oh God not. Never watch that program regardless of whoever is in it. As for Farage you may end up exhausted on your quest to silence people like him. He is not going anywhere soon.

Noorandapples · 17/11/2023 16:11

I used to love I'm a celeb but I found I actually couldn't watch Matt Hancock or Boy George. I might try this year but have a feeling I'll end up switching it off, I don't really want to see his smarmy frog face.

BashfulClam · 17/11/2023 16:16

i never watch it as it’s absolute shit, hosted by two talentless twats. The environmental damage incurred is abhorrent.

tttigress · 17/11/2023 16:21

He still gets paid whether or not you watch, so I doubt if he is bothered.

Pushkinini · 17/11/2023 17:37

I wont watch it as I don't have mush for a brain.

Maddy70 · 17/11/2023 17:44

I can't bear to look at him or hear his toxic voice. That man has caused me so many problems , I will definitely not be watching because he's in it. Shame because I love it

I can’t see farage being as good as Hancock tho 🤣

EvilElsa · 17/11/2023 17:57

I refuse to watch it anyway due to the animal cruelty. How they are still allowed to use living creatures in "trials" is beyond me, it's disgusting.
Nigel Farage being part of the "celebrities" just reconfirms that I make the right choice by avoiding it like the plague.

MsMcGonagall · 17/11/2023 18:01

I've usually watched it. I won't this year. I'm with you OP.

oviedo · 17/11/2023 19:34

The more that people give him attention ( yes you OP) and vote for him to do tasks the better it will be for him. MH had the opportunity and grasped it eagerly.
And yes the insect cruelty is disgusting- I have no idea how it is allowed.

oviedo · 17/11/2023 19:35

And btw Mumset was split with Hancock. He had many supporters here.

NecklessMumster · 17/11/2023 20:05

I usually watch it. I won't this year as I really really can't bear to look at NF. I might look at it after he gets kicked out as I like Grace Dent

Jellykat · 17/11/2023 20:14

I will watch as i always do, mainly because the thread on here is hilarious..
am hoping he makes a complete tit of himself, or Grace Dent challenges him on a few things!

user96327888 · 17/11/2023 23:04

Feeling to stop watching ITV in its entirety.
