Big Brother has always chosen its contestants for entertainment value rather than for intellectual debate. This was recently highlighted in a discussion started on the programme by dental therapist Chantelle, who suggested there must be more than one moon in the sky because it changes size and can be seen around the world.
Chantelle had trouble believing that the Moon can be seen in the UK and Australia at the same time, when it takes almost a whole day and night to fly between the countries. Some of the other housemates tried to dissuade her of this view, while others decided not to get involved in the discussion.
