I read about this in Metro this morning. Three of them listed being "scared of ghosts" and one said he'd seen an alien, as far as the paper was concerned. Ok then (?)

Good show, looks good.

Don't mind the presenter myself.

Tomorrow's should be good

Surely this is a contender for the 'scoobynet morons' thread?

You've missed your vocation in life - you should be a TV writer, excellent idea that

LOL This looks great

PG, the teacher is a PE teacher so Id agree with the orginal comment, bunch of idiots.

The selection process was basically picking out gullible over hyped people who wouldnt be thinking straight to pick up any mistakes the film crew make....

I wanna see how they honestly think they can get them in a wooden space ship and pretend its real,

Nobody think the time difference from the UK to Moscow would be the first strange thing they should come across?

Great Idea.

However - Messing with people's hopes & dreams isn't really that good an Idea !

Still - it's better than getting a load of blokes chasing after a Transexual or an orphan looking for her real Dad

I guess as soon as they land keep the pressure up so they don't get a chance to relax. Keep them awake just that little bit too long so they feel tired and assume its jetlag.

The actors really pi$$ed me off - especially the "Rolley" lookalike. Moaning ****!

My biggest quesiton is how do they get around the gravity issue. You have to find some really gullible people to make them believe we've discovered how to create artificial gravity.

The term "Space Cadet" had a totally different connotation when I was still in the RAF.

Theory 2. It's a double hoax, a trick to make the public believe the power of TV lol

Anyone notice the picture of an F14 on the wall behind the commander's desk?

An F14 is an American fighter jet, I wouldn't expect to see a pic of one in Russia!

They may not be able to recognise fighter jets but the British mains sockets on the walls were a bit of a giveaway.
