Look forward to seeing a lot of promo work on TV and radio and in magazines. And welcome back to the UK on the 10th. If you fancy poping round for a cuppa, just ring ahead to make sure we're home |

Celebrity big brother starts the week before Meat arrives in UK though so maybe/maybe not. Whatever it is sounds like Meat is expecting us to be cynical of it. Any promotion will be good promotion no matter what it is

I'd like to see another Buzzcocks, QI, or perhaps the two weekend cookery programmes .. the last two don't have a studio audience (which he might prefer), and give quite lengthy exposure .. or even his stated desire to be on Eastenders as Dot's boyfriend Whatever it is .. give us notice and I shall watch, enjoy, and cheer him on Caryl |

The problem with Meat doing a reality show is one false move and he will be forever embedded in many peoples minds as a knob.

[QUOTE=Sarge;475755] Shows like that are one of the reasons why I don't have a TV set anymore.
[QUOTE] Well it would be a first for me to watch it! But I can't help feeling that Meat's too private a person to want to endure CBB for two weeks He's outgoing, gracious and friendly with his fans .. but his private life seems to be something he holds close .. Caryl |

Depends on which channels they're on .. BBC TV doesn't make it's "catch-up" offerings available to those outside the UK .. due to sales deals (real or potential) with those countries they agree not to have them playable the UK, but they make BBC radio available to the world at large. If there are links to shows on other channels you are more likely to able to view them.
There's a number of shows Meat's been on in the USA which haven't been on channels over here I can view, or available in their entirety on the web .. Like House for eg .. Guess it's swings and roundabouts .. but we'll do our best when he's on our side:) Caryl |

Anything but CBB, please...
The indeterminate length of his stay in the UK does make me worry that this might be the case. |

Don't think it's CBB because, as Chris says, it starts before Meat arrives.
Even if it was though, I can hardly think it would be a bad thing as one way or another, it's a hell of a lot of exposure. Wasn't it CBB that that bloke from Take That went on and suddenly they were back on the scene in a big way after being washed up years ago? I'm not a fan of BB/CBB, but if Meat went on it, yeah i'd watch.And i'd hope that the resulting publcity would have a great effect on him. As for what else it could be, who knows No reason to be cynical about doing chat shows, quiz shows, or performances as a guest musical act, so what could it be? I suppose he knows what he's doing, and I look forward to seeing the results. |

It's surprising how little some fans seem to think of him. In my opinion, he hasn't reached a point yet at which he desperately has to grasp at any straw that could provide a little publicity. Someone who's just finished a new record doesn't have to take part in CBB or eat fish eyes in the jungle or whatever stupid things (ex-)celebrities have to do on TV nowadays. I hope the promo will be related to the product he's going to sell and that he doesn't have to make a fool of himself to get media coverage.
I probably wouldn't. If I did I guess I'd either or (or do both). |

I know this is a bit too soon to tell and meat hasnt released any new material for this upcoming album but if this albums released during his time in london do you think he'll do another record signing like he did back in 2007?
