    Is it me, or was the bloke with big hair in a Give Blood advert? I swear he's the guy who Gordon Ramsey says "If it wasn't for him I'd have died due to a ruptured spleen" or something....

    But that might just mean he's the sort of bloke who does anything he can to get on tv.

    I reckon it's a double-double-bluff...

    They'll get out the shuttle and be like "oh no we're in a warehouse" then Jonny Vaughn will say, "Yes, but the warehouse is ON THE MOON!!!!!"

    I've been in pretty much every building they've had on the program. Oh the fun times I've had at USAF Bentwaters!

    It interests me to think that ppl could be so dumb as to believe this big farce.

    My mate pointed out something in the pub earlier as we were discussing SPace CAdets, um... look at he bushes, none of the "dumbasses" reliese that those type of bushes dont grow in Russia? (cant rememberwhat type it was, but ive got some in the back garden and so has he)

    Could this be a big farce for public I think it could be? Got the ratings tho! Most likly more than Big Brother (god I hate that program!)

    Has anyone noticed that no major paper hasnt claimed to be the official paper of Sapce Cadets and that there is no hidden stories of the contestents or anything juicy come out of it? (Dont think they havnt dont really read newspapers, just see the headlines)

    Regards
    GiGo

    PS he really does like the same guy, his facial stucture looks a tad different tho, rounder jaw than the guy from the advert.

    It is the same guy, probably just an extra.
    The type of people that apply for reality TV shows are so derperate to appear on TV there's a good chance they have been extra's in something.

    Just been a doing a quick search on google on the actors names, Ryan McBride is indeed an actor like other ppl have said he is the guy on the Give Blood advert.

    Also Keri Hassett is an actress she has been an extra in programs in the past heres a link: http://www.performersdirectory.co.uk/extrasgirls.html
    7th row down on the left.

    I do recon its a big farce FOR USE. OR that channel 4 are playing a prank on the 3 now 2 actors but it seems an expensive prank for 2 ppl.

    Its got to be a farce for us, no ones that stupid.

    I think that C4 might be giving us clues that its a farce as I just saw the Give Blood Advert on 10mins ago.

    Some of them are actors, like 3 of them.

    They are placed there to convince the others aswell.

    The rest are normal public.

    tbh ive watched a few episodes and its bloody awful.
    far too boring from what ive seen, they could have made an hour special of all the bits so far not a stupid 'series' from it all.

    yeh we know that tibby, but even the people that arn't supposed to be actors on there seem to be, i.e. the guy from the give blood advert, he wasn't supposed to be an actor but he ovbiously is.

    He was telling the truth. If you think about it, it kinda makes sense.
    I mean, if I produced the Give Blood ad, I wouldn't want to use actors - just think if a viewer saw that ad and realised they'd seen the supposed 'donor' on something else (TV show, another ad etc)...they'd probably be thinking something along the lines of "this aint real, he's an actor, I remember seeing him in <insert ad/TV show here>. He didn't give blood so why should I?"

    Imagine say, if you saw one of the kids from the Child Cruelty ad appearing in a MacDonald's ad...it'd totally ruin the seriousness...

    Am I making sense?
