Dead Set

I am someone who finds it very hard to get excited about new TV shows. Usually because they don't live up to the hype or I don't fancy taking an hour out of my social life each week to watch them. But when Charlie Brooker decides to combine Big Brother and zombies, I can't help but grab my groin in excitement.

It's going to be called 'Dead Set' and is going to be shown on E4 in the next few months. From what I can gather, the story is that while Big Brother is going on, a zombie outbreak occurs. Leaving the housemates obvious to what is going on outside (until they get evicted anyway).

Charlie Brooker, the man behind Screenwipe and Nathan Barley, finally looks like he is going to poke fun at reality TV the way it should be done. By watching the contestants get ripped to pieces.
