Certainly in terms of the tabloids. Somewhere along the way, with the help of reality series, the line between real celebrity (who might have a sense of privacy and savoir faire about the whole matter) and wannabes who were naive enough to try to ride the wave and come out on top, a line got blurred so now everything is a free-for-all and nobody is sacrosanct.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14002322976940013176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365244084462704027.post-59685038946227110782011-07-12T00:50:23.265+01:002011-07-12T00:50:23.265+01:00Tattie - so agree with you on the three Rs.

I can't cope without having the radio on all day though so I'll just have to suffer through all the new revelations every 10 minutes.<br /><br />ps - the pot table!
