It's so crappy yet, so compelling. Is it just me who watches it?

I wanted to watch it but forgot it was on! Anything we didn't already know/guess? Was there someone with him? Was it really a dodgy sex-act-gone-wrong? My thoughts were that he may have overdosed after an arguement with Bob but that Paula couldn't accept that he would have left her so went with the accidental death.
My mum knew I had a big crush on him, was very embarrassing when all the details came out and she asked me what had happened Blush

He was full of drugs and booze. No women with him at the time.

I just watched it.

13 sticks of opium and the children chewing on them?? Bob Geldof must've been climbing the walls with worry, no wonder he didn't want Paula to take the kids to AustraliaShock

I suppose the only new thing is that it's unlikely it was auto asphyxiation.

I still don't understand how bob had power over Tiger at that point?

I don't think he did. I thought Bob had agreed to let Paula take his 3 girls to Australia for a period but then withdrew his consent and Paula wouldn't go without them.

Yeah, he just refused to let his kids go.

Well, me and my friend looked at each other every time the mentioned the phone call because they kept saying how he couldn't be without Tiger for Xmas we both assumed she was part of the court case, it was nothing we didn't know. What a sad state of affairs.

He was on tour so Paula wanted to bring them all out to Australia. Bob said no and quite rightly so, he must've been frantic with worry especially after what the family friend said about the kids getting hold of the drugs.


I realise I've already said that earlier. It's hotHmm Blush

It's shocking. I do sometimes wonder if Paula was already into it before she met him. Kylie had a lucky escape.

Into drugs before she met him? I would bet my mortgage on it.

I don't see how you can get to that age and suddenly be into them in a big stylee. Although I could be wrong.

Well you can but she was surrounded by drugs due to her work / life style.

It was soooooooo cringey when she was talking about threesomes and foursomes and everything else she did with him. Imagine your mum on telly spouting that crap ffs!Hmm

I agree, nothing we didnt already know nbut it just shows the disfunctional things that go on. Have recorded the Karen C one. She had the most wonderful voice IMHO

Yes she did. I've recorded it. I don't think they will reveal any surprises though. I thought the Anna Nicole Smith one was interesting. It's a gruesome theme for a show!

The Anna Nicole Smith one was interesting, also the Whitney Houston one, my God she was a walking death sentence with all the crap she was taking!

Anyone see the Karen Carpenter one? Interesting as I knew nothing about her at all.
