Opinion - Letters to the Editor   

A good read

The article, `A reality show that's elaborately fake' (Dec. 17), on the Channel Four TV show Space Cadets is fascinating. Unaware that they are the victims of a hoax, the poor "cadets" are led to believe that they are in a shuttle floating in space. On "return" to dear earth the "astronauts" would do well to share a hearty laugh with the rest and go home with the prize money. It is good to have bit of a giggle, occasionally, even at ourselves!
