It is hard to say why it became so popular, and after the second series it began to get, well, a little boring. 28 series later, their fanbase has, rather understandably, ebbed away, with a few die hard followers still clinging on. Other popular reality TV shows include The Apprentice, Britain's Got Talent, and The X-Factor.
More recently a new kind of television has spawned, known as the structured reality TV show. These type of shows aim to give the public a glimpse of what life is like when living, and being part of a society in a specific area of Britain. So far three of these kind of series have been screened: The Only Way is Essex, Made in Chelsea and Geordie Shores.
A few members of OISE Oxford's staff admit a guilty pleasure in watching Made in Chelsea (AKA MIC). It follows the lives of a group of extremely wealthy twenty-something year olds living the high life in one of central London's most affluent areas. It is undeniably cringeworthy and a lot of the scenarios are quite obviously set up. However, it is worth mentioning that a few of the actors are local Oxford folks, which, as you can imagine, makes it all the more entertaining. Or is that just a bad excuse?
